It does sound like paradise. It would truly take a group of us coming together as a community to do this. I hope this will trigger a conversation in the group.
Thank you for the shout out I appreciate it very much. I always learn something new from your videos, what you said near the end about employers not wanting you to have time off so true and keeping us divided.
Honestly... I really want to move to Norway. I might not have any Northern Germanic blood in me, I actually have Central Germanic and Native American blood but, I've always been fascinated with the Norse. A big part of me really wishes the Norse Paganism became the dominate religion instead of Christianity. I have nothing against Christianity, I was raised Methodist, but... I eventually became spiritual. Even moreso when I started learning more about Wicca, and Norse Paganism. Another big thing is I really love the music groups Eivør, Danheim, Rúnfell, and Heilung, when it comes to Heilung I reaaaallly enjoy In Maidjan. But anyway, I really love your channel! I've learned SO MUCH, and I've even learned the differences between Norway, Danish & Swedish vikings. Keep it up! 🥰
we live in the most comfortable time of human history. People that say "oh I want to live like my ancestors" will probably be surprised how hard it was, especially during cold seasons. No plumbing, running water, showers, cellphones, doctors, schools - most people wouldn't last a couple weeks. It's mostly psychological. Just look at SCA events - people can't live without heat in their tent or a cooler, not even for a week-end or a week. And living like you imagine - a village with a few families - has been tried in the 60's and 70's and failed for several reasons. Throwing a bunch of strangers together that have not grown up together or have any family ties doesn't work well with the current population. You are dealing with people that have this belief and lifestyle NOT embedded in them. Their mind will always wander off to wherever it was raised. I live this lifestyle, but by myself, and even then I get setbacks from the "old life".
@@norsemagicandbeliefs8134 I was trying to help out a young kid who is interested in our faith today on Reddit. I linked your channel in the comments and almost immediately got swarmed by SJWs calling you a bigot who doesn't read the sources lmao. They have a "Fake pagans to avoid" excel spreadsheet that they are plastering in every subreddit. You are listed as an unreliable source/bigot and many others like Tom Rowsell from Survive the Jive are listed as well. They even have "proof" of your bigotry linked in the spreadsheet. It's just a link to a comment from the creator of the list on reddit saying that you are a bigot. I got quite a laugh from this person's reasoning in that comment, it's because you apparently don't think Loki was gender queer. Figured you should know that you are high profile for the SJWs now lmao.
I wonder also how rules will be implemented here? Since humans need this. You need laws that apply to this time also i asume i have a lot of question about how this would work in the humans of more than 1000 years after those comunities and the advance as societies and culture I am digging in your channel eveey day I try and watch at least 5 videos cause i feel strongly drawn to this way of life and to norseman old costumes i have myself norse blood although i originallly come from very far i did a dna test to find my ancestry and suspiciouns were clarified.
Hey man found your channel recently and it's very interesting! I like it! You cover our history in a laid back kinda way and that's great, you seem to know how to get the message across and the content you've done so far is well chosen! Skål!
On new year's at midnight, my dad runs around the house outside counterclockwise 3 times singing ... our folk tradition has survived, at least in my family. Some years, he does it just in his shorts and boots. 😂😅
Fortunately the company I work for gives us the summer and winter solstice off as paid holidays and we can take any time off we need for any other ceremonies we need to do that come up in the year. The company is a Canadian Indigenous organization and its important to the company that for those of us that follow the ancestral path have the opportunity to without losing their income. It's written right into our policies and procedures. It's a pretty sweet perk.
This is a great video with lots of information. I would love to see this goal/dream you have become a reality and I, for one, would also love to join in to such a Pagan homesteading community. You are definitely not alone in having dreams of these things. Living in such a community would indeed be magical.
My friends and I will be having a small gathering gor sigrblot. We've got a camp site on a patch of farmland that we use. We'll have a small hall (9'x20) but it's a start
Hello, i also just stumbled upon your channel doing some research about my Genealogy. Because i just found out i am 20% Skandinavien from my Mothers side.. all my life i have felt a deep connection, interest and appreciation for Norse Culture, History and Mythology. Im glad i found your channel. Very insightful and informative. Thank you for sharing your insight with us. Greetings from Germany

I've kind of been drawn to Scandinavian history and the Norse Pagan religion/beliefs for a long time. Just recently though I had a dream where I moved to Norway even though I had never really thought of doing so seriously. I totally would if I had any idea on how to do that.
