Title: The Transition from Pisces to Aquarius: A Spiritual Decline in the Evolian Lens Tags: #Evola #PiscesAge #AquariusAge #SpiritualDecline #Traditionalism #CyclicalTime #Christianity #ElonMusk #TechnologicalMaterialism #Individualism

Christians beginning to understand they made a mistake installing the thing they don't want to see. The Pisces Age people and their “unity, faith, and the dissolution of boundaries” have succeeded to install the new “Aquarius age” with the 'technological advancement, individualism, and the pursuit of new paradigms' of Musk. good job christians, again!

1. The Pisces Age: Unity, Faith, and Dissolution of Boundaries

  • The Pisces Age (circa 1–2000 CE) was dominated by the rise of universal religions like Christianity, Islam, and Buddhism, which emphasized compassion, faith, and the dissolution of boundaries (for example, between self and other, humanity and the divine).
  • Christianity, in particular, played a central role in shaping the spiritual and cultural landscape of the Pisces Age. Its teachings of love, forgiveness, and universal salvation resonated deeply with the Piscean energy of unity and transcendence.
  • However, the emphasis on faith and spiritual unity also led to the erosion of traditional hierarchies and the rise of egalitarian ideals, which, over time, contributed to the fragmentation of spiritual authority and the decline of the sacred.

2. The Transition to the Aquarius Age

  • The Aquarius Age (beginning around 2000 CE) is characterized by technological advancement, individualism, and the pursuit of new paradigms. This age is ruled by Uranus (innovation, rebellion) and Saturn (structure, discipline), reflecting a shift toward rationality, progress, and the breaking of old systems.
  • The transition from Pisces to Aquarius has been marked by the rise of secularism, scientific materialism, and globalization, as well as the dominance of technology and individualism in shaping human culture.

3. The Role of Christianity in the Transition

  • Christianity, as a dominant force during the Pisces Age, played a significant role in shaping the values and ideals that have led to the current Aquarian paradigm. For example:
    • The egalitarian ideals of Christianity (for example, “all are equal in the eyes of God”) contributed to the erosion of traditional hierarchies and the rise of individualism.
    • The emphasis on faith and spiritual unity led to the dissolution of boundaries between cultures, religions, and nations, paving the way for globalization and the interconnected world of the Aquarius Age.
    • The rejection of materialism in favor of spiritual values may have inadvertently created a vacuum that was filled by the technological and materialistic focus of the Aquarius Age.

4. The Unintended Consequences

  • The Pisces Age emphasis on unity and faith has, in some ways, backfired in the Aquarius Age. For example:
    • The dissolution of boundaries has led to the loss of cultural and spiritual identity, as traditional values and hierarchies are replaced by a homogenized, globalized culture.
    • The egalitarian ideals of Christianity have contributed to the rise of individualism and the erosion of communal and spiritual bonds.
    • The rejection of materialism has been replaced by an even more intense focus on technological and material progress, as seen in the rise of figures like Elon Musk, who embody the Aquarian ideals of innovation and individualism.

5. Evolian Perspective: The Irony of Spiritual Decline

  • From an Evolian perspective, this transition reflects the irony of spiritual decline. The Pisces Age, with its emphasis on unity and faith, sought to transcend the material world but ultimately contributed to the rise of the materialistic and individualistic Aquarius Age.
  • This dynamic is a manifestation of the cyclical nature of time, where each age contains the seeds of its own decline and the emergence of the next age. The Pisces Age, in its pursuit of spiritual unity, inadvertently laid the groundwork for the fragmentation and materialism of the Aquarius Age.

6. The Role of Figures Like Elon Musk

  • Figures like Elon Musk epitomize the Aquarian energy of technological advancement, individualism, and the pursuit of new paradigms. Musk’s work in areas like space exploration, artificial intelligence, and renewable energy reflects the Aquarian ideals of progress and innovation.
  • However, this focus on technological and material progress risks further eroding the sacred and deepening the spiritual decline of the modern world.

Metaphysical part:

The first point is that on the path of high magic, there is no initial necessity to recognize the concepts of “good” and “evil” in a moral sense when following a discipline. This acknowledgment might be required for a passive individual, one who lacks the inner function of command and thus seeks it externally, desiring to be directed. A fully integrated being, embodying duality (as Abraxas suggests), can internally generate both the absolute power to command and the absolute power to obey. When an individual lacks not only the capacity to command (often the heaviest burden) but also the ability to obey, and when this inability to obey in the inferior aspect overrides the rights of the superior aspect, it leads to disorder, laxity, and the “false freedom” that many mystics rightly identify as a significant peril on their path. However, this deviation must not be mistaken for the true freedom of superior beings who can self-impose law. A discipline that seeks to extinguish a portion of one’s will and awaken the capacity for unconditional obedience is a fundamental element of the magical journey.

