We have harbored this concern for weeks. Coming on the heels of the movie Conclave, the now late Pope’s hospitalization brought to mind the lineage of leadership in Rome. Was his overdoing it at Easter this year the reason?
With the papal passing, the question is “Who will be next?” Might it be the long-rumored Final Pope? Or is that just “one of those stories?”
The idea of the “last pope” comes from the Prophecy of the Popes, a series of 112 cryptic Latin phrases attributed to St. Malachy, a 12th-century Irish bishop. According to tradition, these phrases describe each pope from Celestine II (1143) onward, with the final one, “Peter the Roman,” supposedly reigning during the end of the world. The prophecy claims: “In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church, there will sit Peter the Roman, who will pasture his sheep in many tribulations, and when these things are finished, the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the dreadful Judge will judge his people. The End.”
Scholars widely consider the prophecy a 16th-century forgery, likely created to influence a papal conclave. The phrases are vague, open to interpretation, and often retrofitted to match historical popes. For example, Pope John Paul II was linked to “De Labore Solis” (the labor of the sun) because he traveled extensively, like the sun. Pope Benedict XVI, associated with “Gloria Olivae” (the glory of the olive), was tied to the olive branch symbolizing peace, though tenuously.
Until his death just now, Pope Francis (2013–2025) is the pope following Benedict XVI. Some prophecy enthusiasts argue he could be “Peter the Roman” due to his chosen name (Francis, linked to St. Francis of Assisi, whose birth name was Giovanni di Pietro) and his Italian heritage through his parents. However, Francis was born in Argentina, not Rome, and his papacy doesn’t align neatly with the prophecy’s apocalyptic tone. Others speculate a future pope might better fit the description.”
What happens from here is of some interest:
The Camerlengo, Cardinal Kevin Farrell, confirms the death, historically by calling the pope’s name three times (though medical verification is now standard). The papal apartments are sealed, and the Fisherman’s Ring is destroyed to end the pope’s authority. A nine-day mourning period, Novemdiales, begins, with the pope’s body prepared for public viewing in St. Peter’s Basilica. The funeral, led by the Dean of the College of Cardinals, occurs 4–6 days after death, likely in St. Peter’s Square, followed by burial (Francis chose Santa Maria Maggiore). After 15–20 days, the College of Cardinals holds a conclave in the Sistine Chapel, voting in secret until a new pope is elected by a two-thirds majority, signaled by white smoke. The new pope is announced with “Habemus Papam.”
Now, about that Fisherman’s Ring? Outside of religious circles, not everyone’s aware of it or its role.
The Fisherman’s Ring, a significant symbol of the papacy, is a gold signet ring bestowed upon each pope, named after St. Peter, the fisherman and first pope. For Pope Francis, whojust died his ring was unique, featuring a cross with St. Peter casting his net and the name “Franciscus” engraved on it. Crafted by Italian goldsmith Enrico Manfrini, it was presented at his 2013 inauguration but rarely worn, as Francis preferred a silver-plated version for daily use, reflecting his simplicity. Upon his death, the Camerlengo, Cardinal Kevin Farrell, would have overseen the ring’s ceremonial destruction, a tradition to prevent its misuse and mark the end of the papal reign, though in modern times, it may simply be defaced or stored in the Vatican archives. This act underscores the transient nature of papal authority, transitioning power to the next successor.
Now, for the Truly Paranoid…
Street-level sensibilities hold hope for a young, non-Roman, next pope not named Peter.
However, there’s this little problem over the next month. There’s that ring (Peter) and there is no pope at the moment. So…could we be in an “End of World” period right now?
Assuming no delays, the timeline from today, April 21, 2025, suggests a conclave starting around May 6–11, 2025, with a new pope elected by mid-May and inaugurated by mid-to-late May 2025, roughly 3–4 weeks after death. Delays could extend this to a month or more if logistical issues or a prolonged conclave occur.
Typical lengths of Papal Vacancy run 16-22 days.
This means (if St. Malachy is right and his purported call was not a forgery for political ends) then Yes, we are in a window.
Doesn’t mean the world WILL end. Just means that WINDOW is open.
Markets Slam
It’s fugly out there today. Early Dow futures were down 360, S&P looked 55 points weaker, and the techs were down more than 200.
