1. Power places what are they?
Our ancestors were not so distracted by stimuli in our modern age as we are. Spirited land with specific power or energy was easier for them to feel. These power spots are places that:
• possess a high energy and/or
• have an ancient cultural history and/or
• have had or still have a ritual function
How do you know where a power spot is?
• by archaeological data in which remains of ancient cultures have been found
• by onomastics. In the Netherlands, for example, the Woensberg is a hill dedicated to Wodan.
• through folklore, folktales, lore and history
• through trance journeys, they allow you to explore a power place. In ancient cultures people used trance techniques and ancestor worship to get connected to information from other realms.

2. Which two main groups of power places are there?
• pre-christian power places
• christianized power places
In the Netherlands, pre-christian power places are for example, megalitic stone tombes, burial mounds, sacrificial stones, sacred wells, hills and cultplaces in nature.
The christianized power places often have churches or chapels that were built after 1350. They were built near or even on sacred trees, wells and cultplaces.
I think it is nice an essential to your pagan faith to be aware of such places in your own neighborhood.

The concept of intermediaries/priests/popes/middlemen, came in with Abrahamism.
And although in more recent times, some Christians claim to have a personal relationship with their Christian god, still, the existence of holy books, and the church hierarchy of popes, and priests serves the purpose of intermediaries/middlemen between the Christian/Abrahamic God, and the people.
Some may argue, and say that the old world pagan cultures did in fact have intermediaries, which were the shamans, seers, sages, wizards, witches, cunning folk, druids, volkhvs, etc...
To make it easier I will refer to all of these different names collectively as shamans both males & females. I am not a scholar of this subject. I’m only sharing my current understanding based on all of the information I’ve absorbed, and all I’ve learned over the years.
My personal reply to this comparison between the pagan shamans, and Abrahamic priests would be that they cannot be compared, for they are not the same.

The pagan shamans were not just attending to matters and problems of a spiritual nature, they’ve also treated physical illnesses much like modern doctors. As well as dealing with fertility department, and other issues that are physical in nature.
The way I understand it, is that to the old-world shamans it all went together, the physical, mental, and the spiritual, for it was all interconnected, and one effects the other.
Whenever the shamans dealt with the person’s physical problem, they understood that they are at the same time dealing with this individual’s mental, and spiritual state.
And we know that this is not at all what an Abrahamic priest of the church is. So just by acknowledging this, we can already see why we can’t compare the indigenous shamans to Christian priests.

To say that the old-world shamans served the same purpose as Abrahamic priests I personally feel is incorrect, because one side represents a man-made religion and book, whilst the other side represents the living nature, natural cycles, and organic life made by the gods.
A Christian priest intermediates/speaks on behalf of his Abrahamic god, but the pagan shamans will take you to meet the gods. The shaman will guide you to the gods, and you yourself can talk to them.
Christian priest will speak for Christian God for which there is no evidence, and which you yourself can not personally directly experience, but the pagan shaman will take you on a spiritual journey, the one that you yourself will experience with your own consciousness and mind, and it requires no blind belief, because you will know.

Form & Matter are a frozen SoNg, SouNds, and ReSonance which are the Son or Song of God.
AuDio, RaDio, ViDeo etc. come from the word Deus/Dios which are Latin & Spanish for God, or a better translation would be from God.
Sound, frequencies and vibrations play a key role in our ancient history.
Sound is able to manifest Light & physical form which includes you. Your body is composed 70% of primarily water.
How do you think different sounds, frequencies and music may affect your health, good & bad?
Hollywood music especially is designed to keep you on a certain vibration, and in a state of mind to keep your consciousness suppressed.
Much love,
Niko

Amish Farmer Faces $250K Fine, Jail Time And Losing His Sustainable Farm For Processing His Own Meat
A federal judge told Miller to cease and desist all meat sales, and sent armed U.S. marshals to search his property, farm store and freezers. They took an inventory of all his meat to make sure he doesn’t sell any or slaughter anymore animals.
Last summer, the judge also ordered Miller to pay $250,000 for “contempt of court,” and said he will also have to pay the salaries of the USDA investigators assigned to his case, $50,000 of which was due last week as a “good faith” payment to avoid jail.
