Articles and Features
La Encomienda de Caravaca de la Cruz
This extensive article, authored by Sebastián Carbajosa Castilla, delves into the history of the Knights Templar and their connection to Caravaca de la Cruz. It begins with the Templars' vow and their establishment in Jerusalem, their rise to become one of the wealthiest and most powerful orders, and their eventual downfall on Friday the 13th of October, 1307. The article explores the probable motives behind their persecution, including greed and envy of their riches. It also touches upon the legend of a secret pact between the knights and a king of a sacred lineage, possibly related to the Holy Grail, to search for treasures within the Temple of Solomon.
The article describes Caravaca de la Cruz as a city in the Murcia region with a rich history, influenced by various cultures including Iberian, Punic, Roman, Gothic, and Muslim. The Alcázar Santuario of the Holy Cross of Caravaca, of Arab origin, is highlighted as a prominent landmark. The historical center is noted for its well-preserved architecture. The article also mentions the Torreón de los Templarios and various museums in the area.

It discusses the legend of the "Miracle of the Appearance," where the cross is said to have appeared to the Muslim king Abu Zeyl, leading to his conversion. The theft of the relic in 1934 is also mentioned. The article notes that the current cross displayed is a replica, and the original's whereabouts remain unknown.

Walpurgis: La Noche de Las Noches
Pages 3 through 8 delve into the theme of Walpurgis Night. Page 3 introduces the topic with a quote: "Llévame esta noche a la Tierra de los sueños, tan solo una noche bastará para poder soñar" from 'La Tierra de los Sueños-DÜNEDAIN'.
Pages 4 and 5, authored by Rosa Santizo Pareja, explain that Walpurgis Night is the most magical night of the year, occurring between April 30th and May 1st (Northern Hemisphere) or October 31st and November 1st (Southern Hemisphere), preceding the Beltane festival. It is described as a night where the real and unreal merge, light and darkness unite, and the boundaries between the visible and invisible worlds blur, allowing a glimpse into the unknown and the inner self. It is presented as a night for those who still believe dreams can come true through inner magic, emphasizing that anything is possible with the right intention and by not harming others. The text highlights the importance of respecting all life forms and living according to one's own rules rather than societal norms. It suggests that true magic comes from within and that individuals are responsible for their own changes and transformations, not external forces or deities.
Pages 5 and 6 continue this exploration, linking Walpurgis Night to the ancient traditions of witches and 'Wise Women'. It discusses how the Christianization of Europe led to the persecution of these traditions, with women who rebelled against societal norms being labeled as 'witches'. The text explains that the Catholic Church, in its effort to suppress pagan practices, adopted and altered some of these celebrations, associating Walpurgis Night with a 'Saint' named Walburga (710-779), a Benedictine nun. Despite these efforts, the ancient religion and its practices have persisted.
Pages 6 and 7 detail the historical context and locations associated with Walpurgis Night gatherings. It mentions that the night precedes Beltane, a festival honoring Belenus, the god of fire, and that bonfires were lit to symbolize renewal. The tradition is sometimes linked to Viking practices adopted by the Celts. It is seen as a time of change and transformation, symbolizing the triumph of light over darkness. The text notes that gatherings of witches, or 'sorginak' in Basque, took place in various locations, including Blocksberg in Germany, near Kiev in Russia, Blocula in Sweden, and Puy de Dome in France. In Spain, the caves of Zugarramurdi in Navarra are highlighted as a significant meeting place, where, according to legend, witches held their 'akelarre' (prado del macho cabrío - meadow of the male goat). The text recounts the historical persecution by the Inquisition, citing the 1612 event where forty women were arrested, and twelve were burned. The article also references Goethe's 'Faust', where Mefistófeles takes Faust to witness a Walpurgis Night scene on the Brocken mountain.
Pages 7 and 8 discuss the symbolic meaning of Walpurgis Night as a time for personal transformation and renewal. It emphasizes that the changes made are for oneself, not for external validation. The night is seen as an opportunity to shed what hinders personal growth and to move forward on one's chosen path. The text touches upon the idea of the veil between the living and the dead being thin on this night, allowing spirits to interact with the living. It also mentions that bonfires and lights were used to ward off these spirits. The article concludes by stating that the greatest magic any being can possess is freedom.
El Ritual (The Ritual)
Page 8 focuses on the rituals associated with Walpurgis Night. It states that rituals should be personalized and adapted to individual desires and needs. The atmosphere, clothing, food, and surroundings should be prepared to enhance the experience. The text suggests that blood can be incorporated into rituals, not in a masochistic sense, but as a symbol of offering one's essence or life force to a loved one, signifying a profound spiritual and carnal union. For those celebrating alone, the ritual should focus on self-reflection, shedding negative influences, and embracing personal growth. The article encourages using imagination to fulfill hidden desires and to experience pleasure without fear or prejudice. It stresses the importance of looking forward and not dwelling on the past, as doing so wastes time and energy. The night is described as a time for sensory indulgence and experiencing dreams as reality, but warns that choosing the wrong companion or approach can turn this magical night into a nightmare. The ultimate magic, it concludes, is freedom.