I hope to buy a house with an old barn and convert it to a Viking Hall for night-long feasts any time of the year. Our family is huge and we regularly get together at least every month for birthdays.
Thank you for explaining this in such great detail, it is good to find someone that is so dedicated and serious about this subject. I wish you every success in reaching your goal.
I'm hoping to be able to just in my own personal capacity in the next few years, barring any surprises or health issues. It would be interesting (understatement of the year) to be able to partake in a larger scale event.
I have to say that I really enjoy your videos. And agree with 95% of your conclusions. No one agrees 100% witch is normal. I have done my research similar to yours just not as in depth. Thank you for your time and knowledge and keep educating people. Skal
That's one of the things I like about Viking reenactment. Not only do we get to dress like our ancestors in real natural fibers, we get to fight as close as we can like them and we have the numbers an resources to do amazing Blot 🔥 Great project I be looking foward to see it coming together 👍🏻 I'll check out matias work
Count me in! I'm trying to build something similar, but scaled down to fit in a Renaissance faire. Or at least until it gets big enough to build in real life
Man, there’s a wall of stones just like that on the Appalachian Trail right in my area. I wouldn’t guess the trail makers were the ones to go through the trouble of erecting it but not sure (it’s pretty tall and the boulders that form it are friggin huge). I’ll have to look that up…
Sacrifice, giving. Lets cut to the quick on this one. There's no limit to what or how much takers will take! So limit what you give to what makes you feel good without being made a fool of!
You know it brother, our goals align. I have never been a slave to a corporate owner and am well on my way to making millions and making this a reality for us all. Many of our ancestors were traders, they gathered wealth, the businessmen of past times. Jobs are important for a society to function but the modern job is simply slavery, slavery that I for one will never take part in. Let's make this a reality together.
Great video brother, it’s so great to see someone else sharing my dream I have a true passion and cannot wait to see this come to pass. I’d love to help in any way I can, hail ❤️
We always try and push for three days The hardest part is getting everyone organized Most larger organizations today convert over church buildings the Grove has seem to lost most of it's sacred function
Slaughter house story The worksite was like a frat house. Coworkers once drank blood fresh from a bull throat(in a cup). Its like a crazy energy drink. They then used it like a hazing ritual.
If you want to reconstruct prayers for the sacrifices you can use the Roman tripartite prayer format which I know works. The first part is the invocation of the deity, the second is argument where you'll tell the deity why it should carry out what you want it to, and the third part is the offering itself. Here is an example in both Latin and English. Mars pater, te precor quaesoque uti sies volens propitius mihi domo familiaeque nostrae, quoius re ergo agrum terram fundumque meum suovitaurilia circumagi iussi, uti tu morbos visos invisosque, viduertatem vastitudinemque, calamitates intemperiasque prohibessis defendas averruncesque; utique tu fruges, frumenta, vineta virgultaque grandire beneque evenire siris, pastores pecuaque salva servassis duisque bonam salutem valetudinemque mihi domo familiaeque nostrae; harumce rerum ergo, fundi terrae agrique mei lustrandi lustrique faciendi ergo, sicuti dixi, macte hisce suovitaurilibus lactentibus inmolandis esto; Mars pater, eiusdem rei ergo macte hisce suovitaurilibus lactentibus esto. Father Mars, I pray and beseech thee that thou be gracious and merciful to me, my house, and my household; to which intent I have bidden this suovetaurilia to be led around my land, my ground, my farm; that thou keep away, ward off, and remove sickness, seen and unseen, barrenness and destruction, ruin and unseasonable influence; and that thou permit my harvests, my grain, my vineyards, and my plantations to flourish and to come to good issue, preserve in health my shepherds and my flocks, and give good health and strength to me, my house, and my household. To this intent, to the intent of purifying my farm, my land, my ground, and of making an expiation, as I have said, deign to accept the offering of these suckling victims; Father Mars, to the same intent deign to accept the offering of these suckling offering. - Cato's prayer (Suovetaurilia, from De re rustica, 2.1.10
Hopefully one day when I'm old enough and independent enough I can join this stuff all the stuff you described sounded quite fun hopefully you're alive by the time this is possible
You should also think about fashion then. Get something that carry the soul from the past, but will not feel too out of place either in contemporary time either. Great to have dreams! That’s here when people may say that one is crazy and shake their heads.. but really, we live fucking once in our lifetime and the world is in reality one big sandbox, so absolutely go for it, if that’s something you truly yearn for!
