Editing a recent Forn Sed Post. →
A very big part of the Forn Sed Tumblog is spreading historically correct information, and fighting against preconceptions surrounding Heathens. Some stereotypes or preconceived notions (sometimes propegated by those identifying as Heathen, sometimes not) which are incorrect and which directly contradict our goals:
All Heathens are racists or purists.

Since you don't have an ask page:
Transgendered is not the correct word. Grammatically speaking, it doesn’t make any sense. I appreciate the Queer shout-out in the post nonetheless. Since we’re on the subject of wording (please don’t block me), “hijacked by retards” is just plain ableist. If you’re going to try and make a post debunking myths about Heathens, then perhaps propegating the idea...

Esoterica: Yet another church pamphlet →
westernmystery:
I think EVERY religion should knock on doors and spread pamphlets until this gets prohibited for Christians (since they dont get “no”).
We should ALL, including “The Church of Satan,” insist that everyone join us, agree with us and reshape their entire culture acording to our ways.
Imagine…

The orthoprax mindset
I might be feeding you out of some self interest.
I might be giving you food by mistake.
Perhaps i simply dont like that dish myself.
Regardless of which…..your stomach gets as full as if i harboured some altruistic goal.
Would you prefer someone who lectures you or steals your freedom out of “love” and “for your own good” or someone who gives you a blanket when...

I just performed a blot to the wights. Felt nice!
The Vaettir (Wights) after all look over the territory in witch we live (farm or whatever may be the case) on a very day to day basis.
They deserve to be acknowledged!

Esoterica: Same, same...but different →
westernmystery:
If one discusses politics one expects a communist and a conservative to have different opinions ,built on different ideologies.
Yet when people discuss religion, even those that consider themselves tolerant and learned, they do so as if the ontology and ethics of their religion applied to…

The Custom
My religion and the rest of my culture are baked together.
It is orthoprax and thus:
Chopping wood
Prayer
The way i behave towards you
are just as much part of the custom. Neither requires faith or belief beyond what it takes to simply do it. There is no difference between “spiritual” and “mundane”.

let the clouds wander over you
They’re too busy
Chasing birds
Running with the wind
to know how much
Their presence unnerves you
Awed too much
By the beauty they shelter you

Sagaholm Bronze Age Cairn
This is almost right where i live.
Sagaholm is Bronze Age cairn located just south of Jönköping, Sweden.
The site had a large barrow from the early Nordic Bronze Age. It had a circle of slabs of sandstone, probably as many as 100. The Bronze Age graves were built in the form of a mound. Around 1,500 years after the grave was built, another four smaller graves were constructed at the foot of...
