In the Beginning.......

 

There is, it seems, an Icelandic word ginn which refers to a 'Divine Principle', in the sense that this is unnamable and unknowable. In Iranian Lore this is AHU, a word meaning 'It Is'. There is a Sanskrit term 'TAT' which means 'that', which appears to be the same. Then we have the Old Testament 'I Am That I Am' which was transferred to the Demiurge but originally meant the 'Unknowable' - that which exists in the No-Thing-Ness. (*)

The word Ginn-Unga- Gap would not refer to the above, since 'unga' or 'inga' means 'offspring of' or 'son of'. The word 'Gap' means 'to yawn' or 'to gape', as well as 'chasm' or 'wide'. Ginn-Unga-Gap arises out of the Ginn (Unknowable), and from this arises the Twin Principle of Opposites - Ice and Fire. 

0 - 1 - 2 

The English word 'Beginning' has exactly the same meaning, since the prefix 'be' was not there originally, thus Ginn-ing which is Ginn-unga. The inference of the idea of 'gaping', 'chasm' or 'gap' is that of being 'wide' and we can see here a link between these ideas and the Ur-Rune. Again, in Iranian Lore we find the term uru meaning 'wide', and another idea that springs out of Ur is 'out of'. Ginn-unga-gap springs out of The Void. AHU (Iran) is the same as ASU which means 'spirit' or 'great spirit'. 

The following root-words apply to what has just be said -

IE Root *ghas- To yawn, to gape.

OE ginan, ginian, geoniam - To yawn.

ON gap - chasm.

ON gapa - to open the mouth. (**)

(*) There is a strange thing here in that in the spring of 1997 when I went through a profound mystical experience and Initiation at one stage I glimpsed into an unknown area, and it seemed that the ultimate rulership lay in a kind of Cosmic Joker. This figure seemed to be laughing, so maybe the ultimate reality is a joke played upon itself? I don't know. There is also an Icelandic word ginna which means 'to fool'. We have to also consider that when everything gets to the stage when mankind is unable to put right what has gone wrong, there is an appearance of a god-force, and this is linked to The Fool. We see this in the figure of Parsifal. 

(**) When looking at these ideas the 'Opening of the Mouth' comes into mind, and the swallowing of Woden by the Jaws of the Fenris Wolf. 

'The Joker' is a playing card that is not part of the card-sequence, and is used at any time of the game; it is thus the Card of Chance. It is this chance that can decide the outcome of the game. This is the Harlequin or Herla-Kin if we take the idea of Kris Kershaw. 

Ginn-unga-gap is thus the 'Magically-charged Void' that arises from the Unknowable - Ginn. We have the following root-words that relate to these ideas at this level -

IE Root *gheu- 

To pour, To pour a libation.

To yawn, to gape.

To call, to invoke.

From this root we get the following -

OE gama - 'jaw'.

Variant form *ghau- chaos (Greek).

OE god.

OE gydig, gidig - giddy ("possessed by a god').

Extended form *gheud- gut (intestine).

If we link these ideas together we get - Void-Chaos-Gaping Chasm-God. With these come the means to link with 'god' or 'the gods' - invoke, an offering - and then the result by going 'giddy' as the 'god' takes possession of the Initiate. All through my younger years I had 'giddy' spells which accompanied a vision of a very ancient book. After I started to study the esoteric these stopped. 

Ginn-unga-gap (0) out of which arises 'The One' - The All-Father, Ilu (Sumer-Babylon) Iluvater/Eru (Tolkien), and the ALU-Father who is HALU (Whole, The One), the All-Pervasive Force (Woden), (1). From 'The One' springs the Ice (North) and Fire (South), the polar-opposites, thus the conflict of opposites (2). 0 - 1 - 2. The Void is AFFA (1-6 : 6-1) AF showing the Unknowable, and FA being the Manifested One (All-Father). This was whispered to me in a meditation decades ago, accompanied by a strong 'humming' sound. 

In Gylfaginning we find that the highest and most ancient of the gods is All-Father, who has 12 names, and who lives throughout all ages. 

Ice and Fire - as these interact they produce a 'mist' (Ur) out of which arises Audhumla - the Cosmic Cow or Cosmic Mother - and Ymir (The Primal Giant). 

Audhumla is represented by the Feoh-Rune which shows the 'horns' of a cow, though the name Audhumla can mean 'hornless cow' ('humala'). The root audr can also mean 'fate' and 'desolate'/'desert', and these two may hint at another part of her role. She is certainly the loving Mother of the Gods, the nourisher, the nurturer, who gives her 'riches' (audr = 'riches'). The idea of 'desolate' may be a hint that the Cosmic Mother brings breaks the 'desolation' of the 'Yawning Gap'; and 'fate', well we'll look at this later, since it brings Wyrd into play now.

