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 it’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 I’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? It’s not that hard to understand if explained properly.
They spoke,thought,behaved in a totally different way back then so it’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 don’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 don’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 that’s all you need.
Mark my words and good luck!
SHTF soon enough…

“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 children´s fairytales but if you read those myths and fairytales once more you will hopefully see how they have (mis)placedChristianity 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 verify´or 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.
A beginning of my writing of the weekdays in Norse mythology – Still 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 (Frøya). (friggjardagr, freyju-, frjá-, fra-, frea-, fre-, freia-, freigia-, freo-, fri-, fræ-),
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 þváttdagr In Norse, the day was called þváttdagr (‘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 : *ɸlārom , *lọr- 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 (Frøyas 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 sunnandæg 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.
The dark,cruel,greedy orcs are approaching illegally via the baltic to the mediterranean by boats futuristic speaking but the Oceanic Genocide Solution O.G.S. driven by Mr.A & Mrs.M have established well now and organised, trained and prepared young and promising sorcerers,wizards,warlocks and advanced gear for future warriors,sorcerers,shield maidens and more..
Our once free world has been turned into an industrial slave world built solely on money and keeping the wealthiest wealthy.
Our culture,heritage and traditions have been forgotten by most due to our enemies degenerate tactics that some of us luckily saw right though ages ago and started fighting back with words,letters and all we could back then.
Thus we proudly put our uniforms on again to fight for our independence and liberty as a race and to regain and reclaim Opus Era The 3rd to whom it belongs. The people willing to fight for it by any means necessary.
Join us if you can, lend us your sword fight with us if you dare. If you try to stop us we we’ll give you hell from witch we come.
Our Germanic tribes are in danger of disappearing if we don’t fight and change our minds into a new collective understanding.
Mrs.M are the most vicious and effective shield maiden and with her extremely good eye for new strategies of warfare,tactics and a merciless sorceress and it’s not hard to understand why Mr.A fell for her and put her in the top league but it has to be said that without each other they would not smile so confident cruising the mediterranean together alongside with the 1XL-35 Crew consisting of highly important top trained soldiers selected for the mission as The Second Division soldiers even though The Blonde Beasts – T.B.B. in charge are quite sure they have a waterproof tactic that will make it perfectly underground.
They have established a well known reputation through their huge tunnels of networks operating offline and apart from the modern servers and “see through society” we live in and due to security reasons their advanced communication methods will not yet if never be revealed.
The fierce and cold headed Mr.A calculated the details for years and due to the “routines” the dark orcs spoiled their tactics it felt more like a “mice in the trap” strategy. Yes, easy but why go hard when the worst masses did their own job in “disappearing” TBB was a kind and gentle couple.
As they so calmly say : We just did our duty for the elves, and survival of all the other tribes and borders that is our common domain and responsibility so we all can return to the peaceful state that is Opus Era The 3rd. We create Oceanic Dream Structures = Harmony.
Mr.A & Mrs.M are deeply rooted,kind gentle,polite and a loving and caring unity. When their minds first connected it was like a massive weapon unfolding and forged together in front of the S-Ship with a young beautiful alluring woman in front and a enormous angelic like figure with gigantic raven claws that gently hold the alluring woman steady and protect her belly with the claws embracing her pale body like an ornament. The woman in front of the S-Ship is said to be Mr.A’s guardian angel according to the legends which in a beautiful way surrounds him and together it’s like a sculpture of two peoples bodies tied together and agile as a weapon with shiny blue parts and shiny gold parts fitting perfectly to the light green color of the ocean. A&M use the colors red,green,blue,yellow,gold and silver to reflect certain combat techniques but may as well be private codes among themselves as a pair, for they are either in one mode or another and therefore they are now leaders of this operation to save the elves.
It is important to remember that a joyful thing of love quickly turns into a bestial war monster with steel control and a discipline that is unshakable because they have all sworn an oath. With life as an effort for the lives of our people and we are of the people. Our souls meet, our souls become bound together and therefore eternal. I took her soul and gave her eternal life because she showed me the way to the light when my soul was in darkness and tears were still flowing..
We found something that was so real, we used it to fight together, extract what belongs to our elves and the Opus Era The 3rd and value it as if it were a treasure. There will be times ahead that in relation to what you got an insight into will unfold into something we have only seen glimpses of so far. We work hard when we can to insure our dear elves. We have taken three steps ahead for a long time now, the plans for the first match are clear, but we only know the outcome in theory.
The rules are simple, you are with the end or morale will fall and we will not fail because of feeble minded individuals. we have worked so hard for this and put a lot of other things on the shelf to get a waterproof plan and there are many words of great importance for the entire blueprint we have put directly above here.
