Sommerfugl

Du flรธy fra meg som en sommerfugl og nรฅ sitter jeg her igjen.. Ensom og tankefull.

Tenker pรฅ alt det som eg gjorde , bรฅde rett og feil og galt.

Jeg visste ikke den gang hva jeg hadde, fรธr jeg lot deg slippe taket.

Du falt fra meg som en vissen rose men jeg plukket deg opp igjen.

Etter noen รฅr kom du endelig tilbake med glede latter og sorg.

Vรฅr tid er vรฅr alt og alt det skal bli bra nรฅr vi kjรธrer pรฅ ilag.

Bare ร‰n Siste

Bare en siste ja hadde du visst det.

Sรฅ hadde du aldri tatt den der siste.

Hvem kunne vite at det aldri ble siste, ja bare nesten en siste hele tiden eg lekte med deg.

Sier til meg selv hver dag at idag skal eg slutte for eg klarte det jo sรฅ bra for en stund siden..

Evig tilgang, altfor tilgang til รฅ stoppe den der motoren.

Har ingen revers, bare straight forward!

Idag e det siste sรฅ trapper eg ned.

Det kan jo ikke vรฆre sรฅ stress, men fy faen som eg gruer meg..

Men alt dette sa eg i gรฅr ogsรฅ.

Sรฅ vi fรฅr no se ka sรฅ skjer.

Eg vet รฉn ting som er sterkere en meg og det er viljen min og den kan fort snu, for eg vet nรฅr eg befinner meg blant feil folk eller pรฅ feil sted.

Det er kun meg som kan klare det, det er kun meg som kan si stopp.

Selvmedlidenhet kommer man ikke langt med sรฅ det dropper vi.

Livet er for kort!

Man mรฅ gรฅ fremover og aldri se seg tilbake og det er egentlig ganske lett for meg men det virker som det er verre for dere som ser.

Sรฅ fortell meg hvordan jeg skal gjรธre fremskritt nรฅr det dere ser er gรฅrsdagens verste mann?

Da er det jeg som gรฅr forover mens dere tar et skritt bakover for meg.

  • Hvordan skal man lรฆre hvis man alltid blir trukket bakover for noe man gjorde for flere รฅr siden?
Er det rart folk gir opp รฅ prรธve?

Alfaรฐrโ€™s Rรถst – Innblikk

Eg er Allfaรฐrโ€™s rรธyst.
Du bรธr hรธyra mine ord , for dei som inte gjorde sรฅ er allereie falne englar uten at dei veit det sjรธl.
Det har vore mykje sorg og nokre tรฅre medan, men slik vert det.
Det har vore spott og spe men det einaste eg ville var รฅ gje eit innblikk i ei framtid fรฅ veit om.
Eg veit no at eg aleine mรฅ vandre eit liv fรธr sirkelen blir samla.
Eg har allerede sitt mange sjeler, men kven dei er fortelje eg ei.
Det vil komme mรธrke tider fรธr den stund, men du kor vakkert da blir nรฅr det virkelige lyset kjem i sin sanne form.
Det er fรธrst nรฅr den tid kjem eg kan skape det som skapas skal, og endeleg smile att.
Sรฅ sant dykk sanna mine ord.

Norse Gods? Do we need more info?โ€ฆ

Imagine if you had never seen winter before,no thunder etc nobody had told you about the four seasons, so of course when the winter “ice-age” came people panicked because they did not know how long this season would last and if there were enough food for all the people.

The Norse Gods is simply the forces within nature which were created through fear of the unknown but also to warn the future generations about the spirits/forces within nature, some were seen as necessary but feared at the same time.
This is why they made sacrifices to please the Gods each year because they believed it worked and it did because all seasons comes every year.

It’s also a good way to learn youth to give back to nature and respect it.

Back then they did not think like we did and did not have the same knowledge, they had a completely different and better mindset of course.

That being said they developed better knowledge and understanding of nature and itโ€™s forces/gods back then and knew how to respect and treat mother earth.

