A place for Aryan (European) Folkish Pagans
Even in secular matters he was incompetent, intentionally so, often assigning his lovers to important positions. He also allowed women into the Senate.
Thankfully, Elagabalus’ reign was short and both him and his mother were executed by their own guard and dragged through the streets.All of his close associates and lovers were killed too.
Elagabalus was also an ugly transvestite who dressed as a woman, wanted to cut off his penis and got circumcised. As always only degenerates go against folk traditions. Damnatio memoriae is the only thing they deserve.

Overall Kostroma might actually be a remnant of some sacrificial practice, while Kostubonko is a deity, albeit a minor one. Today Kostroma is more popular which leads to some (both intentional and not) misinterpretations of her as a Goddess.

Kostroma is a female sacrificial doll which gets destroyed in a ritual very similar to Kostrub. Some even suggest that the two were originally one, but the tradition changed later, there are also theories of both are remnants of human sacrifice, but I disagree. I think the two are very different. Kostrub clearly does not represent a human. His features are too exaggerated (akin to Greek Priapus) and his ritualistic death marks the beginning of spring, a season of vegetation and fertility.
While Kostroma’s ritual death itself is similar the character itself is much more human.
Kostubonko tradition - An Eastern Slavic ritual drowning of a straw doll, representing a male fertility god.

New Mammoth Ivory Mjolnir pendant for sale!
This piece measures 1.75 inches tall by 1.25 inches wide (that's 4.4 cm by 3.17 cm for those who speak metric) and is hand carved from ancient Mammoth Ivory found in the Alaskan tundra.
It is hand sanded and polished to a fine luster with one of the lower sides of the hammer left in the naturally weathered (but polished) condition with mineral deposits and oxidization, this feature is a testament to the truly ancient origins of this ivory.
The backside is left in the natural state as well, polished to a cream colored finish.
The face of this hammer is stained with mineral deposits due to being buried in the tundra silt and mud for some 15,000 (+/-) years! I have left a hearty layer of this mineral layer in place to display it's ancient character.
Comes with a paracord necklace. DM me if you are interested. I offer fast and free shipping.
I accept PayPal, Chime, CashApp, and Venmo.
$100.
Speaking of atheists, most are actually christian. As R.Oliver wrote:
They do not believe that one-third of a god became incarnate in the most squalid region on earth to associate with illiterate peasants, harangue the rabble of a barbarian race, and magically exalt the ignorant and uncouth to “make folly of the wisdom of this world,” so that “the last shall be first” — that they do not believe, but they cling to the morbid hatred of superiority that makes Christians dote on whatever is lowly, inferior, irrational, debased, deformed, and degenerate.
The Sedian symbol: The Yggdrasil
This beautiful piece of art is a recreation of the Yggdrasil found on the Överhogdal tapestry.
Found in 1909 during a church renovation, this tapestry is a beautiful display of the craftsmanship.
We believe that by utilizing this symbol to represent our sincerely held religious beliefs we are honoring the past, present, and future generations.

A core tenant of Pagan Revivalism is family building. Any philosophy or theology that does not put family first (or to hold it off for salvation or nirvana) is a cult

Kostubonko’s straw figure was ritualistically killed by either burning or drowning which also hints that he may have been a fertility deity who died at the change of seasons.

Just as any other spirituality or religion does, Heathenry includes both a written, "scriptural" aspect as well as an unwritten, traditional one. Modern Reconstructionists, like Protestant Christians relying on the doctrine of "sola scriptura" (i.e., that only what is written in the Bible matters as it pertains to the Christian religion), will almost always demand written proof that the unwritten Germanic traditions do in fact include an underlying Heathen basis.
But the proof are the traditions themselves and the fact that Germans follow them.

