Esoteric grifters revive Nazi race theory and call it DNA cleansing

Christian Poeschke

A blistering report from the Vienna International Sceptics’ Association has shone a harsh light on a booming esoteric racket where energy coaches claim they can rinse away the spiritual residue of previous foreign partners from a woman’s DNA for 150 euros.

Dubbed Telegonie-Löschung, the method is a soft marketing label for a long-dead race theory hauled out of the nineteenth century and polished until it looks like wellness.

The report wastes no time linking this fantasy to its ideological ancestors. It states that telegony is connected to racial hygiene and to the volkisch ethnonationalist worldviews of the nineteenth century.

The same document then explains that the idea later entered directly into National Socialist ideology. So this is not just fringe and heritage pseudoscience with a history of doing real damage.

Berlin’s Telegonie-Löschung Basencoach Christian Poeschke [pictured], who flogs the whole thing as a spiritual detox for modern women. His pitch claims he can remove “sexual energy that stays in the woman’s system”, which sounds suspiciously like Fremdblut contamination.  For those who came in late, like Fremdblut contamination meant “foreign blood contamination” and was the Nazi fantasy that any trace of supposedly non-Aryan ancestry made a person impure, dangerous, and in need of careful bureaucratic harassment.

We sat through one of his YouTube videos so you don’t have to, and the guts of it is that if a zebra has sex with a “pure-bred” horse, the foals from that horse with other horses will show a tendency to have stripes. Also, men will not get on so well with their partners if the woman’s first partner was of “foreign blood” due to the energy problems. He chillingly mentions how to purify the blood stock, it was necessary to kill animals, "and humans too." Unless of course you have a magic method to purify the blood.

His former partner in energetic theatre, Sanja Cutura Wolf, pushed the same story until her website evaporated. The report points out that both pages have identical layouts and text. That level of cloning means that, typically, someone has a franchise model and forgot to file the trademarks.

The racial theory element becomes even less subtle when you look at the services on offer. One provider advertises cleansings across 12 generations. Anyone who has ever seen a Nazi Aryan certificate will recognise the number immediately. You could drop this directly into a 1930s genealogy office and no one would blink.

The modern crowd has pilfered language and myths from right esoteric circles soaked in racial mysticism. The Sceptics report notes repeated references to Rita laws (fantasy ‘ancient laws’ invented in the 1990s and 2000s inside the Russian neo-pagan, Slavic-Aryan and esoteric nationalist scene) and Slavic Aryan teachings, which it labels as far-right esoteric narratives.

You would need a strong stomach to wade through the groups that promote this stuff. Most of them believe ancient Aryans lived in Siberia and communicated through cosmic light beams.

It gets better. The same telegony preachers swim in the same digital ponds as followers of the Anastasia movement. The researchers found comments invoking Anastasia's family homesteads, which is a tidy euphemism for an ethno-national back-to-the-land utopia. Austria’s sect watchdog has already said the movement peddles anti-democratic and racial ideology.

At the heart of all this spiritual theatre is a deeply misogynistic worldview. The report says women are framed as carriers of foreign information that must be cleansed. Swap a few nouns and you have the exact logic of century-old racial purity manuals.

None of the providers has medical credentials. Yet they throw around diagnostic terms as if they were auditioning for a hospital drama. The report warns their methods violate the professional code of human energetics in multiple ways. Austrian consumer law applies, but enforcement appears to hover somewhere between symbolic and imaginary.

Some of these mystics bundle their rituals into luxurious multi-step packages costing more than 450 euros. The report calls the whole framing biologistic and misogynistic and warns of ideological overlaps with far-right and conspiracy scenes. The tone barely hides the reality that the scene is built from repackaged racist folklore and a generous amount of grift.

What the report uncovers is a wellness industry that has grafted National Socialist wiring onto a modern self-help chassis. The past is not resurfacing by accident. It is being retailed in tidy 50-minute sessions where imaginary impurities are rinsed from imaginary chromosomes, and the only real cleansing is the sort happening to the client’s bank balance.