I personally think that they did not fear the gods like in a religion and is not to be confused with any religion.
Superstition is a more suiting word which probably ruled in the very beginning.

Talking about the gods in Norse mythology is like deciphering a belief system they used to learn their kids to treat and respect mother earth and her forces.
To put it simply : Those who claim that our ancestors were god-fearing religious people are wrong Iโ€™d say and after reading several books on the subject I just had to write this.
How many books do we need on the subject btw? Itโ€™s not that hard to understand if explained properly.

They spoke,thought,behaved in a totally different way back then so itโ€™s important to keep in mind while studying Norse Mythology to keep in mind that this was the first “documented” happenings on earth and that most things were written as myths when language became a thing.
Before that they had only word of mouth and possibly signs/runes to pass on the message.
So they were not dumb people like some say, they invented our language,traditions and the only way we know how to stick to reality : Runes and later the alphabet.

If you think about it they were not really that primitive compared to us today, they were harder,smarter in the “right” ways.

Today most people donโ€™t know how to hunt anything so I dare you to learn the old ways because they will and should be useful once again.
To answer the title question, no we donโ€™t need more info, we need to decipher it ourselves and learn how easy life can be if you follow some guidelines.
I could go on but I will keep it short because thatโ€™s all you need.
Mark my words and good luck!
SHTF soon enoughโ€ฆ

Veils Of Darknes

I enjoy the presence of the dead spirits and I summon them to collect and create a greater chaos to rule mankind.

To let you know how this morbid fascination for death started ,we have to go back in time;

Once I was away, far away from this anger lurking inside me eating me up alive.

So much hate so much pain and all this dark emotions i side of me.

I now know that immortality is no longer dream but reality.

I cut myself with a sharp knife while thinking of a person I wanted to kill and it felt like nothing really , no pain..

Just vague feelings of redemption,satisfaction and emptiness like taking a break from this distorted world we live in.

I almost bled to death in the woods.

I thought it was better to harm myself than end up in prison before my life had begun.

Iโ€™ve never cut myself more than that one time, I donโ€™t have the need to , nor am I suicidal.

I just needed to let some steam out I guess.

I donโ€™t dwell on the past happenings for long unless it gives me clues to the presence.

I have found out that I left some part of my soul out there in the forest where I almost bled to death.

I “torment” myself like a human vessel and I get an ecstasy every time I see me or my goddess blood running and opens up a veil to another world that is revealing more and more of itself as I day by day sacrifice my blood to obtain the highest power of souls and energy.
I cannot turn back now, Iโ€™ve gone too far into the demon realm but I love it here and I swear not to return when the work is done.
I speak,write and artistically approach my work from the light and dark souls that give me the the knowledge of the hidden world, the world only few of you will know now (luckily).
There is a key to an entire world in our unconsciousness, subconsciousness and our possibilities as human beings is almost limitless to what we do and how we live now.
This world of opportunities has existed since the dawn of time and we often visit when we dream or meditate.
Sleep is after all the cousin of death.
Do you remember your dreams?
If you do start writing it down or try to remember even more because itโ€™s possible to go (back) further into a dream if you wake up before itโ€™s time.
Our mind/soul is an amazing tool.

Some souls are very impatient because they do not know they are dead or have things to tell their beloved ones before they leave and this is where my work begins, where it ends I donโ€™t know and I donโ€™t want to know anymore than I already do.
The more knowledge the more pain and sorrow, and this is so true but one can never tell or share what one think,see or hear.
One can only give hints and small clues to the people โ€˜involvedโ€™.