Remember that what you see or think at first or last glance is not necessarily the right one. Rather, try to understand the whole of how it unfolds. If you understand that then you understand a little bit of where I want to be and will be a beautiful day with my future sorceress until death separates us further and further into the light and ultimately into the darkness to build us up and rest with our strength which grows and an unforgettable union of two souls who have longed for each other longer than they can count suns or moons.
With life as an effort for the lives of our people and we are of the people.
Leave the old in ruins, create the beginning,keep order, be free like a bird in a community that flourishes around our beautiful land but never forget which world we came from and why we destroyed it.
If we manage this, we will manage what is happening in the air far, far in the future when we have been born again once again and out of count. I know who will still be there, I have seen it myself because my creator is not happy with the development the world has taken.
He fought for our freedom. Now we must fight for the freedom of our children and grandchildren’s future. If you have started on this you will not stop because then you understand why you live even if at times it is harder the reward is really worth it.
I could not have dreamed of a better helper, wife? What would happen between the two of us in the future. She must choose for herself. In this adventure she is Mrs.M but the future is uncertain so who knows. What I do know is that we are fighting for our elves because we area ll part of the tribe we come from and that is the only thing that matters for now.
We are of the people and the people are us.
You just read an introduction to my never ending fantasy series. It’s many more characters,worlds etc..
The first and most important storyline is close to finished but need some polishing. I decided to include the cruel dark orcs, they are greedy, rude and do not get along well with the elves.
This story is based on pure fiction & fantasy and it’s possible some characters names etc will change in the future as well as the story line of course.
First a local myth about the opening of the season of flowers and fruit formerly was celebrated throughout Europe, and still is.. The celebration marks that WE leave Winter behind to welcome Summer,fruits & flowers and as a symbolic thing it’s a tradition to
jump over the bonfire and make a wish/get rid of the darkness, to be
May Queen “girl or young woman crowned with flowers and honoured as queen at the gamos held on May Day. The witches blow out the candles and arrange a dance at a special mountain because it’s often foggy..
Witches dancing & celebrating somewhere secret.
around it so they are hidden like they want to be when they move like shadows around the fire and under the moon this tradition is still present, but it has always been a mysticism to this aknce since I was a kid when I was told about these witches and the myth about capturing..
..The May Queen and marry her as a competition for the men who has to run after her.
She goes first then he moves quicky trying to find her as my uncle told decades ago.
I’m pretty sure he added some extra to make it exciting for us and we were indeed.
The May Queen Crowned with flowers.
There are various ways to celebrate this and some details may change from place to place but the essence is the same.
In some Pagan belief systems, typically those that follow
a Wiccan tradition, the focus of Beltane is on the battle between
the May Queen and the Queen of Winter. The May Queen is Flora, the goddess of the flowers, and the young blushing bride, and the princess of the Fae. She is Lady Marian in the Robin Hood tales, and Guinevere in the Arthurian cycle. She is the embodiment of the Maiden, of mother earth in all of her fertile glory.
Locally it’s a tradition that the kids take a bath the 1st of May to welcome the Summer.
I was also told an Irish tradition, On May first women get up at dawn and wash their faces in the dew was supposed to keep your skin beautiful. Maybe there is a connection with us bathing 1st of May?
It’s unsure if some traditions are just a family tradition or spread wider. If you know anything I could add. Feel free to contact me.
in the Arthurian cycle. She is the embodiment of the Maiden, of mother earth in all of her fertile glory.
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.
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 “revolt”.
PYTHAGORAS
“The belief of Pythagoras prevails among the Gauls, that the souls of men are immortal and that after a prescribed number of years they commence upon a new life, the soul entering into another body”
Diodorus Siculus
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 Mérida, 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 obviousPersian 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. 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.
I’ll start reading a book abkout Erling Skjalgsson – Rygenes Konge who were one of the late kings in Norway before the (Christians) arrived. He later fought Olav Haraldsson,later known as “Olav The Holy One” in the battle of Soknasundet year 1028.
The picture shows Astrid with Olav Tryggvason on her arm, escaping from the father in fear of being killed by Harald Graafjells men who recently killed her husband Tryggve Olavson. She gave birth on an islet, later she had to escape from her home and seek shelter at Obrestad.
Childbirth is a difficult & dangerous step, but each time your daughter asks you about it, you must answer that it will be fine, that we are made for it. The way the mother talks about childbirth is decisive in the vision of childbirth of the daughter, & therefore of its outcome.
About Childbirth, I recommend the books by Michel Odent (many in English), and this film (which is not perfect at all, but interesting):
Patrimonialis Weistum
