Archetypal characteristics of Thunar are preserved in the Grimm fairy tale ‘Strong Hans’. A youth with super-human strength fashions an iron club that he bludgeons his enemies with. His adventures, similar to that of Siegfried in the Nibelung, lead him to a cunning dwarf he must outsmart and rescue a princess held hostage in his lair. Guided by natural spirits, he uses the dwarf’s magic ring to escape the cave. Hans also meets two giants of similar might named Fir-twister and Rock-splitter whom he also slays after they betray him. Jacob Grimm relates this tale with the Edda poem Hymiskviða in which Thor sets out on a quest to find a cauldron and he wears it on his head. Strong Hans’ strength is so impressive that his frightened employer sends him away on errands to keep him busy. He takes a church bell and wears it as a cap. Other variants of the tale include that Hans gained his great strength from the nourishment of his mothers milk or that of a female animal, and even giant’s milk in some versions.

Folk would fashion rods out of hazelnut, birch, mistletoe, and many other plants for ritual purposes like fertility rites, cleansing the home, or warding against harm. Mistletoe was called Donnerbesen meaning “Thunder’s Broom” (and the church later changed this to teufelbesen ‘devil’s broom’). Grimm also states that another kenning for donnerbesen or donnerkraut was alpruthe (elf-rod) and the word alpgeschoss (elf-shot) was a kenning for the thunderbolt, showing a close relationship between the Gods and elves. At Yule, Father Christmas the jolly old elf, makes his visit riding a goat and sometimes he or one of St. Nicholas’ pagan “helpers” Ruprecht or Belsnickel carries a ‘life rod’ all similar in resemblance to Strong Hans or The Mighty Thunderer and his sacred weapon.

Become the strongman! Thunder’s spirit stir within our people!

Dirkje and me visited an ancient circulair rampart and a lake called the Uddelermeer. Both sites are loaded with ancestral history and are closely connected with the deity Donar/Thor. The Tribe of the Fox made some nice footage there and we speak about Donar/Thor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLQQDjlFpgM

I care for animals, and treat them with kindness and respect always. I love animals more than most modern day humans. I’m against those who mistreat, or abuse animals. Animals are innocent and pure beings. They don’t wage wars or pollute the earth. Any pollution from animals comes from domesticated animals, and it’s due to humans interfering with those animals, like factory farming for example. Wild, untamed animals do not violate the natural laws of nature.

Some fascinating but tragic history from WW2.

On the eve of the Second World War, the British government launched a propaganda campaign encouraging people have their pets killed after whipping up hysteria about it being the kindest thing to do once gas attacks and food shortages started.

In the first week of the war, over 750,000 cats and dogs were slaughtered in London alone. Zoos up and down the country had their animals executed, from polar bears to lions. Millions of animals had been killed across the UK leading to untold heartbreak, and then resentment towards the British government for convincing people that this sick policy was even necessary.

In contrast, Germany enjoyed the best animal rights laws in the world.

Goes into astrophysics and the tree of life. Our indigenous worldview and cosmology is the correct one. The Bible and NASA scientists are full of shit and deceit.

More about Nehalenia in this Tribe of the Fox video. This video is about what we know about Her from history. However it is still possible to connect with this noble lady of the Northsea. The friendly, generous and playful goddess Nehalennia is still here and still on our side. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zwmn0DLyGzA&t=2s

Reproduction of Athena Parthenos

Construction of the Parthenon began in 447 BC after the orders of the Athenian statesman Pericles. Construction was completed 15 years later. Athena Parthenos, the most renowned image of Athens, stood in the temple with the serpent of Erichthonius at her feet, the head of Medusa on her breast, and a pair of serpents around her waist.  The statue was over 37 feet tall (11.5 meters) and the gold weighed about 1,000 kg (2,400 lbs). The entrance to the main temple was through the east main door.

This replica, modeled after the original statue that once appeared in the former temple on the Athenian Acropolis, took eight years to complete, and is the largest piece of indoor sculpture in the Western World. @GreekLeague

I’ve also come across information that says ancient people looked up at a very different sky than the one we see now. The book of Veles mentions the time of 3 moons.

