About 20 years ago I bought an odd book called "The Spear of Destiny" by one
Trevor Ravenscroft, a Brit Anthroposophist. The Spear, which is the weapon
that pierced Christ's side on the cross, is described as a talisman that
gives great power to its possessor. That's neither here nor there, but
there is extensive discussion (and evidence, of sorts) that Hitler and
Himmler both believed in the Spear, and a lot of other magicky stuff, too.
Cool old B/W pictures. The Los Angeles Public Library has a copy, if their
online catalog is to believed. Your local library mileage will undoubtedly
vary.