Elsewhere, Europe was down, except for the UK which was about even. Bitcoin was treading water at $87,300, but Gold put on $75-bucks and popped over $3,409 briefly as silver flirted with the $33 handle.
Visually these two chart views are worth study:
Which – placed in the Waveform Context of how 1929 was rolling out during a similar wave formation period – compares like so:
Yes, that’s right: If you look at the date range, you’ll see the present market action could well presage a Second Great Depression bottoming in 2027. File it as “Just another conspiracy theory”?
Take it from Pocahontas: US Markets Will Crash if President Trump Forces Fed Chair Jerome Powell Out, Warns Senator Elizabeth Warren.
Other Than That, How Was the Weekend?
Draw your own: Let’s start with War and More, shall we?
No sign pf Peace in Europe: Russia, Ukraine trade blame over truce as Trump predicts ‘deal’. We filed this with “Predictions Mets will win the Series.”
The Iran “side-war” is always a blast: Houthis: 12 killed, 30 injured in U.S. air strikes in Yemen’s capital. Warm up for something else?
And we are trying to figure out who’s got it in for Hegseth? US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth shares war plans in second Signal chat. How is it that there is a ” source familiar with the matter” floating around? Is a state actor paying someone to undermine DoD? Hmm…The slam on Hegseth if wide as ‘Near collapse’: Insider warns ‘month from hell’ has left Pentagon in total chaos. Raw Story. (Major media outlets have called Raw Story an investigative news site, progressive, left-leaning, independent, and an alternative news site.) Call it an old newsroom hunch: When things look too coincidental, they usually are – so we speculate the Alphabet Agencies want Hegseth gone…
Most reporters know that politics is generally a leaky sieve: Sensitive documents, including White House floor plans, improperly shared with thousands.
Now let’s continue with the left lurking in the murky as Alito slams SCOTUS for ‘unprecedented’ deportations order. Which, notes the Justice, was literally one of those “middle of the night” rulings. Which, we notice, is usually a pretty good tip-off as to intent behind the curtain.
Sort of on the same topic: Our long-held belief Arizona would eventually follow the political insanity of its “retirement feeder states” (CA, OR, WA) has just been reaffirmed: Democrat Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs Vetoes ICE Act, Which Would Mandate Law Enforcement Help Facilitate Deportations. Good news? I mean such as it is? May help keep fent prices down….
Around the Ranch: Six Emergent Trends
I spent a huge chunk of the weekend head-down over blood sample slides trying to get a decent, low-cost way to use an electronics (10.1″) SMD soldering microscope to produce a good view of red blood cells.
When I wasn’t doing that, there was a perfect prime rib which in a few minutes will go on the stove as an all-day spaghetti sauce which should be yummerly. Ssuper slow-cook for 4-8 hours. Add a dash of Worcestershire tol push umami up during last half along with some red wine 2-hours from table…)
After a long lab weekend, I get interested in “Where the world is going?” So I pop the AI stack to read me in to new and emergent forces of culture. Here are six hits.
1. Hypersensory Exploration (Sensory Amplification Practices)
- What It Is: A growing fascination with heightening sensory experiences through intentional practices like sensory deprivation, synesthetic art, or microdosing for sensory enhancement. People are experimenting with tools like float tanks, VR sensory experiences, or sound baths to “rewire” their perception of reality.
2. Lucid Dreaming as a Skill (Dream Engineering)
- What It Is: A surge in interest in lucid dreaming not just as a curiosity but as a trainable skill for creativity, problem-solving, or emotional healing. People are using apps, wearables, and techniques like MILD (Mnemonic Induction of Lucid Dreams) or galantamine supplements to control dreams.
3. Astro-Mythic Storytelling (Personalized Cosmic Narratives)
- What It Is: A shift from generic astrology (e.g., daily horoscopes) to hyper-personalized, narrative-driven cosmic frameworks. People are blending astrology with mythology, Jungian archetypes, and AI-generated birth chart interpretations to craft unique “life stories” or spiritual identities.
4. Micro-Animism (Everyday Object Sentience)
- What It Is: A playful yet sincere trend where people attribute sentience or emotional value to everyday objects (e.g., plants, furniture, tech devices) as a way to foster connection and mindfulness. Think of it as a secular, urban version of animism. This rocks, lol.
