Valhalla - a new perspective
In today’s video i talk about valhalla.
And how everything we know about the famous pagan afterlife may be a misinterpretation…
Bold claims, but i back them up.
I go back to original sources and interpret them symbolically, and make the case that valhalla could infact be more akin to the buddist nirwana or enlightenment.
If you want to look ar valhalla as a tool for personal empowerment i recommend this video i did a while back.

Pagan symbols like tbe othala rune and the valknut are sometimes associated with intolerance & racism. Today we dive in the history books to find out why. And specifically look at how much of paganism the nazi’s & specifically the SS had intretrated in their world view. I also briefly speak on Himmlers quest to find thor’s hammer.

What if i told you that odin’ divine essence could be found in our DNA? I know that’s a big claim, but in this video i make a damn good case for it if i do say so myself .. It’s not only that he is the divine essense in ourselves, he is the divine essense in the cosmos. I also talk about 3 categories when it comes to people and how they relate to norse mythology… and i add a fourth.. The idea o...

Jack & the beanstalk - Meaning & symbolism
Your interpretation sounds good, perhaps it's where the battle fatigued warriors go to heal and prepare for enlightenment.
I really enjoyed this new interpretation of Valhalla. Because now I can see that video games like Assassin’s Creed Valhalla incorrectly portray Valhalla as a place where Vikings just fight and then start fighting people over and over again. I realize now that Valhalla is more of a place of enlightenment, wisdom and learning. It is the Viking version of heaven and not a place of war but a place of paradise. 🌈 🌲 ☀️
Geri is greed and freki is frenzy. The greedy one is your hunter wolf, the frenzied one is your scrapper fighter. Odin as the general would have men who hunt (ulfhednar), and men who fight (berserker). And thus these qualities are deep in our primordial soul.
I am inclined to believe that your interpretation is likely correct or close to correct. While we do not have the luxury of interviewing ancient people as to their viewpoints, we have access to information as to the totality of the circumstances that goes beyond the slander of the medieval church. I suspect that etymology coupled with comparisons to other pagan systems derived from Indo-European roots might shed more light on this subject. We cannot forget to embrace our own experiences as this is a living and breathing system. Thanks again for another insightful video, I cannot wait to share this with my family.
I like your interpretation, I stay my hand from arguing my own understanding in here, i learn yours and I will consider it in my broader look on the ways of the Allfather... in your advocacy i should say, you are absolutely right about our ancestors, they were wise and smart, and they were incredibly good at storytelling, stories that mattered to be heard and learned from, stories with life lessons all learned the hard way woven into their fabric. A good powerful and wise mythology actually should be capable of producing a wide variety of answers depending on the need of those who seek their wisdom. The nature of Valhalla is one such case... as a second point, imagine that Norsemen, Germanic tribes, Hellenics, Persians and Indians all share a common ancestry and so cultural root, a lot is common between us, and so as Buddhism is driven from Hinduism in the first place, and Hinduism is an old old tree, to share such concept in between people of the same root makes much sense, only imagine the word ignition is a Germanic word, in Russian used as Aguan for fire and Indian has it as Agni... we all call our mothers with a variety of the same word, and do so for brother and father, perhaps once for sister even... we share much and ideas can last far beyond words can...
Interesting thought gungnir representing wisdom, we talked about being "armed with knowledge" after all
If you are armed with knowlidge… you never miss… maybe thats the symbolism
You make good cense with this And of course in a great hall it’s better to remove your weapons and feast The best part of the valhol had to be the feasting
Nicely said! In our minds, we can create an endless to-do list of all the things we think we must do to accomplish. Then the Gods have completely different plans for us. Let go, accept, surrender, and allow is the message.
this is a great perspective, it does make sense that the current information of Valhalla is twisted interpretation by christians. Looks like i will redo my research on Valhalla with this perspective in mind.
I feel it to.
As soon as you started talking about owls , I was reminded for the first time in my awake consciousness that last night two or three owls appeared in my dream in a barn with my dad, we approached them and they were not fearful and didn’t fly away just looked at us how they do. Stood up shocked that it revived a memory from my dream of last night. Last night I was dwelling on connecting with my ancestors, the need to be near a flame or a fire soon and commune with nature. Interesting stuff also saw a video about my twin flame on UA-cam last night as I was thinking about flames and my ancestors. Weird 24 hours. I never think about synchronicity much or about dreams or anything so just an interesting few days that’s all 🎉😂
New Subscriber! Me Again^^
We definitely do know about Witte Wieven in the city
I am hot headed naturally but aspire to be like the owl as I age . Great video as usual . Thank you .
Modern western pagans are usually very smart people.
I remember one morning when I was walking to work I looked up and saw a barred owl looking right at me and then it flew away 😮 I took at as a sign of good luck 🦉
❤
Very wise advice. Thank you sir. I enjoy your posts. Tot ziens
It's a bit lonely to be an owl. But not to be an owl would be a disservice to myself and to the gods. Hail.
They are eating the dogs, they are eating the cats.... But keep your hands away from my Owl! Great message!
Kijk nou. Het hakenkreuz... bloed en aarde
You're saying that "connection to the earth... the place is sacred" but without mentioning why the grounds were sacred - they were picked by the God/Goddess to be their domain. Just like humans, Gods have difference preferences and favourite surroundings, i.e forests, lakes, rivers, Plainfields, hills etc. Thanks for teaching us about Tanfana. European Pagan here
Thank you for your wonderful video The name Tanfana caught my attention. I'm always on the lookout for information about her. Unfortunately, there isn't much. The Roman attacks took place in Germany in Essen - Stoppenberg. There was also a Fantana sanctuary there
It's important for men to face the fear and come through it. It's different for women , pregnancy and child birth are a natural initiation into womanhood . Men need to learn self responsibility , then responsibility to protect family and community. It's easy to spot a man that has faced the fear.
I think you have a limited idea of what a woman is and can be. Not all women need men to protect them. Supporting a rigid binary for gender rolls doesn't help women or most men anyway. That's some patriarchal bs there. 🏹
Local gods, spirits, wights could be more important for us than the more well known gods.
Love you brother, great video
Lol😂
The Sioux Indians said - Hoka hey.
To get quality information to know the secrets to properily slicking your hair back.
Good idea. I already develop new initiation rituals for our times. Rites of passage, community building rituals and so forth. I hope more people will do so. Our materialistic western society is much too deprived of meaning, orientation and mystic!
Live and learn
Good thoughts
You can’t be a pagan unless you revere your ancestors. Your blood. The NS were the most modern attempt at a true European polytheistic revival. Cope all you want, but your country is being overrun by Turks, and Europeans need a robust religion to justify a pro European ideology.
Perfect moment, ik ben aan een nummer aan het werken over freya maar het is rap. En ik twijfel er redelijk over maar het resultaat is best dope al is het refrein wel gesampled.