If one does there is a chance that people will fear you or see you as a madman and I do somehow understand the scepticism around it.
The dead souls are not dangerous to most people, they are tricky and will test you or “play” with your mind if you let them so one better focus or lose ones mind.
Little did I know when I started this path that there is no way to lock/unlock the portals,keys and gates youโ€™ve opened up and obtained through the years.
I studied magic since I was in my very early teens and several times I almost gave up because nothing gave me the satisfaction I had hoped for.
About 20 years later I received the gift Iโ€™d yearned for but I canโ€™t tell you what it is because that would be the same as lending oneโ€™s sword to the enemy at the battlefield.
I felt and enormous relief and was very thankful for the gift I was blessed with, it showed me that even though the lonely times,storms I never stopped believing in what I do.
Some things are not supposed to come easy and some things are better of untold.
I can say that itโ€™s not for everyone and itโ€™s not some power to “abuse” and all your actions will have consequences just like in “regular” life.
There are rules that apply to those who enter the spirit world and itโ€™s very important to follow the guidelines youโ€™re given along the way.
Be very careful of who you trust with your thoughts,questions etc.
Not everyone is who they pretend to be.
Those who say the less is usually the ones with the most knowledge but since there is a time and place for everything that happens in our lives those who know will not tell more than absolutely necessary because they know how important it is to walk in the right direction at the right time and other such experiences.
It is not just a “game” you can turn off when youโ€™re tired.
Most of us are born with an open mind but even if you have an open mind and see something and almost nobody believe in you and just taunt you , you will eventually continue with what you do quietly or forget itโ€™s existence during your childhood.
Luckily I had a close person who believed in me.
That person never give me any advice though, she just tells if Iโ€™m “right” or “wrong” in my search.
It is when you start questioning the “obvious” things in life you will start getting answers, but donโ€™t ask for more than you can receive and by that I mean it as literal as I can get.
Letโ€™s take an example; If you ask for something that is bigger than a book and impossible to explain in one book or even during life time.
You will receive more info than your brain is capable of handling and it might drive you insane in worst case scenario.
Some people are just more sensitive towards picking up energies/auras etc than others.
Some people can hold a stone or feel itโ€™s energies working through the body whilst others donโ€™t feel that same presence, even so it does not mean they are incapable of doing the same things.
They may just need to open up a bit and relax because if youโ€™re not open to things it wonโ€™t work.
If you refuse to let yourself feel what you truly feel you will feel very empty after some years.
We are what we surround ourselves with.
That is why it is important to have a sense of balance in life.
A starting point which you go back to and pick up the pieces if you get lost in life and if you have been kind to yourself and opened up for love,empathy and similar emotions you may meet someone who will hold the light for you and guide you in the right direction.
We are reflections of our inner self and sometimes we may not even know that we reflect a negative energy to others around us on a daily basis.
This is why itโ€™s important to get in touch with your inner self or go see someone who can help you get rid of all the garbage you go around with.

The Final Rebirth (Our Future)

Gods only exist as long as their people” and that is why it is so important that we preserve the old european heritage,culture and traditions that was taken from us by force and highly edited and abused for their own benefits by those who invented a to us unknown and alien abrahamic religion.

Everything that was originally pagan traditions and lifestyle morphed slowly into Christian traditions thanks to this because they were left with no choice but these days we are slowly morphing back to paganism because our old traditions and way of life feel more right to us natives and makes more sense than religion in itself.

Paganism is nothing superstitious and is mainly written in metaphors to give us a deeper understanding of Mother Earth, rebirth,traditions our way of living and more. I personally think many confuses paganism with magic and more supernatural things is because they take what they read too literally. In example if someone read a book about witches

cooking their magic potion using bat wings and all sorts of stuff, it’s mostly only codes for ingredients, not bat wings for instance. The pagans back then did it to preserve and carry on their traditions in a secret way. The same also goes for all traditions etc,etc.

Those who forced Christianity upon us also created money which is known as the blood of the world and it causes greed witch will be our downfall. Trading goods is a much better alternative.

What a coincidence how money and a God is created at the same time and forced upon large areas on earth more or less and still some people see us as the enemy?

Those who are best suited to carry on our legacy is Native Europeans because we are grounded here, know the resources , naturally adapt to the climate and more things you can study about for yourself.

