Modern Norse paganism is a revival of ancient Norse religious practices and beliefs, sometimes in modified form, that has occurred in some European countries and countries with populations of European descent such as the United States and Canada. It is commonly referred to as Asatru. Although most adherents of Asatru are not racist or white supremacist, some white supremacists have adopted modern Norse pagan beliefs and symbols. Some of these symbols include the Tyr, Algiz, Jera, Sowilu/SS, Madr and Odal/Othala runes. Also the Sun wheel/cross, Black sun, Wolfsangel, Thors Hammer/Mjolnir and Swastika have been used by certain groups in the last 100 years. This video goes over these symbols and their original meaning and history.
Until people--and especially large organizations--stop apologizing, things will only get worse. Take your culture back.
What large organizations?
@@aliciamarie9704 Well, the Norwegian Olympic team for one.
Yes take it back from the leftists
@@CthonicSoulChicken Do you know where the backlash was coming from? It does seem unreasonable, especially when these runes are obviously Nordic in origin. I don’t blame those who get bent out of shape over Swastika’s though. Since I was born the Swastika was a symbol of evil. I can’t even look at it w/o feeling ill. The other less recognizable ones shouldn’t be a problem. My opinion.
@Faroe I am sorry for this. There must be a way to remove it from the negative story. Personally, I do what feels good & right to me in the privacy of my own home. If I shared my beliefs with my family, I’d prob be disowned. They are all very religious. My family is Protestant and my husbands family is Mormon.
I just wish to be part of a group that loves Mother Nature above all. Who listens to Mother Nature above all. Why do the people in this comment section seem so hostile? Lol. I guess I’m more of a hippy and just want to make everyone happy & comfortable. I will always defend Black Americans. They have deep ties and culture here in USA. Even if they fo not like me, I will never become a hateful spiteful racist SOB.
I'm half Japanese, and I find it funny that many white people I met is so anti European culture because they think European culture is racist due to colonialism and etc, yet at the same time, these same White people LOVES Asian culture so much. They loved Chinese, Japanese and etc. Comes up to me, and glorify how beautiful Japanese cultures are, and that they claim white people don't have culture, and even if they do, its racist.
And I'm like... such pathetic hypocrite aren't they. Did they forgot what Japanese did in WW1 and 2? Did they forgot what kind of leadership China have throughout history?
Why is it only the white that gets the hate if every race of every culture had done terrible things in the past and why is it now Asian culture become a thing? Suddenly everyone is into Japanese, Chinese and Korean culture. I remember back in the days people hate anime and the people who watches it, but now, everyone is watching anime. Not to mention Korean as well. Back then nobody knows Korea, but now everybody knows Kpop and even glorify Korean movie. Years ago, I remember people would literally insult that you're gay and lesbian in such derogatory term because you watched Kpop, but now, everyone fucking comes out as part of LGBTQ.
WTF happened.
No idea how all this happen literally happened over night, knew people that where complete assholes and bullies in High School or my countries equivalent to high school and nowadays they care so much about racism and alpabet people and the enviroment and bla bla, but my bet is some form of social engineering being possiable because of the explosion in social media, it all come out being faker than than K-pop stars nose
They are brainwashed. Our Culture and Societies are intentionally being destroyed.
To destroy a people, first you destroy their Culture.
It's what Mao did during the Color revolution. He destroyed all the ancient Chinese architecture, artifacts, and literature
It's deep, and it starts with the tiny hats. Once you understand that, the rest of the picture comes into focus. If you don't see this, then everything is a confusing blur. There is a reason that every culture who interacted with the tiny hats tried to rid them from this planet. I don't hate anyone, but I will speak the truth when I see it.
You control the media you control the minds of the masses…. And what group controls the media???
I am a White Latino, and I came out as LGBTQ!… As in Let’s Get Biden To Quit!…
It's amazing how the world has basically outlawed ANYTHING pro European. Any race has the right to be proud of their heritage, in fact it's shoved down our throats about how lovely all races are...except Europeans. The fact we can't adorn any ancient proto indo European, especially Germanic, symbols without being shamed. I refuse to apologize for repping the sonnenrad I have tattooed and the various other archaic designs tattooed by Germanic tribes as well as the Vikings like the swas-tika is one of our peoples most IMPORTANT symbol used from the Celts, Gauls, Scythians, Germans, and Scandinavians. And funny part about me being attacked for having appreciation for my Germanic roots, I'm also proud of my moms heritage of being full Apache while my dad is German, Norwegian, with some Swedish and Danish blood.
Great video brother I respect how mature you are about your point of view it's refreshing to hear someone finally not piss on those who love their race cuz it's not born from hate it's a human right but apparently us whites can't have anything anymore.
We’re just not worthy.
There is only one human race. The Neanderthals were the last of the others.
How can you say the world has banned pro europeanism when its only America and europe who like to pretend theyre somehow universal and that the world is appliccable to everything that they are no one banned pro europeanism other than the westerners themselves.
It started in america not long after WW2... Can you imagine if it was Israel that Russia attacked rather then Ukraine... CNN and Fox would have us all over there fighting.
The swastika is also found in Buddhist art. This symbol is shared by many races and cultures.
Even the Third Reich didn't use this symbol to represent hatred or evil.