One of the best quotes I heard in my life. That was Great man!thank you ✨🌿 Hail Odin,from a persain Zoroastrian that also believes in all ancient gods
If you’re interested in the idea of multiple conscious entities within the same brain, take a look at split brain research. VS Ramachandran has done some very interesting work on this.
I'd rather replace ritual and ceremony with art.

There are no gods, only ancestors and descendants.
And its not just symbolism. Its about building strength and toughness and building confidence. Its also a test to seperate the weak from the strong. Evolutionary biologists have observed hazing and initiation rituals in most social animals. To maintain hierarchies, testing new pack members, strengthening the weakest members etc.
Most of the most intense hazing and initiation rituals Ive taken part in have been done by Christians. Between the military, martial arts, sports, fire department, and other fraternal organizations.
You dont think christian knights had initiation rituals? Early Christians had these as well. Fasting for example was a big thing akin to an initiation ritual. Jesus himself fasting for 40 days was an initiation ritual into his godhood
No Jesus was already Godly...sorta the while reason he came to earth 😂
Initiation rituals never died. They've been reduced in the past 10 years because of woke leftism. But the military, college fraternities, non-college fraternities, biker clubs, sports teams, fire departments, police departments etc. all have loads of initiation rituals
How would this work for those of us who practice alone?
Find a group. We are social animals, we aren't meant to be isolated
I have found an alternative that works for me, at least. German Zoomers use A LOT of Arabic, Turkish and Kurdish words, I refuse to do so. Actual Arabs, Turks or Kurds that I talk to, respect that, which makes it look implausible, that I could be a racist. I use Germanic vocabulary in place where my German fail to do so, isn't that also quite symbolic?
You make very good videos with good content, I’m 59 and have been seeking initiation for years, but unless you can afford courses that are outrageous, there is no help, maybe one day.
Je zit nog in de matrix, jongeman. Word wakker.
