My Man ! Your esoteric views are eye opening. Which is why on behalf of all the audience of this channel I can say we are very much obliged and we are waiting dearly for the rune divination and mental fortitude content.
You are such a great teacher for us sorcerers out there in the world. You have a deep deep understanding and I’m glad there’s someone that understands truly what witchcraft is all about. I loved your comment about the church screaming in pain 🤣
It's amazing How Norse and Scandanavian Folk magic can develop so many Dynamics of philosophy with even the most basic and elementary techniques and principles... Much Love and respect From Eire✌️
"A church will scream in pain!" 😂😂😂oh I laughed so hard Arith!!! Please please keep doing what you do🐝😎🤘 I enjoyed the more personal perspective shared in this video 💙
@@ArithHärger I though .. lightning .. was the killer and not the thunder ? Well, .. the gods take what they want. Wonder if the goat meat is still safe to eat after gutting, or does steaming the gut with electricity ruin the whole animal ? Herd folk stories from Greece where Zeus lightning bolt a bear to feed a staving family cause they kept the faith during drought.
I very much enjoy your wisdom and knowledge filled videos and your easy going style. I especially like your occasional chuckle at your cleverness , just all round delightful. 5 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Spot on, we do not understand the concept of magic, what it meant to the people of the time, mainly because of indoctrination in the Medieval times that still resonates today. To many the word itself is mostly misunderstood never mind the concept.
Arith your knowledge is vast and impressive. Yet it is the cadence of your voice that is your most effective tool in your educational toll box. Your ease and confidence in communication makes the information all the more accessible. Many thanks.
Hello my dear friend, how have you been of late? I have seen your beautiful garden with my good eye, hehe. Yes, indeed it's always special when Thunor comes around, but this was the day I spoke about when those 60+ goats died due to Thunor :'( so also a very sad day. Makes us humble. I always rejoice when nature shows its power, but at the same time I'm occasionally reminded how cruel it can be.
@@ArithHärger yes kiddo but as i said before it was kinder and faster than the slaughter house .... glad your eye is getting better all is good here in the wilds of cornwall , take care my special friend !
Wow I was listening to you for a few mins thinking, this is gibberish and im getting know where, but stuck with you, and all of the sudden everything clicked. Good stuff dude! Thanks
I recently found your channel after exploring ancestral and animist philosophy and ritual. It's been interesting to see the kinds of things that are more-or-less universal and the kinds of things that are culturally and/or temporally specific. Your method of explanation is extremely helpful and I'm very grateful. Presently I find myself struggling to interact with this "web" and its threads with wisdom or confidence. I think your channel is helping to affirm some things for me, increasing my confidence and curiosity. Again, thank you!
I'm not a patron unfortunately because of my financial means but I would love a real in-depth video about prayer in the northern tradition. The older I get, unfortunately I have crippling arthritis in all my joints so it is limited a lot of my options and practice, the use of Prayer and Sumbel is what has sustained me in my practice at the age of 53. I've been in the northern tradition since I've been 19. I was raised in what folks call nowadays Appalachian conjure (so we just called a miracle making or folk magic then) and the bedrock of the tradition I grew up with was prayer. I was told," to pray until your body shakes and your tears fall like rain (thanks Nana Zylvania who taught me to pray)." And I'd like to get your take on it.
Arith there is no confusion here my friend. I was watching this and finishing some of your sentences before you. Its all about EXPERIENCE. You have to experience this inorder to clearly understand what you have said is so true. As always excellent work and i hope one day we see it in a book. Much thanks for the work and concise way of communicating these topics you have done over the years. Thank you for your time! Mr. Härger
wonderful arith this resounds. In very few words and in perfectly understandable english you have explained what hundreds of magicians, occultists, sorcerers, witches have tried to explain all their lives and failled miserably. I'm very impressed
The word Gnosis, Arith, direct unmitigated knowledge is perhaps the best translation of what you're describing. The book Stranger in a Strange Land also called this Grokking 😉 please help my house I could use another magical servitor 😉
The word kyndig is used today about someone who is very knowledgeable in their field. The fjöld part, is where I'm struggling a bit with a more modern word replacement.
This is a great topic. I appreciate you sharing so much of your knowledge, education and experiences with us. I also love that this was recorded during a thunder storm ⚡☁💥
Thanks for another good one, my spirit brother! So funny to find out what I've been up to and never knew there was a word for..or even a concept that exists to more than just me..what if I am an elf or something? Lol This reminds me of something that popped into my head last time. That quote that insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result..and i was thinking about CD's that used to skip repeatedly but now it just goes dark for a while and picks up later on. There is perhaps a strange and vast connection between human behavior and technology. Or our mistakes have found ways to reveal themselves in our scientific manifestations. Idk, but it brings about some fun thoughts, eh? I like to pull myself away from feeling security and comfort in the system and be more like the changeling. I make Lots of mistakes. I encourage it in myself to become aware of a purer element within. I can change the weaknesses i am aware of. Lately it is communication. I feel so bad for all the people I have dumped comments on in order to sift through my lifes imbalances, because it is hard to go back and review them. It feels like getting stuck in a rewind when i need to go forward. I will review everything when I am more satisfied with myself, though. I would never let good and respected information slip by me, I just cannot waste the time Id want to in defense when I need to build a solid foundation. I feel that many good conversations get put on hold because of this, and for that I am dreadfully sorry. Send me healing magic--anyone that wants to talk--and we can start getting into the meat of existence and really start seeing things more clearly! I cannot wait until I am able to send powerful blessings to others. Id do it more often now but I do not trust my wiring enough just yet and wouldnt want to make someone accidentally grow a tail or something..thats an exaggeration, of course, but I do think I may be able to help others grow another kind of tale and cant wait to get started.
I appreciate and value your personal thoughts on matters concerning Oldnorse religion and animism, Seiðr and Fjölkyngi, you full-knowledged man! Is that an Eldertree you sit beneath? Would be very fitting. Tige tank!
@@ArithHärger You're welcome! There is a lot of folklore about eldertrees in Friesland, even with 5th century child burials between their roots. Be well Arith, your eye looks a lot better today!
@@ArithHärger I think that it all boils down to how each people, person, egregores, cultures, religions etc interpret and mainly manifest their particular and collective reality dogmatized in rites, mythology, symbols etc. caring in regional, temporal, vibrational, multidimensional, planetary, universal, multiuniversal and without definitions beyond the cognizable of infinity.