This issue of 'Misterios y Fenómenos Insólitos' delves into the enigmatic region of Orrius, exploring its rich history, mystical sites, and local legends. The magazine highlights how ancient ancestors perceived nature as a living organism imbued with hidden forces and energy currents, often referred to as 'Ley lines'.

Nature and Energy Currents
The text explains the concept of 'Ley lines' as vital energy currents flowing through the Earth, akin to a nervous system. Ancient peoples organized their lives around these energies, and modern discoveries, such as the alignment of ancient churches and megalithic sites, confirm the geographical patterns of these energy points. The article notes that certain plants, like nettles, hazels, and elder trees, thrive in areas influenced by these terrestrial currents, while others, like fir trees, do not.

Rock Formations and Sculptures
The issue details several notable rock formations and ancient sculptures found in the Orrius area and its surroundings, particularly near La Roca del Vallès. These include:
- The Roca del Vallès: A significant site featuring large granite boulders, some naturally shaped and others sculpted by human hands. Notable sculptures include figures resembling a Moai, an indigenous person, and an elephant. The artists, local to the area, are said to have left their signatures on a stone near the elephant.

- The Dolmen de Céllecs (Cabana del Moro): A megalithic structure with a sepulchral chamber formed by three side slabs and a roof slab, with a corridor formed by two side slabs. Excavations in 1950 yielded pottery fragments, and later findings included remains of wax and animal viscera, suggesting ritualistic or sacrificial practices.
- La Roca de les Creus: A granite rock bearing various cruciform signs and other engravings of different sizes, shapes, and eras. These carvings are dated to the late prehistoric period and possibly the medieval era, with some linked to legends of the bandolero Perot de la Roca.
- La Roca de les Orenetes: A large granite block with an opening that served as a shelter. It houses one of the most important rock art ensembles in Catalonia, featuring paintings from the Levantine prehistoric tradition to the Bronze Age, as well as later abstract schematic art from the end of prehistory.
- La Roca Foradada: Located in the Replana de Can Planes, this site is described as similar to hypogea used for burials in the megalithic tradition. It features an open chamber within a large granite block.
Legends and Historical Figures
The issue also touches upon local legends and historical figures. The bandolero Roque Guinart, mentioned by Miguel de Cervantes in 'Don Quixote', is recalled. Perot Rocaguinarda, another famous bandolero from the 17th century, is also featured, with his story linked to the area. The legends of the Roca de les Creus mention that the crosses carved on it are a reminder of those assassinated by Perot de la Roca.
Archaeological and Cultural Significance
The article emphasizes the archaeological importance of these sites, highlighting their contribution to understanding prehistoric cultures in the Maresme region. The rock art at La Roca de les Orenetes was declared a UNESCO World Heritage site. The issue also notes the ongoing efforts by the local council of La Roca to recover and preserve this heritage, lamenting the current state of some of the figures due to modern vandalism.

Ufología del pasado (Ufology of the Past)

Misterios: Ovni Prehispánico
This article, featuring contributions from Eulogio Soto Mahe, discusses prehistoric art and its potential connection to extraterrestrial visitors. It posits that early humans, including Neanderthals, may have had interactions with beings from space, which influenced their development and artistic expressions. The article references findings in Acámbaro, Guanajuato, Mexico, and suggests that these ancient cultures, like the Sumerians and Egyptians, were advanced due to extraterrestrial contact. It highlights how ancient drawings and paintings depict flying objects (UFOs) that resemble modern-day sightings, suggesting a continuous presence of these phenomena throughout history.
The text also touches upon the idea that governments may be concealing evidence of extraterrestrial contact. It argues that the persistence of UFO phenomena and the numerous testimonies of sightings worldwide indicate that these encounters are real and not mere hallucinations or misinterpretations.