It’s still not to late to preserve our culture because as I and others already have written, paganism and it’s traditions and lifestyle never really disappeared , it just morphed into a religion but most people still practiced their old believes secretly and thus our culture was brought along with us from birth trough fairytales,christmas,easter, halloween et cetera who originally all are pagan festivities and celebrations but with different names than most of us use now.

Even today we celebrate most pagan holidays , many of us just don’t know about it.

Christianity changed the original names for our holidays, the symbolism of our myths and traditions and incorporated Christianity into our childrenยดs fairytales but if you read those myths and fairytales once more you will hopefully see how they have (mis)placed Christianity into it all. It just does not make sense.

I will not write so much more about this since it’s already well explained in several books I will add here later.

Although I have to mention that there is a huge difference in teaching youth and make them understand subjects such as nature,body,birth,rebirth and other wisdom through myths, fairytales,traditions and life experience is much better than scaring children with false promises and religions that no one really can verifyยดor actually believe in.

There are still people struggling with mental issues because of fanatic religious people which are the “worst in my opinion. It’s not strange when one think about how these children were raised with guilt for doing thing that are completely normal human behavior.

I have written more about this before and will publish it eventually.

As long as there are people left who remember or know about our heritage it will live on but it’s important to pass the information on and enlighten your own and/or those who are willing to listen. It’s a waste of time and useless trying to force anyone and besides we would be no better than those who forced their abrahamic views upon us.

This is why our children and our kin is so important for the European legacy and our future as a race. There is probably a good and natural reason why we were divided into separate races in different parts of the world and eventually formed tribes.

A tribe is easier to control than an entire country and it’s a more close approach to live in harmony with the people you know and trust. If anything happens or are up for discussion the entire tribe is around and it’s also easier to bring up kids in such an environment.

Schools would not be needed as it is today because the kids will automatically learn skills from their parents,neighbors or friends via work and homeschooling.

There would not be any unemployed people in an ideal future where farmers,fishermen,hunter gatherers and everyone else living in peace and harmony,kids would learn all the basic skills needed from parents,neighbors or tribe. It would also be easier to control that they get the right information and education while growing up.

Everyone will be a part of the wheel that keeps turning and I think that would contribute to better mental health and solve a lot of todays illness. To be able to live this way we will have to change many things and personally I would believe that most of us should stick to our native places because we will be more resourceful there. As for me personally, I’m not fit to work long days in 35 celsius for instance. I prefer a colder climate and I like all four seasons we have here as they all have their own charm.

Everyone is also able to work for a few hours now and then even if they’re not capable of working a full day they still contribute to the common good and will also feel better. Some would say a harder life while I say a much easier and more complete lifestyle overall

Things will be more spread out over the population of the tribe so none will sit with everything and vice versa. We don’t want greed to ruin the world once more.

The Barbarian’s Quest – The Beginning…

The dreams dwelling deeper into The Wide Eyed‘s mind all the time. If not they crawl against him in hopes of that it will destroy his mind and soul into darkness.

He always manage to crawl back up again and break through another wall in fury over nothing other than himself.

Some even claim that he walked into the kingdom where dead souls rest also known as the Netherworld where dead Barbarians and other Iโ€™ll tempered creatures lie.


He even entered the light of infinity even though he never had seen it before but he started to walk away from the other side of living and experiences with her body in the darkness of universe.
All of a sudden they were not satisfied with the Wide Eyed being shut down by dead people who sacrificed their dreams for the earth and the universe.
His surroundings and the lightening from our nature awoke and brought him into the powerful warrior The Blue Eyed Barbarian once again.


He was not afraid of what we were doing with our own dream experiences and we had found a way to get hold of the Andaramรฉdian children again as soon as possible before he started talking about the things that we have understood and are thankful for it all.

He was no longer in anger or disturbed visions about what it is about to take care of the people who are survival ,experience and future of dreams with a deeper understanding of nature and the wisdom that we will always have to be understood at once or something to satisfy The Blue Eyed Barbarianโ€™s extremely time based in nature and most people who have understood what they were given are now realities of living in harmony with the others who sacrificed their dreams for Andaramรฉdianโ€™s children,women and elves.
Itโ€™s a known fact that most people who donโ€™t knew  him personally would be a great person afterwards meeting him in person.


