‘In that moment, like a tidal wave that covers the land and tears apart everything in its path, all knowledge was revealed to Finn.
He heard the muttering of the trees and the songs of the stars. He felt the beating wings of every bird in the sky. The great beasts of the seabed gazed into his eyes; sun-fire burned in his blood.
He knew every mind’s desire, every heart’s secret. He witnessed the birth and death of gods.’
- From The Salmon of Wisdom

It was thought that classes could be taught in forests so that students would benefit physically and mentally from clean air and sunlight.
Personally, I would get rid of the wall and desks. And the floorboards. And the chalk.
Feel the forest beneath your feet, take in the beauty and sounds of a true master at work… Mother Nature.

Honor and Blood
The measure of worth in a person and their folk is deemed Honor.
It comes from within and is shown by nobility in word and deed. To be honorable is to be just and virtuous; even more, it is to value these characteristics in oneself, one’s tribe and kin.
We measure how a person remains honorable to gauge their worth, and how our folk values a person. People who do not value honor and the tribe have no real worth because they themselves are dishonorable.
Our shared biospirit renders our people honorable as a core principle, but we must live according to its pull to bring that honor to fullness.
Foreign creeds and values (multiculturalism, miscegenation and the like) suppresses the natural nobility that is passed down to us from our ancestors. In that way, honor is being true to our people, our gods and ourselves.

To be truly honorable, we must heed the voice of our ancestors and embrace the way of our people.
In ethnic faith.. our way of life, and our gods are bestowed and inherited as gifts from our forebears. This inheritance and endowment is not to be cast aside or squandered on other people or tribes, but used for the benefit of those within our shared biospirit.
Our way is not defined by hating other people or tribes, but neither is it a way of blind acceptance or universalism. Our way arose organically along with our people to sustain us spiritually, socially and mentally, for we share the blood of our ancestors and of the gods.

We should celebrate our heritage and be proud of the many achievements of all our ancestors, regardless of where they may come from, all the while staying true to our own lineage.
Knowing this, we are obligated to bring strength to our tribe, our family, and our ways so that our birthright passes more vigorous to those who come after us.
This is the path of ethnic faith.
This is the way.

In quite a few regions of Central and Western Europe, during the colder months leading up to Yule, one should be mindful to take extra precautions with ensuring the home is spic and span.
A Schnabelperchten throng may venture your way, looking for untidy homes.
In some areas of the continent, celebrants dressed as Schnabelperchten (perchta) stop by to inspect your house to make sure its clean and tidy
Schnabelperchten come to the homes of families to either reward those who were diligent and hardworking, or to punish for laziness.
The reward is silver coins in shoes or buckets of hardworking people, and the punishment is to cut open the belly of a lazy person with the help of their huge scissors and stuff them with straw and stones.
Be warned!