When they adopted this ancient symbol of their own Folk they chose it to represent just that. That and a nation onto their own.
That being said, I wear a swastika all the time. It's on my silver mjolnir, stylized with the rounded rays. The funny thing is that the folks who (occasionally) give me dirty looks about it are other people of European ancestry. The Asian people I talk to are the ones who look at it and smile.
You are spot on there, only if people were willing to learn history. As an Scandinavian I actually appreciate how the NASDP looked back at history and embraced their Pagan heritage. With the Victorian State Government here in Australia outlawing the use of the Swastika just shits on my family heritage.
@@R3B3LC4PTA1N * "Sorry", but it did come to represent hatred and violence and death to those people who have lost their ancestors in WW2. That was thanks to the actions against minorities in the Third Reich.
Your family had other symbols and most of Europe has not been pagan (excluding the neo-pagans) for over a thousand years. 🙄 8-9 million people were murdered in association with the swastika symbol.
The other pRt of the story is that China and Japan were on the side of the Axis powers in WW2. They were not taught about the many who were killed (6 million of them were Judah) and the others were Polish, Gypsy, black, disabled or resistance. 🤔
I had the same experience. My wedding ring has Odal and 11 swastikas on it. When I was at a Hare Krsna temple someone noticed and said ''nice ring'', while westerners usually think I'm racist.
@@R3B3LC4PTA1N okay Hitler
I'm half Slavic..The Double lightning bolt is a symbol that's associated with one of our Deities ,Perun
Also, self defense, the right to protect yourself no matter what you are part is perfectly stated. Every living thing has that right to defend its life, and home. It's a natural reaction to being attacked, therefore a natural right.
Happiness being our birthright
stand up for ya rights righteous Mitakuye Oyasin.
@@zeropointconsciousness no where in any government constitution or articles have they ever said happiness is your birth right the pursuit of happiness is a birthright you still have to earn it
@@Scarface_saiyan It don't have to be if the right to pursuit it is already a birth right!! The state of mind happiness is a direct result of the activity of right to pursuit it, and therefor becomes automatically part of that birth right to pursuit it. it would not make much sense to have a right to pursuit something if you don't also have the right to own it or succeed in it too. The birthright of the pursuit of happiness is a right on an activity which automatically gives you the same right in the result of the activity so to succeed in it. A fishing licence is also not a licence to have caught fish but a licence to do the activity of catching them and therefor automatically a right to succeed in it.
@@Scarface_saiyan why the fuck should anyone care whether or not it’s written within any constitutions?
@@Scarface_saiyan The UK, for instance, doesn't have a constitution. It's the Americans who love their constitution so much that they can't see that it's written in another time and needs to be rewritten completely.
is always important to know the true history of things
and to be aware of their original Ancient intent and meaning
:))))) Is it important for you to know the true answer of your question than?..
The Swatika/hakenkreuz/Fire wheel is found everywhere from Asia to Africa to Europe and the Americas. The Fire wheel was a holy symbol amongst many Native American Nations, and was even used on road signs in New Mexico until WWII. There was a swastika found from the Hopewell Civilization (Mound Builders) made from green slate and fashioned to resemble intersecting snakes.
Thank you, was just about to comment this - and several of these people cannot be classified as Indo-European … nonetheless, it seems to have been more popular in use among IE & people in close contact with them -
Fun fact!
European especially north get very discomfortable when visit India 🤣
*due to the reverse sun symbol
If you look at the ancient symbols from the Aztecs you will find yet another version of the swastika carved in stone and worked into the metals
In baltic pagan religion svastica literally means Sun and rebirth
I wasn't a racerist until I was proud to be I-haplogroup, proud to be an Odinist, unashamed of my skin color, immune to anti-European and Afrocentric propaganda, and shrugged when I was told my ancestors were all evil for merely existing.
I had absolutely no intention or desire to wear the uniform. They put it on for me.
Very well stated and true. We're sick of the Marxist wave sweeping the world.

I understand that maybe in your country this way of speaking isn’t problematic. In America, you’d be called a right wing nut. They’d say your a Trump loving Nazi. I’m not saying it’s true, but I’d never want to be put into any box, so I keep my mouth shut about stuff like this. Most countries don’t have the same type of history as us, so I’m not sure why whites from other countries talk so passionately about it.
The SS used the Sun rune bc Guido von List, in his book "the secret of the runes", changed the meaning of it to victory ("sieg" in german), von List created his own set of runes he called 'Armanen Futhark' and the nazis followed this futhark instead of the historical ones
Sieg auf Deutsch sig auf Svensk, Norsk und auch auf Kartoffeln im Mund.
Nazis liked Guido von List. Actually the ~1935 edition of the Brockhaus encyclopaedia shows (only) Armanen Futhark under the "Runen" entry.
Swastika the indoeuropean symbol if you wanna know the meaning a detailed explenation can be found in the indo-iranic(indo-arii) cultures in the Rig-veda (indic) and in the Avesta(iranic) i Remember knowing this since cildhood beacause of my background some reference can also be found in the saka scythyan culture other finding(Greece,Roma, Celtic gaelic,nordic-germanic, Armenia,) swast means good healt or whealt
Well done Mr. Singh and thank you. Not much time to study ancient India and Vedic (?) type terminology.