He was actually a very good hearted Barbarian who was found on an island of Iamhatichon, despite the fact that the dark souls would be a strong opposition to the elves and especially the barbaric tribes of the coming times of Andaramรฉdian historical existence.
His ancestors had been exposed before and they never showed emotions and they didnโ€™t know how to make a decision on their own journey and where he would fit into the darkness of his own dreams, experiences and because of this way of dreaming the elders were never really satisfied with what he did.This may seem unfair to most people but if you think about it it only arose from a different perspective of it:
The elderly were hard on their own to make them a bigger warrior.Itโ€™s a chance to take as it could easily become a mistake if done wrong and the chosen ones would suffer to a certain degree but grow harder and then wiser in ways not spoken about.
When they were given death they admitted to Wide Eyed that they had thought of him in an underestimating way..


Luckily they realised that he was chosen by our highest power of our ancestors who created this universe and earth to mankind as a human being of our own dreams of love and harmony and so many people will always be there to make sure it is the best way to make sure that we will make our children of Andaramรฉdia grow roots in their surroundings as we can learn from each otherโ€™s thoughts and experiences with our ancestors helping us with each otherโ€™s emotions in a  way we can first to come to the reality we all know how to do this beauty as a result of The Wide Eyes elders finally understood how the world of Iamhaticho we started with our own wisdom we had to be understood by our society that doubts about our beliefs.
The Blue Eyed Barbarian would never matter how much they were given.He was told about a small place where his own Princess ร‰owyn of Mittelmeer was captured by the darkness and trees in the Asaianic woods.She was later rescued by the Blue Eyed Barbarian who had sworn an oath to protect her for all eternity.


The Blue Eyed Barbarian is on a good way to learn how to make a healthy mind to protect our women and get Princess ร‰owyn together with the others.This is why we have to start our journey with the darkness of our life experiences and we live in happy times of our society as a long lasting relationship and unity.
This is why we donโ€™t need anything else from the world we have experienced.

The Blue Eyed Barbarian has never given up even though some creatures are on a mission to make him feel alienated from others and his emotions were never seen before he started his own life again with a black hole in his heart which is one of the main reasons he is a strong,powerful and relentless barbaric soul when necessary.


These wicked creatures quite similar to Orcs never really managed to make him believe he was a bad man and they didnโ€™t even care about him because they had the most important thing in his life.
He still prepares for a long lasting battle against the future but he never lost his love for the others he said that he would probably get hold of her and then throw her into a deeper level of wisdom from her own beliefs because she has been given the most important thing about her life as a long time forgotten about her own life and experiences with the wisdom of The Blood running trough the body of both of them.
The Blue Eyed still feel good for more women and experiences that we lost in the past.
Latest version is far greater than what it was meant to be…


Only The Blue Eyed Barbarian know the time of life and maybe the few secret people that he tried to seduce not everyone else in his life knew him and then he started to learn how to make a good foundation for the future but only a few good hearted creatures in our society knows that he will always find something to do with his own life and he will probably get hold of someone who knows how to deal with him and then speak with a little more knowing that he is truly trusting.
Some gifts are not to be anything like this one.He gave her a lot more than planned for.She didnโ€™t think anything about what her daughter was doing she wanted to be with The Blood and all day she was just fine with her decision to make her own children and then she wanted her own family and she got her into the same place as her family ancestors who created her life.


In short words ร‰owyn was the first thing The Barbarian was thinking about.

She said the most important words and the Wide Eyed was fascinated by her nature,wisdom and beauty in her surroundings as well as the darkness That holds her mind about the most important thing in life.
Many citizens of Andaramรฉdia would say that ร‰owyn once again woke up The Blue Eyed Barbarian, not as a person but the warrior he is…The Blue Eyed would never acknowledge this fact mainly because he is somewhat shy about his private life and other creatures in general.Until this day this is just another myth that travels amongst the tribes of Andaramรฉdia.
The Wide Eyed & The Blue Eyed Barbarian is often mentioned, if itโ€™s the same person or not is for the readers to figure out…
It will probably be revealed in the coming chapter.