The second point is that, particularly for the practical aspects of magic, one must cultivate a faculty that can be described as the ability to transcend oneself through an élan, an active self-overcoming, and an affirmation that extends beyond individuality. In ordinary life, traits such as heroism, heroic or orgiastic ecstasy, the thrill of risking one’s life, and even a readiness for sacrifice are indicators of this direction. The capacity to live beyond oneself, to actively surpass one’s limits, is as crucial to magical and theurgical practices as the coexistence of absolute command and absolute obedience within oneself. Those bound by the inner constraints of the Self will either fail to transcend these limits or will do so at the cost of their own destruction.

Title: Julius Evola's Critique of America and Modernity
Tags: #Evola #Traditionalism #AntiModernity #SpiritualDecline #Americanism #CritiqueOfMaterialism

America as a Symbol of Decadence

  1. America as a Symbol of Decadence: Evola viewed America as the epitome of a mechanized, materialistic civilization, devoid of spiritual depth and rooted in utilitarianism.
  2. Rejection of Modern Values: He saw America as the antithesis of traditional values, emphasizing progress, egalitarianism, and individualism—principles he considered corrosive to hierarchical and transcendent ideals.
  3. Critique of Modernity: Evola's disdain for America was part of his broader critique of modernity, which he saw as a decline from a sacred, ordered, and aristocratic past.
  4. Chain of Decline: He traced the decline of Western civilization through liberalism, democracy, socialism, and communism, viewing them as interconnected stages of the same degenerative process.
  5. Illusion of Democracy: Evola argued that democracy and liberalism are not antithetical to communism but are earlier stages of the same subversive current leading to societal collapse.
  6. Radicalism and Intransigence: He advocated for a radical rejection of political decadence in all its forms, emphasizing the need for intransigence and purity in resisting subversion.
  7. Rejection of Progressivism: Evola dismissed the notion of “progress” as a destructive force, urging a return to timeless, traditional truths rather than chasing futuristic illusions.
  8. Americanism as a Trojan Horse: He considered Americanism more dangerous than communism because it subtly undermines traditional values through materialism, consumerism, and cultural influence.
  9. Convergence of East and West: Evola saw both Americanism and communism as two sides of the same coin, working to destroy Europe's spiritual and cultural heritage.
  10. Call to Resistance: He called for a steadfast defense of traditional values, warning against the passive acceptance of modernity's corrosive forces and the ultimate abdication of Europe's spiritual legacy.

Some European:

“Had we Europeans foreseen the artificial construct that America is, we might not have allowed its creation.”

Julius Evola's perspective on America aligns with his critique of modernity and materialism. He viewed America as emblematic of a decadent, mechanized civilization, devoid of spiritual depth and rooted in utilitarianism. For Evola, America represented the antithesis of traditional values, emphasizing instead progress, egalitarianism, and individualism—principles he rejected as corrosive to higher, hierarchical, and transcendent ideals. His disdain for America was part of his broader critique of the modern world, which he saw as a decline from a sacred, ordered, and aristocratic past.

It is crucial, both for doctrinal orientation and for the world of action, that the men of the new order clearly recognize the chain of causes and effects, as well as the essential continuity of the current that has given rise to the various political forms now clashing in the chaos of modernity. Liberalism, democracy, socialism, radicalism, and ultimately Communism and Bolshevism are not isolated phenomena but successive stages of the same degenerative process. This process began when Western man broke free from the bonds of tradition, rejected higher symbols of authority and sovereignty, and embraced an illusory individualism, reducing himself to an atomized entity rather than a conscious part of an organic, hierarchical whole. This atomization inevitably led to the tyranny of quantity, where the mass of individuals, devoid of higher ideals, succumbed to materialism and the worship of economic power.

This decline is a unified process, with each stage preparing the next. Without the French Revolution and liberalism, democracy would not have emerged; without democracy, socialism and demagogic nationalism would not have followed; and without socialism, radicalism and Communism would not have taken root. These forms, though often seen as opposing one another, are in fact interconnected, each a step in the same downward spiral. The illusion that democracy and liberalism are antithetical to Communism is a grave error. They are not opposites but different phases of the same subversion, much like dusk is not the antithesis of night but its precursor.

The so-called “liberated” governments of today, particularly in Italy, remain blind to these truths. They cling to outdated political concepts, engaging in a futile parliamentary dance while ignoring the lessons of history. What is needed is not compromise but radical intransigence—a firm rejection of all forms of political decay, whether from the Left or the so-called Right. Concessions to subversion only hasten our downfall. We must stand firm in our principles, ready to act with pure forces when the time is right.

