In European tradition, especially under the influence of Alchemy we have the 4 core elements of Water (Liquid), Earth (Solid), Fire (Energy), and Air (Gas). These 4 core elements are also symbolized by an assigned spirit these include Undine for Water, Gnome for Earth, Salamander for Fire, and Sylph for Air. Along with these 4 there is the fifth element known as Aether which has many varied qualities and interpretations, it is derived from the old god Aether who represented the upper air that the gods breathed. Though the concept has been brought forth by numerous people including Tesla. Personally similar to how the 4 core elements correspond to stages of matter, Aether could be seen as potential, spirit, or if you want to go mundane dark matter.-TLK

Navia, Nabia
Statue of Navia in Galicia
Navia River in Asturias
She is a nymph goddess with versatility around rivers, the abundant forests of the valleys, and the fallen. Similar to Artemis of the Greco-Roman religion.
The core of her cult seems to be found at Lusitanian territory in north-central Portugal but has also extended as far north as Galicia, Asturias and western Leon.
To honor Navia, warriors would offer their old swords and shields at riverbeds. Navia was paired with Jupiter by the Romans as what can be seen by epithets on inscriptions left behind in western Hispania. The water flows of her river were believed to represent a passage to the afterlife.

Ojkanje, or "Cyrillic singing" could possibly have origins from wolf howls in the Baltic region. It has seemingly long-standing traditional ties to wolf cults in the area, and if done in a group setting, it has the same unity as the howling of a wolf pack. https://youtu.be/fjm9QXUVYLA

A tale well told
Just finished reading “Mother Hulda” from Grimm’s fairytales to my children, and if there was a wiser way to spend my time this year, I don’t know what it is.
What a wonderful family experience we had in hearing about a beloved Germanic
goddess, and the kids had so many questions to ask after the book was closed.
The power of a well told tale should not be underestimated, undervalued or lost to the onward march of time.
Storytelling is one of the most ancient art forms, yet it is still a vital part of our everyday lives and many of our people think that the gift of storytelling belongs only to writers, shamans, and the elderly, but in truth, we are all storytellers
from cradle to grave.
Our stories sustain us, they enliven us, connect us to our gods and our people through the lore, both folk and myth.
“Stories have to be told or they die, and when they die, we can’t remember who we are or why we’re here.”
- Sue Monk Kidd

Illustration of Abaris, the Hyperborean.
“Neither by ship nor on foot would you find the marvellous road to the assembly of the Hyperboreans.
Never the Muse is absent from their ways:
lyres clash and flutes cry and everywhere maiden choruses whirling.
Neither disease nor bitter old age is mixed in their sacred blood;
far from labor and battle they live.”
– Pindar, Tenth Pythian Ode.

Marzanna is a Mother Goddess and Death goddess of the Polish people, she is often equated to Morena from the Eastern Slavs. In Polish folklore she is the Grim Reaper and bringer of plagues, having beautiful Emerald eyes and raven hair. Her hall in the underworld is a Mirror Palace and the intersection of the two rivers, through these mirrors she can help guide the souls of the dead through the realms, both to Nav a land of rest, or to visit those in the realm of the living. She does not rule Nav though at times she is considered a consort of Veles or Chernobog, though in other tales she was the consort or wife of a Sun god such as Yarillo or Dahzbog, when he was unfaithful she trapped him in her mirrors.-TLK
Helskór (“Hel-Shoes”)
In Norse tradition, helskór is footwear made to assist the deceased in their journey to Helheim, and the many challenges that lay ahead.
In their trek, they would have had to traverse a 2 mile wide heath that is closely packed with tall coarse grass and sharp thorny shrubs.
Once through the heath, the unjust in life would find themselves before a fast moving river filled with sharp, rustling weapons that belonged to men who died in battle.
The amount of wounding and pain they incurred was believed to correlate to the amount of misdeeds they committed while alive.
If a just, honorable person came before the river, they would be provided with two boards to stand on to float across.
“And when they had heaped up the howe, and were going to lay the body in it, Thorgrim the priest goes up to Gisli, and says, “’Tis the custom, brother-in-law, to bind the hellshoe on men, so that they may walk on them to Valhalla, and I will now do that by Vestein.”
