Hollow Echoes From A Wannabe: Fork Nan Pwen


It is time I open up about the recent online posts by a former member of the House of Jean Kent, namely Fork Nan Pwen a.k.a. Michael "Rocky" Geis.

First of all, Jean dismissed Fork from our beloved House sometime in June of 2022. I don’t recall the exact date although I believe Jean called me on either the 10th or 11th and told me in the late afternoon and said he decided Fork’s membership in our House was over and that Fork could no longer work Guinen (re: holy) but would be now be labeled a Boko. This means Fork can  only access the LWA through the Left hand, which requires Makaya (re: blood). Thus why Fork was forced to seek power elsewhere, presumably with some blood oriented Palo house who agreed to take him in. Once our House Spirits cut him off, his Vodu Guinen days were over.

Dirty Laundry Time

Everyone asks me, “Why did Jean dismiss Fork from your House?” Well you have to understand it was over more than just ‘one’ thing and it was a long time coming. First and foremost Jean had issues with Fork’s honesty especially in personal. l dealings with him. That alone should say everything so if Jean had issues with Fork, and dismissed him from our House, then Fork is full of shit when he lays claim to our House’s leadership.

Fork’s dishonesty to Jean itself covers a LOT of ground. When you’re initiated by a House Master/Mambo, you are supposed to regularly tithe to the House which helps to support your teacher and it also helps them when they need to ship you something for your practice such as a powder or an oil, maybe a spirit juice, a special statue or whatever is needed for your work. Fork chose NOT to support Jean or our House, only himself.

Fork would also get himself into fights with Santeros & Paleros online then come running to Jean for help and protection which is not something Jean wanted any of his children doing - i.e. getting into fights with others over their Haitian spirituality. That’s because we do not have anything to justify to anyone else. And yet somehow Fork would end up pissing off some advanced practitioner who would be after him until Jean got involved.

What really upset Jean was that Fork would initiate students into his own personal House, then give them a rough way to go in learning Vodu which was not how Jean did Fork nor any of us. According to Fork’s former students, several reported their mistreatment by Fork Nan Pwen and his issuing spiritual threats to them if they went to either Jean, myself (or anyone else) in our House about him.

Invalid Initiations: Initiations At A Distance

Another major issue is our Vodu House does NOT nor will not initiate someone either “at-a-distance” or “by mail” because all valid initiations must be done by an living Initiate and a Kanzo must be performed in person! Yet this was something else I found out Fork was doing to people who lived overseas. Why? Presumably for the money because there was no transference of power. Power can only be transferred directly from a living Priest to an initiate seeking to be baptized with the spirit on them. PERIOD! The African religions are not any sort of self-initiatory system like many new age belief systems are.

And now I am dealing with the fallout of Fork’s former students (and numerous unhappy clients) coming to me.

False Claims: Emperor & Knives

Lately Fork has been dreaming aloud because he has been babbling online that he is a “Houngan Emperor” who now holds the knife in our House of LaFleur Luchene. The joke is Jean worked Guinen (NOT Makaya) and Jean trained all of his students to work Guinen as well. Yet see when you piss off the House's spirits, then you MUST work Makaya to get your results. Fork can no longer work Guinen. 

Jean never needed to use Makaya to get results. Period. I saw this man work miracles without it just by using Hebrew passwords with only his own Head Spirit, a glass of water and a white household (or Hebrew Shabbat) candle. He needed no altar, no drumming, no Hounsis, nor Mambo present, just his own Head Spirit and the passwords he gave to the spirits along with the instructions for them to follow.

And yet last year Fork Nan Pwen went on record saying the following about his Vodu teacher, Jean Kent... 

* he was a fake Houngan who had no actual power

* he was a witch (Haitian version not earth centered spirituality) who had no honor or power other than using evil

* that Jean learned his knowledge by hiding in the weeds watching other Houngans in their houmforts work

* Jean being a witch wanted to kill everyone in our House - yet we’re all still here and if Jean had wanted Fork dead, the boy would already be dead

* and numerous other fictions, lies and deceit

So this begs the real question: if Jean Kent had no real Vodu power, then Fork’s claims to Vodu power are obviously fake as well, correct? Chew on that for a spell...