How did I become Pagan?
Growing up my family identified as Catholic, some relatives were Christians, but we never went to church or prayed at the dinner table. We only went there for weddings or funerals, I was told God existed and he would help you when needed. Throughout my life I never felt close or wanted to be a part of the church and religion. The last 5 years or so I found and embraced my true roots of Paganism and learning about my ancestors, Gods/Goddesses and our folk. I truly feel at home and the Pagan community is one of the best at helping you with any questions you have.
What is Paganism to me?
Paganism is what we were born with inside of us, it is nature, it is life and the true belief system of Europeans and descendants of European folk. I try not to see it as a religion but an embodiment of what we are, were and will always be. It is the true belief system of White (Aryan) peoples, it's what makes us stronger in life.

Elagabalus the Degenerate
Roman Emperor known as Elagabalus was, just like Egyptian Akhenaten, a traitor who went against the religion of his people (though he wasn’t a Roman himself). Just like Akhenaten he tried to introduce sun-worshipping henotheism mixing Greek Helios and foreign deity El Gabal (El is the same word used for the god in the bible, while Gabal means mountain).
He also encouraged jews and christians to visit the newly build temple too so that it: "might include the mysteries of every form of worship". In other worlds he tried to create a global religion.

Mike and Dave turn to practical advice in this one. Everyone talks about the need for the mannerbund, brotherhood, and the tribe. How do you actually build one? We give some down-to-earth advice, and Dave describes what that looks like at scale, with a run-down of the festivities at Folkish Summer Hallowing.

Kostroma has no divine features and unlike Kostrubonko is also dressed as a human. Before the main part of the ritual the doll is carried around the village and mourned as a human.

Syncretism and monism
Subversion in plain sight
They stress similarities between different Gods in order to create a global paganism of sorts, sure it’s an absolute oxymoron, but wait till you hear their word salad full of axial age decadence and esoteric gibberish.
Ignoring the differences between the Gods or trying to brush them away as mere cultural interpretations of the same divine power is just a sleepy slope. Later they will apply the same logic to ethnicities and races themselves. They want to erode ethnic belief because christianity is no longer doing that (today it’s majority Black and Hispanic).
Some may be genuine, after all don't attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity, but don’t rule out malice.
You can find many ancient truths in folk music. The stories passed down by our forefathers through ballads are, in many cases, older than even the times their verse was recorded. Northern song and lorekeeping were interwoven in this oral tradition; to which our sacred texts are no exception.
The Elder Edda - our most promiment hierological work, is intended to be sung.
Folk music is the soul in Folk-soul.

Kostubonko or Kostrub (not to be confused with Kostroma) is a figure representing male fertility, possibly a deity of rebirth similar to Baldr. The puppet was made out of straw, had long, unkempt hair and a phallus. Both are obvious fertility symbols.

If you can introduce me to a Pagan artist or are one yourself, please comment. I often need a depiction of a rare deity or obscure legend and so far I only have two artists I work with semi-frequently.

Christianity today, including all of the many minor sects, is what it was made by the patient and subtle work of the Fathers of the Church. They were a knavish lot. There is no way of knowing how many of them were actually Jews on duty for God’s Race. It is highly unlikely that any one of them was a Greek or Roman. Most of them were probably Semites or descendants of one of the other Oriental peoples that swarmed into the mongrelised Roman Empire and displaced or replaced the Romans. Whatever their racial antecedents, it is clear from their own writings, despite much later whitewashing, that they were a motley crew of shysters, psychopaths, and other misfits.
Revilo Oliver
The cultural expression of Germanic polytheism, as practiced by its devoted followers, forms a beautiful and intricate system of customs and beliefs. These traditions serve as a connection between present generations and the ways of their ancestors. Embracing our heritage, we recognize that these expressions belong to us, and it becomes our duty to uphold and revitalize them in our lands once more. A notable shift is taking place within the community of Germanic polytheists—a convergence of individuals committed to understanding and preserving our ancestral legacy. Their collective objective is to establish a vibrant living tradition deeply rooted in the ancient customs of our pre-Christian forebears. While Christianity wanes in the Western world, the yearning to reclaim our ancestral practices has ignited a movement that will endure for millennia.
We are the descendants of the Germanic tribes. We will reclaim our heritage.
This concludes my long analysis of Pamfir. It was an interesting film to analyze and hopefully to read about too.
