Archon of the Golden Dawn unveils invisible company

A self-styled “Archon Basilius” of the Canadian-based Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, Martin Thibeault, has been showing off to his Facebook followers with what look like front-cover triumphs on the world’s most prominent business magazines.

There’s just one tiny hiccup: the "covers" are adverts.

Thibeault proudly posted an image of himself on the cover of Forbes Australia, calling it “by far my greatest accomplishment.” Which is quite a statement from a man who “crossed the abyss” in his magical order.

A quick look at his personal website reveals 14 magazine covers allegedly featuring him as one of the “top disruptors of the blockchain industry.” It all looks glossy, billionaire, and “please believe I’m a super entrepreneur.”

So, we dug further. The articles attached to those flashy covers all tell the same heartwarming tale: Thibeault used to be a shy carpenter (yes, like Jesus), failed twice in brick-and-mortar businesses, but somehow still became the mastermind of a billion-dollar blockchain empire. All this while giving the same heroic thumbs-up in every photo, which is something no serious magazine has allowed since 1978.

Then the magic spell broke. The “articles” were not articles at all. They were paid press releases, bought and placed through PR agencies. Same story, pictures, and wording, with a dramatic journey from nails and wood to visionary blockchain general. Some of them even helpfully include his email address, because, of course, that’s how global CEOs do media.

Not even one mentions his company's name, lists a corporate registration number, a business address, a revenue figure, a product, or anything resembling a normal business fact. The closest we get is vague phrases like “a global conglomerate” and “major networking platform,” which, in MLM-speak, usually mean “someone once gave me an affiliate link.”

Oddly, none of these business publications explain what blockchain is, which is quite impressive for finance journalism (or a press release). For the record, blockchain is just a glorified shared spreadsheet running across lots of computers, so nobody can sneak in and change the numbers without everyone noticing. Even that basic explanation is too advanced for Thibeault’s glowing profiles.

We checked LinkedIn in case his empire was listed there. It was not. What was there was a job description so vague it could mean anything from crypto consultant to part-time life coach. He has, apparently, been a “Global Leader” since 2013. Of what, no one knows. Also missing is any sign of the “thousands” of people he supposedly “hired.” Strange, because usually, when a firm hires thousands, someone somewhere pays tax on them.

We spoke to an actual blockchain pioneer, who remembers when the industry consisted of about 17 people and two laptops. He had never heard of Thibeault, and he would have done so if the timeline was correct.

“It reads like marketing nonsense to me,” he said, before returning to actual work.

Thibeault does list himself as founder of a Dubai design company with “100 staff worldwide,” although the company’s website appears blissfully unaware of his existence: an innocent oversight, no doubt.

There is a theatrical subplot. In several articles, Thibeault claims he was too shy to speak in public. In another, he markets himself as a motivational speaker. Sources also say he is a trained martial artist in aggressive combat styles, which is not usually the life path of a man frightened of a microphone.

What is missing here is a confirmed company, verified blockchain credentials, and registry records. Just a stack of paid mock-magazine covers that are doing all the heavy lifting.

Our legal expert wants us to point out that we are not saying that Thibeault is not stonkingly rich or does not have a company. If he wants people to believe he got that way by running a blockchain advisory company, we need to see more proof. There are many ways a person can get rich in this world without owning a company or being a business success story.

Spectral Evidence conference organiser tells Palestinians to eat each other

Wiccan warlock Christian Day [pictured] has caused disgust and outrage after telling starving Palestinians to turn cannibal.   The twisted occultist made the shocking comment on Facebook after someone posted: “Palestinian kids are out of food and the world is doing nothing.” Day sneered back: “They can always dine on one another. I’m surprised they haven’t eaten the hostages yet.”   Day is already notorious. He was shunned by a large number of covens who felt that the world needed to be protected from his antics. These range from trolling to nasty, abusive posts   Despite being cast out, Day continues to flog his Spectral Evidence convention, an online occult jamboree boasting 75 lectures.  Day is alleged to have doxed fellow pagans, handing their names and addresses to a far-right Christian church. Though he hurriedly deleted the details, the damage was done, and extremists were effectively given a hit list.  Critics say he is courting controversy...

Witch Queen backs “Abusive Priest” as fury erupts in Wiccan circles

Co-founder of Alexandrian Witchcraft and Witch Queen Maxine Sanders has thrown petrol on an already blazing row in the occult world after publicly defending Christian Day, a notorious witch with a rap sheet of scandals longer than most people’s Book of Shadows . Day, who runs the online  Spectral Evidence shin-dig, has already hit headlines for all the wrong reasons. Most recently , he suggested Palestinians should be “eating their children” and has been dragged through court accused of elder abuse; he has also been slammed for stalking, racism and general nastiness.   Yet instead of keeping her distance, Sanders shocked many by leaping to his defence in a Facebook post, even mocking one of his accusers and brushing the whole saga off as little more than community drama. She wrote a lengthy post calling the criticism “spectacle dressed up as accountability.” She singled out one of Day’s alleged victims, using the mocking nickname “Spikey,” and accused him of hypocris...

Occult book boss nicked my sigils

NOTED Golden Dawn scholar Olen Rush has accused Kerubim Press chief Dean Wilson [AKA  Frater Yechidah] of stealing his research on tarot sigils and trying to pass it off as his own mystical revelation. Rush, author of A Short Treatise on the Sigils of the Scales , claims Wilson half inched his documented work on how Golden Dawn “King” and “Queen” court cards combine to form “Prince Sigils”. Rush insists the material, first published in 2010, was later dressed up by Wilson as if it had been spiritually revealed to him. Rush says the proof lies in old blog posts and emails from 2012 where Wilson not only praised his book but asked permission to link to it. He accuses Wilson of now denying ever having read the work while presenting its core ideas as his own. “He had the audacity to suggest we compare findings when he had already borrowed mine,” Rush said. The sigils are an obscure part of the Golden Dawn tradition, and Rush is the expert. Golden Dawn insiders note that Rush’s ...
