A Land Reborn.
Our land is the very essence of who we are. It is the backbone of all of our lore. Without it, the connection to the hidden realms of our culture will cease to exist
With this post I want to showcase a phenomenon that has been happening in Britain for some years now but has grown exponentially in recent times.
The photos above are only a few examples of what is called ‘rewilding’. This is the concept of allowing our environment to take back segments of our land in order to restore or native wildlife. This is a unique opportunity to view our land in a way we haven’t seen before and simultaneously benefit our environment.
The pictures you see come from the following locations:
•Glenfeshie
•Monks Wood
•Knepp Estate
•Alladale

The Pohjankuru ('Northern Gorge') idol, originally believed to have been the end of a long totem like the Big Shigir idol, was unearthed during the construction of a railroad in the late 19th century in Pohja municipality, not far from the southernmost tip of Finland. It is dated to the period of the Comb Ceramic culture, i.e. between 5000 and 2000 BCE. The material is pine.
The function of this and similar anthropomorphic figures has been interpreted in many different ways. Some researchers regard them as representations of gods, others as proxies of deities used as cult objects. It is possible that some figures depict real ancestors.
One of the sources that may be relevant for their semantic interpretation is the ritual art of the Ob-Ugrians – the Khanty and Mansi. Certain elements of the ancient Uralian beliefs have evidently survived in Ugrian legends and myths.

Celtic Coin of the Dobunni King Corio
This is a 'Tree Type' gold stater of the Dobunni tribe. It was struck circa 20 BC to AD 5 during the rule of Corio. On the obverse is the image of a tree-like emblem known as a Dobunnic Tree, with a pellet below. The reverse bears the name Co[rio] above a triple-tailed, stylized Celtic horse, with a wheel below and other symbols in the field. The Dobunnic Tree's meaning is unclear although corn, ferns and a form of a wreath have all been suggested as explanations.

Heksenfluit or witch flute, fashioned from a rat's leg around 1890.
In folklore there are tales of enchantment by rat kings and pipers whose flutes are made out of rat vertebrae. Conjures up imagery of the Pied Piper myth.

"The impact of an archetype, whether it takes the form of immediate experience or is expressed through the spoken word, stirs us because it summons up a voice that is stronger than our own. Whoever speaks in primordial images speaks with a thousand voices; he enthrals [sic] and overpowers, while at the same time he lifts the idea he is seeking to express out of the occasional and the transitory into the realm of the ever-enduring. He transmutes our personal destiny into the destiny of mankind, and evokes in us all those beneficent forces that ever and anon have enabled humanity to find a refuge from every peril and to outlive the longest night." - Carl Jung
"The most effective ideals are always fairly obvious variants of an archetype, as is evident from the fact that they lend themselves to allegory. The ideal of the 'mother country', for instance, is an obvious allegory of the mother, as is the 'fatherland' of the father. Its power to stir us does not derive from the allegory, but from the symbolical value of our native land. The archetype here is the participation mystique of primitive man with the soil on which he dwells, and which contains the spirits of his ancestors." - Carl Jung

ᴭ Interesting to note that according to Tacitus, not only did the Germans not practice usury or charge interest of any sort, they didn’t even know what it was.
If the Germans wanted to take over a nation they did it through honourable warfare, not subversive swindles.

The journey into darkness, symbolized by the transition of autumn into winter, is the season of returning to the womb and the cycle of conception. This is the time to face the night, to enter into the caves of your depths, and to bear the torch that was fashioned from your dead. Equal parts reflection and slumber, the expulsion of the cold and darkness will expel darkness from within as well. You will burst back out into the world with the rays of the sun, and the shoots of new, green growth, taking with you knowledge that is at once new and eternal.

The 'dark night of the soul' occurs in cataclysm. The cataclysm of the spirit, of the soul, of the heart and mind. It becomes you. You experience it, move through it, die within it and are reborn of it.
The cataclysm does not always lead to the 'dark night' but the cataclysm always transforms. It will plunge you into blackness and drown you, then pull you back up into the world, illuminated and reformed.
The 'dark night' burns away your illusions and unearths your truths. It reveals what you once were and what you will become.
So when you find yourself in crisis and the darkness is upon you, tell yourself; I am merely returning.
