Cassiopaea Cult

Who are The Cassiopaeans?
by Jay Weidner and Vincent Bridges

In Dr. Richard Sauder’s recent article Event Horizon: Incoming and Fast! (see http://www.rense.com/general38/eventhorizon.htm) reference is made to an unusual group of folks known as The Cassiopaeans. In his discussion of the current ills of our society, he mentions two sources of analysis that are, as he says, “interesting.” One source is Mike Ruppert’s From the Wilderness, a former LAPD officer who stumbled onto the CIA’s drug operation and since 9/11 has become an outspoken critic of the Bush administration, and the other is The Cassiopaean’s website.

The two sites do look somewhat similar, blogger type news story entries with books and videos for sale. But the similarity stops at the surface. Mr. Ruppert’s site is significant for its open and honest discussions of real political and social issues. The Cassiopaeans are definitely a horse of another color, one apparently not from around here… literally.

Dr. Sauder’s own works displays the same almost schizoid divisions. On the one hand is apparently solid research, well documented and on serious topics, and on the other hand there is the whole bizarre carnival of UFO disinformation, and these extremes are blended together to make a tapioca of plausibility that is acceptable as long as no one looks to deeply into things such as sources.

Here’s what Dr. Sauder had to say:

“I further believe that the Cassiopaeans’ analysis begins to explore some of the deeper, core issues at play. Are the Cassiopaeans correct in every last jot and tittle of what they say? I very strongly doubt it. But the value I see in the issues they raise is that they raise the issues to begin with. Precious few people are even talking about most of the things the Cassiopaeans discuss.

“The Cassiopaeans (whoever or whatever they really are) may be part of a cosmic (or not so cosmic) intelligence plan that is fiendishly insidious and devious — or they may equally be, as they say, a benevolent force who intend to lend a helping hand to a troubled planet, populated by a severely, violently dysfunctional species (Earth humans). I hope it is the latter, but I cannot categorically exclude the former, if the stakes are as high as the Cassiopaeans allege that they are.

“As I understand it, the Cassiopaeans allege that Earth is a crucial battlefield in a mighty war that has raged across the galaxy, covering vast stretches of time and space and consciousness. The current Earth scene, according to them, has actors both seen and unseen, known and unknown, and overlapping levels of strategy and mighty political and spiritual agendas with tremendous implications for the human race and planet Earth and many other beings and planets elsewhere in the galaxy, and even in other dimensions.”

Let us give Dr. Sauder credit here for not entirely swallowing the Cassiopaean party line. However, even with his serious disclaimer, “…part of a cosmic (or not so cosmic) intelligence plan that is fiendishly insidious and devious…” Dr. Sauder still finds the scenario they present compelling enough to comment on, indeed even to preach from as one more scary vision against which we must react. One must ask: why would anyone, who strongly suspected a source of being disinformation, go right ahead and use it over such a disclaimer?

Perhaps Dr. Sauder is alerting his reader to this, as he says “insidious and devious” intelligence operation, as a way to suggest the direction the wind is blowing. Perhaps the next step is to promote a very “us versus them” paranoid outer space cult with radical political opinions as a way to siphon off and completely discredit and marginalize any serious researcher looking into the topics the Cassiopaeans have co-opted and twisted beyond recognition. And Dr. Sauder, at the conclusion of his article, directs the reader to the “organizations and websites that I have mentioned above” as a way to begin their own journey “towards personal and planetary freedom.” Perhaps, in his way, Dr. Sauder is actually trying to promote the Cassiopaean view of reality.

At any rate, the curious will look up their site. What they will see, if they look closely, is a very clever confidence game, the old wine of Madame Blavatsky in the new bottle of radical politics and pseudo-science. It is the new bottle, and its shiny label endorsements, that the website presents, but when the vintage Cassiopaeans are uncorked, the stale and rancid smell of spiritualism, egoism and covert operations is almost overpowering.

Let’s start with the spiritualism. The Cassiopaeans are supposedly discarnate intelligences in something called “sixth density” that are riding a “wave” of some kind towards us through inter-density space/time, or something similar. The pseudo-science babble is almost impenetrable, for instance a density is not a dimension, although densities have dimensions, and this is not surprising given that the information was “channelled” via the use of a spirit or ouiji board.

