Fairy Rings:
Also called Elf Ring / Elf Circle are circular growth of mycelium (mushrooms) that are found in grasslands or deep in forests.
Not to get too deep into the biological and botanical breakdowns. However, often, one will notice that a rotting corpse presents great fertilizer for mycelium and moss. This association with the dead coincides with the Fairy ring as the Fae is both the real of the otherworld / dead and what is used to describe the spirits from that world.
Thereby, seeing these rings of mushrooms would coincide with the decomposing that happens, making them entry ways to the Fae.
While some of more Pagan and Folk persuasion see them as omens of good luck, just as many saw them as ominous, dangerous, or with the Christians persuasion, connected to the Devil.
In French, they are called ronds de sorcières ("witches' circles") and in German, Hexenringe ("witches' rings"). Both have been associated with Walpurgis night.
Given that Witches talk to spirits of the dead, this makes sense.

Not hesitating because there might be some new “discovery” that will somehow make Odin, Thor, Freyr, Freya, etc, not exist. They exist, they have existed since the beginning and will continue to exist. You don’t need a linguist, archeologist, or myself to tell you that they do and that they are worthy of worship. The majority of your ancestors knew the Gods existed.
Sure, this doesn’t mean you should cobble together anything you don’t know about from syncretic missing pieces without thought or comparative reasoning. However, adjusting your faith based on whatever new study releases about genetics or what ex-Viking was buried with isn’t useful in the here and now. It doesn’t affect your praising the Gods and having a spiritual connection with them, your ancestors, and spirits in the world today.
I am of the mindset that we need to be active today. All of the major “gaps” have already been filled, and nothing is stopping you from practice today. A practice in the line of your ancestors. Sure, we will make changes over time and adjust to be as accurate or as skillful in worship and practice as possible, but the divine hasn’t changed, nor the method of reaching them.

2. Identifying with more recent generations vs. very ancient Pagans:
This is what I think is the core argument that is made here. Believe me, I’m as big of a nerd as the next guy looking towards Yamnaya, Corded Ware, Hunter Gather DNA and practices from other ancient Europeans and Eurasian groups that might be connected to me or my culture. These ancient ties, especially to our faiths, are very important. They can indeed fill the gaps. But skipping over your more recent ancestry, their achievements, their ideas, and their worldview just because they were Christian is doing them and yourself a disservice. Indeed, the majority of them weren’t Pagan. (though I could debate all day on how Paganism continued both hidden / occult and even overtly, at least culturally and in spirit).
You can still be Pagan and have Christian ancestors. He mentions how if you know these people going back, you know yourself. These family members going back to even the Middle Ages had family members who knew of Pagan or had those tales freshly as a part of their oral or cultural tradition (even if demonized). There is no reason to think that all of the culture and customs from these ancestors are all Christianized to the extent that they aren’t a part of your folk traditions and need to be thrown out. Also, a lot of the information we have for Paganism today came from documents from interested people of these time periods. Not just mystics and revival or romanticism from the 1800s but in illustrations and studies going back to the 1500s. A great example is Historia de Gentibus Septentrionalibus, which depicted Odin, Thor, and Frigga in 1555. Our Gods weren’t unknown to even our Christian ancestors. Writings regarding King Arthur, Merlin, and even the Celtic Gods go back to only around the 1200s. With Celtic manuscripts of the Ulster Cycle goes back to eleventh century.
Even Adam of Bremen, who wrote about active Saxon Pagans in the 11th century as a first-hand account. This brings into question some of the writings of Scandinavian Sagas and poems. Were they really that distant from practicing Pagans? Were they that influenced by Christianity? Is there really that much of a Gap?
3. The Gap:
Lastly, what is discussed is that we shouldn’t view our history as Paganism -> gap - > revivalism. I agree. There isn’t really a need to continue to focus on “revival”. Your faith shouldn’t be revivialism but living breathing, belief, and practice. We have enough to fill in this so-called gap. Between those who have done archeology, genetics, and linguistics studies, and those who have already recreated what we need to practice. There is no longer a gap. Allowing this gap to trap you into a constant state of revival or reconstruction where nothing is good enough until it is 100% peer reviewed and perfected isn’t a living tradition. Instead, it is holding you back. You can enjoy culture, objects, and efforts from those of your family who weren’t Pagan and still be Pagan today without worrying about filling in any gap. You should start practicing and believing now.

