Iduna, Iðunn

This apple is not forbidden,
if magic needs a spark,
because you are there,
when the blossom blooms.
You are there
when there is renewal,
for the young
and for the old.
Vital life, vital force,
golden eternity.

Lieve groet, Dirkje

"Tacitus noted in the 1st century that Germanic Celtic priests considered horses to understand the will of the gods more clearly than man and so could reveal divine secrets. The legendary horse was available for travel to other realms (e.g. the horse of Mannan MacLir could travel over land and water and between realms with equal ease)." (2)
“Horses are vehicles of journeying between worlds and hence communication with the dead." (1)
“Remember the cats, ravens, and other familiar spirits who are often the companions of witches in European folktales? These are fylgjur (pronounced “FILG-yur”) in the plural and fylgja (pronounced “FILG-ya”) in the singular. The fylgja is generally perceived in an animal form by those with second sight, although human fylgjur aren’t unheard-of. It’s an attendant spirit whose well-being is intimately tied to that of its owner – for example, if the fylgja dies, its owner dies, too. Its character and form are closely connected to the character of its owner; a person of noble birth might have a bear fylgja, a savage and violent person, a wolf, or a gluttonous person, a pig. In a sense, this helping spirit can be seen as the totem of a single person rather than of a group.
Fylgja literally translates as 'follower' but, as often as not, it’s depicted as traveling ahead of its owner, arriving at the intended destination before its owner or appearing in the dreams of someone who will meet the owner the following day. Intriguingly, the term is also applied to the afterbirth,but the connection is mysterious and unclear." (3)
"There are also hints that animals could be integral to the nature of the social person during life, and were thus particularly important at the time of death. Horses and other domestic animals could have been regarded as guardians, external souls of individuals and shaman's familiars. The term 'fylgja' found in Scandanavian tradition relates the concept that animals could be the fetches or 'souls' of individuals, equivalent to animal guardians. They are often seen in dreams and omens, and could include a wide variety of animals depending upon the personality of the deceased." (1)
"These ideas are taken to extremes with the idea that individuals could shape-shift into an animal form that represents an extension of the social person. Thus the bear heros of Scandinavian tradition not only have the attributes of bears, but in some stories can go into a trance in order to emerge in their bear form to fight in battle." (1)

I’d rather prefer old roads, old dogs, old folks, and old ways to this sped-up world

Injustice cries the slave, as he rattles his chains a little louder.

With every demand, his chains get tighter.

With every plea, his case weaker.

His Suffering, his consent.

Accepting Yeshua into your heart is like getting a spiritual vaccine jab, literal poison. The “folk pill” is the metaphysical healthy natural remedy we need. Embracing what is natural, the blood genetic connection to our gods down though our ancestral lineages in our own holy fatherlands is what will strengthen you and make you immune to the abrahamic psycho programming.

In European Folklore the Three Fates, The Norns, and other similar trios are often conflated in writings. It is mentioned that "Three Sisters" or "Fates" are often worshipped by women around the second Millenia. Taking a high level of priority especially during childbirth when a spindle and other equipment would be set out so that they could arrive and hopefully spin a good life for the newborn. Or having the table set for three extra seats. While the Three Sisters were often demonized as Witches or The Devil, another common result of their worship was the "Three Mary's" Present across much of European Christendom. In England during the middle ages it was said that "Christ is Mighty, But Wyrd is Mightier" it is unclear if this refers to the Web of Wyrd or if a Norn with this name is who was being mentioned. The Three Sisters and this "Wyrd" would eventually come to be known as "The Weird Sisters" in folklore and in MacBeth by Shakespeare, where they are depicted as unfathomably ancient and powerful.-TLK

Fresh breeze off the norwegian coast(1863) art by Hans gude

I went for a walk in the woods today.. There was no pandemic, no fear, no agendas, no lies, no guilt or regret, no fighting, none of that.. Just nature everywhere, going about it's way. The real world is still out there. It's all around us. Don't forget that.

Just wondering when these "christian warriors" are going to do something. They hold the numbers. By rights they should win if they stand.. But instead they await in faith for the return of their lord.

Faith awaiting the return of your lord is a faith you hold as you stand by and watch your people be destroyed. Were it not for that faith, a righteous man would make a stand for his people. No, what you hold is not faith, but cowardice. Faith is something you ride headlong into battle with.

You can be the people that live in fear of what people think about you and their reaction to your words and actions.... ....or you can be the people whose words and actions are feared by others. The choice is yours. Not everything is a binary, but this is. There is a power imbalance in every relationship. There is always an alpha and a beta. Dominant and dominated. Unbelievable, the levels of feminine thinking at work inside the minds of Western men. Servile and weak, eager to please the dominant groups engineering their extermination. Eager to be dominated. They mask their inferior posture as “going along to get along” every step of the way to annihilation, feeding their compulsive feminine need for approval. Relinquishing their duty as men for those last few drops of dopamine before they slip away into nothingness.