When can we get your norse jewelry ie. necklace, rings in the USA. Also what was your favorite viking name again?? I watched the video but can’t remember what episode it was. Thank you very much. I enjoy your channel and look forward too it✌️
You'll get there sooner than you think. I'm getting involved with real estate now and I have some other financial stuff going on, once it gets going it's pretty fast. When are you restocking the jewelry, I want a mjolnir? I already ordered the earrings!!
I'm actually hoping to get a ministry started someday. Goal is a village where we farm and raise crops and animals for running a soup kitchen and a free rehab clinic. I live in ranch country so hopefully I can make this happen since I'm not too far from Los Angeles and it needs the help
vitamin therapy will help a lot. alcohol, sugar, and carbs deplete B vitamins and drug addicts lack NAC. and everyone needs more vitamin C (liposomal is the best oral vitamin C)
I have a small homestead and working on building something similar for our yearly celebrations. Hoping to pick up the couple of acres next to us because it's got a beautiful young oak Grove in one corner❤️ I'll be building a roundhouse after the fashion of my native roots and it'll be for family. I'd love to invite friends but they're all christians. Maybe one day I'll have pagan friends lol.
Your idea intrigued me . I am not sure where you are planning for your dream happen . Norway? LA? I was wondering if you ever considered another state to build your village. Since Minnesota has a strong Norwegian heritage. They even believe they discovered a Ruin Stone near Duluth. I would have to believe they performed these religious rituals here on American soil as well . The land in both Minnesota or even the U.P of Michigan would be incredibly economical to do this . Versus California. I also believe this could draw a lot of outside attention to your dream . Good Luck . Best wishes .
Years ago I fought MMA, I knocked out my opponent in 36 seconds, and I wish I could have worn a shirt promoting glima. Do you think that the Gods favor the sacrifices made by those who work hard as they train, workout and grind out the attributes necessary for fighting? There really is a different energy about those who are dedicated martial artists, and I just wonder how the demands of it affect our standing with the gods.
@@norsemagicandbeliefs8134 I think so too. There are just so many personal attributes that can only be realized through warrior training. Not just the athletic ones either. Eventually the training crosses over into moral, psychological, and spiritual development.
I wish I could be in your community/tribe. I'd love to help reinvigorate and further the old ways in community based on them. Little to no technology, old traditions, good people around and good food. It would be a dream come true.
@@HroduuulfSonOfHrodger I could bring something to the community, I make mead as often as I can, but honey is expensive, especially when the batches come out to 6 gallon each.
@@kennethmoore625 That's why you have to have honeybee hives within the community. We have 1 and are adding 1 each year. We just finally found our homestead recently here in Amish country PA. We started with chickens, ducks, and geese, then honeybees, and now turkeys. We'll eventually add sheep, goats, pigs, cows, and horses. We are butchering a lamb this week from a neighboring farm to learn the process. We also bought a quarter cow and next year will up it to half a cow until we can start raising our own for milk and meat. But yeah, I have a book and vids on making mead and ale, but haven't had the money to purchase all of the special little items I know you need. We have the honey but not the stuff. You have the stuff, but not the honey. Too bad we couldn't barter if you lived closer. You can also teach others how to make mead themselves. This is all about self-sufficiency ultimately for whenever civilization decides to collapse. It feels as if that is right around the corner now. Haha!
Suggestion your may queen selection happening before sacrifice and she is your singer as you circle. To me I think Odin would be honored by her representative singing for him
@@norsemagicandbeliefs8134 Thanks, got to look at new ways of doing things. I was also thinking with how food that is left as a sacrifice is left in the woods, I was thinking could we donate food to a homeless shelter or a local community pantry as a way of doing sacrifice for us that live in the city, pray over it before we donate it
@@SandraInSpace It’s intended for nature, so it wouldn’t go to waste. But if you live in a city… well, I doubt you’ll find any sacred space there for the ritual offering anyway? I would take day a trip outside the city for this, find a spot that is special and accessible to wildlife, undisturbed and preferably a grove/spring/waterfall as examples, and would never do this inside a city or your home. It doesn’t have to be much food (to offer) so I wouldn’t worry about that myself, enough for surrounding animals to benefit. The things you would offer would also depend on the deity/deities or spirits you are offering to too.