Now Fork claims Jean promised him to be a Houngan Emperor. The boy has no idea what that title even means let alone requires in order to become one and so forth. Yet here is a little man who comes crawling out of the ashes of his failed marriage, his failed Vodu practice, his failed career, and makes grandiose claims about using a knife in a knife-less practice. Oy vey what goofy claims will this boy make next?

Even Lied About Me!

As if the lies Fork has told about Jean weren’t bad enough, now I learn he has gone around telling people he was initiated before me. Well Fork has openly stated he was initiated Aug 3rd, 2011 yet I was initiated on March 9th, 2009 and I still have all my PayPal receipts to prove my assertion as well as the motel receipt I stayed in.

Kiss Fork's Knife?

If Fork Nan Pwen approaches you claiming he is running or still associated with the Vodu House of Jean Kent, he is out & out LYING to you so grab onto your wallet and run like hell the other direction from him! Jean never gave anyone in our House clear succession. At best he asked me to look after a couple of his students while he was in the hospital just a few days before he died. That is all. I KNOW for a fact he would ever relent and promise Fork something like that all due to the boy's gross immaturity, his ill treatment of his students and clients, and his refusal to financially support Jean or the House.

I know you’re thinking, “Gee Moloch, this sounds so dramatic!” and yes you’re right it is because just like when there’s a death in the family, there’s always those who want to step forward before the body is cold to the touch and GRAB the deceased’s belongings: money, land, power, status, assets and so on. If you have not seen this happen in your own family, consider yourself fortunate. Just ask folks at work or school if that ever happened in their family and you’ll soon hear some very sordid tales about inheritances, birthrights, legacies, bequeathments, and so on, all quickly latched onto by evil, greedy people, most of whom formerly appeared to be loving family members.

In closing, Fork is not someone who tells the truth abo9ut Jean, me, or even his own former students. Thus be aware when dealing with this boy. Watch your back. You have been forewarned.

As You Please Powder

 


As You Please Powder

Color: Orange

1/2 c Orange Blossoms

1/3 c Mint leaves

3 drops of Musk (essential) oil

OR ALTERNATE (made with essential oils only)

1 oz orange powder

6 drops Orange Blossom oil

4 drops Mint oil

2 drops Musk oil

Instructions: If possible, place a pinch in the shoes (or belongings) of those you wish to do your bidding. If this cannot be done, sprinkle where they are certain to walk over, such as a front, side or back door exit of their residence where you know they come & go daily, under their desk, under the seat of their vehicle, and so forth.

~o0o~

As You Please is a form of Commanding/Compelling powder, because it makes others desire to please you at all costs.

As we can see, this classic Sorcery recipe uses a combination of both Orange Blossoms and Mint, both of which have a lovely scent when combined. The Musk oil adds an exotic odor to create an overall intoxicating aroma.

This powder can be used to help gain our way in a quiet, almost clandestine way. You simply use small amounts of it in the manner the recipe as suggests. A little goes a long way. If you use too much, you can undo your efforts by alerting your mark/victim to your machinations against them.

We live in an age when it is difficult to get your own way because we run into laws, rules, protocols, S.O.P.’s, and so on put in place by so-called authority figures. Some rules are necessary while most rules are enacted in order to gain and maintain control over others.

I have found this formula to be an excellent aid to any Bend Over, Commanding, or Compelling rite. One can use the powder to make a V on your working altar (see illustration) &/or use it to encircle your Desire candle. 


Then you use the powder as the instructions indicate. After that simply be patient for things to start to swing your way with this person. It may not happen overnight but they gradually will.

What Is Going On With FedEx Lately?

So the title of this rant says it all. I ask this because normally in the shipping & expediting world, FedEx was king and I say WAS. For some odd reason they have allowed their standards to fall to the point it feels as if they hired some of my retired USPS who didn’t care about accurately delivering mail, (not that all who delivers locally are that way but a number definitely were!)

For years I, and other local residents, have relied on FedEx to deliver the goods speedily as well as accurately. That’s why we or anyone for that matter, pays their higher than normal shipping fees. They once blew away the USPS, UPS among others who tried to topple them in the world of delivered packages but lately their service is horrid and downright terrible.