This also requires purging ourselves of ideological distortions, which have unfortunately infected even some of our youth. They mistakenly believe that the destruction wrought by modernity is necessary for “progress,” that we must fight for some distant future rather than uphold the timeless truths that have always been the foundation of legitimate social and political order. These truths, though expressed in different forms across history, remain constant. The youth must reject the false allure of progressivism and recognize that there is no such thing as “History” as an inevitable force. Men shape history, provided they remain true to their principles.

The charge of being “reactionary” is meaningless. When faced with destruction and profanation, should we not react? We are not reactionaries in the weak sense of the word; we stand for positive, original values that do not depend on the illusory promises of a “sun of the future.” Our radicalism renders the supposed antithesis between the red “East” and the democratic “West” irrelevant. Both are manifestations of the same hostile force, working in different but converging ways to undermine Europe. Americanism, with its cult of materialism, consumerism, and economic growth, is in many ways more dangerous than Communism because it operates subtly, eroding tradition and quality through cultural and societal means rather than overt coercion. It is a Trojan horse, paving the way for collectivism under the guise of democracy.

In this context, Europe's submission to Americanism is a prelude to its ultimate abdication. Whether through military defeat or a “progressive” social crisis, the end result is the same: the complete triumph of the forces of decline. There is no middle ground. Americanism, whether intentionally or not, serves the same end as Communism—the destruction of Europe's spiritual and cultural heritage.

Title: Christianity: The Decadence of the West
Tags: #Traditionalism #SpiritualDecline #AryanCritique #AntiModern

Christians; the Western Jews.

  1. Dionysian Decadence – Christianity is a degenerate form of Dionysianism, replacing heroic transcendence with irrational faith for the weak.
  2. Faith Over Initiation – It substitutes true initiation with emotional fervor, appealing to chaotic souls rather than disciplined seekers.
  3. Degraded Mysticism – Though retaining traces of mystery traditions (for example, Orphism), Christianity reduced them to sentimentalism and exoteric dogma.
  4. Anti-Hierarchy – Its egalitarian morality (“love thy neighbor”) opposes the Aryan-Indo-European principle of sacred hierarchy.
  5. Chthonic Regression – The cult of the “Mother of God” revives pre-Indo-European Great Mother worship, undermining Olympian masculinity.
  6. Passive Redemption – Salvation through “grace” denies the heroic path of self-overcoming, promoting slave morality.
  7. Dualism & Nature – Christianity severs man from cosmic order, demonizing nature and fostering life-denying asceticism.
  8. Roman Subversion – It corroded the Roman ethos of discipline and nobility, replacing it with guilt and universalist pity.
  9. Anti-Heroic – The doctrine of original sin negates the possibility of aristocratic spiritual ascent, enforcing spiritual mediocrity.
  10. Western Judaization – By inheriting Jewish exclusivism (“I am the way”) while diluting its rigor, Christianity became a hybrid poison for the European soul.

From a doctrinal standpoint, Christianity represents a decadent form of Dionysianism. It caters to a weakened human type, emphasizing irrationality over heroic, sapiential, or initiatory spiritual development. Instead of traditional paths of transcendence, it substitutes faith—an emotional impulse of a troubled soul drawn chaotically to the supernatural. Primitive Christianity exacerbated this crisis by fixating on the imminent Kingdom of God and the stark alternatives of salvation or damnation, reinforcing faith as the primary means of liberation through the symbol of the crucified Christ.

Though Christ’s symbolism retains traces of mystery traditions (such as Orphism), Christianity ultimately degraded these into sentimentalism and confused mysticism, reducing the divine to the human. Unlike the strict legalism of traditional Judaism or true initiatory Mystery cults, Christianity became an intermediate, diluted form—a surrogate suited to a debased humanity seeking redemption through “grace” rather than self-overcoming.

This worldview was fundamentally alien to the Indo-European spirit, particularly the Roman ethos, which upheld nobility, discipline, and sacred hierarchy. The Christian God, defined by suffering and exclusivity (“I am the way, the truth, and the life”), inverted the Olympian ideal, reviving instead the Pelasgic-Dionysian motif of dying and resurrected gods under the shadow of the Great Mother. The cult of the “Mother of God” further reinforced this regression, echoing pre-Indo-European chthonic cults.

Christian morality, shaped by Southern and non-Aryan influences, promoted egalitarianism and love as supreme principles—antithetical to the Aryan heroic ideal of hierarchy and differentiation. The doctrine of original sin and the radical separation between Creator and creature deepened this dualism, framing spiritual attainment in passive terms like “grace” and “election,” while denigrating active, heroic striving.

Christianity’s supernaturalism also severed the sacred connection to nature, rejecting the symbolic and magical worldview of antiquity. Nature was demonized, paving the way for an asceticism hostile to life—a complete inversion of classical Roman and Indo-European values.

Thus, Christianity epitomizes spiritual decline, marking a shift from active transcendence to passive devotion, from sacred hierarchy to egalitarian dissolution, and from cosmic order to fractured dualism.