I'm unfamiliar with this festival. Typically sacrificing a bovine one should circle Sunwise (clockwise) seven times with the animal. The symbology is about the Seven Pleiades within the Taurus Constellation where the comet, did, and its fragments seem to come from at night that blocked the Sun plunging us into darkness for an extended amount of time. The counter-clockwise three times could be to initiate the site as to invite the dead, being it involves a duality alike Ishtar being verdure and war.
@Kleine Vuurvlinder It is obvious that you have read a lot. For one thing the story was not dispersed from a common source it was a reoccurring worldwide spectacle of the Taurid Stream intersecting with our world. You may like the book The Comets of God.
@Kleine Vuurvlinder Allah is actually Balac the Great Leader with Balaam The Mage close to Galatia, English name God is derived from Goths after they got the hands on Roman Empire which was politheist untill they Goths masterminded Christianizing up a long time. The Goths lost the True Name after its Nature of Creator. He is Only One Eternal Living Light like the initial divination of Druids/Mages, to Egypt Ra = Ray Sun God EL=Light, meaning the Sun God of which Is Light Ray.
This is likely true about the sacrifice. Celts had Feasts, The cow or ox , or what ever was sacrificed was all done in ceremonies before the Feast.. I think the structure of the events was similar.
I had an animist wedding when I married an indigenous person from a remote village. Including a goat sacrifice and my father in law dripping the blood tomorrow first married bedchamber. Sacrifices were not these crazy barbarisms Christians like to say but more a faith based required slaughter of an animal because people would not normally get the meat unless required. It's a sacrifice because life is lost. It's a blessing because life is continued through that loss. It's an honor and a responsibility. In the Christian culture, a stranger butchers abuses animals and no one shows gratitude, responsibility, or respect. Sadly, our sons never learned his faith or language because their Dad's culture is for only the oldest male who lives on their ancestral home to conduct all ceremonies. It was inappropriate (and I think he was not into his faith as I would have wished) so he never did anything. Always made me sad.
For a project I’m working on, one of the tribes top 4 deities is Tyr, Sigyn, Wodan, and Skadi. I was wondering whether or not that would be reasonable (even though not historically accurate)
What your talking about makes a kegger sound like a small party. I was reading about Stone Hinge, and of course it was built so long ago no one really knows. So this had to be just someone's theory. Anyway the claim was made that Feasting was used to build Stone Hinge. At a time when feeding yourself could be problematic it sounds likely.
It's well over due, and has its place, if the status Q, don't like or make it difficult then it's time to exercise the old rights thing and we do have the right !
I have a small sacred space in my backyard I've been working on for a couple years. I just finished my modest hörgr Wednesday and was able to use it Friday for the full moon. It was pretty great. I've set it up with a fire pit in the front. Strategically placed stones for my mead horn, blot bowl, candles,and the top shelf for God statues. I used deer blood for this initial ritual. I don't have any God statues yet. Do you have a recommendation for where to get those? I'd prefer wood.
Can I go as a foreigner who knows nothing about it? When I go to Europe I'd like to see these things, I'm already going to buy some 17th century high crown hats for myself. AND I WILL WEAR THEM ON THE AIRPLANE.
This goal of yours sounds like a wonderful dream of a community. Have you heard of the American hunting tradition to drink the blood or take a bite of the heart or your first hunting kill? I know some people joke about it, but some really do it, I did neither with my first harvest, but it is a thing.
Thank you for your excellent content. One question. how is it that the war hammer is not part of the standard Viking arsenal? Although Thor is using it.
Keep your dreams and passions alive! The Abrahamics want to suppress knowledge and wisdom. In the first few pages of their control manual they state that knowledge is the original sin. The Alfather gave his eye and life for knowledge and wisdom. The old ways tell us to seek it throughout our lives. The Abrahamics want a herd. The Aesir want a pack! Find your mountaintop covered in snow! Find your Grove ringed with stones! The pack will converge. The wolves are waiting.
It does sound like paradise. It would truly take a group of us coming together as a community to do this. I hope this will trigger a conversation in the group.
Thank you for the shout out I appreciate it very much. I always learn something new from your videos, what you said near the end about employers not wanting you to have time off so true and keeping us divided.
Bro, Im an atheist, but I like Scandinavian/European paganism much more than Abrahamic religions. I hope European paganism will rise again.
