There was a large occult presence in Nazi ideology. including astrology ( later refuted by Hitler who began sending astrologists to Concentration Camps).
I have even read that Hitler conjured up the Devil and made the deal of his life. The Devil apparently reneged though.

Although his sources have been questioned, Trevor Ravenscroft's "Spear of Destiny" is an interesting supplementary read.

Dr. Stanley Monteif's radio show (archives at www.radioliberty.com) quite often has guests on that speak about the occultic ties to Hitler. Rather fascinating.

Hi, Aquinasfan. It was Hitler's occultic practices that caused a great deception to fall on the German people. When people on these threats don't believe the occult can damage their children, etc., they need to see what Hitler accomplished through his satanic dabblings. And look how he ended up. satan loves to destroy, even his most faithful disciples.

The Occult Roots of Nazism seems to be the best scholarship on the subject. But the question remains what was the root source of National Socialism. Was N.S. a product of some occult movement, or rather was there something in the origin of National Socialism that prompted it toward occultism.
My opinion is that the second is the truth. In XIX century Germany there was a movement of Volkism from which N.S. originated and so did other movements. Read the excellent The Crisis of German Ideology by George L. Mosse.
