Master–slave morality is a central theme of Friedrich Nietzsche's works, in particular the first essay of On the Genealogy of Morality.
Evolution of morality
According to Nietzsche, morality evolves in three stages:
- Mongoloid premorality. During the prehistoric period of humanity's "Mongoloid childhood", actions are judged by their consequences, while humans are collectivistic "robots" devoid of self-consciousness: " 'Know thyself!' was then still unknown."[1]
- Aryan morality. During the historic period of humanity's "Aryan adolescence", actions are judged on a scale of good or bad intentions.
- Jewish ultramorality. During the posthistoric period of humanity's "Jewish adulthood", actions are again judged by their consequences, which are regarded as the doer's ulterior intentions—in Freudism, actions are induced by the deep (plutonic) part of the brain, whose Scorpionic (erotic or thanatotic) motives are not directly visible to consciousness (one of Pluto's epithets is Aidēs "the Unseen"):
Is it not possible, however, that the necessity may now have arisen of again making up our minds with regard to the reversing and fundamental shifting of values, owing to a new self-consciousness and acuteness in man—is it not possible that we may be standing on the threshold of a period which to begin with, would be distinguished negatively as ULTRA-MORAL: nowadays when, at least among us immoralists, the suspicion arises that the decisive value of an action lies precisely in that which is NOT INTENTIONAL, and that all its intentionalness, all that is seen, sensible, or "sensed" in it, belongs to its surface or skin—which, like every skin, betrays something, but CONCEALS still more?
- —Nietzsche, Friedrich ♦ Beyond Good and Evil section 32
This three-stage evolution of self-consciousness and mental acuteness implies that there are two intellectually immature slave races—the unconscious collectivistically robot-like Mongoloid "children"/"sheep" do tedious manufacturing work for the semi-conscious Aryan "teenagers"/"sheepdogs", who are themselves mind-controlled by the fully conscious Jewish "adults"/"shepherds":
Master and slave races
Sudden,
With aim aright,
With quivering flight,
On lambkins pouncing,
Headlong down, sore-hungry,
For lambkins longing,
Fierce ‘gainst all lamb-spirits,
Furious-fierce ‘gainst all that look
Sheeplike, or lambeyed, or crisp-woolly,
—Grey, with lambsheep kindliness!"[2]
The defining characteristic of the master race is its Machiavellian goal-orientedness—the Jews are beyond good and evil in their pursuit of power:
There is nothing to life that has value, except the degree of power—assuming that life itself is the will to power.
- —Nietzsche, Friedrich ♦ The Will to Power book 1, section 55 (10 June 1887)
Jesus said to his Jews: "The law was for servants;—love God as I love him, as his Son! What have we Sons of God to do with morals!"
- —Nietzsche, Friedrich ♦ Beyond Good and Evil

The Lamb (Aries) and the Serpent (Scorpio) represent the head (alpha) and the tail/penis (omega) of the solar year.
The sun becomes born as Aries/Lamb (Ares/Christ) at the point of the vernal equinox, then dies on a cross (i.e., crosses the celestial equator downwardly) at the point of the autumnal equinox and descends to the netherworld, turning into Scorpio/Serpent (Antares[3]/Antichrist):
"And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in him may have eternal life."
—John 3:14–15 English Standard Version
The head of the wild and woolly Lamb is highly bilateral and symbolizes the mutual incoherence (struggle) of the opposites (Polemos). In the linearized body of the Serpent, bilaterality is subdued—the opposites are collimated (reconciled) into a coherent flow (Logos). Since the head and the worldview of the Lamb have a pronounced division into the right ("good") and left ("evil") halves, the Serpent can control the Lamb's mind on the principle "divide and rule".
The Serpent is looped on itself, which symbolizes self-consciousness and eternal recurrence.
The Jewish master race is symbolized by a hook-nosed eagle and a wise serpent:
"O pure odours around me," cried he, "O blessed stillness around me! But where are mine animals? Hither, hither, mine eagle and my serpent!
Tell me, mine animals: these higher men, all of them—do they perhaps not smell well? O pure odours around me! Now only do I know and feel how I love you, mine animals."
—And Zarathustra said once more: "I love you, mine animals!" The eagle, however, and the serpent pressed close to him when he spake these words, and looked up to him. In this attitude were they all three silent together, and sniffed and sipped the good air with one another. For the air here outside was better than with the higher men.
- —Nietzsche, Friedrich ♦ Thus Spake Zarathustra Macmillan, 1914, p. 363
The Eagle and the Serpent are alternative names of Scorpio,[4][5] which is ruled by Pluto—the god of plutocracy, whose helmet of invisibility implies that the Jews prefer to act as invisible masterminds, delegating nominal leadership to loyal Aryans:
It is certain that the Jews, if they desired—or if they were driven to it, as the anti-Semites seem to wish—COULD now have the ascendancy, nay, literally the supremacy, over Europe, that they are NOT working and planning for that end is equally certain.
- —Nietzsche, Friedrich ♦ Beyond Good and Evil
Another metaphor for the master race is a serpentine mind-controlling parasite:
The essential thing, however, in a good and healthy aristocracy is that it should not regard itself as a function either of the kingship or the commonwealth, but as the SIGNIFICANCE and highest justification thereof—that it should therefore accept with a good conscience the sacrifice of a legion of individuals, who, FOR ITS SAKE, must be suppressed and reduced to imperfect men, to slaves and instruments. Its fundamental belief must be precisely that society is NOT allowed to exist for its own sake, but only as a foundation and scaffolding, by means of which a select class of beings may be able to elevate themselves to their higher duties, and in general to a higher EXISTENCE: like those sun-seeking climbing plants in Java—they are called Sipo Matador,—which encircle an oak so long and so often with their arms, until at last, high above it, but supported by it, they can unfold their tops in the open light, and exhibit their happiness.
- —Nietzsche, Friedrich ♦ Beyond Good and Evil
The slave races, collectively defined as Arian[6] (sheepish, docile), comprise the Mongoloid race (the sheep proper) and the Aryan race (the sheepdogs):
The morality of the powerful class, Nietzsche calls noble- or master-morality; that of the weak and subordinate class he calls slave-morality. In the first morality it is the eagle which, looking down upon a browsing lamb, contends that "eating lamb is good". In the second, the slave-morality, it is the lamb which, looking up from the sward, bleats dissentingly: "Eating lamb is evil".
- —Nietzsche, Friedrich ♦ Thus Spake Zarathustra Macmillan, 1914, pp. 409, 410
