About Heathenism 2

Heathenism, a religion of old
Honoring the Norse gods and goddesses bold
The same deities the Vikings did adore
A path open to those who feel a connection to their lore

To follow Heathenism, one must seek within
For the mind knows what is nearest the heart
Each person their own judge, their own kin
Finding their own way to worship and chart

The gods and goddesses of Norse lore
Are many and varied, each with their own domain
Odin, Thor, and Freya are just a few more
And each person may choose their own deity to claim

Heathenism is a path of individuality
No one way to practice, no set beliefs to follow
But all who walk this path are united in their loyalty
To the ancient gods and goddesses, their stories and their hollow

So if you feel a connection to the gods of old
If the stories of the Vikings speak to your soul
Then join the ranks of Heathens, a path to behold
And let the gods and goddesses guide you on your journey whole.

Wulpurgis Lore 5

The shifting of energies,
The border state of time,
Now is the season of change,
Winter fading, summer yet to come.

Witches and wizards, they know this well,
For they live in the border states,
Their magick born of transformation,
Their focus on change and its mysteries.

Seidh is the magick of Norse witches,
Born of trance and altered states,
Border states of consciousness,
Where spells and rituals take place.

Battle trance, a state of life or death,
A time of powerful magick and spells,
Fight or flight, the border of life,
A time to call upon the gods and goddesses.

Sex, a border state of passion and fire,
A tool of seidh and magickal power,
Freyja, goddess of lust and desire,
Forever in the border state of arousal.

Fire, the energy of change and transformation,
Ice, the state of static consciousness,
Mortal humans, ice, bound by their limitations,
Gods and goddesses, fire, the embodiment of life force.

By attuning to the natural cycles of the seasons,
We increase our own life force and fire,
Becoming more like the gods and goddesses,
Adding divinity to our soul.

Negativity, limited thinking,
Bad energies and unhealthy habits,
These things drag us down,
Sucking the life force from our souls.

But through regular spiritual practice,
We can maintain a higher state of consciousness,
Closer to the gods and goddesses,
And tap into the power of the border states.

So let us embrace the season of change,
And embrace the border states of consciousness,
For it is in these states that magick is born,
And we can tap into the divine.