Within the last thirty days, I have received not one but two packages via FedEx and each time they held my package for “more information” per the driver. Say what? My address has not changed since I moved here. In fact no one’s street address has changed yet the driver for FedEx is telling their home office that addresses in our neighborhood are incorrect even though we have the exact same info on the package with name, correct address and phone number. And yet they can’t deliver the package due to incorrect info? Riddle me that, Batman!

I have had to call FedEx twice now to get my packages delivered even though they have delivered a guitar, an amplifier, cookware, and other assorted household stuff in the last decade to my door. Yet all of a sudden within the last month, FedEx is starting to fall apart? Is it true the driver’s own their trucks and their own routes? If so, then I no longer will use FedEx for either receiving packages nor shipping them out. If they cause me this much aggravation, then I can only guess what sort of ignorance they cause the lot of you reading this.

This is yet another case of “they’ve gotten too big for their breeches” or as my late friend Albert used to say, “They’re successful in spite of themselves” which is what he used to say about Walmart. I am simply going to try DHL to see how they act and since I cannot trust FedEx any longer, I need to find someone else whom I can trust. UPS is out and proved that when they destroyed and refused to reimburse me for several pieces of Radionic-Hybrid equipment shipped through them which arrived damaged to a very unhappy customer. He now refuses to use UPS as well after that little fiasco.

But FedEx used to be in a class all to themselves. You could count on them to do things the right way. Sad they’ve fallen that far. Big giant in the industry. USPS, albeit slow and steady, has still proven to the best method to ship in my experience. They are also the least expensive of the bunch. True a lot of the old ones retired out of there but such things are common and we will see how the new crew does their jobs. As for FedEx, meh. Screw off.

Occult Film to Watch

 


Are you like me, a fan of occult horror films? If so I discovered a new one on Netflix entitled “Dabbe 5: Curse of the Djinn”. It is subtitled in English because unless you speak Arabic, subtitles are required. However the story is allegedly based on real events in Istanbul and Bursa, Turkey.

The story begins with a ritual of a woman giving birth then having her baby is taken from her only to have it given to the djinns. Then we are shown a pair of late 20's modern Yuppie couple who begin to have strange things happen in their home.

Of course the same old horror tropes are involved, primarily the husband who is uber-rational refuses to believe his housewife is experiencing anything metaphysical yet he and she are devoted to “Allah” - which being religious one would presume he would take such things more seriously yet in almost every film on hauntings or possessions, it always seems someone in the film has to portray the skeptic to the bitter end regardless of what they encountered along the way. (Hollywood/Writers, this is getting stale/old!)

A witch-woman aka exorcist gets involved and you hear folklore, minor rites, a magic circle, djinn lore (which may or may not be accurate), a séance, astral travel to the realm of the djinns, and some other fun stuff. The cool thing about this film is you find out at the end, it is based on real events which happened and left the Police dumbfounded as to why some of the people involved were dead and why some were alive.

If you get a chance to view it and can deal with subtitles, I highly recommend it because it IS entertaining. I watched it on my laptop so that I could slow down the playback speed by 1/4 on Netflix and read the subtitles much easier otherwise at normal speed, I found the subtitles moving too quickly to catch everything. Plenty of scary elements in it and lots of interesting tidbits along the way for a fun scare-fest.

Book Burnings Should Be Punishable


This redneck is Greg Locke, yet another right-of-the-far-right ultraconservative "Independent Baptist" preacher whose Alma Maters are considered "KJV-only, complementarian, dispensationalist, science-denying, and affirming of eternal conscious torment" schools. In other words, an under educated hellfire and brimstone moron preaching Independent Baptist of the ilk I was forced to deal with in my own xian school environment.

It is a small, frightening world if you & your faith believe things such as Harry Potter, anime/manga, video games as well as  Dungeon & Dragons are going to harm children. I almost pity these self-righteous morons because our educational system has failed them and now they desire to bestow the same for all else by reverting back to the historical Dark Age period of blatant ignorance and uber-stupidity.

