The SS was called the "Schutz Staffel"(Safety Staff).
Don't get the wrong picture now, this post is not about questioning that, but there was a Group inside the "Schutz Staffel". This group was only for Generals and similar class in this group, and you could probably count the number of members on two or three hands. Just that this group was a secret group. This group was so secret, noone
but the mebers knew of their existance. They called themself the "Schwarze Sonne" or Neu-Templer. The only reason we know, is because there were letters and documents proving their existance, found in the "Wewlsburg". This was one of the countless castles that the nazis had occupied for themselves, and in the Wewelsburg's case it was noone else than !SS Reichsführer Heinrich Himmler! himself. And in his own private wing of the castle he got the black sun (Schwarze Sonne) marmored into the floor.
(I would love to post a pic of it but, here in germany I could get put into jail for posting that symbol)
but here's a link ;) --> Schwarze Sonne.jpg
Another thing proving their existance is a socalled "Totenkopf Ring". This Picture Shows Himmlers Original "Totenkopf Ring". Each Member of the "Schwarze Sonne" received a such ring, after 3 years of outstanding achievements. It was symbolizing Odin's Silver Ring on which oaths are sworn. What does the Black Sun symbol stand for?
Here:
The doctrine of the Black Sun, reaching back to ancient Sumer
and Akkadia, is that there are two suns, the "white" sun, the sun
that we see at the center of our physical solar system, and the
"black" sun, a "hidden" sun of (spiritual) illumination. In some
versions of the myth, it is thought to reside at the center of our
galaxy. Other embellishments place it as one of the causes of the
immortality and reincarnation of the soul. In Babylonian mythology
it was also associated with the coming of the "King of kings" and
the establishment of a New Babylon. And finally, in some
variations, not only is it associated with the center of the galaxy,
but also with the uttermost "Hyperborea" and "Thule", the
legendary stellar home and celestial origin of the Aryan race. The
doctrine received further modification in ancient Egypt.

We also know that the group was very esoterical and that, their rituals would definately be rated as occult, but what exactly this group was about and what they did...we will never know...
