How to grow garlic

There are hardneck and softneck varieties of garlic, find what works best in your planting zone. Plant in the fall, just before the ground freezes. Cover with leaves. In very early spring carefully rake leaves off as soon as they thaw and have dried out a bit.

Garlic will grow through the summer. Water if there is a dry spell. By late summer or early fall they need to be harvested when the plant is 2/3rds brown. If you let the garlic completely dry before harvest the cloves start to separate and they spoil easier.

Dry bulbs in a shaded spot with good air circulation. Store hanging in mesh bags, or braided together, out of direct sunlight. Keep enough of the bulbs to break into cloves for fall planting.

Go through the bulbs occasionally and throw out any that have gone bad or are starting to discolor; which won't be many. Never eat any discolored garlic.

Plant cloves pointy end up. It is obvious which end is up if you are breaking them off of a bulb.

The Bear & The Maiden Fair

One of the oldest and most widespread elements of Hyperborean faith is the Bear cult. While this can often be traced to a bear mother progenitor there is also a male Bear god, sometimes depicted as a Hairy Wildman.
Found in Fairy Tales, Legends, Myths, and even Wilder Mann customs, the marriage of the Maiden Fertility goddess and the Bear is seen across our lands. The Bear Tsar in Slavia is often seen trying to find a young bride, in the tales of White Bear King Valemon & Snow White and Rose Red where Earth's fertility is connected to the marriage of the Bear and the Maiden Fair. In both the entrance to the Otherworld or the Underworld is implied much as when a bear will go hibernate only to emerge when life returns.

Through these ancient times to modern day this connection echoes, until recently the belief bears would kidnap women and sire Half Bear Supermen was widespread, while women were believed to be drawn to the most bearlike of men.-TLK

Donar or Thor is a well known god of thunder. He is also a deity of balance and lifeforce. But how about Hludana? She is the female counterpart of Donar when it comes to balance. Almost like yin and yang to make a compasrison. Perhaps it comes as a surprise that there is another god who is associated with thunder, lighting and lifegiving energy? Who? Farbauti is his name. It was not possible to find an image for this post that is acurate. Farbauti is a jotnar from the Ironwood and appeared as a massive column of orange fire when journeying to Him. Farbauti is a very ancient deity and i noticed He communicated with imagery instead of words. The Tribe of the Fox loves going beyond just having bookknowledge and therefore we search for first hand knowledge. We do this by trancejourneying using oldskool and newskool ways. The Tribe of the Fox started experimenting with giving heathen and non heathen folks first hand experience of the ancestors and deities. Succesfully🙂! Let's bring back the old knowledge🦊!
