I pulled this from Facebook. A beautiful Russian traditional house in the village Klyshyno near Moscow city. Our ancestors paid attention to the beauty in architecture, both inside and out. Do you see all of the intricate detail? They did this type of artistic decor to all houses everywhere in Europe, and in other locations that were home of Indo-European people

Walking in the park i enjoy the springseason🙂. All the flora grows like there is no tomorrow and the shade of the trees feels nice. There are many poppyflowers now. The poppy is a great offering for Hel, the Goddess of the Realm of the Death. Hel has very much a 'winterenergy' but the poppy can be picked in the spring/summer!? Life and death cannot be seperated, the Realm of the Death and our world of the living are not as seperated as people often think. The symbol on the yellow bead is called: The 'rune of the bowl' and is Hella's rune. It is not a historic rune but here in the Netherlands and Flanders there is a number of people working with this rune

The poppy is not only associated with the goddess Hel. Dutch researcher Hondius-Crone written that the poppy was also depicted on Nehalennia altars. Nehalennia also has a connection with the Underworld. In ancient Crete goddesses were also sometimes depicted with poppy on their crown (the bulbs not the flower).

We live in strange times, folks. It seems to me that an era is ending and what will follow? This present day postmodern way of 'thinking', in which everything is relative and nothing have any value, can't be our future. In this video Dirkje speaks to her young pagan, heathen and witch-sisters. As always Dirkje is down to earth and so is her advice for her younger sisters. This is a positive message about fearlessness and going back to yourself...not to get dragged away by the craziness of our present era. Dirkje also warns against the hatred for men that is spread by modernday feminism. The idea that you must feel guilty for who you are and for your history is clearly rejected by the Tribe of the Fox. Think for yourself and connect with your ancestors, naturespirits and deities folks🙂. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ic94G6l8AiU

A message for young witches and pagan women
These days are a little bit exciting, there is a lot of fear and a lot is going on.
Ofcouse you decide how you want to live your life, regardless of everything you hear in the media.
But being a witch and a pagan woman, it is good to consider things and use…

R1a Density: Europe & South Asia
For clarity, and to counter misinformation on this topic, the oldest example of R1a found in South Asia is dated to approx. 1000 BCE. The oldest example in Central Asia has been dated to 2100 BCE. However, much, much older examples have been found in Europe, such as Penchanitsa, Russia (10000 BCE); Vasil'evka, Ukraine (8800 BCE); and Karelia (6800 BCE).
More information → Eurogenes: R1a
The dating of samples mentioned above demonstrates that R1a in S. Asia is descended from ancient European examples. Coupled with linguistic evidence and genomic data, and basically all academic research on the topic to date, this provides strong support for the migration of R1a carriers into India from N. Europe, instead of an indigenous mutation.

What the people say here absolutely resonates with me. I see what they see in the natural world, and by natural world I mean the wild. I mean earth in her natural, organic state. I understand these people, because I too have a deep respect and appreciation for organic nature and life. Like them I appreciate every plant, every living creature. I marvel at the beautiful colors, patters, and intricate details in nature. Like them I feel honored and privileged to be alive on this majestic planet. People like them truly deserve to be here on earth, because they love every blade of grass and drop of water. They care about this planet and life on this planet. They understand the sacredness of it all

INSPIRED BY NATURE - The World Is Incomprehensibly Beautiful

The Komi (Komi: комияс) or Komi-Zyryans (Zyryans), are a Permian (Finno-Ugric) ethnic group whose homeland is in the north-east of European Russia around the basins of the Vychegda, Pechora and Kama rivers. They mostly live in the Komi Republic, Perm Krai, Murmansk Oblast, Khanty–Mansi Autonomous Okrug, and Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug in the Russian Federation.
Growing your own food naturally is a spiritual practice. Our ancestors understood this, and that’s why their native ethnic faith was nature-based. Nature, and agriculture was at the centre of their spirituality. That, and the procreation of life. They placed equal importance on fertility of the people, animals and the land.

Most gardeners will tell you that digging in the dirt makes them happy, some even call it therapeutic. This small group of gardeners from Telferton Allotment in Edinburgh, see their hobby as the perfect antidote to the modern world, a way of reclaiming some…
This is just the beginning. 100 years from now kids in schools will be taught a completely different history on Tudor dynasty from the one we’ve been taught. I don’t understand why this black actress even agreed to take this role. Has she no pride at all posing as Anne Boleyn? These people are truly loosing their mind
