Greetings ! There looks like a clue in the Voluspa, when Askr and Embla are found "capable of little, lacking in fate, breath they had not, spirit they had...
This is just a thought that a friend and I had a short while ago. We wondered if Ragnarok had already happened. The reason being, we know of quite a few Gods...
Lets try kicking in the door! Raganarok is a great tale - this deity kills that being and vice versa: with some the logic is obvious when thinking about say...
The 'eternal core' is not in question as far as I'm concerned - so lets get 'bogged down in detail' in the knowledge that our core faith will not suffer. I...

Hi all. Hope the ostara blot went well for everyone. I'm sorry I don't see everyone as much as I used to but my heathenry is developing in its own way and I am...
Sorry to hear about yoyur grandfather-but good to hear that things are working for you. Hope to see you at the blots-if not at the gathering. Good luck and...
Yes, sorry to hear about your Grandfather, but pleased to hear you are progressing in our faith and finding your way. Good luck with the job interview, and...
Greetings, I have been studying various Pagan and Heathen paths for some time. I believe I have decided on the Northern Path. I hope I stick with it. All these...

Sorry-I flipped on that. Everyone has their own views-some will greet the day with a specific 'Hail Sunna Ritual', where they greet her nurturing life giving...
... By warding I mean protecting an area where a ritual, prayers, or whatever is being done. I read somewhere, wish I could find where I read it, of some...
Warding-interesting! Firstly it is normal to clear - or define a sacred space-but that is merely to show that the area in question is sacred for the duration...
Greetings, The recent exchange revealed one of the problems that we all experience: that is the consequence of so many would be writers about our faith seeing...

I'm not sure what the 'others' you mention might be-certainly such things are not a problem in respect of our normal spiritual activities: such ideas come from...
Hello, Yes, what Mike says is true. I think what you mean by the 'others' are what are commonly known as evil spirits. Things that can harm you. As Mike has...
