The Thule-Gesellschaft (Thule Society) was founded August 17, 1918, by Rudolf von Sebottendorff. Its original name was Studiengruppe für germanisches Altertum (Study Group for German Antiquity), but it soon started to disseminate anti-republican and anti-Semitic propaganda. It was instrumental in the foundation of the Deutsche Arbeiter-Partei (German Workers' Party) which later became the NSDAP (Nazi Party). It had members from the top echelons of the party, including Rudolf Heß and Alfred Rosenberg, and Adolf Hitler himself. Its press organ was the Münchener Beobachter (Munich Observer) which later became the Völkischer Beobachter (People's Observer). The Thule Society is known to be closely connected to the Germanenorden secret society a.ka. the "Order of Teutons" (1912) whose origins stretch back to the 12th and 13th century.

Thule theory

A primary focus of Thule-Gesellschaft was the discovering the origins of the Aryan race. Thule comes from the greek and means "land". This society was named after "Ultima Thule"- the "Farthest Land" and capital of ancient Hyperborea at the extreme north near Greenland or Iceland. The Thulists also believed in the hollow earth theory and spent years of expeditions to remote parts of the earth in search of the entrances to the inner world where they could contact ancient civilizations that went underground and worship the Black Sun. Despite Thule's business contacts and political connections, having laid the very foundations of Nazism by founding the German Workers Political Circle, German Workers Party, and finally the National Socialist German Workers Party (NSDAP)by 1920, Thule's ultimate goal was to prove that the Aryan race came from this farthest north land- possibly Atlantis, which was lost. Thule had members from the top echelons of the Nazi Party, including Rudolf Hess and Alfred Rosenberg, Hermann Goering, Heinrich Himmler and of course Adolf Hitler himself. Its press organ was the Münchener Beobachter (Munich Observer) which later became the Völkischer Beobachter (People's Observer). Power through virulent anti-semitism and national socialism were just the first steps of Thule's sinister plan to subjugate the entire world by reconnecting with the Aryan race.

Thule found its true purpose through the joining of societies in 1919 with the Vril Gesellschaft and DHvSS which also believed in worship of the Black Sun; but it was the psychic mediums of Vril and Thule's own resident psychic Maria Orsic that convinced them that the Aryan race didn't originate from earth but from Aldebaran in Alpha Tauri- 68 light years away. Vril also convinced the DHvSS (Men of the Black Stone) that their mountain goddess Isias was the queen of Aldebaran. With all their beliefs united Thule began funding construction of an inter-dimensional flight disc named the Jenseitsflugmaschine (Other World Flight Machine) in 1921. The disc was built through a series of psychic revelations of the medium Maria Orsic then translated by a Vril medium named Sigrun. Together, they provided the basic materials to be used in the construction of the machine and the first designs of the machine itself. This machine was then built in Munich in 1922 in secret under the leadership of Thulist Professor W.O. Schumann of the Technical University of Munich. Thule and Vril experimented with the odd disc machine for two years and then dismantled it after Professor Schumann derived a levitator unit from the research. This was perfected over many years and aroused great interest by Hitler, Himmler, and Goering.

With the Nazi Party in power in 1933 Thule and Vril were given official backing to continue the disc development plans. Another Thulist, Dr. Krohn, designed the Nazi flag which contrary to popular belief does not come from the Swastika at all. The German Hakenkreuz (Hooked Cross) is derived from the Black Sun symbol worshipped by all three occult groups. Thule had this symbol atop a German dagger in 1919- fourteen years BEFORE Hitler even came to power.

By 1935 Thule had joined with Himmler's SS technical branch unit E-IV (Entwicklungsstelle 4), tasked with developing alternate energies, and started working on a large flight disc under the code name H-Gerat (H-Device). The "H" stood for the remote location where the disc was being constructed- in Hauneburg. Meanwhile, by 1937 Vril had purchased the fallow land around the Arado Brandenburg aircraft plant and began to develop a series of RFZ (Rundflugzeug, Round Aircraft) that utilized Professor Schumann's SM-Levitator. Tests with these craft continued until 1939 when Thule and the SS E-IV unit created a working EMG (Electro-Magnetic-Gravitic) engine named the Thule Triebwerk (Thrustwork)and moved from Hauneburg to Arado Brandenburg. The device H-Gerat was then briefly included with Vril's RFZ series as RFZ-5 until war broke out. RFZ-5 then became Haunebu I.

With Hitler declaring all secret societies in Germany be banned by 1941 both Thule and Vril were documented under the SS technical branch unit E-1V which continued to build both a Thule Haunebu series and Vril series of flight discs of increasing power. In 1941 with this ruling, RFZ-7 became Vril-1 Jager (Hunter).

The goal of the SS was a potential war weapon but the occultists only goal was to achieve channeled flight through the construction of a large Raumschiff (Spaceship) which began construction in 1943 as the Andromeda-Gerat (Andromeda Device) which was a 139 meter long flying cylinder powered by four Thule Triebwerks and four pairs of SM-Levitators.

The SS E-IV unit assigned a specific sub-group to work on just these two machines, the E-V unit which nicknamed Andromeda-1 "Freyr" and Andromeda-2 "Freya". Both were constructed in well camouflaged above ground hangars similar to the old destroyed Zeppelin hangars. In September 1944 one of the completed units was spotted by a Me-262 pilot and reported. Sonderburo 13 (Special Bureau 13) of the Luftwaffe covered-up the incident to prevent reports getting back to the Allies.

The second machine was discovered partially constructed in 1945 by the US Army. But by then, both Thule and Vril had evacuated to bases outside the Reich in South America and German claimed Antarctica- Neuschwabenland, at a secret military installation, Base 211. They took their technology with them while the Vril mediums used the completed Andromeda-2 Freya to attempt channeled flight to Aldebaran in March 1945. After VE-Day in Europe no trace was found of either society. Allied intelligence teams pressured Argentina to not allow the Germans safe haven in that nation so U-boats 977 and 530 which surrendered after the war were captured with their holds empty of cargo and personnell. The Allied authorities were searching for Thule and Vril technology and for answers concerning the location of Base 211. They got nothing. No trace of Thule nor Vril was found except fragmentary documents of which the last Vril message contains a return date in our lifetime- 2004/2005. It was written in March 1945. This coincides with Hitler's last personal testament that,"In the last days my spirit will rise again and I will be proven right." which was verbally stated on April 30, 1945 just hours before Hitler committed suicide.

In just 25 years, Thule created the Nazi Party, the Nazi Flag, groomed Hitler, created Himmler's empire within Germany(which ensured the Holocaust), spread the myth of Aryan superiority, built occult discs, secret bases outside the Reich, and even planned a return in the future.