@@kenanacampora welcome sir i can image and understand the problem with time but knowing that we have sources and evidence it's already a good start the suggestion i can give it's to study firts the ones close to you culturally that slowly approach the others and Always ask to the autocnous people they some times give you a Better inside on the events and meaning stay curious and have great day sir
Fun additional fact: swastika in Iranian artifacts and mythology is the symbol of sun, sky, or the four elements. Its name in persian is gardun-e-mehr, literally meaning the wheel of sun.
@@monarchistheadcrab8819 yes that's true
seeing the tyr rune takes me back to my time in the royal navy in the 70s , every piece of kit we were issued had that rune on it somewhere, as it was found on many old weapons dug up from
graves of over 1.000 years back.
A bee 🐝 has the right to sting to defend it’s hive. I really like how you explain things. No fuss, just practical. Have a great visit & safe travels 😊
The sowilo rune was interpreted as being associated with victory, so using ᛋᛋ as their emblem was meant to signify ultimate victory.
Also, the hooked cross was a solar symbol. That regime seemed to be fond of using solar symbols.
There's nothing wrong with Germans using their own culture for what they want. The only people telling people what they can and cannot do or say with our own culture are Hebrews and those who listen to their instructions.
It always puzzled me about them using Sowilo but this actually makes sense now. Thank you.
I thank you for giving more clarity about these symbols. I have often said that none of these symbols are racist. Amazing video. Keep up the great work.
You are spot on about being called a racist… thank you for doing this video!!! Hope your vacay is amazing :)

Thank you for your content and especially for the way you present it. As an American it is sometimes difficult to find proper teachings about any world history or cultures and I find going to the source is always best. Thank you
Everyone and his mother in law gets called racist these days, it is a badge of honor and weeds out the rifraf in your social circle. Cant be assed anymore...
Only white ppl are called it in order to be demoralized and disarmed
No, racism is always terrible!

Slavic peoples used the Kolovrat and other symbols which do appear swaz. Amazing history of old Norseman
I remeber decades ago before the TV show induced viking craze, I was in a bushcraft group on fb and some lad posted a picture of him shirtless camping with the caption "become the bushcraft" he had a whole bunch of runes painted in mud on him and it was interesting too see the backlash wasn't about him using racist symbols it was from people claiming he does not have the right to display them symbols he was not viking enough, his name looked Scandinavian but hey people were pissed he was not viking enough others told him he was messing with forces he doesn't understand the poor lad was just sharing a picture I bet he didn't expect any of the backlash it went on too long. I think he took the photo down
Robert sepehr does a good video on the origin. The sign is used for nobility. The earliest known swastika is from 10,000 BCE - part of "an intricate meander pattern of joined-up swastikas" found on a late paleolithic figurine of a bird, carved from mammoth ivory, found in Mezine, Ukraine. It has been suggested that this swastika may be a stylised picture of a stork in flight.
Based Sepher evangelist
The double lightning bolt is native american too meaning victory.
I think these ancient symbols used all around mother earth by different cultures are either in the collective consciousness (which they obviously are) or else we were all connected long before recorded history.
To be honest I believe both these explanations are true.
My partner's initials are SS, and he's a straight-razored bald man with a long beard who draws those damn lightning bolt SS everywhere. He's nowhere near a Nazi or sympathizer, etc., far from it; but try telling that to run-of-the-mill Americans in rural Mississippi. 😂🤣🤦🏼♀️ The association is just assumed when people see the symbol. It's aggravating.
Ancient Aryan symbols
Love your videos, so glad to see the growth
Thank you for the great video. Your a good teacher. There was a group of some protesters that made American Indian Tribes (Western Plains, I think) stop using their traditional Swastikas. The Sun Wheel was representative of the four directions along with the colors and the four stages of life.
Love ur channel. I have learned so much. I really appreciate what u do. It's so refreshing to see some real content
i used to be woke, when they said you can't watch 'this or that' so i watched it and learnt so much on varied subjects that completely destroy their false narrative, they do more harm than good despite meaning well.
Critical thinking, is surely the best way, in a way to help and change the opinions instead of blaming and creating hate, which solves nothing.
@@stahlstahlstahl2325 if they teach the real or actual meaning behind the symbols and putting the " feelings"aside. Not doing selective opinions and teach that these are " bad", so to speak.
Just wanted to say this: learning and asking questions is ALWAYS the correct route. Questions don't damage truth, they expose it. But false narratives fall apart. Read, learn, ask questions and dismiss those who discourage it.
@@jimbusmaximus4624 to an extent. If you ask a college professor, whos,"woke", then ask that same question, to an old construction worker, you're mostly going to get two different sides to the coin. More so ,do the research your self. Then you make your opinion on the subject matter. The professors opinion is most likely going to be sugar coated and hand it to you on a silver platter, because lives in false, made up narratives, because he can,and will push influences. Also lives in the 4 corners of the university. The construction worker is going to give it to you straight from the hip. The chances are it's not going to be sugar coated and will be brutally honest,from life experiences.
"THEY" DON'T MEAN WELL AT ALL!!!