Now, we know that Audhumla appeared either before or after Ymir, since Ymir fed from her milk. Ymir is the Primal Giant whose name has said to mean 'Twin', and who is the Yima of Persia and Yama of India. Since we find the Rune of Ymir in the Yr-Rune, which itself is a variant of the Ur-Rune, then Audhumla is Feoh and Ymir is Ur, presumably in this order. 

Ymir is also named Aur-Gal-Mer or Or-Gal-Mer, a name meaning 'The Primal Sound', and this is YM ('oom'), the AUM/OM of the Hindus. The Yr-Rune shows an Ur-Rune within which is the Irminsul; it means 'Yew-Bow' which is important. The Yew-Bow and Arrow is symbolic here of the 'hum' produced by the bow-string and also the 'hum' sound of the arrow in flight. Again, we have clues as to this meaning sound and hence sound waves. We read in the Eddas - "no soil, no sea, no waves; earth was not, nor heaven..." 'No waves' is an unnecessary use here, since this is covered by 'no sea', so this suggests a hidden meaning of 'waves' as in 'vibrations'. YM is the vibration of Matter and the Physical Universe is created by 'dismembering' YM(ir); every part of the physical universe is made up of the YM-Sound. (We should note the word 'humla' or 'humula', and the link to 'humble'; the sound 'hummmmm' links to Ym and Om. 'Humble' also implies 'earth' and thus 'matter'.) 

I will call this the 'Vibration of Matter' which is perhaps nearer to its true sense, and makes it easier to understand what follows. "A son and a daughter are said to have been born together under the rhimthurse's arm; foot begat with foot the strange-headed son of the wise giant." (Vafthrudnersmal). Both a son and daughter are born from the armpit of Ymir (Sweat-Born), and these we shall call the High-Born Joten. One foot begat with the other a 'strange-headed son', and thus are born the Low-Born Joten. The High-Born Joten are a Noble Race, the Low-Born Joten are a most Ignoble Race, strange-headed and monstrous. The 'strange-headed son' is Thrudgelmir, who is saved from 'The Flood'. 

For 3 days Audhumla licks the salt-blocks and the head of Buri appeared, and then the body and legs of Buri followed. This is the first of the Gods, and he has a son For who marries Bestla (daughter of Bolthorn, thought to be Mimir), and from their union are begot Woden (Inspiration), Will (The Will) and Weoh (The Sacred). These are also Woden, Heonir and Lodur. Woden, Hoenir and Lodur then create the First Man (Ask) and First Woman (Embla) from two trees. This Man is created with a link between the Earth (Roots) and the Divine (Branches). 

The Ur-Rune itself suggests 'wilderness', since the Aurochs roamed the wild heaths of Europe. It is the collective 'our', and applies to the 'wide' (URU) and that which is 'primal' or 'first'. At some stage the Wyrd Sisters appeared as Three Giant-Maids, representing 'Time' (Past-Present-Future) and they laid down the Ur-Lag) Primal Laws or Primal Layers which are the 'Warp' of their weaving, the vertical threads that are unchangeable. Wyrd is represented by the horizontal threads which can be changed, and are 'constant change that forever remains the same'. Wyrd is forever 'Becoming', and subject to 'worth', i.e. one's past actions decide what is to come. Wyrd is the Weft or Woof. Friedrich Nietzsche's idea of the Eternal Recurrence comes into play here, since the material universe is not finite, so everything that happens does so again and again. Wyrd sets down the Ur-Lag, the Archetypal Myths, and these are played out again and again, but subject to changes due to the Cosmic Cycles. Ur-Lag is also connected to the Dutch word oorlog meaning 'war' or 'conflict', this being the Conflict of Opposites that is set down in the Primal Laws. Man and the Gods are subject to the Will of Wyrd. 

The Awakening!

 

I looked to the East, I looked to the West, I looked to the North, I looked to the South - Darkness! Nothing but Darkness! A wasteland, that is what they have made of our Earth - a wasteland! Black as a pit the darkness covers all, nothing but darkness! Life was barren, the land was barren, everything covered in the Darkness of Light. I stood silent, silent in a world of darkness, silent in a world in the throes of pain and decay, a world that is dying. Where are the sounds of life? Where is the Light of Day? Where is the Light of the Sun? Nothing........................

