The Tribe of the Fox likes to focus on the beauty of nature and culture. When this becomes a natural mindset it will change you and your energysystem. Likeminded people will gravitate to you aswell as situations that suit you. This is power that YOU own. We call this magick.
Fairytales contain a lot of knowledge about our Northwestern-European way of thinking that we had before abrahamism took over. One of these great fairytales is 'Frau Holle'. The deity Holle is very important in Northern-German and Dutch paganism. She is a very complex deity that rules the underworld and plays an important role in nature and in our 'wyrd'. By learning more about this fairytale, and understanding it, we can recover our pre-christian way of thinking again and teach this to our children. In the near future the Tribe of the Fox will release 2 videos about this fairytale and its meaning, because its so important. For now, and for the German speakers....here is a beautiful German familymovie about Holle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDYxiXi4Toc&t=8s
This lovely townhall in Holland is now a happy place. People marry there and when the weather is nice people eat and drink on the terraces of the restaurants there. Long forgotten seem the days of witchhunting in the 16th century. Although witchhunting was never as big in Holland as in other North(Western)-European countries there was witchhunting here too. The attic of this townhall was used to imprison women who were suspects of witchcraft. They were tortured and burned alive in front of the townhall. Fortunately these days are long gone! I always think about these women when i see this townhall and value my own freedom. There is nothing better than freedom!
Rivers are a very important part of the landscape we live in. People are drawn to rivers, not just for economic reasons, but also for recreation. Rivers often just have this nice energy radiating from them. Thats because rivers are living, spirited beings. The Urban Animist loves to tell about the Concho River in Texas and make videos about this important animist practice. In the meanwhile The Tribe of the Fox is filming videos in Holland about this topic and our videos about the river 'Nieuwe Maas' are being released in the near future. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrpgslcBhik

Ea Fader(River Father). The Spirit of The Concho River. And my Brother Ash Tree
In this video I talk about the Old man of the river and how he has helped me and what he has taught me. I talk a lot about animism, as usual.
I hope this is informative and helps you build your own practices!

Next thursday the Tribe of the Fox will release a video on our YT channel about how to connect with trees. This is a very important skill and not that hard to learn. Connecting with trees can teach you and your kids a lot about nature and about trusting your own intuition. This is a great way to change our way of thinking more towards how our ancestors were thinking before abrahamist thinking was forced upon the Northwestern-European folk. Christian clergy was against European people worshipping trees and the church even made laws against this beautiful practice. Guess what....we are still talking to trees😄😎!
For today the Tribe of the Fox released a video about how to connect with trees. We speak from experience, instead of theoretical knowledge, about this beautiful animist Northwestern-European practice. Lets connect with our treefriends and share this enjoyable and fun practice with the younger generations🙂. Just like our ancestors did. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AftlDwBMio

Soon the Tribe of the Fox is going to release three new videos. The first video is planned for tomorrow and is made by Dirkje. It is about visiting burial mounds to make contact with the ancestors. Dirkje filmed it in the beautiful Veluwe area, a place with 1000's of burial mounds, and talks about her experiences. The second video is planned for next monday and is about the runes. Dirkje tells about her experiences with the power of runes. And later next week the Tribe of the Fox will release a video about Wodan en Loki and how they play a role in the balance of our lives. The videos are coming your way🙂!
Somewhere in de woods, in the middle of the Netherlands, we discovered about 2000 burials mounds. A lot of them were already discovered during the '20's ande later. But I was happy to volunteer this project of searching for more of them. And beside the hystorical value, we feel ofcourse the wonderfull spiritual value. So watch and join this visit. https://youtu.be/VLDr3K-Z_2Y

Visiting burial mounds
What are those mysterious little hills everywhere in the forest?
We are searching for our roots, our spiritual heritage, our deities and our ancesters. And what do these barrows have to do with that?

Because of my Close attachment to The River that runs through my town, and to the greater Spirits that reside and embody it, The Blue Heron is an Omen for me.
Always a Good Omen.
When I’m thinking I can’t get out of something(situation or thought) or if I’m extremely worried The Blue Heron will literally either Land across from me on the opposite banks of the river, sometimes it’ll land very close to me. And other times it’ll just fly over me.
When one of these happens I know I’m going to be just fine.
The Heron Mother sends her Children to relay messages to me and many others. But most do not hear the message because they don’t know how, or they chose to ignore it.
I don’t. I am always thankful for the signs and messages.
Always be aware of the signs and omens around you at all times. If not, you may miss something important

Every morning as the sun is Rising, I stand staring at her in her journey into the morning sky.
I thank her for rising once again, and I usually give her fresh goats milk from goats milked not long before.
I'll say "Sunna, as you strengthen through the day, empower me to do the same.
May I be successful in every endeavor today. Allow me to be strong enough to withstand any storm that may be sent my way today.
Then as Sunna Sets every evening I will give her incense. And say, "Good night Sunna, may I see you again on the other horizon soon.
I thank you and I'm so very grateful for the day you have given me.
The small things do the most for ones soul and ones connection to everything.
Dont be afraid to acknowledge the spirits that have such might and power. They are our Biggest allies in this world.

Wodan, Loki and balance
Balance is a very important principle in nature. Opposites attract eachother and complement eachother. In this video i contemplate this principle by talking about Wodan and Loki and their role as bloodbrothers.

I love this German song from Leger des Heils: Der Gott, der Eisen wachsen liess. Great music and lyrics! Sounds very proud, determined and beautiful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EO7NIzsBf44

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…
der wollte keine Knechte,

No Love and Light in Paganism and Witchcraft
Is 'love and light' the real deal? Or do you prefer dark sides too?
Paganism and witchcraft are often influenced by the christian values of good and bad these days. But how did they think about this during pre-christian time.

Its weekend so why not releasing 2 video's? The first one is about my experiences with the goddesses Hella and Holle. Are they the same or are they 2 seperate deities? Off course Wodan is also talked about. In the 2e video i contemplate a place called Walhalla. Is Walhalla what you think it is? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XW7BERIGrmg