BOOM! Your own comment of being politically in the middle is exactly why I suggested going on Timcast. You'd fit very well, because the host of the podcast is also in the middle by his own words. The entire cast leans more Christian, but that is also why you'd make a great guest. To give a different spirital point of view, and help correct any misconceptions they have about pagans. It may help boost your channel's numbers, and also give viewers of the podcast a different perspective on subjects. Sure, the cultish liberals would not like it, but we don't want cult like behavior in our circles. Those cult people are the reason why certain symbols are seen as racist today.
Yeah I also would love to see him on Timcast podcast.
Just got recommended this video, and gotta say, the "denouncement"/announcement was genuinely well-worded. Props for that.
Love your videos, informative, so well explained, love your attitude...top man😊
You've presented yourself well mate. It's greatly appreciated to hear the unabashed truth about the symbols of our ancestors, no matter how many hurt feelings it causes. The truth is more important in regards to our people's culture, symbols and traditions
My German grandmother told me that the swastika was the symbol of Donar, the Germanic predecessor to Thor,
About the black sun, while you are mostly correct, the Alemanni tribe had a very similar symbol.
Yeah his explanation is same as wikipedia. I did some research into that symbol and several sources linked it to something older actually much older. While I love his videos I have to say always verify anyone's statements on this history, as there is lots of information that is just not correct and some of it propaganda. I always prefer to try and read original sources, as today they will twist anything to fit "the narative"
Great video as always, its always good to shed light on the runes to those who may be unaware of their origins and that they are not meant to be hate symbols but cultural and spiritual symbols.
Apparently a Finnish airforce that predated Nazis had swastikas on their planes. When I was little and was obsessed with Finland, I wasn't aware of the nazis and had the finnish airforce with a swastika as my computer background. I got in trouble and they didn't explain why so I was clueless until we learned about WWII =(
Finland's Air Force logo (which has been changed recently, although the Air Force Academy still has it) was adopted in 1918, since the man who gave Finland it's first military planes used the symbol as a family good luck charm. Some try to say this still makes the Finnish logo related to the Nazis, since the man, Eric Von Rosen, was involved in some racial "science" before 1918 (which wasn't uncommon at the time and even in the 19th century, Finns were classified as "Asian" according to these studies into race) and because of his connections and involvement to the Nazis after 1918. That reasoning however, is total nonsense in trying to connect the Finnish swastika to the Nazis. Not to mention that swastika-like symbols such as hannunvaakuna or tursaansydän have been used in Finland for way longer with preserved use of the symbol dating back 1000 years and likely more.
The word Swastika is from the Sanskrit language Swastika meaning good fortune. Thai language are using it as a greeting frace. Sawatdee Kaa for femails & Sawatdee Kap for mails.
Thank you for your informative videos. You have a positive posture, and understand how to present this information in a neutral fashion. Kudos to you Man! Keep up the good work.
Hey man I'm Metis from Canada, I love your channel. I find Viking culture fascinating, thank you the education
I have a leatherwork instructional book printed in the late 1920's, swastikas are everywhere referencing native American uses.
Thank you I learned so much. It's ashamed that people out of ignorance jump to conclusions about what's right or wrong.
Great video. I really appreciate the explanations, especially as US born and not completely familiarized.
I don’t know if you go on podcasts or would ever be interested in doing so, but you would be such a great guest for “I’m Doing Great”! They would be so lucky to have you on, if you ever chose to do something like that!
Fun fact that you didn't know and most likely don't care about: the word "tyr" literally means "arrow" in persian, and is also the name of one the angels/gods in Iranian mythology, as well as being the name of the first month of summer.
And swastika can also be found in Iranian artifacts and mythology, being the symbol of sun, sky, or the four elements. Its name in persian is gardun-e-mehr, literally meaning the wheel of sun(ironic because the sun wheel symbol can also be found in our culture but we gave its name to swastika somehow).
This shows how the aryans were culturally connected, that words and symbols have the same usage and meaning from Asia to Europe.
If I may, sun wheel....
Oldest symbol in history. When symbols were written language. It started out meaning earth to the Sumarians. Later, it was more of a solar symbol, dividing the seasons and solstice and equinox. A multi purpose tool symbol for an agricultural people. (By the way, the Teutonic cross, or the "iron cross" is a variation of the solar sign of solstice and equinox.)
I don't know how or why the 12 "sig" design was labeled the black sun. Only that it was associated with the Nazi's. The "black sun" in early ancient astronomy is what pagans call the sun when it sets below the equator. The Annunaki created the zodiacal calander. Dividing the earth by the equator, and the north and south 30th parallels. The sun set below the 30th parallel, that's the black sun. By the way, there are 12 sig runs making up the black sun. These represent the 12 houses of the zodiac.
The Younger Futhark Hagal rune is a six pointed star like a snowflake and originally I believe one of its meanings is the blanket of snow which nurtures the seeds below to bring new life in the thaw. This is found on all ambulances in the UK and I think the USA too, usually with a caduceus superimposed on it.
Good video thank you for explaining it to people who do not know. I didn't know the origins of a couple of them. Thanks 👍🏻
You're wrong about the black sun actually, its at least as old as the germanic iron age. Look up Zierscheibe. Its a type of circular design that has been around for some time.
Thought l could add a couple things.
The "elk" rune has been refered to as a sybol of life and fertility and death if inverted. What would make a lot of sense having it on the honor badge you've shown in the video which was one given to mothers for "producing" more aryan offspring as it were.