Personally speaking, I believe book burnings should be both banned and outlawed in our country and if caught, it should be a federal crime punishable by forced readings of the burnt texts! Sadly it is not only books these fools burn but also records as well including rock, jazz, blues, C&W, R&B, soul, even some classical - anything which does not fit into their limited world view.

If given the opportunity, this branch of Baptists would tear down our government, destroy libraries, subjugate women for breeding stock, kill off Liberals, and do away with handicapped people not unlike you see in the "The Handmaid's Tale" TV series. Think I am overreacting? Think again, I was raised in this faith for 5 long years and know whereof I speak. I repeatedly heard their propaganda and rhetoric on a near daily basis.

Pedestals


Recently, I had a Novice ask me for advice on beginner Witch books. I’m not up on the modern authors so I made some suggestions for authors I am familiar with, as I typically do. One author I mentioned, Ray Buckland, sent shock waves through the group causing many to freak out over my suggestion. By the reaction to his book suggestion you would have thought I suggested one of Hitler’s personal memoirs or some other equally horrid notion.

Throwing Out Baby With Bath Water

Okay, yes I do get the Cancel Culture idea especially if the person was a “known racist” or someone equally loathsome, and yet today I am seeing far greater reach for this concept of canceling out someone’s body of work especially if they wrote a book or two for the money and not for the sake of the art. In the case of Ray Buckland, his Romany book was such a book which seems to be the stake in his heart for some odd reason.

Never mind that Buckland’s big blue book on Witchcraft is an ideal intro to the subject, which is the same book that got me started way back in 1987. Or the fact numerous Hoodoo folks I know and respect, use Ray’s “Chant-O-Matics” book on a regular basis in their spiritual work. Yes his chants actually work as I have used many of them myself.

So Ray wrote a book or two for money? Big deal. The rest of his work is substantial and worthwhile. I had one Crowleyite picking apart Ray’s works and I had to remind this guy he shouldn’t throw stones while visiting a glass home since his own hero hardly had any sort of a spotless reputation. Furthermore I told this guy Hoodoo folks don’t seem to be into Crowley because they look for magic that works here and now.

Ray Buckland Is Only A Symptom of the Bigger Issue

It seems the youth of today with their Tick-Tock videos are being led by people who have no cred other than they can show an altar set up and just find information for free on the Net. How that makes one an expert is beyond me.

The other side of the coin is many youth seem to be judging others based on hearsay, rumor and hyperbole without facts or proof. It seems they hunt for blogs where some self-righteous asshat has an issue with a practitioner or author and yet this blogger has nothing other than some shady evidence (or just more hearsay) and this is how the cycle of deceit begins.

It’s like as adults, we are all back in grade school and dealing with the whole “popularity” problem all over again. Silly yes, however it is real and the real detriment of social media. It becomes a “he said, she said” sort of thing which is no good. 

Look, if all you are going to do is follow and adopt the practices of people who only share your views, your politics or your opinions, then you are not going to find many to follow. Why? Because as a former Skip Tracer, I can assure you, if you dig deep enough on ANYONE, you will find dirt on them and most likely something which will oppose some belief, moral or truth you hold dear.

So what then?

Do you stay solitary and not bother with commercial, mainstream or Internet info from occult authors who have dirt in their past? There are authors out there whom I know personally who have just done a reasonably good job of keeping their own dirt out of the mainstream and strictly private. They’re not nice people yet their fans are enamored with them. However this begs the question: if their fans discover some sort of dirt on them, will the fans abandon these authors?

Pedestals Are For Statues

We live in a culture where people today seem to worship celebrities and everyone apparently wants to be a celebrity in the spotlight. This is not a bad thing mind you however it seems fans want to place their heroes on pedestals instead of just admiring their body of work and leaving it at that. Pedestals are for statues not people because eventually people will say or do something to cause themselves to fall from their pedestal. Most average people say they understand this concept yet they continually engage in mounting those they admire onto pedestals just the same.

Today, even rumor and hearsay ruins a person’s reputation regardless of whether there are any truths to the allegations. Why? People are cynical and almost all of them believe everything they are told via hearsay, newsprint, or on video again regardless of whether what they’re told is fact based or an outright fabrication. You are guilty until proven innocent. 