what you said about knowing something in a moment by instinct - is the way that i have always considered magic - this totally make sense to me ; and the few people that have asked me (about magic) have noticed that i have an ability to intuit something in a situation. The church screaming in pain- that's funny. i often have thoughts like that (heheh) i also notice that i do not think it is random or a mistake that 'church or christian Ads ' will come up before a pagan video of some sort - whether it be like yours or even some music.
Great video. To me its a kind of synchronicity (although I don`t like using that word). It seems that many elements flow together and manifest into consciousness at a specific time when this happens. Picking those elements apart doesn`t bring anything, which makes it difficult to explain...
You are one of the very few who checks the description :p hehe. Yes, it was a very sad day... nature is as beautiful as it is cruel and from time to time we are reminded of that. Thank you friend :)
I understood this just fine. Taking what's known, transmuting it with experience that bolsters intuition, and then applying it to situations or things that are beyond normal comprehension. And there is a bit of method there. The stages one must take to acquire that knowledge, to observe and understand before applying. I bit of freeflow, but a method.
Absolutely love this video. If I could pick a top 5 list of people I would love to have a conversation with you would definitely be on that list. Hope you are feeling better now. Larissa x
The way you describe this concept makes me think that it could be described as Magical Intelligence. In psychology, we divide intelligence (the g factor) into crystallized (gc) and fluid (gf) intelligence. Crystallized means all the facts that you accumulate across life, i.e. names, dates, things you learned in school, etc. Fluid means being able to solve problems, apply rules across domains, draw connections, and this does not increase across the lifespan. With your elf example: A person with high magical gc but low gf could only react appropriately if the elf behaves as every other elf does. A person with high gc and high gf can adapt to the elf's new behaviour, true magical intelligence, Fjolkyngi.
It seems to me that Fjolkyngi involves some sort of elemental sensory triage of the energies in any given moment and then like MacGyver, creating a solution to attain whatever outcome the practitioner is trying to manifest. A bit of a mixed metaphor, so i guess you could also say that the triage is then used like an emergency room doctor, but i have a fondness for MacGyver and his ingenious solutions. Great video.
Correct me if I'm taking this wrong.... but, fjolkyngi is the combined working relationship between yourself and the knowledge of your natural surroundings to manipulate the reality we find ourselves in? Whether that be an alchemist, herbalist, metalergist or archeologist(Arith), but whatever the natural state your in/doing/working or find yourself in. So...fyolkyngi is mastering the sum of your useful knowledge/intuition into manifesting the reality? Ok, a Völva with divination art and seidr, etc.... and say a renoun blacksmith who forges with his blood and sweat, are both performing a type of fjolkyngi?? 🤔🤔
To be overly simplified, it sounds like it more or less means "divine knowledge" and thus power. As well as about using the right technique more than the results in and of themselves... Using the right tool for the job. Because brute force can solve some problems, but only a fool would do that... And yet a Sages wisdom is a light touch that can move mountains / do the impossible / divine remedy. Or similar to the Taoist concept of The Tao and how Taoist masters use Wu Wei, or Effortless Action, to get ideal results that are in harmony to all and not some.
I watched a documentary about the folk ways brought to Appalachia in the US from europe with migration. It is still practiced by family members. Some do not realize that they are doing it. Some things they do seem really backwards but they swear by these stories yhey told to the interviewer.
It's fascinating how many kinds of magic there are in Norse, do you have any other videos on the kinds of magic? Seiðr, Runes, etc, it'd be amazing to see the other ones as I don't have knowledge of as of now, to the point where I don't even know how to spell them here lol
Have you ever made an video ,focusing on skade or skadi and her role in nordic heathenry paganisim etc, I have a feeling she is highly underrepresented in comparison to what she may have meant to our ancestors
Arith and all, I think that it all boils down to how each people, person, egregores, cultures, religions etc interpret and mainly manifest their particular and collective reality dogmatized in rites, mythology, symbols etc. caring in regional, temporal, vibrational, multidimensional, planetary, universal, multiuniversal and without definitions beyond the cognizable of infinity.

