If you are unaware, the Internet Archive, including the Wayback Machine, has been hacked and is not operational. Given the scale of their archival work, they surely have backups. I am told it will be a matter of weeks before things are online again. Until then, browsing my site, which links to a lot of archived material, may be a challenge. Apologies!

There was some overlap between the otherkin and Aristasian community, to say the least. In case anyone is curious about feelings of otherness, nonhumanity, and alterhumanity within the context of Aristasia, I've written about it here: https://aristasia.guide/such#otherkin

I simply can't remember if I'd shared this on the feed before, but it seemed pertinent right now.

Aristasia experienced massive changes circa 2005 that ultimately led to the publication of several novels meant to explore the group's beliefs in a fictional setting, including a space adventure and a strange isekai, both said to have been written by "an anime character." Read about it towards the bottom, here: https://aristasia.guide/online.html#bridgehead

Don't misunderstand. The Aristasians didn't become anime fictionkin, though the feelings of otherness are reminiscent of, well... the kin community, either way.

To summarize: in essence, they felt that anime styles were the closest (though nowhere near exact nor perfect) representation of their soul or essential real form, but no specific anime nor character.

Either way, this is one part of the movement I did (and still do, to a degree) sympathize (and even empathize) with, but I'll save those thoughts for another page. This thread is too long.

Recent updates include a rewrite on the page about Aristasia's fascination with physical discipline. Some clippings a friend found address the origin of it, or at least hint at the time period. I also added some information about the fascist John H. Tyndall of the British National Problem, and how/why he was involved in all this. Mind content warnings as usual. https://aristasia.guide/updates

Just to warn everyone: I'm working on an update to the page currently. Mind the TWs. https://aristasia.guide/discipline

I have said on this page that I found no evidence of this "physical discipline" fascination in the earliest Madrian writings. Miss Starry on Tumblr has presented me with clippings and scans demonstrating otherwise.

Time flies. In October, it will have been a year since I began this project and joined neocities. I would like to hope that I'll have most of the planned material posted by November, but every site is always under construction. I've got other sites on neocities I'm working on. I do believe I've learned a lot from this project, both in technical terms and in terms of understanding my own life experiences.

This Tumblr post, by another person who has been researching Aristasia this year (but wasn't a member) is rather illuminating: https://tellurian-in-aristasia.tumblr.com/post/756272310620766208/what-i-used-to-know

A section on the earliest incarnation of Aristasia's spiritual belief system - Lux Madriana, and how even back then, it garnered criticisms that would follow the group even after a dramatic schism. https://aristasia.guide/mists.html#madrians

New section about Aristasia's very complicated relationship with other alternative spiritual movements. Features guys on AOL babbling about "occult warfare" and Baphomet. https://aristasia.guide/such.html#magic

I've posted significant updates the Storms section concerning Aristasia's apparent ties to fascism in the early 1990s, their use of fascist iconography, and I provide some speculation about this. Expect more on this. Also of note is a small section on their usage of Aristasia Pura to justify things, and about use of occult tropes in this. https://aristasia.guide/storms.html#fash

There are content warnings for this (you can clearly imagine), and, naturally, for the entire Storms section, as noted on the page.