The story will continue…

The 7 Weekdays in Paganism

A beginning of my writing of the weekdays in Norse mythologyStill Under Construction

Friday is the fifth day of the week from Monday. In Norse, the word had a number of variants were the seduction reproduces the goddess names Frigg (Odin’s wife) and Freyja (Frรธya). (friggjardagr, freyju-, frjรก-, fra-, frea-, fre-, freia-, freigia-, freo-, fri-, frรฆ-),

Her symbols are lions and strawberries. In Nordic tradition, Freyja’s name means ‘lady’. Generally speaking, it is Her domain to care for matters of the heart. In mythology, Freyja is stunningly beautiful, a mistress to the gods and She appears driving a chariot pulled by cats.

Happy รพvรกttdagr In Norse, the day was called รพvรกttdagr (‘washing day’, ie ‘washing day’) and Saturday (‘washing day, bathing day’), av laug (‘bath, bathing water, washing water’). Also known as Lauradagr. In Proto-Celtic : *ษธlฤrom , *lแปr- Definition : Floor

Sunnadagr is the first day of week so the logical explanation is as I see it that Laurdagr was the last day so they washed in order to make it look good next week and hail the Sun.

The names of the Romans on weekdays: Lake: Solis dies (day of the sun) Ma: Lunae dies (moon day) Ti: Martis dies (Mars’ day) On: Marcurii dies (Mercury day) To: Jovis dies (Jupiter’s day) Fr: Verenis dies (Venus’ day) Sat: Saturni dies (Saturn’s day)

The ancient Romans had the same 7-day week as the Vikings. The days were named after wandering stars aka gods. Monday, for example, was called dies lunae – or Monday. This is reflected in the Latin languages, e.g. French, to this day. Monday – Monday – Monday.

Tuesday – Tuesday – March’s day (Taurus day in Norse) Wednesday – Wednesday – Mercury Day (Odin’s Day in Norse) Thursday – Thursday – Jupiter’s day (Thursday in Norse) Friday – Friday – Venus’ day (Frรธyas or Frigg’s day) Samedi – Saturday – Saturday’s day (here the Norse differs;

Saturday comes from Saturday – (washing day)

The etymology of Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, are from the Nordic Gods, but Saturday was an exception named after Roman God Saturnus.

n Norse, the day was called sunnudagr, til sunna, sol, after Anglo – Saxon sunnandรฆg or Old Saxon sunnondag, and was in the old opinion the first day of the week. The horses Arvaker and Alsvinn pulled the sun chariot. It is predicted that Sol will be killed by a terrible wolf

Fenrisulven) during Ragnarok. Before that time, she will give birth to a daughter who will continue her mother’s journey across the firmament. In The Older Edda, Sol is described as the wife of Glen (Norse Glenr, “the cloud opening”). As a proper name, Sol appears throughout Norse literature. Researchers of Norse mythology have put forward theories about the evolution of the goddess from a possible root in the Nordic Bronze Age and Urindo-European background.

Sentonaโ€™s Mythological Works

Bravery and heroic deaths aren’t only reserved for men – being ready to die for what you believe in is a sign of a true devotion. Women shouldn’t be meek creatures pretending to be cute, we should be mentally strong and seek strong men. From strong parents comes a strong child.

When Caecina Paetus was ordered to commit suicide for being in a rebellion against emperor Claudius he couldn’t force himself to do so. His wife Arria took the dagger and stabbed herself saying that it didn’t hurt.
“Non dolet, Paete!”

The basis of understanding European mythology is the understanding of the symbols. These symbols which appear throughout the myths are apparent and easily understood because they live through us, through our blood and soil. Mere sight of them awakens blood memory in us

Roman religion was very deeply connected to state and family, the destruction of Republic and its morals opened the doors for the Roman paganism to lose its meaning during the civil wars.