The wolfsangel ironically represents individuality and personal freedom, the free spirit of a true warrior to speak, what is even more ironic since it was the symbol of the 2nd "das reich" division, some of the worst war crminals even the rest of the ss dispised but hey they went out of their way to do it so l guess it's fitting.
And finally the sun wheel was sometimes refered to represent the center of the germanic world and is a product of what some call "esotheric nazism" l think himler's main inspiration was the knights of the round table which was his sorta dnd party who had regular gatherings in that dungeon doing weird rituals an shit, that's why the number twelve it is believed to have a lot of magic potency or something in many cultures. The whole castle in fact was carefully planned to perform these rituals to amongst other things, conduct esotheric warfare on the enemy in germany's last months. It just gets weirder the more you read but the first explaination seems legit.
Great video bro pretty informative Thanks for the content
Hello, big fan here, i would very much like to hear your thoughts on tattoos, especially on nordic sigils and runes in video format, thank you!
You forgot the valknut! The triskelion-like triple triangle knot symbol. It's called 'val' meaning slain (like in Valholl, Valfadher), and it typically appeared in contexts of Odin. For some reason, likely modern white nationalists using it, this symbol has picked up racist connotations in modern heathen circles. I don't like surrendering these symbols to racist groups, and I won't allow them to claim it.
"to racist groups"... Stop using their language and concept as it is a term invented by a small hat.
I am one of these nationalistic types and I can tell you that nobody is using it because they see it as a "racist symbol". As people who pride ourselves on who we are, we use the ancestral symbology of our people. Pure and simple. That is what it represents to us, our folk and religiosity. Nobody is trying to make it stand for a political organization or a symbol that means that we don't want outlanders living amongst us or anything of that nature.
With how many fingers the Nazi's had in different pies, it’s pretty clear to me that they believed in these symbols, I do love how balanced you are mate, thanks for another interesting video.
The wolfsangel does show up in a book I have. The book relates it to the god Vidar the Silent. This could be a more recent connection but it does make sense. A symbol of a wolf trap used to represent the slayer of the chaos wolf.
"The Rites of Odin" Ed Fitch 1990
Great information. WIll the books be linked by any chance?
So happy to of found this channel! I'm of Norse descent and have been an Odinst for 40 of my 53 years. I've been using runes for years just to mark my tools and other items. Nice that no one else can read them but everyone knows that they are mine. My son and I also speak old Norse when we are out. It's nice to use as no one knows what we are saying so we can say whatever shit we want and when inevitably some person asks us what we are saying\from, we both just stare really sternly at them (I'm 6.2, my son is 6.4 both have full beards and long hair, we can look pretty scary I guess. Well, we've been told more then once ) and whoever asked usually high tails it out of there fast like! We laugh like hell when that happens! Good times!
It's really a shame that some of these great symbols have been tainted by extremism, all really cool looking symbols.

As for the Black Sun, you are correct that the specific form that was shown here is not ancient. But it is a more stylized, formalized version of many historic forms, mostly from the Migration Era; some are attributed to the Alemani. One example even has a swastika in the center. Also, there is apparently no evidence that Himmler was responsible for incorporating the modern version in Wewelsburg castle. I have read something to the effect that it probably dates to the 19th century, although I don't recall the source. I wish we knew more about it.
It's reputation as an almost exclusively "far right" symbol has really only come about recently, from what I've seen.
Good run down on these symbols. Thank you for your hard work!
Maybe someone already thought this but I think that the sun wheel is a representation of the 4 seasons. Maybe it's a way to describe the weather changing during the year and all the various occurrences that comes to life in the various seasons.
One thing some people do not seem to understand is that there is a difference between folkish pagans like the AFA and neo nazis plus skin heads who are using Norse symbols and turned into hate symbols
Well said.
No no no, you still don't get it.
It's not that they don't "understand that there's a difference". It's that they don't consider you different than the skin heads.
By simply following your Culture's traditions, beliefs and religion...... that makes you a naatzi to them.
They aren't misunderstanding anything. They simply hate you, your beliefs, your culture and your race
@John Ludwig There is a huge interest in pagan religions nowadays. I’m just annoyed it’s getting mixed up in & always has been mixed up in politics. There needs to be a new religion, a more anarchist type of pagan tribe. Ruling equally, together. Holding each other accountable like the Norse did. Holding fast to the traditions we know about and letting go of assumptions. We are heading in the right direction, but it’s clearly so messy.
Thank you for being a voice of reason on this.
The symbol is also a Navajo Indian design showing the 4 seasons. There are buildings here in New Mexico that have it incorporated into the building.
Thank you for the great video and information. Only one issue the winged Nazi Othella rune is different than the ancient rune, which had no wings.
For the most part, when it comes to the "biker" thing (those scary guys on Harleys--I mean real 1%ers), the phenomenon came out of WWII. For them, the wearing of Nazi regalia were simply trophies of combat. At least, that's how it started.
It is such a shame that ancient symbols have been perverted in such a horrid way. I agree people get overly sensitive over the symbols, not bothering to educate themselves on what those symbols actually represent. Thank you for doing your part to reclaim ancient symbol and their meanings.
They should be reclaimed, they have been used to represent mass murder rather than positivity and healing and its a massive shame.
