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🦊!

One of the crewmembers from U-209 wrote a shocking letter to his friend. Whether you believe this really was an authentic letter, or that this letter states the truth about the hollow earth, you have to at least admit that this is fascinating.

I want to re-share an old post of mine. A different perspective through which to view the Slavic mythological baba Yaga
