Nordic folk + the shamanic song traditions of Ásaland — where the Norse and the steppe peoples were one. The old gods are watching. 🔥 [email protected]
In the shadows of bygone times, masks were worn not just for battle but to transcend—to become more than man. Hidden behind cold, faceless iron, wearers connected with gods, ancestors, and the immortal heroes who still whisper through the winds.
But What forces do they invoke?
Swedish Midsummer, the grandest of all celebrations, hath roots deep in the soil of ancient heathen traditions. Yea, it is more beloved than even Yule, for it harkens back to times long past when the solstice sun reigned supreme, marking the longest day of the year.
@Sagnamadr Agreed! There is a little-known story of a boy from the sagas Konungahellu. The gist of it: A small group of ships set out from Gautelfr to Iceland. All but one sank in a storm. One important person, Jon, survived; without him, the Eddas would probably not exist. Will share more.
Í skógi hljóð, viðar vaka,
Andar gamlir, grænir taka.
Rótum rísa, regin hlýða,
Hǫrgr lifir, logn í kvíða.
(In the quiet forest, the woods awake,
Ancient spirits, in green they partake.
Roots arise, to gods they heed,
The altar lives, in stillness freed.)
Music news cometh soon.

Few are those who remember Sigrblót was not just a celebration of the changing seasons but also of the victory of the Aesir over the Jotnar or giants.
Sigrblót means “victory sacrifice” and pays tribute to the triumphs of the Old Gods. #Easter2023

In the shadows of the night
I met a man of great might
His one eye pierced through the darkness
He spoke to me of great importance
His words were wise, his presence grand
I knew at once I was in his hand
He shared with me secrets past
And told me tales that would forever last
The winter solstice today marks the shortest day and longest night of the year. It is a time of transition, as the sun begins its journey back toward the northern hemisphere.
To celebrate, a new single ‘Hróðvitnir: Solstice Solasvartr’ has been released: https://t.co/uzX9s1U2Cf

What does “bon” in bonfire mean, and where does it come from? It is from Middle English and means bone, and has little to do with the French language.