I stood silent...A mist arose in this darkness, neither as dark as night, nor as light as day...a mystical mist covering the land, blurring the image of decay and death...change! A veil seems to arise, and I am no longer in the world of darkness, but in a brighter world, standing before the mighty Gates of Valhalla. Slowly, the gates begin to open, slowly, slowly; at the head of an Army of Light, golden armour reflected by the Golden Sun, rode Woden on his Eight-Legged Steed. Spears glisten in the Sun, Swords glisten in the Sun, Shields held high, reflecting the Glorious Light of the Sun. All is Light! All is Light! 

Marching, marching out of Valhalla, the Great Army of Light, Woden riding at the head, Ragnar Lodbrok at his side - Gods and Divine Heroes side by side in this vast Army of Light. This world shone bright and the Darkness trembled, trembled in fear as the Gods and Heroes marched towards them. Giants, Monsters, Ogres, unformed Chaos, and the Dragons of Night. Swords against Shields, the Forces of Light marched, marched, marched; the Light blazed like a thousand suns, the Darkness trembled! 

The mist arose again, and I found myself back in the World of Darkness, back in the barren land ruled by Darkness and Chaos. Black as a pit, black as the Night, all life cowering before the Darkness, and yet there were 'solitaries', 'Lone Wolves' who feared not the darkness, who feared not the Forces of Evil, who stood tall and proud in a simple task - to do their duty! Honoured they the Gods! Honoured they the Goddesses! Honoured they the Forefathers! There seemed to me to be a glimmer of light in this Ocean of Darkness - HOPE. 

I see, I feel, I hear the Call of the Noble Wolf! I am not alone! There is Light in this Sea of Darkness, I know there is Light in this Sea of Darkness. I hear a sound, the sound of Silence; broken by the feint sound of buzzing, like a swarm of bees, buzzing, buzzing - humming, humming from the skies! The Darkness is broken by whirling Discs of Light, breaking through the barrier of the worlds, swarming like bees into the World of Darkness. S - W - A - R. 

S - W - A - R The Sun? The Sword? Pinpoints of Light, spring up hither and thither across the Dark World, pinpoints of Light. Like burning embers, fanned by the movement of air, pinpoints of Light in a Sea of Darkness. The Awakening! The Quickening! Arise - the Awakened Ones! A glimmer of Light, a glimmer of HOPE, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine....endless points of shimmering light as the Discs of Light pulsated sending out beams to the World of Darkness. The Awakened Ones - those solitaries in a world of darkness - gathered together to form the Army of Light. Black-Clad Warriors of Light, their weapons glinting in the Light of the Morning Star, the Light of Freya that had arisen to show the way through the Darkness of Night - HOPE is kindled!

Then the Darkness was broken from above by a Flaming Star, a Flaming Spear hurled across the heavens, blazing across the dark skies towards the Earth. The Spear of Woden! The Spear of Destiny! Or was it a Flaming Sword? Who knows? A Silent God stood waiting, grasped the Flaming Spear, or the Flaming Sword, and mounted his White Horse, grabbing his Dragon-Shield, and rode towards the Black-Clad Host, galloping past the host to take the lead in front of the Armies of Light. Wid-Ar the Silent had become Wid-Ar the Avenger! The Avenging God - the Bringer of Justice. The Golden Armour of Wid-Ar, Son of Woden, shone like a thousand suns - the Light of the Sun, the Light of the Son. 

A wild, rough army of monsters, ogres, misfits and miscreants stood before the, dancing up and down like wild orcs, screaming for blood, screaming for death and destruction. Thence the Army of Darkness faced the Army of Light, a terrifying mass of Chaos and Disorder....Terrifying weapons of mass-destruction were unleashed, Wid-Ar wielded the Flaming Sword, burning everything as it send flames of destruction in every direction. Everything burns! Everything burns!....

All is now the violet glow of the Black Sun, the Source of the Light, the Power of the Light, the Sun behind the Sun - the Black Sun. Pulsating with the Violet Light, the Source of the Power of the Gods. Silence reigned once more as my whole concentration becomes focussed on the Violet Light of the Black Sun. All was engulfed in the Light of the Black Sun. 

The rushing waters engulfed this world in flames, washing away the Fires of Surt, cleansing the world of the Evil Powers. This Earth was gone, no more, it had run its course. From the waters arose a New Earth, and a New Man, and the Golden Tablets where found in the green green grass of this green-land. This was a new world, and yet it seemed so familiar, so old, so ancient, as if the Cycle of the Ages had brought it to life again - to a New Life. Thus came to be the New Man, the Sun-Man, the God-Man - The Superman. 