I usually just move my celebrations to the closest weekend, with a ritual on the say of whichever celebration it is, to mark the correct day.
Yes, that's what our group did also.
I wish I had found your channel sooner; better late than never. I appreciate your dedication and generosity to share with all of us.

What a beautiful dream. My friends and I have been talking about the same thing for years!
Once i move back home ill be making it one of my missions to make craft mead and would love to donate to the blot.

Sounds like a fun time. I think I'd be sticking around the grove after the sacrifice with some psychoactives and meditation.
I would love to hear more about the blot you participated in Norway!!

I'm in old and broke down but if my sprit and prayers can help hell YA I'm all in
Unfortunately I've no family ties anymore but I'm trying to figure out how to work around that hindrance!
this would be a dream come true

The hardest part is getting everyone organized

Enjoyable and enlightening video. Do you plan to start your village in Norway or the US?
He's mentioned before that he's aiming for the midwestern US. Someplace out in the country where land is cheap and soil is good for growing food.
Probably the US by the looks of it

Mars pater, te precor quaesoque uti sies volens propitius mihi domo familiaeque nostrae, quoius re ergo agrum terram fundumque meum suovitaurilia circumagi iussi, uti tu morbos visos invisosque, viduertatem vastitudinemque, calamitates intemperiasque prohibessis defendas averruncesque; utique tu fruges, frumenta, vineta virgultaque grandire beneque evenire siris, pastores pecuaque salva servassis duisque bonam salutem valetudinemque mihi domo familiaeque nostrae; harumce rerum ergo, fundi terrae agrique mei lustrandi lustrique faciendi ergo, sicuti dixi, macte hisce suovitaurilibus lactentibus inmolandis esto; Mars pater, eiusdem rei ergo macte hisce suovitaurilibus lactentibus esto.
Father Mars, I pray and beseech thee that thou be gracious and merciful to me, my house, and my household; to which intent I have bidden this suovetaurilia to be led around my land, my ground, my farm; that thou keep away, ward off, and remove sickness, seen and unseen, barrenness and destruction, ruin and unseasonable influence; and that thou permit my harvests, my grain, my vineyards, and my plantations to flourish and to come to good issue, preserve in health my shepherds and my flocks, and give good health and strength to me, my house, and my household. To this intent, to the intent of purifying my farm, my land, my ground, and of making an expiation, as I have said, deign to accept the offering of these suckling victims; Father Mars, to the same intent deign to accept the offering of these suckling offering.
- Cato's prayer (Suovetaurilia, from De re rustica, 2.1.10
Hopefully one day when I'm old enough and independent enough I can join this stuff all the stuff you described sounded quite fun hopefully you're alive by the time this is possible
Keep up the good work & one day you'll get everything you want
You should also think about fashion then. Get something that carry the soul from the past, but will not feel too out of place either in contemporary time either.
Great to have dreams! That’s here when people may say that one is crazy and shake their heads.. but really, we live fucking once in our lifetime and the world is in reality one big sandbox, so absolutely go for it, if that’s something you truly yearn for!
When can we get your norse jewelry ie. necklace, rings in the USA. Also what was your favorite viking name again?? I watched the video but can’t remember what episode it was. Thank you very much. I enjoy your channel and look forward too it✌️
You'll get there sooner than you think. I'm getting involved with real estate now and I have some other financial stuff going on, once it gets going it's pretty fast. When are you restocking the jewelry, I want a mjolnir? I already ordered the earrings!!
Bronze in this week. The silver next month :)
I'm actually hoping to get a ministry started someday. Goal is a village where we farm and raise crops and animals for running a soup kitchen and a free rehab clinic. I live in ranch country so hopefully I can make this happen since I'm not too far from Los Angeles and it needs the help
vitamin therapy will help a lot. alcohol, sugar, and carbs deplete B vitamins and drug addicts lack NAC. and everyone needs more vitamin C (liposomal is the best oral vitamin C)
What about the human sacrifices? I have read about these from various sources? I am decended from the Norse Vikings and very proud of that!
I have a small homestead and working on building something similar for our yearly celebrations. Hoping to pick up the couple of acres next to us because it's got a beautiful young oak Grove in one corner❤️ I'll be building a roundhouse after the fashion of my native roots and it'll be for family. I'd love to invite friends but they're all christians. Maybe one day I'll have pagan friends lol.
