We remain as the Undying Ones so long as we keep to the wisdom of the trees, and sew our seeds of Song and Blood across the lands our fathers took. Nothing in our heritage is evil, every thorn has its use. We fair ones who carry the blood of the North have been too good and too kind for too long for any lies about us to carry any true weight. Lead by example, and have no fear what the ill spells of fools bear. Speak low and with wisdom, and let the truth shine as bright as our hair is gold.

Spread wisdom and love to our kin, support and aid in healing who you can. Build tribe and stand steadfast. We have each other, so long as we live.
The above info from Robert S. Was very interesting and there were several things about the Federal reserve that you might find eye opening!
"Life, as a part, is interwoven with the life of the whole, not only present, but past and future, for while men come and go the folk lives on, continuous, eternal, providing its members perform their duty to it. Thus, in identifying himself with his folk man prolongs himself through the multiplicity of his ancestors and his descendants, and thereby attains immortality.
" Colin Jordan
"Keep close to Nature's heart... and break clear away, once in a while, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean." John Muir
Often compared to Thor of the Norse mythological world, Perun was considered the highest of all gods and was one of Svarog’s three sons. Perun was seen to be the creator and master of rain, lightning, and thunder (and anything that had to do with hurricanes and storms), Perun’s name is even based off the old Indo-European root “parg” meaning ‘to strike’, much like lightning would. In fact, the Polish word for ‘thunderbolt’ is Piorun. He possessed the ability to shoot lightning strikes from a bow as well as create storms to aid farmworkers.
Like Norse mythology, the Slavic world was depicted a large Oak tree, separating the world into three parts: Parv, where the gods would rule, Yav, which is populated by man and constitutes what is seen by the mortal eye, and finally Nav, which is shown as the tree’s roots and is the land of the dead, in other words it can considered the Slavic underworld. Perched on the branches of Parv, Perun would keep watch over the mortal world, protecting it from wrongdoing, such as that of Veles, the god of the underworld.
The relationship between the two gods is seen in a Slavic myth describing Veles’ annual ascent up the Slavic world tree in the form of a snake to Parv, stealing something of value to Perun, be it his children, wife, or cattle. Chasing Veles, Perun would shoot lightning bolts from the sky, hitting the earth where Veles would hide at the time. At the end of the battle, Veles would either be chased back into the underworld or vanquished and whatever he stole would be returned in the form of rain after which Perun takes his throne on the top of the tree proudly exclaiming “Ну, там твое место, там сабе будь!” (There is your place, remain there!), according to the Belarusian version of the tale. This myth would repeat itself each year, when Veles would return as a snake once again, shedding his skin from the previous battle.
To the Slavs, the coming of the rain season signified the Perun’s conquest over Veles, whenever there was a delay in the arrival of rain, this would mean Perun had yet to defeat Veles while storms were seen as larger conflicts between the two.
Unlike the conflict between God and the devil, the antagonism between Veles and Perun is not viewed as a fight between good and evil, but rather the opposition of the Earth’s forces, one being water and exisetence and the other being fire and spirit, the ancient Slavs believed these forces would bring upon the new season each year. A similar belief was held for the coming of Spring where it was believed that the demon of winter would reign for a season and eventually be defeated by Perun in battle.

We are each nodes along the web. One by one we awaken, one by one we light up, one by one we begin to pulsate outward. And, before you know it, the web is glowing and we have changed our fate.
