Sound design on this video is the bomb. Do you think you could make an ambient sounds version of this video with the voice over cut and just the sound of the mowing and the choir? I would listen to that all the time while I was working if you made it.
😁😁😁😁So you hate the sound of our speaker's voice...😂😂😂! Anyway look at the description of the video, there's a link to music and the sound of scythe! Enjoy it!
It is amazing, yes! Thousand years after adoption of Christianity. In Slavic countries, quite a few customs that originated during pagan times still survive even today!
@@AloyImpact Well, as you know Christianity tried to reduce Wodan to a mere demon, yet Wodan is probably the continuation of the Sky Father of the IndoEuropeans. And Sky Father created - everything 😄. Thus Wodan is in everything. Perhaps Norse Germanic nations put emphasis on his martial prowess, but he was not only a warrior... as you can see continental Germanic nations pictured him as much much more.
And so, like the so called religious of today, the ancients, although considered pagans and/or heathens were very much in tune with the cosmos and perhaps I may daresay even more so. But the connections then were more direct as in the practice of hailing each of the gods specifically as was suited for the occasion or the natural bounty proffered. Such as the god/goddess of the vine and winemaking i.e., Dionysus, or Demeter for the grain and the harvest. I suppose the wiccans and other earth based religions aim for something similar. The song "John Barleycorn", talks about the little nut of barley being subjected to various torture as given by man to produce bread and fermented drink as if the plant possessed a soul. Perhaps if there exists deities for flora and fauna, then might they then contain spirit?
Just a quick explanation - words pagan and heathen are synonyms, thus one can not be pagan and/or heathen. Pagan is heathen and vice versa. As for flora and fauna containing spirit, yes, heathens had sacred groves dedicated to a certain deity. All the plants there were sacred because the spirit of that deity resided in them. I belive the problem with "modern" humans is (worthless, modern) science, that has become a moder religion riddled with dogmas of the most narrow minded and arrogant type; and general weakness and laziness of body and mind - which all lead to atheism. The most degraded state humans can lower themselves to. As for Wicca, to me, they are hippies of the modern paganism. They mix together everything and in the end, end up with one big nothing, destroying themselves with spells and incantations of the darkest kind. Most of the Wiccans come from satanism of this or that kind, or end up in satanism which in itself is non european as such. Thus, we have no interest in it.
Good thing we now have tractors and modern machines. Our modern hard work is mostly cognitive. And there is no shame in thinking up and optimizing for a better system (tax system, social system etc.) for everyone. Our modern hard work is also not falling prey to any ideological pit falls. To some degree this is much harder than any hard labor we ever did but than again we should consider ourselves lucky that we came this far.
By even thinking that an old agricultural or any other old custum is linked to any ideology you have already fallen deep into an ideological (woke) chasm. As for machinery...they are but tools of mass (GMO) production that is in the end completely useless....why ask from mother Earth more then what we neeed? ... Besides machines pollute the land as well. Anyway if you think you work harder then peoples of old, you don't ....
Hailsa! Just found your channel. Love the Heathen ways! I am spreading your channel on other media, trying to awaken our Folk.
Thank you for liking our channel!
Wow, this is a hidden part of our culture that we need to adapt to the modern practice. Hail and thank you.
Indeed we do. That's why we did the video. Just wait for the next ones 😁
@@Wulthus I really enjoy watching your content, I look forward to your future content.

Outstanding information. My grandfather was a farmer from Schleswig-Holstein. He spoke Platzdeutsch still as well as Hochdeutsch.

very cool, didn't know these traditions would survive all the way to 18th century germany

Wow that’s really cool to learn even farmers had rituals for the All Father.
Indeed. Isn't that what "All" means in Allfather!?
@@Wulthus never thought of it like that. Quite eye opening.

If done for the Gods, almost any task can become noble. Great inspiration here, thank you for the video
Np, glad you liked it.