What modern music makes your norse soul excited? If there was a village I would gladly move there and live
Your idea intrigued me . I am not sure where you are planning for your dream happen . Norway? LA? I was wondering if you ever considered another state to build your village. Since Minnesota has a strong Norwegian heritage. They even believe they discovered a Ruin Stone near Duluth. I would have to believe they performed these religious rituals here on American soil as well . The land in both Minnesota or even the U.P of Michigan would be incredibly economical to do this . Versus California. I also believe this could draw a lot of outside attention to your dream . Good Luck . Best wishes .
It will probably be the US or Canada. Definitely the northern states
Years ago I fought MMA, I knocked out my opponent in 36 seconds, and I wish I could have worn a shirt promoting glima. Do you think that the Gods favor the sacrifices made by those who work hard as they train, workout and grind out the attributes necessary for fighting? There really is a different energy about those who are dedicated martial artists, and I just wonder how the demands of it affect our standing with the gods.
I think the gods(especially Odin) likes fighters for alot of reasons :)
@@norsemagicandbeliefs8134 I think so too. There are just so many personal attributes that can only be realized through warrior training. Not just the athletic ones either. Eventually the training crosses over into moral, psychological, and spiritual development.
I wish I could be in your community/tribe. I'd love to help reinvigorate and further the old ways in community based on them. Little to no technology, old traditions, good people around and good food. It would be a dream come true.
As long as we could go plunder n loot others.....👍🏻🤣👍🏻
Don't forget good ale and good mead daily too!
@@HroduuulfSonOfHrodger I could bring something to the community, I make mead as often as I can, but honey is expensive, especially when the batches come out to 6 gallon each.
@@kennethmoore625 That's why you have to have honeybee hives within the community. We have 1 and are adding 1 each year. We just finally found our homestead recently here in Amish country PA. We started with chickens, ducks, and geese, then honeybees, and now turkeys. We'll eventually add sheep, goats, pigs, cows, and horses. We are butchering a lamb this week from a neighboring farm to learn the process. We also bought a quarter cow and next year will up it to half a cow until we can start raising our own for milk and meat. But yeah, I have a book and vids on making mead and ale, but haven't had the money to purchase all of the special little items I know you need. We have the honey but not the stuff. You have the stuff, but not the honey. Too bad we couldn't barter if you lived closer. You can also teach others how to make mead themselves. This is all about self-sufficiency ultimately for whenever civilization decides to collapse. It feels as if that is right around the corner now. Haha!
Suggestion your may queen selection happening before sacrifice and she is your singer as you circle. To me I think Odin would be honored by her representative singing for him
What sacrifices can a Vegetarian / Vegan do, can you do a special video for this please
Good idea! I could do tht
@@norsemagicandbeliefs8134 Thanks, got to look at new ways of doing things. I was also thinking with how food that is left as a sacrifice is left in the woods, I was thinking could we donate food to a homeless shelter or a local community pantry as a way of doing sacrifice for us that live in the city, pray over it before we donate it
@@SandraInSpace It’s intended for nature, so it wouldn’t go to waste. But if you live in a city… well, I doubt you’ll find any sacred space there for the ritual offering anyway? I would take day a trip outside the city for this, find a spot that is special and accessible to wildlife, undisturbed and preferably a grove/spring/waterfall as examples, and would never do this inside a city or your home. It doesn’t have to be much food (to offer) so I wouldn’t worry about that myself, enough for surrounding animals to benefit. The things you would offer would also depend on the deity/deities or spirits you are offering to too.
I'm unfamiliar with this festival. Typically sacrificing a bovine one should circle Sunwise (clockwise) seven times with the animal. The symbology is about the Seven Pleiades within the Taurus Constellation where the comet, did, and its fragments seem to come from at night that blocked the Sun plunging us into darkness for an extended amount of time. The counter-clockwise three times could be to initiate the site as to invite the dead, being it involves a duality alike Ishtar being verdure and war.
@Kleine Vuurvlinder It is obvious that you have read a lot. For one thing the story was not dispersed from a common source it was a reoccurring worldwide spectacle of the Taurid Stream intersecting with our world. You may like the book The Comets of God.
I heard something like that to
@Kleine Vuurvlinder Allah is actually Balac the Great Leader with Balaam The Mage close to Galatia, English name God is derived from Goths after they got the hands on Roman Empire which was politheist untill they Goths masterminded Christianizing up a long time. The Goths lost the True Name after its Nature of Creator. He is Only One Eternal Living Light like the initial divination of Druids/Mages, to Egypt Ra = Ray Sun God EL=Light, meaning the Sun God of which Is Light Ray.