This post from Chad Pastoralist is rather insightful and mirrors a lot of my most recent thoughts, so I figured I would expound upon this great topic.
1. Having a family tree that extends beyond 18th and 19th century:
This is a very important topic, and sadly, it is one of the hardest hurdles for many in the West. I am lucky enough to have a family history that goes back a few hundred years. But I will admit there was some loss of records for the genealogy that seems to have started with the always blamed (though for a reason) boomer generation. I had to spend a bit of money and do a lot of diggings asking as old of living relatives as I currently have (grandparents in their 90s) for this information. I have been able to trace my family lines back to at minimum 13th century or older. Historically, many family records weren’t officially kept by any government census for certain regions earlier than this.

The Chad Pastoralist: History

Having a family tree that extends beyond the 18th and 19th centuries helps to establish a sense of continuity back into prehistory, because we garner a sense of where we would be in any given generation. Some modern Pagans choose to ignore their entire heritage from the Middle Ages simply because they don't have a family tree. It's easier to identify with projected, mysterious Pagan ancestors than it is with Christian ancestors from the Middle Ages if one lacks a family tree.
However, if you know your real ancestors—your family lineage from the 1800s going back to the 1500s, 1400s, 1300s, and earlier—you know yourself. It is perfectly acceptable to identify with our culture and ancestors from the colonial era, the medieval era, or the Victorian era and still be a Pagan. It is perfectly acceptable to practice the habits and customs, and to take a liking to our ancestors from any century, and still be a Pagan. For context, historical Germanic Pagans depicted the Gods in the cultural context of their day and were—for the most part—men and women of their time. They were completely connected to their ancestral heritage, knew their ancestors, and had established forms of worship without having to think about it—whereas today, many people don't have that. This is why it is so important to formulate these things.
A notable example comes from Adam of Bremen's 11th-century Gesta Hammaburgensis Ecclesiae Pontificum. In it, Bremen describes the way in which the idols of the Gods were adorned at the temple at Uppsala. Óðinn is described as wearing armour and wielding weapons (which Bremen likens to portrayals of Mars). This shows that historical Pagan Swedes depicted the Gods in armour and with weapons that were modern to them in their day. The same is true for the Lindby idol of Óðinn, the Rällinge statuette of Freyr, and the Eyrarland statuette of Þórr, all of which show the Gods wearing a conical hat that was common across Scandinavia in the Viking Age.
Rather than viewing our history as "Paganism -> gap -> revivalism," we should be viewing our history as a continuum. The Gods have always existed, and the functional structure and nature of the universe has not changed. Objective reality (i.e., that the Gods exist) does not—and therefore has not—changed due to shifts in consensus or changes in cultural context. We should strive to live in the now and cultivate the revitalisation of Paganism: enjoy and appreciate all of our history and all of our ancestors; use the sources on Germanic Paganism as a framework to establish our own authentic forms of worship; form real groups; and revitalise our worship of the Gods and the veneration of our ancestors.

“While the sacrifice of a slain animal is more sociable, more universal, and is usually offered by the collective nation or community; fruit or flowers, milk or honey is what any household, or even an individual may give. These Fruit-offerings are therefore more solitary and paltry; history scarcely mentions them, but they have lingered the longer and more steadfastly in popular customs.
“When the husbandman cuts his corn, he leaves a clump of ears standing for the god who blessed the harvest, and he adorns it with ribbons. To this day, at a fruit-gathering in Holstein, five or six apples are left hanging on each tree, and then the next crop will thrive.”

The Serbian slava is literally an offering that the christians modified for worship of the saints. It's a sacrifice to a saint in the family in the christian version.
In the original version, it is a special offering to the Gods or just to the ancestors or both.
Сербская слава - буквальное жертвоприношение, которое перестроено для праведнков. В христианской версии это для праведника в семье.
В первоначальной версии-это жертвоприношение предкам или богам или об.