Even among folks who take such things seriously, the spirit board has a bad reputation. It is thought of as primarily a way for “lower astral shells” to drain off living energy by playing mind games with those who use them. The Spiritualist Church, which still exists and has enclaves around the country, specifically states that no “higher spirit guides” have been known to use the board, and therefore forbids its practitioners from using it generally. Now, Spiritualists are not averse to disincarnate beings, they are in fact their stock in trade, so if they have a problem with a spirit board, as a basic instrument, then it might be prudent to heed their warning.

Yet, we find that the long history of the Cassiopaean communication was made by means of a ouiji board. That fact alone is enough to make the knowledgeable researcher very suspicious. And since the ouiji board is open to both cheating and possession by “lower astral shells,” then the question becomes the character of the person, or persons, whose hands were involved in the “readings.” The slightest hint of mental instability or moral slackness should alert us to serious problems with the received information. Garbage in, garbage out is a valuable rule.

As for the egoism, it is subtle, but all pervasive throughout the Cassiopaean material. And this hint of absolute rightness provides our first clue to the problems of character that is so important in such a paranormal exchange. The Cassiopaeans are actually just the projected unconscious fantasies of the real voice of Cassiopaea, one Laura Knight-Martin-Jadczyk. Reading even the heavily edited transcripts of the Cassiopaean sessions available on the website provides ample evidence of Ms. Knight-Martin-Jadczyk’s self-absorbed ego involvement, her love freewheeling newage scams, and her ardent desire to cash in on her connection to the Cassiopaeans. In her other even more voluminous autobiographical writings, we find more evidence of a seriously disturbed individual.

Let’s look at a few of the more prominent examples:

1. Several suicide attempts as a child and a history that includes some possible abuse and a great deal of instability in her family life. (See Amazing Grace and The St Pete Times article The Exorcist in Love for more details.)

2. A prosecution for attempted murder at age 18 under very suspicious circumstances, including the fact that she has changed the public version of the story several times now. (See the Tallahassee article on the Cassiopaean site.)

3. Several children out of wedlock and by different fathers, and a long history of SSI and insurance scams. (See Amazing Grace on the Cassiopaean website for details.)

4. Extreme delusional behaviour - she believed her husband was an alien plant sent to spy on her - resulting the break-up of her marriage. (See Exorcist in Love for details.)

By the time Ms. Knight-Martin-Jadczyk came to believe that her then husband, Lewis Martin, was an alien robot from 4th density, her life had been completely consumed by the Cassiopaeans. It seems that during her search for a good newage scam - she tried various mail-order scams and such things as Past-Life Therapy and Spirit Release Exorcisms and other obscure forms of pseudo-hypnotic modalities - she stumbled onto another lost soul, one “Frank Scott” to give him his official pseudonym. Between them, they tried channelling, and soon settled, for various reasons, on the ouiji board. Things progress rapidly from there. Soon, Ms. Knight and “Frank” were hitting the UFO conventions, spreading the word. (See various chapters in Amazing Grace and Adventures for details.)

That’s where Tom French found her, the author of the Exorcist in Love article. He followed her around for years, through her divorce and her marriage to Ark, more on that in a moment. When he finally wrote the article, he was as conflicted as he had been in the beginning. Ms. Knight was sincere, and she made good copy, and in the end he decided not to get a psychiatric evaluation on her. If he had, her subsequent career might have been very different. She might have gotten help before the covert operation began.

In the spring of 1997 Polish physicist Dr. Arkadiusz Jadczyk somewhat mysteriously arrived on the scene after a whirlwind courtship with Ms Knight-Martin on the web. Dr. Jadczyk had a long history as a high-energy physicist working for various branches of the Polish government and observing the other research centers in Europe. This doesn’t quite make him a spy, see his CV on the Cassiopaean website, but what happened after he met Ms. Knight-Martin does make one wonder.

