The world may tell you that strength is not necessary to become a man, but I tell you that is a lie.
Sources? Look to wildlife.
The alpha does not worry about the fledgling who yelps in jealousy of position, for the alpha welcomes the challenge and thrives when opposed.
Masculine men hold other men in high regard who are efficient at protecting the tribe, because more capable men means opportunity for the clan to thrive and grow.
Without strength, masculinity becomes hollow and empty, much like the soul it is supposed to inhabit.
It ceases to be.

The níðing is a despicable thing worthy of contempt and honor is not owed to the honorless.

I’d like to comment on the Frithstead’s post above. Whilst it would be immoral to carry out such acts against your own kith and kin – it wasn’t always looked upon as wrong to steal from your enemy. In fact to the Germanic Männerbündes, stealing was a given right. This law was called the Stehlrecht or the Raubrecht – the sacred Right to Steal, and would have manifested in cattle and slave raids or seizing the control of neighbouring land for example. Many Icelandic names even included the compound þjófr meaning thief – but these weren’t common criminals, but Warriors! The Trollhättan II bracteate also includes the runic innoscription ᛗᚨᚱᛁᚦᛖᚢᛒᚨᛉ meaning sea-thief or glorious-thief.

Was Bældæġ worshiped at the start of summer, alongside the goddess Éastre?What came to be known as the Anglo-Saxons were a blend of Angles, Saxons, and Jutes, among others, who came from their own Germanic homelands to settle Britannia. And, in their settling, they gave shape to sundry kingdoms across the land. It may be then that the Saxons, be they Saxons of Wessex or Westphalia, began summer with the worship of Bældæġ whereas the Angles of Northumbria, the land in which Béda was born and wrote, marked summer’s start by faining Éastre, the goddess of the dawn.
That Bældæg is found in the kingly line of Bernicia in that Anglian kingdom or, if not a settlement of Saxon folk, the therewithness of a Saxon kingly line. Yet whilst Bernicia became half of Northumbria, the other half came from the Anglian kingdom of Deira. And in the Deiran kingly line, Bældæg is nowhere found.

I believe one of the barriers to people exploring paganism is the lack of certainty over when and how to honour the holy days. Disagreement over exact days will continue, so I would assure you all that it's more important to hold rites at all, and with the right spirit, than to do so on the 'correct' day and in the 'correct' manner. Rigidity and fear of imperfect method deter would-be pagans.
For my last birthday my friend Adam sent me a copy of the book 'To Hold the Holytides' by Þórbeorht Ealdorblótere. It has already become my personal go-to reference for when to perform the seasonal rites, as it draws upon comprehensive historical sources.
I thought I'd share with you all that this book concludes that Ēostre is to be celebrated at the 'Pink Moon' (April full moon), which is tonight. As such, my family will welcome Ēostre's dawn sun tomorrow morning by performing a simple blót, and eating pancakes and homemade sourdough hot cross buns (which my daughters decorated themselves with crosses and runes).

Having spent quite some time overseas, I observed several noticeable cultural differences in the countries I visited in comparison to our own in the US.
1. People live to 90+, ride bicycles, and run marathons in some countries.
(Staying active prolongs life expectancy.)
2. Fruit and vegetables going bad after several days, not weeks.
(Homegrown and natural grown should be our model for health and wellness.)
3. Families living together, with the elderly staying until passing from this life, children not leaving in search of greener pastures and/or being kicked out at 18.
(We Hyperboreans used to have large households (7+ children) up until the prohibition era. It is only in the modern era that they are seen as a hindrance and burden.)

The last point is especially heartbreaking, and we can get back to that familial way of life with time.
It is also a key area why we are largely fragmented as a people.
I am trying my utter most to get back to that which we had.
Large families which foster healthy homogeneous community leads to strong society because of the shared biospirit within.
I have told my children that they are always welcome in my household anytime and hope they stay until my passing.
All I ask is that they be part of it and contribute to our well-being to the best of their ability.
My life’s mission is to leave them better set up for success, more self-reliant and self-sufficient than I.
I encourage everyone reading to strive for the same.
Families that stay together… STAY together.

So much misinformation is spread online every Spring concerning the goddess Easter. Some people deny she was ever a goddess at all which is false, while others falsely attribute many aspects of the Christian Easter festival, such as eggs and bunnies, to the original pagan festival, even though there is no evidence for this. I get really fed up with seeing this each year so I condensed all the ACTUAL FACTS about the Anglo-Saxon goddess and her Indo-European cognates in one video for you to share at will when necessary.

Easter was a pagan goddess
Easter was originally the name of a pagan Anglo-Saxon goddess. This video tells you all there is to know about her and also looks at other goddesses around Europe and Asia to whom she is related!
