Part of our awakening and survival is dependent on our re-tribalization. That is part organizational but it's also part lifestyle. We need think tribally in terms of kin-based in-groups (ethno-centrism). But we also need to think like tribal people in terms of ethno-spiritualism, meaning reviving shamanic animism once again.
Here's an article on our own traditional tribal clothing with supernatural protection woven into the garments via homespun embroidery.

These people give you a bit more information on Slavic pagan god Veles, besides just the typical mainstream characteristics and traits that are associated with this God, which are; God of the underworld, God of nature, God of cattle, etc...
I do appreciate that they took out the time to provide the public with a little bit of additional information on this God, but, I suspect that there is still a lot more information hidden. Out of all of the gods of my pagan Slavic ancestors, Veles is the one who I resonate with the most

Homemade carrot cake with chocolate buttercream inside, and cream cheese frosting outside.
The midnight blue tablecloth for my party dinner table may seem tacky, but midnight blue is one of the two of my favorite colors. The second one is forest green. Also it’s a new year’s celebration, and plus my local stores ran out of party decorations, since I do everything at the last minute
I don’t eat meat except for fish, shrimp, and crab, but I prepared some roasted chickens, and honey and brown sugar glazed ham for the guests
For me and my two daughters I prepared pan seared salmon. I hope you all had a great holiday season, and may this year be abundant, successful, full of happiness for all of us

This right here is why merchants and bankers promote Christianity, Islam, Judaism, communism, and atheism, and ALL of them persecute indigenous paganism.
"There are practically no Mari businessmen, points out Tanakov, as the main local business is felling timber. “A Mari can’t do this - his conscience won’t allow him - because a tree contains a soul in a transitional process of evolution. If you have felled a tree, you have destroyed a living being.” Selling spring water is also out. “Water is one of the hypostases of Yumo, so that means selling God.” Should traditional values such as these be promoted among the Mari, he muses, the state authorities would lose their ability to control the populace. “Wealth would no longer be an instrument of power.”

Soviet anti-religion has returned, claim Europe's last surviving pagans
In their remote forest republic 400 miles east of the Moscow, the pagan Mari people are once again being harassed by the authorities. While the administrative lever used today is different — charges of “extremism” — their approach is more than reminiscent…