Puck

Puck “Robin Goodfellow” “The Jester of the Faerie Court” “The King of Faerie” “The Oldest Old Thing in England” Among the fey perhaps no figure is more well known, more infamous, and more representative of them as a whole than that figure known as Robin Goodfellow. Or his much simpler title “Puck”. The figures of the Faerie court were more or less set in stone once, “A Midsummer Night's Dream” was set to pen and ink. Oberon and Titania sat at the top and below them was their court and Robin Goodfellow was the jester at the hand of The King of the Fey, Oberon. Yet it was not always so. The figure of Puck is in fact older than the depiction of Oberon and Titania as his master and mistress. Far older, far darker, far hairier, and far stronger. Puck, is one in actuality one of the most powerful members of the fae. No other work has had more of an impact on Puck's story than that of William Shakespeare's masterpiece “A Midsummer Night's Dream”. From here comes the bulk of Puck's modern personality and abilities, but most of all his station. He is the jester, the servant of Oberon. Yet, in the folklore Puck is far more prevalent than Oberon or Titania who find their origins in German and Roman myth respectively, and has far more claim to the throne of the fae than either of them. The fae are central to the animist practices of much of Europe, and Puck functioned as a prominent fertility spirit in English customs.
While Puck is often depicted as a child or even infant, sometimes with horns, sometimes without them. His much older depictions were more akin to wild men and satyrs. Often with a broom and an immense phallus. Puck's most well known epithet that of Robin Goodfellow is a combination of Robin a word for the devil, and Goodfellow an archaic term for pagan or heathen. He even found himself influencing other figures of folklore such as Robin Hood and Santa Claus. The former received his name as well as his role of May King from the influence of Robin Hood, while Puck's trademark laugh of “Ho, Ho, Ho!” overtime became more associated with Santa than Puck. This trademark laugh often arose after Puck performed a prank, such as posing as a beggar or chimney sweep then running away when someone approached him about a job or alms, cackling like a man man. Puck's association with both May Day and Chimney sweeps, eventually transferred over to the now defunct profession and May Day was known as the Chimney Sweep's Holiday. In this way Robin Hood's role in May Day celebrations could be considered him functioning as godhead or holy man for the much older figure of Puck.
Puck is also associated with the Pooka, a mischievous trickster as well as house spirit. Puck and the Pooka even share a favored prank of pretending to be a horse using their shape-shifting and then throwing people from their backs into a nearby body of water. Puck would often shapeshift to help those in need, especially lovers as he would sometimes play matchmaker. Though at other times Puck would change shape to lead people astray from the path, often as a Will-o-the-wisp. This gave rise to the expression “Puck has visited you this night” for those who have become lost. Puck often appears beside other folkloric figures, such as The Grim, Tom Thumb, and Oberon. Despite his love of performing pranks, he absolutely despises to have them performed on him and will take swift vengeance on those that have wronged him even in good fun. He is said to favor April 1st as a day for pranks by some. Though others will tie him into Samhain (Halloween) traditions as a fertility figure. Puck often wandered England and beyond, having his fun, playing tricks or matchmaker and all the while helping people where he could, his influence stretches far back, to before he appeared in Shakespeare's play and perhaps before The Anglo-Saxon arrival on Great Britain. Perhaps he truly is “The Oldest Old Thing in Britain” and he'll continue to help, hinder, and have his fun with us for ages to come.

The Orphic Egg - Ancient Greek Symbol of life and creativity

It is an egg with a serpent wrapped around it. This egg represents the cosmic egg from which Phanes, a diety, was birthed. Phanes was the diety of procreation and life.
Orpheus was a famous singer from Greek myth. He sang the Cerubus to sleep so he could pass through Hades and rescue his wife.
Phanes was created from the Orphic Egg. Phanes was a hermaphrodite, male/female, deity of light and goodness. He was one of the first gods born of the watery abyss of time. He in turn created the other gods.
The egg and snake represent the cosmos circled by the creative spirit.

Eofor-līc scionom, ofer hlēor-bergan: gehroden golde, fāh ond fýr-heard, ferh wearde hēold: gūþ-mōd grummon.

Boar-shapes shone over the cheek-guards adorned with gold,gleaming and fire-hard; keeping guard of life, raging with warlike spirit.