This image here is usually thought of as the god Frey (Frea). He is seen as a Solar-Phallic God of Virility and Fertility, as well as the Creative Will - in this role, for he has others. We call him Ingwe since he is the Divine Ancestor of the Ingefolk. Woden is also shown (on Sleipnir) as a Solar-Phallic God, and this image is often found on Bronze Age carvings. Ingwe is also linked to the Stag's Horns, so may also have been a Stag-God (like Herne the Hunter). Woden is also a 'Horned God' as seen on many bracteates and coins. Either of these could have been seen as 'Old Hornie' of medieval times, this being a very clever play-on-words.

While some are hating it, I think actually it's hilarious.
These studios produced a goyslop movie with one trick pony Jack Black, shitty CGI, and a slap together shitty story.
Then all of their Minecraft fans, who are between 10-35ish boys / men, want to go meme it up and be stupid.
The only reason they are making money is probably because of this. Their desire to unify and take part in some crazy energetic movement about something they culturally love.
A game about building, destroying, survival, and creativity.
Regardless of the kids and females who play it, it's the embodiment of masculine spirit.
Now those boys being actual horrible NUISANCE is a bit much if they are assault others ...but the Kóryos aged men are all in the cult of gaming and edgy, silly, meme rebellion instead of where they should be and it's coming back to bite those who kept them placated and at bay.
I say chicken jockey and meme away.
Sometimes, such an expression is the rebellion that is needed.
Or maybe it is just a distraction.

“I've always been attracted to the Nietzschean idea of perfection, and so I began trying to perfect my body. I bought Arnold Schwarzenegger's ENCYCLOPEDIA OF MODERN BODYBUILDING and started studying. Lifting weights is just lifting weights, but bodybuilding is about sculpting the body. Nutrition is essential, and though I'd like to be eating candy and cake, it immediately settles on my hips. Unfortunately, when I'm on the road I only get to work out a few times weekly, but when I'm at home with my weights and machines I work out four or five times a week.” - Danzig

Fairy Rings:
Also called Elf Ring / Elf Circle are circular growth of mycelium (mushrooms) that are found in grasslands or deep in forests.
Not to get too deep into the biological and botanical breakdowns. However, often, one will notice that a rotting corpse presents great fertilizer for mycelium and moss. This association with the dead coincides with the Fairy ring as the Fae is both the real of the otherworld / dead and what is used to describe the spirits from that world.
Thereby, seeing these rings of mushrooms would coincide with the decomposing that happens, making them entry ways to the Fae.
While some of more Pagan and Folk persuasion see them as omens of good luck, just as many saw them as ominous, dangerous, or with the Christians persuasion, connected to the Devil.
In French, they are called ronds de sorcières ("witches' circles") and in German, Hexenringe ("witches' rings"). Both have been associated with Walpurgis night.
Given that Witches talk to spirits of the dead, this makes sense.

While there are certain outlines of sacrifices in the greater Eddic and Saga sources. By no means is there anything that forces one to act like a caricature of the "Satan" that Abrahamics desperately need you to be.
It's funny how their faith is full of human sacrifices, but it's their primary focus against Pagans. Maybe it's projection ?

Shilling aside, there are plenty of guides on how to do this, but putting fear aside and being active is the first step.
It's a risk, but everything worth having is risky. Reestablishing brotherhoods is the largest leap back into where we should be.
I discuss how to establish and maintain one in my newest book.

"Germanic kingship is modelled on kon, the first king and Woden, the progenitor of all true kings. The germanic word king is related to “kin” and implies a leader of a specific ethnos. If jesus was a king, he was king of the jews only"

Wudufugol

We would like to announce the formation of The Wudufugol, a collection of heathen hiking clubs spreading across the United States and Canada.
We felt a need to form this club due to the perceived lack of any other group that shares our values and passions for deep ecology, naturalism, the pursuit of an active lifestyle and most importantly to authentically worship the holy Gods of our Forefathers.
Our name is a word play of the famous Wandervogel, as we wanted to honor that generation of forest pilgrims.
Wudufugol is old English for “forest bird” particularly a bird of prey.
This channel will both document our pilgrimages into nature, our heathen siðr, as well as being a medium to network with like minded Heathens as we see fit.
🌲 Hail to the Wudufugol 🌲
