Symbols of Afterlife- part 1
Odinist lore goes into a great amount of detail concerning the eschatology of our ancestors. This lore is an extension of our funerary rites and explains, in a metaphorical sense, what happens when we cross over after death. As with all things in our stories, the ideas presented are symbolic, but in their underlying context they may explain the nature of afterlife phenomena. Some of them even correspond to modern accounts of Out-Of-Body-Experiences and Near-Death-Experiences, while overlapping such explanations from other cultures. Such experiences should be kept in mind when we examine these ancient descriptions, for certainly there would have been some recollection and recording of identical events among our Odinic forefathers.
We now investigate the symbols within the Helfaring that manifest in the lore immediately after the funeral. These symbols can be broken down into three categories: the Transformative, the Moral, and the Tributary. The Transformative symbols represent moving from one state to another or altering one’s form in some way. The Moral symbols deal directly with morality and how the laws of our faith are expressed in the eschatology. The Tributary symbols are reverent, giving survivors an archetype that allows us to honor those that have died. In order to properly present each symbol I will state which category it falls under, quote from The Asatru Edda on it, then explain its significance in our afterlife examination.

On the Practical Aspects of Devotion and Prayer to the Thunderer
This work is a modest compilation of some source material on the God known as Thor to the Norsemen. My hope is this work provides a good 101 for the new heathen, as well as to provide sources for what we do know of this incredibly popular God.

Sarah Dye of @hearth_and_helm is a gem and her recent appearance on the After Party is now catalogued on our site.
We discussed basics to homesteading and homeschooling,
relationships,
mental health and more.
Please note there is a fake Twitter account, “@ farmschooner” impersonating her family’s business.
All true links that Sarah verified are in the post:

Spend $30 at Home Depot to build makeshift zip guns. Sell to police buyback. Use profits to buy more real guns.
This is a legit business model.
What is "Galdr"?
Galdr is a form of esoteric magic practiced by those of the Germanic religious tradition. It is very similar to a Hindu mantra or any other type of religious hymn.
It can be used during offerings, meditation or at blót. Galdr is quite possibly the most powerful and potent spiritual tool in our ancestral religion.
It teaches to regulate breathing, is wonderful for mental clarity and health. But most of all establishes a proper reciprocal relationship with our divine parents.
In Voluspa when Odin asks "Do you know how to sing?" He is saying that in order to achieve ascendance as he has, you must learn Galdr.
In fact, one of Odin's names is "Ommi" which means "He who makes the beautiful sound".
For those who have been asking. Grimeorth TTRPG is currently in beta print and will be available for official playtest in the coming month.
Final release will be available this December.
Reject the poz and mediocre nonsense of the videogame industry. Return to traditional gaming.
Shout out to TGO. These look sharp. Also, linen is the fabric mentioned in the Eddas.
I'm gonna pick one up.
Since some of you are new subscribers and unfamiliar with my work here is a quick overview. I am a podcaster and writer focusing mainly on the revival of authentic ancestral Germanic religious tradition. I have been involved in many projects and networks such as Heel Turn, Hrafnvolk Network, MAN, The Revolutionary Conservative and The Norroena Society.
My current production is called THE BOG where we delve into deep theological and historical topics regarding the religion and culture of ancient Europe.

And here's an old video that Mark from Norroena Society did teaching more advanced processes of blót. There's even more beyond this but it's an excellent 202 video. https://youtu.be/lgwSSITMjao

For libations at home I suggest milk. As it's the very first libation performed in the Edda. Urd pours milk upon the roots of Yggdrasil.

Tom does an excellent job in this video teaching a very simple way to perform ritual at home. I have shared this video quite a bit with folks that I've taught.

How do I start practicing Germanic religion?
Well, many find it intimidating given the sheer amount of books, videos and personalities that all say different things. 95% of pagan books and YouTube channels are a bunch of crap. That's why there's gorillions of books about runes and almost nothing about how to pray or advanced philosophy.
It's confusing and hard to navigate at first. But our ancestors were very practical people and our religion in it's authentic form reflects that. Our praxis tends to be very useful because it was mostly practiced by farmers, builders and what we would now call "blue collar". You don't have to be a big brain scholar to have a connection with the Gods.
Here's a few very simple things to work towards when getting started.
- Learn Germanic ethics. What we understand to be virtues and vices. Live by them.
- Practice your Galdr. It requires memorizing a few things in Old Norse. But, it's very easy once you have a few down.
- Learn how to do a simple blót. Once you're in an established clan and one person among you gets properly trained, you can do more elaborate ritual. But in the beginning, learn how to perform a simple one. Never miss blót.
- There is a mountain of source material. The most important two are Voluspa and Havamal in the Poetic Edda. Not everyone has the time to read Saxo, Gronbech, Tacitus, Grimm and the numerous other books. Read and understand those two I mentioned. I suggest Larrington 1st edition translation.
- Buy some blótklæði or "blót clothes". I wear white linen shirt and white linen pants with dress shoes. These are for ritual. Wash yourself before you put them on. And cleanse your mouth with water as well. You must be clean before you speak to the holy Goðín.
Faith to our ancestors wasn't something they took lightly. It wasn't something they only did on Sundays. It was woven into the very fabric of their being. Every act, even the most mundane was a spiritual act. It still is. We just forgot how to do it.
So, to take up this spiritual birthright is no small task. To truly do it takes conviction and devotion. Nothing meaningful is easy or quick. But, you will find that it fits like a glove because this has been here waiting for you. It truly is coming home.
Here's some art submitted by our buddy Don Kent over at American Zarathustra.

Europeans are genetically habituated to digest lactose into adulthood. Because of the LP (Lactase Persistence) allele we have astronomically lower rates of lactose intolerance. That is if you believe in evolution (I kinda don't).
Which is why when they say "most of the world is lactose intolerant" it's a half truth designed to trick you into not consuming dairy which provides necessary vitamin D.
Drink the soy, bigot. It's science.
Most recently my writings have been published in the very well received Epicist Magazine.