Because People WANT to Believe Bullshit

It ought to tell quite a lot about a person when they say they listen to someone like Fox News whose owner specifically stated in a Tampa district court that he was not obligated to tell the truth and yet millions still listen to what this network’s “news” function pretends to be. This has zero to do with political parties or sides because I am merely going on the auspices of what Fox Broadcasting’s owner stated under oath in Tampa’s court of law.

And because Fox News has kept its share of viewers even though everyone knows they fabricate a goodly portion of their so-called “news”, other news agencies began to follow suit and disseminate fiction as fact. And people eat that shit up too. This is why I am skeptical of any news source and its so-called news. 

I have a friend of mine who is a ham radio operator who gets his news directly from people living in foreign lands who tell him what is really going on and not what some news agency first sanitizes before they disseminate to the public. No I’m not going to invest in a ham radio license and equipment just to get news because I have my own life, clients, students and so forth to deal with at the moment. If you desire un-sanitized news, then you will have to opt for something like becoming a ham radio operator.

Summary

So you will have to make a solid decision on occult authors at some point because the modern authors you love now are doing and saying things which later when they come to light, will repulse and abhor you. Why? They are people and people have a tendency to stumble and fall... a lot. If you are going to hold author A responsible for something said in a private discussion several decades ago, then you need to ask yourself about your own path, how you think, speak and act every moment of each day and if you say or do something which later you regret, are you not then as bad as those you finger point to?

When you are angry, arguing with another, and get to the point where you both begin to say evil things to one another, ask yourself if what you are saying, if immediately broadcast, would cause you to lose friends and supporters. Most likely, it would. Occult authors are like you, once something is said or done, it can never be taken back thus remember your own regrets when looking down on an occult author because she or he is just a person, like yourself, who can easily stumble and fall off the pedestal.

The Occult: Not Depraved But Mildly Erotic

 




Is it still 1921 or 2021? I ask because it seems those who deem themselves authorities on the occult to the Police and the media are wont to paint the lot of us as depraved individuals. Excuse me to all of you "alleged experts" on the occult, but I am an occultist and I am not depraved. I may be mildly erotic at best but hardly depraved.

Really, just who are you so-called experts anyway? And where do you get off demeaning an entire sub-genre of people? And please, what makes you experts on the occult? And furthermore, who made you experts? Because I guarantee you this: myself and many other occultists have forgotten far more than you will ever know about the occult!

And the fact that you label all Witchcraft & Wicca, OTO, Golden Dawn, Vodu/Voodoo or Hoodoo as "Satanism" just proves how much of an occult expert YOU ARE NOT! Because a real expert would know the differences between each and be able to explain them which most informed occultists can do and yet no alleged Police occult expert is able too.

It is also telling of just how little you know when you automatically label finding a black candle stub, a crudely drawn pentagram and a Motley Crue CD at a cemetery as a "Satanic Ritual" when you have never seen nor studied what a real Satanic rite looks like. Such a finding may simply be a graveside ceremony for a deceased friend who liked Motley Crue and had a thing for black candles and pentagrams. Just because you might find a Star of David graffitied on a cement wall, does that indicate Jews are invading too??

The sad part is people like you are only interested in sensationalizing minor details to inflate and conflate them into whatever bullshit you want the public to believe them to be. You Police Occult experts remind me traveling evangelists because you have the same mentality, the same penchant for lying, omitting the truth, stretching details to fit your beliefs and conflating facts instead of attesting them for their veracity.

Can I say that all occult practitioners are like me? No. However I can say that out of the thousands of practitioners I've known in my near 34 years of involvement and practice in Witchcraft, Sorcery, Haitian Vodu and the Occult, I have yet to meet anyone who I would deem depraved. I have met a few who were a bit off in the head but lunatic fringe in groups is nothing new as the three Abrahamic religions all have their fair share of fruits, nuts and flakes among their ranks and they do nothing to rid themselves of these sickos!

Thus, before you go labeling our beliefs as depraved, look into your own family's religion's history and just see how sick, twisted and bloody your faith has been before you go pointing fingers. We are just tired of the Abrahamic cults and their intolerances towards others.
