After 7 months, police think they have discovered the identity of the homeless woman whose body was discovered on Mount Eliza, King's Park. They say she is 68-year-old Claire Rosalind Hicks.
Claire, who is variously described as Ms Hicks and Mrs Hicks in the West Australian article of 11th May 2002 apparently had an 84-year-old sister, in South Australia. I say apparently because the DNA match was inconclusive, and the South Australian woman had not seen her sister for 12 years.
Police also say that Claire Hicks once had a child, which she had given up for adoption. Although police are to be congratulated for their success, they apparently do not regard their lack of a perpetrator as a serious enough reason to locate the adopted child. Of course children who feel they have been abandoned have never been known to seek revenge against the parents who they feel discarded them. Perhaps police have other ideas as to who may have committed the murder. I'm sure?
Of course, with the discovery of the victim's name it is worth looking at possible occult aspects.
One that leaps out with alacrity is that the first name is Claire, and that she was found on a mount or mont -Clairemont. Claremont, for those in the know seems to be the epicentre of much murder and mayhem around Perth, Western Australia.
Where Claire's body was discovered is only a short distance from Claremont, near the University of Western Australia and in King's Park. King's Park has a long history of ritual activity, from Christian to Satanism, all stations in-between and round the outside. King's Park is a wooded area upon Mount Eliza, an area supposed to be kept 'unspoilt' in perpetuity, I was always told there was covenant to say as much. (Apparently this covenant was the brainchild of Lord John Forrest, who is immortalised with a giant statue in the park. John moon, Forrest wood get it? All symbolically coded clever stuff.)
Anyway, because Elizabeth is a name derived from the name of a Moon Goddess, it is clear that Mount Eliza means Mountain of the Moon the same as Mount Sinai, and very possibly Claremont. Neighbouring Claremont is Mount Claremont they've doubled up the mount reference. On Mount Claremont is the mental institution 'Graylands Hospital', which is appropriate for the 'mountain of the moon'. Our word 'lunatic' is derived from Luna, the moon. Also on Graylands is Brockway Road (rubbish) Tip. This would have been searched thoroughly by police at the time of any disappearances, wouldn't it?
Claire means light, or bright or clear and so has rich associations with ritual and symbolism. It is associated with eyes and heaven, knowledge and a multitude of other interpretations. What is important to remember is that it is a fundamental precept of all spiritual thought.
Rosalind, that comes from the German Hros horse and lind snake, serpent. Both of these animals figure very strongly in spiritual symbolism. (Claire was murdered in the Chinese year of the Snake, and her identity discovered in the year of the Horse.) These two animals also feature on statues of the Triple Goddess, which have three heads of a dog, a serpent and a horse. Another origin is obviously rose and line - bloodline, serpent-rouge. A horse and a rose are sun symbols and a serpent is a moon symbol.
Hicks may not be Claire's maiden name, and there again it could be, but was she ever married, and if so what was that name? Who was she married to? At the least, who was the father of her child? It seems apparent that she came from a 'well-heeled' or aristocratic-linked background, which is often (if not always), according to my investigations, the case with victims of satanic abuse. . The surname Hicks is a derivation of Richard, which means 'rule-hard', strict observance etc. Mind you, a hick is a country bumpkin a peasant, the original meaning of pagan but that is just an observation.
If anyone can tell me the exact location where the woman's body was discovered, I'd be interested to know. Perhaps when police read this they might consider drawing an alignment through the Bell Tower and this spot. What else sits on or extremely close to it? That could be very interesting.
