New post on the history of European Poetic Insult Battles "Flyting" by J. A. Coburn on the blog https://wylderhomesproject.life/2021/06/09/the-basics-of-flyting/

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

I can’t even watch. I don’t know what’s more upsetting, the fact that this is happening at all or the fact that there are no mobs hitting the streets over it.

Ancient Komi calendars.

My personal view of ancient pagan Slavs is that they did not make either female goddess or male god a superior. I think both are equally important! How can you make one superior and one inferior and expect balance within the tribe?
