Their ancient horse DNA basically proved that modern domesticated horses originated in the Pontic-Caspian Steppe with Indo-Europeans. Specifically, in the Indo-Iranian (Aryan) Sintashta culture.

In the paper, they referred to the Pontic-Caspien Steppe as the “Western Eurasian Steppe.” They never say anything about this being in Europe.

They concluded horses originated in the “Western Eurasian Steppe.” Lol. That name is so ambigous. 😀

Clever way to prevent the public from knowing this important invention in world history was invented in Europe by people who were genetically modern Europeans.

"..it is not true that the Gods dwell only in heaven, for all things are full of the Gods"

Iamblichus explains in De Mysteriis that each god's authority was allotted to a different region of the cosmos: the sky, earth, or certain sacred groves or in the idols of the gods themselves

The Ockelbo runestone Gs 19 is one of the Sigurd stones since one of the figures, although only partly visible, is clearly Sigurd thrusting his sword into Fafnir. The original stone was destroyed and only a copy remains.
According to Viktor Rydberg (in Kempff’s. VII IF.), the tree represents the world tree, and the bird on its top is the cock Gyllenkam or the eagle Veðrfölnir.

He also says the man with the ring is Mimir, and that the horned beast above him is one of the deer that eat the tree. He identified the man on the left with a horn as Lóðurr and he says the woman with scissors,above the two playing a board game, is one of the Norns.

Consider the magical and ritual use of runes and other sacred signs in the context of what Iamblichus says here.

“Intellectual understanding does not connect theurgists with divine beings, for what would prevent those who philosophise theoretically from having theurgic union with the Gods? But this is not true; rather it is the perfect accomplishment of ineffable acts religiously performed and beyond all understanding, and it is the power of ineffable symbols comprehended by the Gods alone that establishes theurgical union. Thus, we don't perform these acts intellectually for then their energy would be intellectual and depend on us, which is not at all true. In fact, these very symbols, by themselves, perform their own work, and the ineffable power of the Gods with which these symbols are charged, itself, recognizes, by itself, its own images. It is not awakened to this by our thinking.”
De Mysteriis 96,13-97.9

Last line excluded, this is wise and useful advice. A lot of friends have been sharing photos of moonlit skies recently; there seems to be a growing appreciation for the cycles, ambience and power of the moon this year 👌🏻 I intend to time my rituals more closely to the lunar cycle hereon.

Can confirm the number who put "Heathen" was just 4,722, and "Druid" 2,489. So "Shamans" outnumber both combined. Clearly the dominant and therefore preferable legal label for our religion must be "Pagan"

I’d like to give a few personal shout-outs to some channels that are owned by men I am fortunate to have met face-to-face.

Germanic Paganism:

Order of the Sacred Mannerbunde: I am very fortunate to be able to call C.N.J. Cornwell, the owner of this channel a close friend. I have attended several of his group’s events and the man is passionate about Anglo-Saxon paganism. I would also like to emphasise his value as a friend, he is a compassionate man who truly cares about the wellbeing of his peers.

Survive the Jive – Tom is an expert in the world of all things Anglo-Saxon and pagan, he knows his stuff and I’m sure most of our followers know him already. I would also like to add I have practiced with him and he is a sincere believer and I am grateful to have been guided by him in pagan practice.

Sigmund’s Metaphysical Männerbund – I have spent many hours with the man who runs this channel, he is a generous friend who knows tonnes about Anglo-Saxon paganism. He is also a fantastic musician, writer, and craftsman. Definitely follow him if you don’t already.

Redbad's Hall – This dutchman is charming and knowledgeable, certainly check this smaller channel out.

The Fyrgen • ᚫᛚᚢ:ᚢᛚᚫ - I’ve had the pleasure of briefly meeting Dan, after hearing him perform his inspiring music in person. I’m also a fan of his podcast which he regularly posts episodes of right on telegram. Certainly follow the Fyrgen if you don’t already.

Vaishnavism:

Modern Kshatriya – One of the kindest gentlest souls I have met. This man follows the Dharma so closely. He’s well-spoken and hugely knowledgeable about various Vedic scriptures. If you are at all interested in Vaishnavism, Vedanta, The Bhagavad Gita etc – check him out.

Buddhism:

Egbert Moray-Falls – This man has grown to be one of my close friends. I consider him my go-to if I have any questions about anything Buddhism. I have spent time with him morning until night, and he is meditating and practicing throughout the day, perhaps the most devoted religious practitioner I know. If you’re at all interested in Tantric Buddhism, I’d strongly recommend following this channel.

TALKING POINT 10 - WHERE ARE YOU REALLY FROM?
We Odinists know the answer to this question. It is the most important question to ask of ourselves. Where are we from spiritually? Where do our spiritual roots lie? Sadly, many of our fellow-countrymen are spiritually lost. They don't even know where they come from. Some, full of self-loathing, totally repudiate their own roots and culture. They have a slave mentality and condemn their own history and want to punish their fellow Englishmen. But we Odinists know where we are from. We connect with our innermost being through the strength that we derive from our ancestry. The ideals of our forefathers inspire us and make us resolute. And at the heart of these ideals are our Gods, the Gods of our folk.
We know we really come from the Northland. We are living in it now. This is our home, not just because it says so on our passport – a frivolous piece of paper issued by the government – but because it says so in our hearts, and because we feel it in our blood. As we say in our Naming rite, that we recite at the reception into the community of each newborn infant – the newborn representing the most highly honoured personage among the faithful – “Truly, our folk, that sprang from the northern forest, armed with thunder and clad with wings, shall still a wider world command!”

I just want to make it absolutely clear that Tom of Survive the Jive is one of the modern pagan thinkers I most respect, and I consider him a friend. There is absolutely no discord between he and I, personally. If and when I 'counter-signal' something he writes or says it is always intended in the most respectful way possible, and only if it's something I feel strongly about, such as the rectitude (or lack thereof) of the Windsors.

Óðin is a name that relates to Oðr just ás Woden relates to woð. Each can be translated as frenzy or ekstasis. But this divine frenzy is not like the frenzy of a man late for work or a hysterical woman, it is something else entirely. There was an equivalent of this ecstatic state know to theurgists too as Iamblichus explains in De Mysteries:

"From the beginning, it is necessary to divide ecstasy into two species: one is turned toward the inferior [and the other reaches up to the superior]; one is filled with foolishness and delirium, but the other imparts goods more honorable than human wisdom. One degenerates to a disorderly, confused and material movement, but the other gives itself to the cause that rules over the very order of the cosmos. The former deviates from understanding because it is deprived of knowledge, but the latter because it is attached to beings that transcend all human understanding. The former is unstable, the latter unchangeable; the first is counter to nature (para phusin), the latter is beyond nature (huper phusin); the former makes the soul descend, the latter raises it up..."

Look at these three WHG skulls (2 male, 1 female). They have quite prominent cheek bones of the sort you see in some Baltic and Nordic people. They have wide faces and strong square jaws but with weak chins (not pointy).

The eye sockets are angles downwards as in modern Europeans (asians and native Americans generally more level) and they are rectangular like Europeans and Australoids (Africans have round sockets)
We are looking at European skulls, but not typical of any modern Europeans today.

Therefore these people would have looked European but not the same as modern Europeans

Finds from the recently discovered Anglo Saxon woman burial in Northamptonshire. The Guardian did an entire write up without once using the word Anglo-Saxon.

This woman was once of the early Christians from around 650 AD. There was plenty of paganism about at the time too.