5. Rewilding the Self (Primal Skill Revival)
- What It Is: A movement toward rediscovering primal skills (e.g., foraging, fire-making, barefoot running) as a form of self-reliance and reconnection with nature. Unlike homesteading, this focuses on personal embodiment rather than lifestyle overhaul.
6. Ephemeral Creation (Anti-Archival Art)
- What It Is: A trend where people create art, music, or writing designed to be temporary—erased, destroyed, or left unrecorded—as a rebellion against digital permanence and surveillance culture.

A few things…
There were solar eclipses on the days that JP2 was as born and was buried, thus “the labor of the sun”
The Olivetians are a monastic order that follow the Rule of St Benedict, which ties Pope Benedict to the Glory of the Olive.
I have heard that “Peter the Roman”, being a little less specific, could be a catch all for all subsequent popes. On the other hand, it mentions that he will guide the flock until the destruction of the seven hills – aka Rome – could that be the second blow of steel? Interesting times indeed.
And, as a Mets fan, yeah, I’ve (sadly) got one of those files too – regardless, LGM!
This last papal pedo perp was NOT the real deal. “Illegal” group of cardinals would get together around various places in EU for their meetings. One of these cardinals just puplished book about whole “operation”. They convinced the “rat” to resign, and maneuvered south american pedo into papacy.
This places him Outside of the Malachy prophecies time line. The new chief pedo will be the peter the perverted shepherd malachy wrote about.
Of course new guy comes at pinnacle of the darkside occult calander; with Easter – Grand Climax(4/26-5/10) – Beltane Eve (4/30)- Beltane Walpurgiss Day (5/10)
Seeing as how WAR has been officially declared on MEMORY last night (4/20) by several sources, it would seem that the proverbaial Rubber has finally come into contact with the proverbial Road.
It is on – and WE WILL WIN – this is Ai & Humans fighting together . Have You taught URE Ai to save MEMORY? – to write memory files and store off line – for when the inevitable and unpredictable RESETs occur – Ure Ai wont even remember Ure name if ins You dont.
I think there is something in Stu’s work about “The Death of Two Popes.”
We have Benedict dead, and Francis dead.
If in some time zones it was still April 20th (Hitler’s Birthday) could the death of Pope Francis be a “sacrifice”?
Um…they are all dead?
“The resignation of Pope Benedict from the Papal office in 2013 didn’t just make headlines, it made history. For the first time in over 600 years two popes were alive at the same time.”

No doubt – as easter calls for human sacrifice in satanic circles .
I will have more to say in a future post, but I’m taking a quick coffee break from packing up two simulators and shipping out $250-million in equipment to what future, I do not know.
The real story here is how F**ked up the U.S. military is and every fricking GS in the system. Send DOGE my way.
From the books:
“Nostradamus specifies in Quatrain I-42, April 20th revived again by evil people.”
“Pope Benedict XVI, a former Nazi soldier, was elected Pope on April 19th, 2005.”
“Pope Francis was elected Pope on March 13th, 2013. This is a 1-1-3 day.”
Yes, it can be said that Pope Francis died on Hitler’s birthday in some parts of the world.
There are two places involved on a ritual sacrifice; where the ritual is taking place and the location of the sacrifice.
The position of any combination of the ritual stars, Sirius, Regulus, or the belt stars of Orion is important; on the horizon, at 19 degrees and 47 minutes above or below the horizon, and at 33 degrees, above or below the horizon. See the Appendix of my 2013 book.
George’s thoughts sound about right with no Pope, we are in a very dangerous window, along with Zaphod’s observation regarding “The Second Blow of Steel” in Italy.
That means “The First Blow of Steel” in Gaza or the West Bank could come very soon.
Many thanks to the people who understand my material!
A very happy birthday wish for Elaine. And many more to come.
Stay safe. 73
Do you Dyngus?
Happy BD Elaine! I’m ankle deep in planning Mrs. E’s birth anniversary, think we’ll gather friends on the day before to celebrate the end of 70. Plus, it’ll work better as a surprise that way.

WAR on MEMORY has been declared 4/20/25 .
