As promised, I'm pleased to announce the launch of: https://fyrgen.com/
This will be the hub where links to my efforts and content can be found. The first weekly podcast episode is being planned and should appear within the next couple of weeks. The website will grow as my productivity grows, to include a link to merchandise fairly soon too.
For those who'd like to (and can afford to) throw a few £ my way, or some crypto, links and addresses for all of those can be found at the above website and anything given is greatly and humbly appreciated. Subscriber content will be at SubscribeStar, Patreon and Substack (with an exclusive 'The Secrets of ALU' document available and more bits and pieces to come), and Ko-fi, BuyMeACoffee and PayPal are there for casual tips/donations.
Thank you to everyone who gave me the nudge I needed to organise this.

Take the time to build real life. Devote yourself to relationship. Share love together. There is no greater feeling than that of growing old with someone.

These are images of various ethnic groups of indigenous white people. I’ve only included some, and not all, because there are just too many to list. The world needs to be reminded that just like there are Native Americans, and other native/indigenous peoples, there are also native Europeans. People of the world were brainwashed to view white people as being associated with Christian western civilization, but that’s a wrong way of identifying white ethnic groups. White ethnic groups are no less indigenous than any other indigenous people around the world. I think this awareness must be put out into the world

In Life & in Death, Honor those We Love
Flateyjarbók records that in times of grief, our forebears hung a mourning banner:
“The men sat drinking as long as they liked that night, and then went to bed ; but after they had left the hall Queen Thyri took down the hangings, and instead put up black and grey cloth until all was covered. She had done this because it was the custom in those days when tidings of grief came to do as she did."
The Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem:
ᛠ Éar is horrible to every knight,
when the corpse quickly begins to cool
and is laid in the bosom of the dark earth.
Prosperity declines, happiness passes away and covenants are broken.
The cycle of birth, life, death, rebirth. In life & in death, honor those we love.

The Yggdrasil Tree as Woden's Steed.
A common view is that the Yggdrasil is an Ash. This may be a very old word play as there are examples of the word 'Ash' being used as a name for horse. The (grand)son of Hengest was called Oeric. He used the noscript Oisc which was the same as Aesc, and means Ash. The names Hengest and Horsa (Stallion and Horse) were more likely war-noscripts and not real names, and it seems that Oeric (Ash) continued this tradition. The Horse gods of the Baltic lands are viewed as twins called the Ašvieniai, in Aryan-Hindu lore they are called the Ashwins. Both names derive from the word Ashva which means Horse. The word Ashva also cognates with the Germanic word Ehwaz (horse).
To some folk, the World Tree is seen as the Yew, however this can still means 'Horse'. The Anglo-Saxon word for horse was Eoh, whilst Ēoh meant Yew. Further to this the word 'yggia' comes from the root *igwja which means Yew-Tree. So it would seem regardless of whether the tree is an Ash or Yew - both can mean Horse.

Before everything in our society became inversed, anti-nature and anti-life, we used to have an inherent knowledge of the importance of natural order. This inherent knowledge and understanding would manifest itself in various ways.
During the medieval era, jousting tournaments were organized as entertainment and for knights to prove their might and valor. The winner would be honored with material prizes and glory. It was also customary for the most beautiful lady to reward the winner with a kiss. Sometimes the champion would even win the princess’ hand in marriage.
The winner of the tournament, thus having established himself as the alpha male would get the praise and approval of the highborn female beauty. In the same way nature singles out the strongest for survival, women are the living embodiment of natural selection. Males seek more than anything to prove themselves worthy to pass on their genes. The path of greatness and glory are the highest purpose of man, and only a handful are up to the challenge.

The "Niederdeutsche Hallenhaus" is the traditional farmhouse in much of northern Germany.
Until the end of the 19th century it was built in the traditional style.
The use as a residential and stable building and the look are the same as the houses of the Germans 2000 years ago.

The Decline of Tréow
The Germanic folk friendship structure had a code of brotherhood that bonded men & their leaders that ensured tréow on the battlefield
The Anglo-Saxon relationship between ruler and warrior is one of honor, friendship, & respect. Tréow requires the man swear an oath to defend his Lord to the death, while the lord provides him with protection, food, wealth, & weapons. Anglo-Saxon culture looked very poorly upon a person going against their own family (with oath-kin being as strong as blood-kin)
Béowulf demonstrates how Tréow began to die out in the Anglo-Saxon period. At the end of the poem, only Wigláf follows Béowulf into battle with the dragon. When Béowulf goes into various battles, there is a progression of the tréow dying out with the behavior of the warriors: 1. the warriors sleeping, 2. they stand on the bank waiting, and finally, 3. only Wigláf goes with him in the end.

Live United or Die Divided?
Today’s Heathendom is rife with division, yet we work diligently to learn of our old beliefs to reconstruct our old religion. There’s a desire to reach out with the aim of networking, in the hopes of meeting up in real life to build relationships. Groups, organizations, accords, & platforms are set up to bring us together. We seek a collective unity, whilst priding ourselves on our being individuals & embracing diversity of thought; where local variances are accepted & tolerated because we recognize that we’re all Heathens, walking the same direction & sharing the same overall goals.
As true as these words are, many of our actions contradict & taint Heathenship. Too often, we cannot escape hyper-individualism & view others with suspicion. He has to have an agenda! His endeavor is competition to my organization! Those folks are wrong, I must debate them & show them the truth! He doesn’t practice my cultural expression, so I must shadow ban him! He research must be plagiarized! Surely he’s lying! Or at least ignorantly mistaken! They’re gatekeepers! Evil Nazis! Degenerate Universalists! He doesn’t follow my leaders! He must just be a contrarian! A rebel! They’re LARPers! Who does he think he is being different! I can’t work with him - he has to work with me!
The time is long overdue for us to unite as a strong collective Heathen body. In staying divided, we weaken ourselves; thus, opening ourselves up for attack. Our folk have long suffered the ill-effects of the divide & conquer techniques inflicted upon us. We need to learn to work together, let go of the suspicion, mistrust, & haughtiness & work together to save our folk. The end of the current cycle is nigh & we stand at a crossroads.
Which way Heathen man?
I speak these words not as a condemnation, but as an honest critique of our present state. We, as Heathen folk, have so much good, yet we have still have so much holding us back. I urge you to take off the blinders, gather your wits, delve into deep introspection, & change yourself. I am here to help you & likewise, I accept your help in removing my blinders. These words rest within the truest sense of honesty & truth, with humble intentions, yet with fierce strength & determination, for we are not a weak folk.
Hail our forebears! Hail our folk! Hail the doers! Hail our gods! Faraþ ġesunde.
