Bro, the fucking Nazis started that one. They were huge on "storm" imagery, that's part of why you got SS lightning bolts, stormtroopers, etc.

The lightning bolts are actually a fake Nordic rune created by Von List for "Victory." The actual rune means "Sun." Himmler was basically a psychotic D&D nerd. He had plans to completely eradicate any religion in Germany except his made up Nordic religion.