The best comment here. As I said the best way to fight hate is to enlighten and reclaim our symbols.
your a positive person and you kept it simple and straight to the point very well said mate 👍
I might be wrong but I seem to remember reading about the natsoc party using the armanen runes and i know when it comes to armanen the s rune does not mean sun but VICTORY so I'm sure it was an abbreviation but i suppose also had a double meaning of victory....also I believe somewhere the party used armanen version of the O rune (Anenerbe maybe?) which they called Odal and the armanen meaning was something like ancestry or heritage
One thing I might respectfully correct you on is that the "black sun" is based on stuff you can find in archeology and is perhaps some kind of solar symbol. "Zierscieben" are round symbols that were buried with Germanic women and many incorporate sig runes in a circle or some other round complex shape.
@Faroe The sun wheel is actually ancient. I questioned this when I was woke. Then someone showed me the proof via archeological record. There have been found many sun wheels, each with a different amount of "spokes." I think the Nazi SS sunwheel had a different number of spokes from the ancient versions, but those ancient ones had all different amounts of spokes too and looked very similar to the one the Nazis used.
@@HroduuulfSonOfHrodger I'm curious as to what the differing number of "spokes" mean, if anything. I've seen ancient metal sunwheels with 5, 9, or 12 of them, the last matching up with the "modern" symbol we were talking about. As for the number 9, I know that's a recuring number in the norse sagas, so there might be a connection there at least.
The runes resemble the roman alphabet letters SS so the "Schutz Staffel" or Protective Squadron adopting them is kind of a no-brainer IMO. On the Hooked Cross, the Finnish Air Force had been using it since 1918. They finally gave in to pressure 2 years ago to forsake the desecrated symbol. Hitler's thousand-year Reich was a total bust, but it soiled a part of our shared history that was at minimum 7000 years old. It is suspected to have originated even earlier in pre-history. India still uses it so maybe someday it can be cleansed of Hitler's taint and be recovered.
That someday will come after you guys are over run

Cool channel. I'm learning a lot on here
Most of the runes look awesome. It is a shame that you can't really use them anymore because of these associations...
The Odal rune looks the best to me, it kind of reminds me of an octopus.
I’m not racist. I’m just cultured and if your offended that’s fine because you can’t fix stupid. Love the channel man!
You can love your own people while not hating anyone. This is what they don't comprehend.
@@kevincounter6879 who doesn’t comprehend? Who’s offended? Can you tell me an example?
@@aliciamarie9704 There is a mindset in the USA that if you are pro-"white" or pro-Europe, then you are automatically a racist. They promote that all other non-"white" people can love themselves, their cultures, their lands, BUT Europeans cannot because if we do, we are Nazis. It's a hypocritical double standard. Much of this is even being taught in college. I took many sociology classes and my mind was blown how they are indoctrinating our youth. The fact that they teach only whites can be racist, and no one else can be racist, should be eye opening. They teach that all humans on this planet are "people of color" BUT NOT WHITES, yet they demand diversity and inclusion while excluding one group of people. There is no equality in that, and I won't support any of it because I have always stood up for All People as Equals. I won't let them target my people, nor will I let my people target any other people. I've been fighting for human rights for over 4 decades now.
Racism the term was invented by communists to brainwash you into believing there’s something wrong preferring your own race.
You’re* there you go, fixed your stupid! You’re welcome!
One of your best videos. Absolutely loved every second of it
i appreciate this vid so much thank you for making videos like this
You're on target, thankyou!
Thank you for giving straight forward explanations without all the political bias that always follows this intersection of Germanic history. Not everything that came out of the NSDAP was "evil" , and guilt by association is just retarded. ❣️
WW2 would have never happened if Britain never started bombing Germany. Just give Germany their land back and millions of lives wouldn't have been destroyed.
@@SeanThomasCross Yes the treatment of Germany during the first and second WW was absolutely disgusting and no wonder why the allied countries have done everything they could to twist the truth...it's truly shameful!
Nothing they did was evil. Evil won and it should be visible by all to see now
Yeah I agree 100% and another example is the Nazi science that the US took which with them the United States was able to go to the Moon. Also, I'm talking about Wernher von Braun which he led NASA'S development of the Saturn V rocket that took Apollo 11 to the Moon.
@@user-he8lq8ny3v If "Europa the last Battle" was watched by everyone the world would shift over night.
Best video you’ve done in ages! Thank you for keeping it short and sweet and explains exactly what these symbols mean. I hate that we can’t wear or show these symbols without fear of persecution from the uneducated and the woke brigade. There is nothing but positivity in (the majority) of these symbols and it really is about time they were understood for what they really are!
I am English and am an AS heathen. I wore a Fylfot pin on my jacket for years, but after getting so much abuse and negative feedback and looks when seen out with it, I eventually took it of as I was getting so upset by the persecution and total misunderstanding of its meaning.
You only have to look at people like Okoi Jones from the band Bölzer to see how badly misrepresented these symbols are in this day and age. It’s very sad really.
