Hof and Dedicated Pagan Land in Maine

So, it looks like my wife and I will be Maine bound, approximately Springtime next year.

The location is fantastic and comes with Asatru neigbors (notably my kinsman).
And most specificly a well-laid concrete slab.

It's just screaming to made into a hall ready for the worship of the Gods.
With luck and work we can do this.

The End of a Homestead

Heilsa All,

Last weekend, I helped my kinswoman move out from her home. It was a quite a mixed feeling occasion. It was a fantasticly excellent idea for her to get out and move with the change doing a lot of good for her. But this was a place that has seen many Blots and offerings given over the almost ten years there. The Landwights have been very, very good to Raven Kindred North.

A final thanking those helpful wights and inviting them into her new place. There were laughs, tears and stories… Continue

Freyfaxi Blot Report

This year we tried to have folks bring a small aspect of the harvest holiday to the Blot. Specificly, my wife's excellent idea was to have folks bring vegetarian meals to the Blot. With the hope to get people thinking about the land, even before the Blot. (Of course we did have a few meat products at the meal, as we are Heathens...)

Before the Blot, the wife and I managed to make an unintentional blood sacrifice in the form gardening. Apparently, after five years thorn bushes become trees (who… Continue

Tyr Blot

Not surprisingly, the RKN Tyr Blot is always really something special for me. I live my job with the law. It's a 24/7 vocation. When my clients succeed or fail, I have to share in that - whether I like it or not. My cell phone is on usually around the clock for my clients. Most of them are in dire straits and need sound advice. The wrong actions can easily result in families being sundered. For our ancestors, the legal fight was an attempt at substituting and alleviating the physical fight. What… Continue

International Asatru Summer Camp and Germany

Heilsa All,

I've been home since Sunday, back from a 2.5 week tour through Germany culminating in less then a week at the International Asatru Summer Camp in Denmark before heading home via Dublin. I had an awesome and relaxing time in Germany.

From a spiritual only perspective, this was the skinny -

I declined going to the opening ritual as a result of philosophical differences. I was uncomfortable with the preamble explanation of what the ritual was about. In the end, it wouldn't have been… Continue

At 9:44am on November 18, 2009, Bayou Mage said…: no i don't know the history of calderon farms. if i can judge by freya aswynn's blog, they aren't necessarily the best role models, but i still can appreciate that they are attempting to bring possession into a heathen/pagan context. be nice if there were better representatives of it out there. i never said i thought highly of calderon farms itself, and was the one who posted the freya aswynn blog to show that that particular group had abused and misused spirit working to their own selfish and sometimes perverse ends. which is also why i posted the articles by manbo racine which offer commonsense advice about dealing with claims of possession, to tell the real from the bogus, the uplifting from the manipulative

Ok... Hermetism and Alchemy are a given as going together, as they have gone together pretty well since the days of ancient Alexandria. The "Irish Heathen" is a single thought, and does not mean Heathen in the Germanic sense but in the literal sense of "dweller upon the heaths", as my own prechristian Irish ancestry traces back to those who lived upon the heathlands. However, I do not really follow the prechristian Irish religion, though I do study it extensively, and have formed an intimate relationship with a single one of the ancient Irish spirits, Morrigan. I study these things because they are a part of my ancestry, which brings us to Vodou, which is an afro-caribbean tradition but which heavily emphasizes the honoring of one's own ancestors, which is a core component of Vodou shared alike by those of recent African or Afro-Caribbean descent as well as those of us who are not of recent african or afro-caribbean descent. As to how Alchemy reconciles with Vodou, Alchemy has never really been a proper tradition in its own right, rather it has always attached itself to the prevailing traditions, because Alchemy is when you boil it right down to its essence nothing but the science of the sacred, and a very comprehensive science at that, with which virtually any tradition worthy of the name may better be understood, IMHO. Hope that clears things up.
