Urglaawe, Pennsylvania Dutch Heathenry
In America we have our own branches of Heathenry such as Urglaawe, which spawns from the blatantly Pagan folkloric traditions of the Pennsylvania Dutch, while there is some bleed over with the Eddic tradition the main focus is on German gods such as Perchta, Ewicher Yeeger, Eckhart, Lollus, Zisa, King Frost, and especially Mother Holle who is the patron deity of all Pennsylvania Dutch, and is credited with guiding them to America to escape oppression and watching over them from the Hexenkopf mountain nearby. She is directly tied into many holy days such as Grundsaudag and Allelieweziel and many folktales, many of her and the other gods stories are tied to the American land and incorporate many German and American customs including Steins, Hex Signs, Distlefinks, and more. As Holle is the leader and divine patron of this German-American tribe, her sickle is the symbol they wear in contrast to the Mjolnir typically worn by modern Norse & Germanic Heathens.

The statement , "White/European christian", is describing two separate things. Race and religion. Whereas an Ethnically Spiritual White/European is not two separate things, they are one in the same. Nobody but Whites/Europeans can be Ethnic Spiritual Europeans. Any race can be christian.

Beautiful landscape in the Netherlands. Here you imagine yourself in ancient times, where you never know whether you will meet your ancestors or nature spirits from ancient folklore.

Just a fun, albeit random painting I did over the weekend. Trying to paint as much as I can, as quickly as I can, with reasonable results. Enjoy!

Something on King George day.
King George is a legend from the fight of good vs evil and known for slaying the dragon. The flag of old England was the Dragon. King George was a christian. Many feel that the slaying of the dragon represents the slaying of old Spiritual England and the triumph of chritianity. How ironic for the pro English to celebrate this day when it's not a celebration of the English, but a celebration of the death of the Ethnic Spiritual England
It's a testament to the brain washing and the death of their spirit that people can walk on Celtic, Germanic, and Nordic grounds and think that the god of these lands is jesus and not the Gods of their ancestors.

The use of drums in European Paganism
There are pagans who question the use of drums in northwestern Europe. Understandable because grave finds of drums are rare, but do occur. I found a description from an antique book by Johannes G. Scheffer from 1682 about the Sami in Sweden. He describes a trance journey through a drum.
I've tried to translate from the medieval language Old Dutch to English. He writes as follows:
Their arts by means of gods and spirits, or to practice sorcery. Or to get to know something. This is done by a 'kannus', a kind of drum. This must be made of birch wood with a skin spanned. Characters are painted on this, with alder bark paint. They tapped it with a finger sized hammer. A set of rings had been placed that jumped to the right or left. The first promised happiness, the other misfortune.
After the drumming, the sorcerer falls to the floor as if he were dead, for a short or long time. After he has been back, they asked him questions. (about the realm I suppose)