But we can wear these symbols and should never fear anyone. This was the Germanic tribal Warrior Ethos. We stared down the Roman Empire, the mightiest empire ever known, and we won! They never took all our lands. We were the only tribe I know who could stand up to Rome. We don't need to be "racist" or hate anyone, but we also should never put up with their woke BS. Wear your mjolnir and your runes. Even wearing a swastika could lead to an educational conversation on the origin and true meaning, separate from Nazi Germany. But those Germans were my brothers and sisters. I am mostly Germanic. Blond hair, blue eyes, the whole 9. I am superior to no one. But no one is superior to me, either! That is the equality that they seek.
I'm wondering if there are any more of those beautiful sweaters available for purchase? I'll take 3 please! Skal
My Girlfriend is Cantonese, my heritage is Norwegian, we learn from eachother, and enjoy viking movies and Hong Kong action movies, and Canto food (scandi food is trash) the key is just enjoying things and not hating or disrespecting people for what they enjoy but also letting people have their thing and not co opting or changing it to suit your own modern lifestyle.
“No hating or disrespecting people”
Also you: hates on a cultural food
@@Veronica-hp6ul Scandinavian food is bad, we admit it freely. few good natural ingrediants come from the region other than fish.
@@horrifyinggelatinousblob I love “Scandinavian” food. But…Sweden, Norway, and Denmark have different types of cultural food. Bavarian German food is my fav though. Fish is healthy. Danish pastries are just… they need to be worshiped.
I have several of these runes in my home. I have to explain them always. I just take my culture back
Can you tell me which books you were talking about at the end please? Thanks
did you ever find them?
I saw this thing Ng on the swastika, where it seems, that originally it comes from the position of the big dipper in relation to the north star, depending on season. Basically the big dipper rotates around the north star 90° per season, so if you draw a picture with the spring, summer, fall, and winter position, it looks like the swastika. Try googling "Big Dipper Swastika".
I am a racist in the sense that I want the best for all races and that each race enhances its distinctive qualities, but I am against forced racial mixing
This.
I disagree with some explanations here. I'm from Finland and I study magic symbology. The "algiz" depicts a family tree and is a symbol for life. So if you use it upside down it means death.
Swastika is the real "black sun". It depicts the "big dipper" in four different stages, spinning around north star. This creates black sun if you look over exposed foto from night sky. So it just means time. It was used to protect cattle and property.
Most early "Thor's hammer" jewelry seem to depict the amanita mushroom, that has been smoked in north for thousands of years. It has the similar effect as weed when smoked.
The real hammer of Thor (ukonvaaja in Finnish) means lightning. It most likely originally was just sand melted by lightning (it creates glass). And later morfed in to stone blade and axe head.
I don't know much about other runes. But seems like here has been secret language based on runes, but it only used dots...
The symbol used now to indicate 'BLUETOOTH'!
It's on nearly every cell phone out there!😊💜👍
I know people watched the DaVinci code, but were we those people commenting when Tom Hanks was educating a class of those people learning the real meanings of the symbols...? ....eat that those people!....
Sorry I had to troll lol. Great video and content. I really did relearn alot :). Good job 👍
Also, racism simply means I love my People more than their people.
There is nothing wrong with that.
Just called my little boy Tyr (takes some explaining and that he’s not a girl 🤦🏼♀️😂) anyway I ordered him a personalised blanket with the Tyr rune and was told I was inappropriate 🤦🏼♀️
I know this video is going to be demonetized because of the subject matter, but thank you for taking the time to cover it.
Thank you so much for this. The symbol you have on here from my religion is about peace. So I greatly thank you for this so much🙏🏼
How do you find the racist in a group? Listen to the one talking about racism and you will have found your racist.
Your comment doesn’t have anything to do with the statement I made.
However, I did find your comment extremely disoriented, naïve, and completely misunderstanding what racism really is. Racism comes from hate. Recognizing differences between different racial groups is not racism. Acting on the knowledge of those differences creates hate And cannot be used in any way for a good or to avoid trouble.
Thank you for this information. It’s so sad that people take these symbols from someone culture n make them represent something bad.
Here in Austria we had an upheaval about the raven banner lately, i read somewhere thats also Norse?
Slavic Kolovrat can be considered a variant of the “original” swastika and it shares the latter’s solar symbolism. It is an attribute of the Slavic solar deity, Svarog , appropriately represented by the cyclic shape of the motif.
The movement of the sun is indicated by the rotation of the symbol’s rays which look as if they’re spinning. Etymology of the world, which would translate as the “rotating circle” confirms this visual impression.
The number of kolovrat’s rays differs, but they are all arched at the top. Some of those arches are directed clockwise and others counter-clockwise.
There are various interpretations of kolovrat apart from it being the sun symbol. For example, it is believed that it stands for the eternal cycle of life and death. Contemporary neo-pagan movements ascribe elaborate interpretations to the kolovrat, and frequently apply the symbol to various items during Maslenitsa festival and to little statues known as “polovetskie baby”.
In addition, several geographical locations (in Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia) bear the name “Kolovrat”. It also functions as a surname, especially among the Czech people.
I am German.. i tell you, its hard over here. I wear Runes on a daily basis for over 20 Years now. Once people know me for 20 Minutes, they know i am not a nazi, but before that.. oh boy. I had very long hair back then, and a huge beard. People called me "The viking hippie" Than, i lost my hair.. the beard stayed, now i am the neo nazi. I will still use Runes.. The oldest runes found in Germany are from over 1800 Years ago.. just because some fucking nazis missused them for a few years.. i wont stop.