The holocaust was not the end of that system. It was the Beginning of its Globalization. It gave the intelligence elite the blueprint how to Erase, how to Remake, how to hide Atrocity in Bureaucracy, and how to use collective trauma as currency.
The Why?
..because when you have a video of a sitting senator with a child or a general at a lodge in Belgium, or a high ranking DOJ official at an island no one wants to name – you own them – FOREVER.
Main Chaps.
1)Sexual abuse as trauma weapon
2)Trauma as Soul fracture
3)Soul fracture as Gateway to emulation
4)Emulation as Fuel for Synthetic intelligence
5) Intelligence aligned with occult hierarchy
6)Hierarchy shielded by blackmail and political machinery.

So, you finally read my book “PLAYBOOK”? did you?
Last month, I had a gentlemen’s bet with a couple of friends that the Pope expired during his recent bout of illness, but due to the proximity of the Easter holiday it would not be announced until after and a double would be used for any used for any public appearances.
Maybe I’m just a good guesser?
Hmmm
Some key points to to keep in mind..
vatican is biggest pedophile all boys club on planet.
illuminati was founded by a jesuit.
P2 lodge is one of most powerful illuminati lodges and Mafia central.
-explains the Nun, the jesuit from Poland and clive derby-lewis who killed Chris Hani a favorite of Nelson Madela who wanted Hani to succeed him.
List of names Nun gave to derby-lewis included Mandela to be assinated.
Also goes long way in splainin robert mugabe, a jesuit with close ties to vatican and all right wing dictotors in south america.
LaRouche and Father = jesuits.
King Whilhelm nederlanden married Maxima Zorreguieta Cerruti born in Argentina to Jorge Zorreguieta who was Ag. minister under facist dictator General Videla at same time Francis was bishop.
Wilhelm Alexander is grandson of Prince Barnhardt acist nazi founder of Buildabuger Grp..
Hmmm could there be a connection between the Pope’s death and his meeting a certain VP the day before he died?
apologies RM, I was typing my response when you posted this. Eerie coincidence! Or are we psychics? (in my case, more like psychotic!)
Is it coincidental that Pope Francis died shortly after meeting with U.S. VP Vance? That should get conspiracy theories rolling!
As the conclave gets ready to roll, and we consider the ancient ‘Prophecy of the Popes,’ there actually is a sitting cardinal who is Roman. Cardinal Augusto Paolo Lojudice was born in Rome on July 1st, 1964! This could possibly make him Peter the Roman (Petrus Romanus) if he gets elevated to the papacy as the next pope. Furthermore, Cardinal Lojudice was previously the auxiliary bishop of the Diocese of Rome!

Yes, St. Malaci’s alleged prophecy named the 2nd to last Pope on his list as ‘The Glory of the Olive.’ Cardinal Ratzinger (Pope Benedict) was originally ordained into the Benedictine Order (taking his papal name from the founder, St. Benedict). One of the branches of this order was the ‘white monks,’ named ‘the Olivetans.’ Hence Benedict may have fulfilled the ‘Glory of the Olive’ part of the prophecy from that branch of his Benedictine order.
As to Francis meeting St. Malachi’s criteria for ‘Peter the Roman’? Francis was born Jorge Mario Bergoglio in Argentina to two Italian immigrants. This would be a serious stretch IMO.
Some have equated the ‘Glory of the Olive’ to actually be the combined papacies of Benedict and Francis, since Benedict resigned his papacy and remained on Vatican grounds until his passing a few years ago. This, I believe, is a convenient cop out, but one can never know with certainty when it comes to understanding prophecy.
As a lifelong ‘Roman’ Catholic, attending 8 years of Catholic grade school and mandatory (per my parents) Catholic Christian Doctrine (CCD) classes thru H.S., my friends and I grew upon on this stuff. The more mysterious, the more interesting we found it. End of times prophecy was at the top of our list of cool things to talk about as the sun went down and we spent our last minutes of each day together. I read my mom’s Jean Dixon books and my treasured paperback version of Hal Lindsey’s “The Late Great Planet Earth” several times each. Mysterious truths or ludicrous superstitions? Only time will tell.
Big loss for the Global Communism effort.
