Our Germanic deities all have their own energy. Some gods and goddesses have more of a summer/springenergy and some a winter/autumnenergy. Now it is autumn again, my favorite season. This is also the season in which Vrouw Holle becomes more easy to feel. In my experience Vrouw Holle, or Frau Holle in German, is very much a liminal goddess. A goddess of the realm inbetween life and death. A wise old hag with a grandmotherly like energy🧙🏻♀️. Our own Saxon witch Dirkje has a great connection with this fascinating goddess. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suZeqQDIWVQ

Healing-mountain
Saddle your soul and let it ride
With blind eyes, you’ll surely find the way
Draw your breath in – let your thoughts fly
Let it out slowly – on winds you’ll bide
The spindle spins, the thoughts entwine revolving sight
The enchantment song lures the soul from its shape
Out through the door, through the cobweb-veil
Out borne on bare feet, a heavy burden
Out in your innermost, a steep trail ahead
High upon Healing-Peak, nine maidens await
At the first stop where paths cross, you pause
Leave clothes behind and all you own
Where you are heading, they’ll be of no use
The burden lightens, but heavy is the trail ahead
At the second stop where paths cross, you pause
Leave time behind, and weighty thoughts
Where you are headed, they’ll be of no use
The burden lightens, but heavy is the trail ahead
At the third stop where paths cross, you pause
Leave fears behind, let fall all masks
Where you are headed, they’ll be of no use
The burden lightens, but heavy is the trail ahead
Naked at the top, the mountain knows you
North waves an eagle-wing, the wind it draws
The shadow-women dance about you
They sing for you, chanting powerful runes
Wounds and sickness
Of marrow and blood
Of meat and bone
Of flesh and skin
into weather and wind
you fade
I summon you into the mountain blue
Where neither sun nor moonshine can reach you
I summon you into the forest where no one dwells
and out to the sea where no man rows
Deep beneath an earthbound stone
out of harm’s way
Run through the rivers
and roll with the ocean tides
Into weather and wind you fade
Neither sun nor moonshine can reach you
Sink in the sea where no man rows
Run through the rivers
and roll with the ocean tides
Healing-mountain stands for eternity
It comforts the sick and the sore
Each and every one who assails that rock
Will find their lifelong ailment cured
Leave it behind on Healing-Peak
Where the rivers and streams
dance northwards and down
That mountain mends all those who climb

Ever notice how all this Covid crap (masks, touch less, shots, distancing, cleaning, sanitation, etc) and airport/airplane announcements etc say these measures are to “KEEP YOU SAFE.”
They never say it’s to keep you WELL or keep you HEALTHY
Hmmmm.... SAFE from what or for what?

The North Sea
The dark and green force of nature
roars on the beach,
and when I take a deep breath
be taken by life itself,
I long for the cold on my skin.
The gods welcome me
by the primal power
of the waves around me.

All warfare is based on deception. Therefore, when capable, feign incapacity; when active, inactivity. When near, make it appear that you are far away; when far away, that you are to lure him; feign disorder and strike him. When he concentrates, prepare against him; where he is strong, avoid him. Anger his general and confuse him. Pretend inferiority and encourage his arrogance.

What IF …
✨ What if not having a v passport meant that you could no longer go to a restaurant and instead were forced to have picnics and dinner parties?
✨ What if not having a v passport meant that instead of supporting huge supermarket chains where 80% of the food is rubbish, you instead had to turn to your local farmers and green grocers?
✨ What if not being allowed to fly meant that instead you had to explore your own beautiful state or roadtrip through the countryside? Bringing business back to small towns along the way.
✨ What if losing your job working for a company meant that instead you got to start building your passion and vision and start your own business and got to keep the income generated for yourself?
✨ What if instead of running straight to the doctor you started looking into other healing modalities that focused on the cause instead of the symptoms?
✨ What if instead of being stuck indoors training in a gym you trained amongst nature and in the fresh air and sunshine?
✨What if... instead of living in fear you lived in faith and you started realizing that these could be silver linings and blessings in disguise. 🧡
