Ésatréow Arise
For several decades now, there has been a religious revival taking place all over the Western world among the descendants of the indigenous peoples of Northern Europe. This religion, known as Ésatréow (Ay-zah-tray-oh), meaning ‘Belief in the Gods’, or Wodendom, embodies the wisdom, lore, and customs of an ancestral culture developed in Norway, Iceland, the Faroe Islands, Denmark, Sweden, England, Scotland, Germany, the Netherlands, and Austria. The children of these lands, who have explored the entire world, spread the values and ideals ingrained within this belief system wherever they went, even after they were converted to a foreign dogma. These values include a respect for honor and valor, as well as kindness and compassion, and a fierce devotion to the concepts of liberty and independence. We worship many deities, and therefore understand that, just as there are various Gods and Goddesses, there are various ways to connect to them. As one source states “There is no truth, but there are truths,” so we will not dictate to one another how each are supposed to live their lives on the Wodenish path, as long as we do so with honor and integrity. However, when we establish our Schools of Thought, as other polytheistic systems have, we can build a solid foundation of belief and moral integrity.

This is an old talk. I’ve changed much over the years. A few things stated in this video, today I might tweak a bit, but that’s what happens when you learn and grow - you change your mind, you evolve. Overall though, the crux of what I dealt with, still holds water. I hope this helps you today.

Our Folk Belief
What we can do for one another is provide a foundation for us to be able to live spiritually fulfilled lives using the religion that calls to us through the voices of our forebears. In order for Ésatréow/Wódendóm to have real worth, beyond a set of maxims for living and rituals to perform, it must be able to significantly benefit our folk and then the whole of mankind. Thus it must be able to answer those important philosophical questions such as: Why are we here? What is the meaning of life? What happens when we die? What is the nature of divinity? and so on. But for Wódeneras/Ésatréoweras, the answers to these questions must be logical and reasonable, for we will not accept fantastical explanations or baseless superstitions. Our lore is symbolic, which just about all of us understand and accept; but underneath the symbols and allegories are spiritual truths that are profound and enlightening, and can aid us in our search for understanding the hidden forces of our universe.

Diatomaceous Earth
This fluffy, soft white powder is created by grinding up the tiny fossils of diatoms (plankton) in sedimentary rock. It is mostly silica.
To us, this powder is pleasantly poofy, kind of like what you would imagine angels would have dustbaths in to fluff up their wings.
However, to insects, this powder - at their scale - is like a pile of jagged broken glass. It tears away at their bodies, exposing them to the elements, which causes them to dehydrate and die.
Pile it up around plants, dust it on leaves. However, water deactivates it, so you have to reapply every time it gets wet.
It will kill beneficial insects, too, so be careful with it around flowers!
It has more uses than just in the garden:
- Mix with your dry food storage to deter pests.
- Ingest to take care of internal parasites.
- Lifting stains - absorbs twice its weight in liquid, water or oil!
- Deodorizer for pets or trash can.
- Flea/tick control on pets!
ALWAYS buy food grade DE! Other stuff is full of fillers.

Preserve our Culture
“Because of this, Wódendóm/Ésatréow is as much a cultural celebration as it is a religious revival. The traditions we adhere to form a link in time to all who have used them in the past and to all who will do so in the future. This link then binds us to our ancestors and our descendants in a way that is not only metaphysically significant, but is also deeply meaningful to us. Combine this with our relationship to our folk today and you have a living, dynamic culture which expresses the values of our faith in their purest form.
The culture, the traditions, these are more powerful than the religion itself because they are ingrained within our psyches as a part of our natural inheritance. It was the traditions that our ancestors fought most fervently for against the invading Church, who eventually had to co-opt them into a false ‘Christian’ model to convince the indigenous Europeans to accept this. Even today people know that ‘holy days’ such as Christmas, Easter, and Halloween have nothing to do with the Bible and were in fact originally heathen celebrations, yet Christians all over the world still celebrate them. They cannot break away from their ancestral roots. That is the power of culture, which will always be a part of the human experience.”
