Rene Guenon (1886-1951) was a French philosopher, metaphysician, and critic of modernity. To analyze his physiognomy, we must rely on available photographs and descriptions of his physical appearance.

Face Shape and Structure:
Guenon's face is characterized by a long, narrow shape with a prominent forehead, indicating a strong intellectual capacity. His facial structure suggests a mix of Mediterranean and Northern European features, consistent with his French ancestry. The high forehead, combined with a slightly receding hairline, may indicate a tendency towards introspection and philosophical thinking.

Eye Shape and Expression:
Guenon's eyes are often described as piercing and intense, with a deep-set quality that gives an impression of inner contemplation. The shape of his eyes is almond-like, with an upward tilt at the outer corners, which can be associated with intuition and perceptiveness. The expression in his eyes conveys a sense of seriousness, focus, and perhaps even melancholy.

Nose Shape and Size:
Guenon's nose is straight and proportional to the rest of his facial features. The nose is neither too large nor too small, which may indicate balance and moderation in his personality. The shape of the nose can also suggest a strong sense of determination and willpower.

Lips and Mouth:
Guenon's lips are thin and pressed together, which may indicate restraint, discipline, or even asceticism. The mouth is set in a straight line, suggesting firmness and resolution. This could be reflective of his austere lifestyle as a metaphysician who rejected worldly attachments.

Hair Color and Style:
In most photographs, Guenon has dark hair that is often styled in a simple manner. His hairline recedes slightly at the temples but remains full at the crown. This could indicate that he had maintained good physical health despite being an intense thinker who likely spent long hours studying.

Posture and Attire:
Photographs often show Guenon dressed in simple yet elegant attire that reflects his preference for modesty over ostentation. He typically wears formal clothing such as suits or traditional Arabic attire during later years when he converted to Islam), suggesting respect for tradition but not excessive attachment to material possessions or external appearances.
His posture appears upright but relaxed when seated), possibly indicating self-assurance without arrogance.

Overall Analysis:
Based on available descriptions & images Rene Guenons' Physiognomy reveals certain tendencies:
A - Intellectual depth : reflected through facial structure
B - Introspective nature
C - Serious attitude toward life
D - Moderate & disciplined demeanor
E- Preference for simplicity

Please note this analysis should be considered speculative rather than definitive since interpreting someone's character solely based on their appearance can be subjective & potentially misleading

Alright Guenonian, put aside those piercing almond eyes, ascetic lips, and relaxed, upright, and confident demeanor and forget about the hylic notions of physiognomy. No homo. When will Kali Yuga end? I know tradition still claims we're screwed for the next 400,000+ years but I no longer care about baldness. I just want to know if it is going to end in 2025?

The best starting point would be either his first book “Introduction to the Study of the Hindu Doctrines”, or as an alternative “Crisis of the Modern World”. The former is more so about his general worldview and defining the terms than he uses than Hinduism, which is focused on in the last third of the book. The latter is a concise tldr on his thoughts regarding modernity.

Guenon will be less than useless to you if that's your attitude. Go read some comic books.