Dr. Jadcyzk was inconveniently already married, as was Ms. Knight-Martin at that point, and at first he found it impossible to arrange a visit to the States. Suddenly, a grant arrived, from the George Soros Foundation by way of the Central European University, and after a brief visit to the CEU (where apparently some kind of identity theft occurred, see Adventures with the Cassiopeans in the Matrix Part 18 for details), Dr. Ark arrived in Florida. Apparently it wasn’t love at first sight, but Dr. Ark quickly found out that whatever deal he had made with whatever devil, he was about to be held to account.

He found that both his job, at the University of Wroclow, and his marriage were gone, along with every dime of savings he had. Dr. Ark, literally, had no choice but to return to the States and his romance with Ms. Knight-Martin and the Cassiopaeans. They got married, and for a while Dr. Ark did a little teaching and some consulting, until his clearance was pulled and the University of Florida discovered his proclivity for ouiji aliens and anti-gravity devices. After that, it was full time work on the Cassiopaean Cult. (See Adventures with the Cassiopeans in the Matrix Part 19 for details.)

With Dr. Ark’s skilful guidance, what once was a simple tea and trances con game became a worldwide conspiracy movement. The changes were implemented slowly and in stages, but the end result was unmistakable. As even Dr. Sauder, whom the Cassiopaeans love to quote, commented, they appear to be a very clever and sophisticated, “insidious and devious,” intelligence operation. With even a little awareness of Dr. Ark’s background, and it is all on the website in various places, it becomes apparent that the Cassiopaeans may have started out harmless, but they have been hi-jacked and co-opted by some very complex intelligence operation.

The early sessions with the Cassiopaeans, and even after Dr. Ark arrived, show no political slant at all beyond the usual space reptoid hysteria du jour. “Frank Scott” the original other pair of hands on the ouiji board departed in 2000, and for a while the Cassiopaeans seemed to be adrift. Then Dr. Ark became the other half of the ouiji duo, and things began to change quickly. Spies and evil “psychopaths” were discovered in the group, and Stalin-esque purges were conducted. Campaigns began against other researchers, mostly those whose work the Cassiopaeans seemed fond of appropriating, and soon even allegations of murder and black ops followed. By September 11, 2001, the Cassiopaeans were poised on the verge of the big time.

Their newfound radicalism grew out of old habits, such as Dr. Ark’s anti-Semitism and Ms. Knight-Martin-Jadcyzk’s narcissistic persecution complexes, projected outward onto a global stage. It found an audience, hiding its deeply flawed assumptions beneath a veneer of anti-Americanism and radicalism that appeal to many in this turbulent era. The Cassiopaeans offer a way to make sense of complex problems, a way to throw the blame for one’s shortcomings on to those evil “psychopaths” in charge of everyone’s life. And of course, there is no way to beat these evil aliens, except to read and study the teachings of the Cassiopaeans.

The question of course is why? Why would any intelligence operation be interested in such drivel?

The answer lies in the way Dr. Sauder mixed his reference to Mike Ruppert with the Cassiopaeans. By putting Ruppert on the same level, “interesting,” as the Cassiopaeans, you diminish the value of one, Ruppert, while inflating the value of the other, the Cassiopaeans. Could this be accidental? Hardly…

If all sources have the same value - honest reporting and investigation equals ouiji board channelling - then we have abolished all rules of reason and sanity. Every imagining can be true if you get someone else to believe it is true…In that scenario the clever psychic manipulators win out every time. This is the essence of mind control; nothing is false, everything is true; everything is false, nothing is true, until only the programmer can be relied upon for “truth.” In the world of the Cassiopaeans, only the inner circle, Ms. Knight-Martin-Jadcyzk and her cronies, have a lock on “truth” and they dole it out as needed to keep the crowd coming back for more.

But, and here’s the point, if all sources are the same, and some are obviously false, then no source can be trusted. Mike Rupert’s facts become as speculative as the ravings of the Cassiopaeans. And when the Cassiopaeans are finally exposed for what they are, a fraud and an intelligence operation, then their demise can be used to point at other radicals and independent researchers and say: “See, told you they were all full of it. Just a bunch of crazies spouting off nonsense…”
