A werewolf painting I whipped up for the cover of my article in the impending release of Wylder Times publication.
Edit: I deleted the initial post because there was something seriously wrong with the shadows, lighting and colours. It seems PS didn't export the colour profile properly. I just hope this will upload the correct profile.

Leger des Heils - Der Gott, der Eisen wachsen ließ
Der Gott, der Eisen wachsen liess
der wollte keine Knechte,
drum gab er Säbel, Schwert und Spieß
dem Mann in seine Rechte;
drum gab er ihm den kühnen Mut
den Zorn der freien Rede,
daß er bestände bis aufs Blut
bis in den Tod die Fehde
So wollen…

bis in den Tod die Fehde

The Anglo-Saxon Sċop and Norse Skald, were the storytellers & keepers of culture, folk-history, and godly lore.
Skalds were highly-honored, and feared, in their ability to compose poetry about people; a poem could help or hurt one’s reputation. When a Skald praised their lords, they were well-rewarded. They were folk’s teachers, historians, advisors, & musicians. From a Skald, children learned their history, literature, and religion.
Sċops were Anglo-Saxon minstrel who, like the Skald, were teachers, historians, advisors, & musicians; teaching the history, literature, and religion of their folk.
The Old English poem ‘Ƿidsið’ (Widsith) is a fictional biography of a Sċop; giving us an idea of the Sċop’s status and role within society, as it surveys of the folk, kings, and heroes of the Northern European Heroic Age.
Interestingly, the poem refers to a group of people called the Wicinga cynn, which may be the earliest mention of the word, ‘Viking’ (lines 47, 59, 80).

The days are getting shorter, the sky is gray and the colors of the fall are beautiful. I associate autumn with the time of our ancestors. Halloween is not only one date for me, but a whole period, in which extra attention is reserved to our pagan ancestors. Martijn emphasizes in this very nice video the importance of paying attention to our ancestors. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvaH0LFE9TI

Honour your ancestors. So don't be a loser!
A core element of heathenism, paganism and animism is the veneration of your ancestors. How do you practice this? The Tribe of the Fox explains this ancient Northwest-European practice. And we show a burial mound in the province of Gelderland.

My third and final iteration of the werewolf. I darkened the fur and softened the highlights whilst blending the werewolf into the BG. I'm not too sure if the looks any better.

The people who are connected with their true Ethnic Spirituality, are the only ones who understand what's really going on.. Why is that?.. It's Because they are drawing on a knowledge that is older than everything else ⚔️

Oct 24 - Scottish Country Dance of the Day, "The Scottish Werewolf" for Werewolf Day!
"On the edge o this world oor protector lies,
His form nae pleasing tae oor eyes,
He roas a beast o wolf an man,
Inside purer hert than oor clan,
Noble creatures withoot sin,
For innocents are spared by him."
~ The Wulver, Steve Ward, 2010
Unlike their European counterparts, Scottish werewolves, known as "Wulvers" (from the folklore of the Shetland islands), spend much of their time fishing and can be kind-hearted, often guiding lost travelers to nearby towns and villages. Taking pity on the needy by leaving fish on the windowsills of poorer families, the Wulver was spotted on a regular basis around Shetland up to the start of the 20th century! Covered in a layer of thick brown hair, and unlike the werewolf, the Wulver was believed to be in-between stage of man and wolf. never human in the first place. Respect your local Wulver! 🐺

A beautiful song from Falkenstein about our European goddesses❤️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51CE2six_kg

Die große Göttin [German neofolk song][+English translation]
This version was sung by the great group "Falkenstein" (with Tobias Falkenstein).
A poem from the great Hugo Kaeker from around 1919 in "Vom Land am Meer", turned into a song by Falkenstein about the female aspect of nature/ Mother Earth in the Germanic…

We're all connected. This is why you may yawn, smile or sneeze when you see others do. This is why a friend might call you just when you happen to think about her. It's an intricate web of invisible strings.
In this spiritual war, you can help by working on yourself. As Tesla said, “If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration”. And when you have the keys, you may enter.
You're more powerful than you think. As within, so without. 🙏

..'spider' - from *(s)pen- 'to spin'.
'web' - from *(h)uebh- "to weave"
The spider is the eight legged web-wanderer, the critter who walks natures silken web, just as Sleipnir is Woden's eight legged beast, who is able to walk the Web of Wyrd and travel across the nine (Anglo-Saxon seven) worlds.
