Bride is a Scottish Goddess associated with life and the wife of the Summer King Angus. She is diametrically opposed to Beira the Queen of Winter who attempted to keep her weak and servile, however Beira's impossible tasks that she gave Bride were conquered one by one by Bride with the help of Father Winter. As Bride and Angus became husband and wife, the touch and power of Bride and Angus banished Beira as the Queen of Winter and brought Spring across the land. -TLK

If you live in a very rural area you can see reality all around you. Even if you live in a town you can see it. You can see the birds and the squirrels and the insects going about their day. You can see the trees dropping their seeds. Nothing has changed in thousands and thousands of years. It's all as it has been and was meant to be. Only we have changed. The world has not modernized, only we have. We live in a system that has become a monstrosity and has enslaved us. But it's just an illusion. We can let go and live a far more natural life. There was a time where we were already doing it. It's all open ended and up to us. We're living in an illusion. Remember that.

"With passing time, its passage soon or late,
My bolts of lightning on the foe will rain,
On all who seek as slaves my people's fate
And strive to crush our spirits for their gain.-
But when the springtime comes with climate fair,
To Latvia's folk sweet showers I will send,
By day will give them clean refreshing air,
And to the darkness sparks of light will lend."
"To them in nature I will stay close by;
My voice of thunder in the sky will ring.
Of Perkons strong the name will never die;
The Latvian folk will ever of it sing.
I wish here now you other gods, apace,
Will follow close upon my guiding will,
And each one swear, at proper time and place,
For humankind a promise to fulfil."

A good way to start the day is to walk or sit in nature. The trees provide shade and preserve the moist in the soil. The sound of the birds is so much nicer than human made sounds. Such a nice energy🙂

Valkyrie are often depicted as beautiful and almost merciful warrior maidens, in the modern day they are even paired with Pegasus like horses from Greek Mythology. However, while the feminine psychopomp and death god are extremely prevalent and important throughout Europe, their is a darker and more gruesome nature to the Valkyrie's ability. Before a great battle "The Choosers of the Slain" would go to the battle and begin working a loom of entrails from the future battlefield, using heads as shuttlecocks, and using blades and other weapons in order to make the decisions as to who will live and who will die. The Valkyries are hard to pin down nowadays as some are goddesses, others are woman, while in other forms they are a class of spirit or god all their own like the Nornir.-TLK