This is likely true about the sacrifice. Celts had Feasts, The cow or ox , or what ever was sacrificed was all done in ceremonies
before the Feast..
I think the structure of the events was similar.
I had an animist wedding when I married an indigenous person from a remote village. Including a goat sacrifice and my father in law dripping the blood tomorrow first married bedchamber. Sacrifices were not these crazy barbarisms Christians like to say but more a faith based required slaughter of an animal because people would not normally get the meat unless required. It's a sacrifice because life is lost. It's a blessing because life is continued through that loss. It's an honor and a responsibility. In the Christian culture, a stranger butchers abuses animals and no one shows gratitude, responsibility, or respect. Sadly, our sons never learned his faith or language because their Dad's culture is for only the oldest male who lives on their ancestral home to conduct all ceremonies. It was inappropriate (and I think he was not into his faith as I would have wished) so he never did anything. Always made me sad.
For a project I’m working on, one of the tribes top 4 deities is Tyr, Sigyn, Wodan, and Skadi. I was wondering whether or not that would be reasonable (even though not historically accurate)
Paradise
Your a badass. Keep going.
I got two things,jack and sh!t. These rituals are very hard to pull off today for a crap ton of reasons
this DOES sound like paradise!
What your talking about makes a kegger sound like a small party.
I was reading about Stone Hinge, and of course it was built so long ago no one really knows. So this had to be just someone's
theory. Anyway the claim was made that Feasting was used to build Stone Hinge.
At a time when feeding yourself could be problematic it sounds likely.
It's well over due, and has its place, if the status Q, don't like or make it difficult then it's time to exercise the old rights thing and we do have the right !
There's a video on UA-cam titled Viking Bloot 2014 you might be interested in, love your videos mate 👍
Yes I added him
I have a small sacred space in my backyard I've been working on for a couple years. I just finished my modest hörgr Wednesday and was able to use it Friday for the full moon. It was pretty great. I've set it up with a fire pit in the front. Strategically placed stones for my mead horn, blot bowl, candles,and the top shelf for God statues. I used deer blood for this initial ritual. I don't have any God statues yet. Do you have a recommendation for where to get those? I'd prefer wood.
Cut and carve them yourself. Not only does it mean more, but you'll learn some valuable lessons while you do it.
@@gcanaday1 I considered doing that. I have the tools and the skill. I just have to make the time.
You might find them on etsy. If not ill be carrying them in my shop in the next couple months
I have the acreage, goats and pigs, access to a large oak grove, and the time. Don't know anyone personally who shares my religion.
Where will you build your farmstead and how can we support it?
Sorry if you've addressed this before
Hey when will you be restocking your store?
Once you've got a plan for the village, let us know so I can help
Can I go as a foreigner who knows nothing about it? When I go to Europe I'd like to see these things, I'm already going to buy some 17th century high crown hats for myself. AND I WILL WEAR THEM ON THE AIRPLANE.
I would join in an instant
This goal of yours sounds like a wonderful dream of a community.
Have you heard of the American hunting tradition to drink the blood or take a bite of the heart or your first hunting kill? I know some people joke about it, but some really do it, I did neither with my first harvest, but it is a thing.
I would love to participate in this, is it only for pagans, or would a Scandinavian mystic like myself be welcome as well?
You might be more pagan than you think!
Thank you for your excellent content. One question. how is it that the war hammer is not part of the standard Viking arsenal? Although Thor is using it.
FWIW: A Sacrifice is something set aside for sacred purpose.
Have you got a calendar for those of us in the Southern hemisphere
There should be! I did a quick video on it though that you can search on the channel
5:52 do you have any sources about what they could have been?
There are a few. See my video about temples/sacred places and "Where to Blot" and I go over some of them
Keep your dreams and passions alive!
The Abrahamics want to suppress knowledge and wisdom.
In the first few pages of their control manual they state that knowledge is the original sin.
The Alfather gave his eye and life for knowledge and wisdom.
The old ways tell us to seek it throughout our lives.
The Abrahamics want a herd.
The Aesir want a pack!
Find your mountaintop covered in snow!
Find your Grove ringed with stones!
The pack will converge.
The wolves are waiting.
Perfectly stated.
