Edith Starr Miller’s “Occult Theocrasy” on Theosophy and the Illuminati

Known as Lady Queensborough, her real name was Edith Starr Miller (1887-1933). Edith Starr Miller, an active member of Fascist leagues, sought it her utmost duty as an anti-Mormon Christian to find every religion other than her Christianity conduits in a ‘Satanic and Luciferian plot’ to overthrow “Judeo-Christian civilization.” Like the conspiracists of today, various groups both political and religious are imagined to be on a Hierarchical ‘Pyramid’ run by a cabal of nefarious Jews (not merely Zionist), or the hooved Satan himself.

Hence, Edith Starr Miller’s thesis in her second work, Occult Theocrasy is that the body of international politic is being manipulated by a cabal of Adepts who worship Satan and Lucifer. Without distinguishing any assails on quite all secret 16th-19th c. organisations, and ancient religions. These are the Brahmins (including Hindus in general), Jesuits, Gnostics, Buddhists, Zionists, Theosophists, Italian Carbonari, Freemasons and Irish nationalists. Occultism, Edith Starr Miller begins her work arguing, is purely Satanic and Luciferian. E.S. Miller asserts, that Luciferian Occultism controls Freemasonry, and the Gnostics, an Anti-Christian sect was a Satanic revolution.

As anticipated by Helena P. Blavatsky, she stated how despite unequivocal statements in The Secret Doctrine, that people after will say the God of the Theosophists in secret is really Lucifer and Satan. Theosophy however rejects the existence and theory of God and Satan.

Occult Theocrasy draws on the works of anti-masonic documents now proven hoaxes. Its section on the Theosophical Society is entirely based on numerous inaccuracies from the critiques of Rene Guénon.

Edith Starr Miller first obscures Theosophy, by stating that Blavatsky’s superiors were apart of a “Great White Lodge” that secretly governs the world, as if they were nurses like the blessing Catholic Saints.

Edith Starr Miller connects theosophist and socialist Charles Sotheran to Albert Pike in her theory of his “Luciferianism,” which is the first sign she is deceiving her readers. I debunked this claim in Albert Pike Ponders on Lucifer in Morals and Dogma, which is also based on the Taxil hoaxes, and used to defame Giuseppe Mazzini. She uses the unfortunate debacle of Jiddu Krishnamurti, Charles W. Leadbeater, and Annie Besant to set up the Theosophical Movement as one of the subversive orders attempting to topple her precious Christendom.

The objects of the Theosophical Society Edith Starr Miller lays out are:

  • World Government through the “Restoration of the Mysteries,” and World Religion with it, as its head.
  • The Theosophical Society is characterized as having a political status aimed at creating a secret and theocratic order. 

So, without going into the history of the Theosophical Society, she conflates the aims of the subversive second generation Adyar leaders with the first and other branches who broke off. Instead of Edith Starr Miller’s conspiracies about Theosophy, I recommend reading critiques by Theosophists in the 1900s about the emerging conflicts from authors beginning with Alice Leighton Cleather and Basil Crump in 1929 then Victor Endersby in 1963.