Don't hate your brothers. Maybe you know the Nazi version of history. Is that taught over there? I doubt it, but I hope so. Over here in the USA we are only taught the Allied/American/Israeli version of the WWII history. I have never heard the German version of what happened, and have had a difficult time finding it. I am retired US military, mostly Germanic, with blond hair and blue eyes. I won't shit on my German brothers and sisters. I am against racism, and am against anything anti-white/European/German, as that is also racism. We Germanic/Nordic people need to unite and stick together. I type to you while drinking my Paulaner Hefe-Weizen German imported ale. I drink this every single night in honor of my ancestors, Odinn, Tyr, Thor, the Aesir and Vanir.
@@HroduuulfSonOfHrodger Ah yes.. its a topic in school.. many many times. Even in Elementary.. After School, germans are literally Experts on WWII and the Bullshit our ancestors did. Its a part of what we call "Vergangenheitsbewältigung" Or as you would say: "A lingering sense of guilt from the Past" Thats why i always laugh when people who don't know germany, call us nazis. The word Nazi comes from Natinal Socialist.. There is no national pride left here.. we might have the lowesr number of Nazis on the face of the earth. I don't know what you mean by "don't hate your brothers"? And there is no German version, everything you got told is true..
@@VonBrachsenbruegge The Nazis were Germans, like you and me. They are our brothers and sisters. That's what I meant. But yes, Germany comes across as more liberal than America. So what they teach you in school, is it truly the Nazi Germany side of the story? Or are they teaching you the same version they teach us over here in the USA? That's what I meant. I want to know what the Germans believed, and why all the German citizens seemed to support what Hitler and the Nazis were doing. I've seen the rally videos and there were thousands, if not tens or hundreds of thousands of loyal supporters there for Hitler. Were they all duped? Or was Hitler actually doing something good for his people and that's why they loved him so much? This is the side of the story I wish to hear.
@@HroduuulfSonOfHrodger Don't get me wrong.. i love my country and its past. Except 1912 til 1945. My ancestors are very likely cheruski and brukteri, and i live in one of the oldest Citys.. My bed is in the exact location where Varus had his tent 1800 years ago.. I shit u not. We still have buildings and ruins from this time. A few 100 Meters away there is a museum and a replica from the gates of Varus Summer camp.. Maybe i take some pictures and link them here. We have houses older than your Nation, where people still live in..
@@kevincounter6879 Nope.. Hitler did no good. Except bring up national pride after a lost WWI. It was like in north korea these days.. Say something against Hitler, and you die. There is no "German side"..
Hitler’s original goal was to keep Germany German, so he used old Germanic symbols. He was not a fan of immigration, and didn’t like non-Germans marrying Germans. He also used Roman symbols due to his appreciation for their military strategy and strength. The Nazi party didn’t care about any of that, they just wanted power. I like ironic history, and their lunacy fascinates me. They were the 2nd coming of the Roman Empire, and stupidly though that history wouldn’t repeat itself. 🤣🤦♀️
The swastika is tricky. The symbol made its way across Europe due to Indo-Aryan migration that began roughly 4,000 years ago. Hinduism is over 4,000 years old. People would be highly surprised by how much Indian influence has made its way into many cultures. The Nazi “black sun” is a modification of the symbol on India’s national flag, so yes the Nazis did appropriate symbols from India…and their reasoning has racist roots.
It didn't come from India.... other way around. It's pretty well known in Anthropology that there were Indo-European migrations , as you mentioned, but they were from Europe into India not the other way around like you seem to imply. This has been confirmed not only through linguistics and cultural similarities, but through DNA studies. Northern India has a significant portion of European Steppe DNA(R1A). This is common knowledge
In fact, it's where the entire term "INDO-European" comes from. All the oldest depictions of swastikas are from Europe as well, around the Ukraine region. The oldest Wheels and Chariots are also from this exact same region. And we know these things are all connected with Solar symbology.
So no, no one "appropriated" anything from India. What an ignorant statement. You sound like one of those insane Indian Nationalists.
It's very bizarre that you know about the Indo-European migrations into India, who clearly brought their solar symbology there, yet you try to say Germans "appropriated" it. Gtfo
A 10,000 year old Swastika was found in Ukraine, which if you hadn’t noticed, is in Europe.
No, it was the third realm, or age, of what previously the German Holy Roman Empire which ironically came about by crushing the native Germans under karl the great. You’re not nearly as knowledgeable as you think you are, probably bc you are blinded by your brainwashed bias
Ignorant
Hi I am interested about the books you were mentioning. Could you please give me the titles? Thanks and continues with your great job!!!
did you ever find em?
You seem like a genuine good man. You got that "good side" shine. Keep shining =)
The nazis did a super job when it came to research. Too bad they were so fucked up. The sun wheel in the castle is located at wewelsberg, 2 hours from where I live. Still haven’t made it there but I need to go. I need to see that place for myself. Thnx for the video.
Sounds like some cognative dissonace going on there, amazing how they were so wrong with all the right evidence 🤔
@@NedTheEvictor1274 interpretation is everything. Could say that very same thing about Christianity as well. It all has to do with how you look at it. Potatoe potato🤷🏽♂️.