It describes the building as a large, isolated, and eerie structure with a history dating back to the 15th century. The article notes its accessibility only by a difficult 7 km path.

This issue of "Misterios y Fenómenos Insólitos" (Mysteries and Unexplained Phenomena), issue number 121, dated April 2011, delves into a variety of dark and unexplained topics. The cover prominently features "Satanismo, culto al lado oscuro" (Satanism, cult of the dark side), indicating a significant focus on this theme. The magazine also includes articles on paranormal investigations, UFO sightings, and historical mysteries.
"Viaje a lo Desconocido" (Journey into the Unknown)
This section details a personal investigation of a haunted seminary and the infamous "Salto del Fraile" (The Friar's Leap). The author describes the physical dangers of the overgrown seminary grounds, including hidden wells. Inside, the author attempts to record paranormal activity using a video camera, capturing what sounds like a "gemido de dolor" (groan of pain) that seems to speak directly to the microphone. The author also grapples with the mystery of the "Salto del Fraile," a precipice where a friar named Don Álvaro is said to have committed suicide. The location is described as immense and difficult to pinpoint. The author encounters a local couple who offer cryptic advice about finding the right spot. The journey to the "Salto del Fraile" is perilous, involving a narrow, crumbling path along the cliff edge. The author describes the terrifying experience of standing at the edge, contemplating the vast landscape and the friar's final moments, recalling the friar's alleged suicidal invocation: "infiemo, abre tu boca y trágamej húndase el cielo, perezca la raza humana, exterminio destrucción....." (Hell, open your mouth and swallow me; may the sky sink, may the human race perish, extermination, destruction.....). Despite the chilling experience, the author concludes that while the investigation of the seminary was intriguing, they will not return to the "Salto del Fraile."
"Sectas" (Sects)
This extensive section explores various aspects of Satanism and cult activity in Spain. It begins by discussing the historical duality of good and evil and the role of religions in shaping these concepts, particularly the Judeo-Christian influence that led to the figure of Satan. The article notes that Satanism, in part, emerged as a refuge for those who felt alienated from established religious currents.
Valdelarco Incident (1974)
The article recounts an incident in Valdelarco in 1974 where tourists were suspected of engaging in satanic practices. An individual hid in a church, leading to a confrontation with locals and the Civil Guard. The individuals involved were later prosecuted, with one being tried under military law due to serving in the military at the time.
Cemetery Profanations and Rituals
Several instances of vandalism and alleged satanic rituals in cemeteries across Huelva province are detailed. These include the desecration of graves, the scattering of human remains, and the inversion of crosses. The article questions whether these acts were purely vandalism or had satanic intent, noting that while some incidents lacked clear evidence of satanic rituals, others involved symbols like inverted crosses, the number 666, and the word "Satán."
Other Incidents and Allegations
False rumors about child sacrifices and satanic cults are addressed, including claims about "Las Hermanas del Hato de Belcebú." The article also mentions an earthquake in 1989 and its potential connection to these events, though the author finds this hypothesis far-fetched.
The Case of "El Boca" and the Satanic Bible
A significant portion of the "Sectas" section focuses on the murder of Ana María Jerez Cano in 1991. The accused, José Frarico De la Cruz, known as "El Boca," was convicted. However, a later review of the case involved a manuscript presented by a psychic, Emilio Martín Ortega, which claimed to be written by Barrera Barrios. This manuscript allegedly confessed to the murder with satanic motivations, detailing rituals involving a cat's blood and the separation of the victim's head. The manuscript's authenticity was questioned, and the Supreme Court ultimately ruled it false, stating it was written on Martín's typewriter and signed by Barrera under duress. The article highlights the lingering uncertainty about whether satanic involvement played a role in the murder, despite the official ruling.
Graffiti and Symbols
Instances of satanic graffiti are mentioned, including those found in Aracena and Huelva, featuring symbols like inverted pentagrams and the number 666. The article notes that while some graffiti is clearly satanic, others might be attributed to simple vandalism or "gamberrada" (hooliganism).