Parallel with the destruction of political institutions of the Republic, the institutions of Roman religions started to lose its meaning and it became an empty shell of what once was. Roman religion for high officials was, almost always, meaningless.

But, from the 3rd century BCE onwards, there were no big changes in the religion system – the triumphs and other rituals were still carried on officially. Many educated Romans studied the religion with scepticism and the religious offices became a step for building a career.

As we see, at the end of the Republic even Roman religion was going through a crisis. It is a result of civilization which degraded the original meaning. What remained of this degraded religion was the religion worshipped in family, an ancestral cult.

The example for this is Gaius Julius Caesar, a non religious person who was chosen for pontifex maximus just so he can build his career. Later he even made coins representing him, something which was before reserved for the images of ancestors, presenting himself as “living god”.

Because of the degradation, the religion of Romans during this time started incorporating other non Roman elements which were popular among the commoners. For example, the Egyptian cult of Isis and Osiris was extremely popular at the time.

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is img_1838.jpg

The cult of Cybele entered Rome during the war with Hannibal, becoming an official cult. During the war with Cimbri, a priest of Cybele from Pesinunt was staying in Rome which made Cybele extremely popular with people. Even Gaius Marius visited Pesinunt after ending the โ€œrevoltโ€.

Egyptian Love Song

“Now my heart is as the sun-scorched South,
Where lie the fields deserted, grey and bare.
Come! And kiss me when I die,
For life, compelling life, is in thy breath;
And at that kiss, though in the tomb I lie,
I will arise and break the bands of Death.”

“I am the serpent, long in years, sleeping and born every day
I am the serpent who is in the ends of the earth
As I sleep, I am born, I am renewed, I am rejuvenated every day.”

Estonia, was named after an ancient Baltic tribe called the Aesti. A fun fact I found, Estonia has one of the highest percentages of blue-eyed people in the world. Here are some Bronze Age graves from there.

In the Mithraeum from Mรฉrida, they also found there a statue of the Goddess Ataegina, a Lusitanian deity equated with Persephone by the Romans (her name literally means “rebirth” btw). Notice the serpents at her feet and the flowers. The symbolism and connections are obvious

Persian Mithra comes from the word for oath “mi-ta-ra” and European Mithras, as it was already said, comes from the Latin word “mitra” meaning conical hat. They are different in their core where Persian Mithra is the version of European Mithra deprived of his symbols and meaning.

The Importance Of Trees

In our tradition trees were seen as habitats of our deceased ancestors. This is because of the belief that we were made from trees, the tree of life which is placenta. Souls of the living, like the souls of the dead, also shared a special connection to trees.

When the child was born the placenta was buried below the tree which was considered as his. This person had a special connection with the said tree because his placenta and tree became one. If one would harm the tree or if the tree got sick it was a bad omen for that person.

All of this implies that people held placenta as precious. Beliefs concerning placenta deal with birth but also with death because souls of the dead were actually said to live on those trees. It has an unbreakable bond with our souls.

This is an ancient belief which held until recently. My aunt told me that the placenta had to be buried below trees which were considered sacred and the tree had to be planted by the father of a child. When the baby is born the placenta is buried below the planted tree

We also had a belief that the tree has to be cut down when the person dies. In the moment when they would put the person in the ground the tree had to be struck down but not entirely, the trunk has to fall on it’s own and the bond shouldn’t be cut off suddenly. My aunt said it’s because when we die our souls aren’t rooted in the ground like trees were when we lived. You have to cut it down because the soul should be able to move freely around the world like a bird, and find the place which it will inhabit while dead.

It’s undeniable that the connection between souls, placenta and trees exist. Those who deny the importance of placenta are damaging to our traditions and they never heard stories like these. They are so deep into scholarly works to see the truth right in front of them.

They will also say that all of this is our projection, that we interpret it like this to fit our narrative. My aunt is very much holding these traditions as sacred and she didn’t read any philosophy or mythology books. These are the traditions passed down for generations to us.