LEONARDO GOMES from Ilha do Marajó Pará Brazil
Elf, fairie (Fae), stickman (Sasquatch) ... each culture has their own name for the "mound" people, yet all cultures have stories. Many of the stories come from the times of manmade religions that vilify and/or just don't understand paganism.
"You have probably heard the church bells... Well, when you talk about witchcraft, pagan stuff, it's normal that a church will scream in pain." LMFAO 😂🤣
At least now I know I shall have a cool place to haunt :p hehe. When the time comes make sure you invite me in. Thank you very much for your kind words :))
Not only church bells, but a John Hagee advertisement… smh… I started reporting it for hate but stopped. Wanted to ask google what kind of kids games they were playing while I’m watching learned occult videos and they tweeting to push ignorant religion on me… HA!
Hello, I don't know you but perhaps my advice will help you. You do not realize this, and maybe Arith doesn't realize it either, but this video he has created is very important on so many levels and he has perfectly explained in less than 20 minutes what magic, sorcery, trolldomr, witchcraft etc. is all about. In less than 20 minutes he has perfectly explained what hundreds of occultists, magicians, sorcereres, witches have tried to explain all their lives and through several books but faileld miserably. You came here to learn how to do, but if you do not understand the essence of it, you will never be able to do it and it will be frustrating and you end up giving up. As Arith said, it's about contemplation. So listen to the words. Arith isn't even being cryptic about it. Listen and be attentive. Pay close attention to the words he says. Arith did not waste your time. You wasted your own time because you are not paying attention and you just want to do it without knowing how to do it. You cannot do something without learning the meaning of it and how to perform a task. No offence, really. Just trying to help. This video is by far one of the best explanations I have ever came in contact with, if not the very best actually. Don't give up.

I very much enjoy these sorts of videos.
Thanks for sharing.
Experience, skills, and wisdom. You got it!
Great video. To me its a kind of synchronicity (although I don`t like using that word). It seems that many elements flow together and manifest into consciousness at a specific time when this happens. Picking those elements apart doesn`t bring anything, which makes it difficult to explain...
poor goats :(

What?? No Mr Thorstein? You must be fjoking!
Sad to say that Mr. T left us for a time. I told him not to go but his reply was only "go fjolk yerself". But he shall return, eventually.
Have you ever made an video ,focusing on skade or skadi and her role in nordic heathenry paganisim etc, I have a feeling she is highly underrepresented in comparison to what she may have meant to our ancestors
Sooo ... basically the Norse term for Science?

Not only church bells, but a John Hagee advertisement… smh… I started reporting it for hate but stopped. Wanted to ask google what kind of kids games they were playing while I’m watching learned occult videos and they tweeting to push ignorant religion on me… HA!
Your video title suggested a lesson in how to do sorcery. You wasted nearly 20 minutes of my life.
Hello, I don't know you but perhaps my advice will help you. You do not realize this, and maybe Arith doesn't realize it either, but this video he has created is very important on so many levels and he has perfectly explained in less than 20 minutes what magic, sorcery, trolldomr, witchcraft etc. is all about. In less than 20 minutes he has perfectly explained what hundreds of occultists, magicians, sorcereres, witches have tried to explain all their lives and through several books but faileld miserably. You came here to learn how to do, but if you do not understand the essence of it, you will never be able to do it and it will be frustrating and you end up giving up. As Arith said, it's about contemplation. So listen to the words. Arith isn't even being cryptic about it. Listen and be attentive. Pay close attention to the words he says. Arith did not waste your time. You wasted your own time because you are not paying attention and you just want to do it without knowing how to do it. You cannot do something without learning the meaning of it and how to perform a task. No offence, really. Just trying to help. This video is by far one of the best explanations I have ever came in contact with, if not the very best actually. Don't give up.