This is not the end...it is merely a new beginning...someone, somewhere in the future will begin to tell the tale of the Seventh Race of Man - the Spiritual Man. 

The Aryan Krist Archetype

 

It was not until some 300 years after the so-called 'Death of Christ' that Judaeo-Christianity finally took a firmer grip on this new religion. Before this time there were many sects which were Christian (Judaic) or Kristian (Aryan), some of the latter being those who opposed the idea of Christianity where Christ is the son of the 'God' of the Old Testament. What seems the most important point to me is that the Aryan Archetype of Krist is what matters, not the historical account of an individual in the Middle-East. It is the Aryan Archetype that was taken and distorted, and this is of a Hanged God, which applied to such gods as Woden, Baeldaeg and Dionysus. 

Much of the work of the Armanen in Germany was based around the idea of an 'Aryan Krist', but I certainly do not go along with everything they said, though I do not actually reject some aspects since I have not studied these aspects enough to make a decision. Nor do I go along with everything that Miguel Serrano says, nor Aelfric Avery, though there are many aspects of their work that I do believe to be useful. My work in Woden's Folk ran parallel to this, and I only became aware of the work of Miguel Serrano in 2012 when Franz Berg sent me a copy of Manu - The Man to Come. He did so because the work of WF was becoming known and that it ran parallel, but was based around Northern Europe rather than South America. 

Indeed, one individual in the US implied that this work was a plagiary of that of Miguel Serrano, until I explained how it had been developed since the 1980s, and came to the same conclusions through a far different route. He did apologise, which I explained was not necessary since it was an easy thing to get wrong, since the routes are different but the conclusions so similar. But the route that I took on the 'Aryan Krist' did not come until later, even though this was an important part of the work of the Armanen. I will explain that now.

The point at which it became clear to me that the Aryan Krist was of importance, and was not through reading the works of others, nor via online knowledge, but through a sudden understanding of a piece found in the Norwegian Rune-Poem -

Hagall is coldest of corns,

Krist shaped

The former homelands.

Through further study it also became clear that our own English God - Ingwe - was associated with the concept of 'To Anoint', which is the root of the Greek word 'Krist'. This is just one of his aspects, but since I see Ingwe as the Vedic Agni, it is an important one. One of the Myths of Agni describes the 'Birth of Krist'. This is not even an 'alien' concept to the Hindus, since their Krishna is the Krist Archetype whose myth contains similar concepts, such as the Virgin Birth and the 'Slaying of the Innocents'. As even the Judaeo-Christians admitted, their 'Christ' was known hundreds of years before there was a historical figure, if there ever was one. 

Hail is the whitest of grains,

from heaven's height it whirls,

winds blow it, it becomes water after.

Old English Rune-Poem.

Hail turns to Water. Water is the 'messenger-carrier' that holds the 'memory', which it has been proven to do by scientists. Blood is the 'water' that pulses around the human body, and in this is carried the Blood-Memory. This itself is associated with Ingwe whose Ing-Rune is the Rune of the Blood - the Rune of the DNA Spiral. This is where Guido von List came to use the Hex-Crystal (Krist-All) as the basis for the Armanen Runes - this appeared to him whilst he took on the Wotan Archetype and recovered the Ancient Runes for the era prior to the coming of the Wotan Avatar. 

Some years ago I watched a YouTube video on a Christian Priest who had got to a point where he questioned his own faith. At this point of his life he took up the study of pagan and heathen religions, and after doing so he discovered that his own religion - Christianity - was firmly based upon these pagan religions. He did not give up his faith, but merely used his new knowledge to affirm it, and I assume that his teachings then took this paganism into account, hopefully helping others to see the roots of this distorted religion.

From the very start of Woden's Folk I emphasised that we were not created to revive any form of religion of the past, but to create a new Folk-Religion that was suited to the era in which we live. This era is the Age of Ing which is the transition-period between the Age of Pisces and Age of Aquarius, and was conceived in 1999, the last year of the old millennia. WF was created in order to prepare the way for The Coming Man and this requires a different approach than other pagan and heathen groups, most of whom do not recognise this concept, nor recognise the Wotan Archetype that came before to prepare the way at that time. 

It should be noted that the term "Krist' does not come into any of our rites nor into the work of the WF-C. This is the work of Esoteric Wodenism which is to study all aspects of the esoteric side in order to be able to create this new Folk-Religion here in England. In both my new book (which has gone to the publisher) and the latest Sword of Wayland (which has gone to the printer) I have gone into details of the changes that I have made, and explained in full detail how the work of Woden's Folk at an esoteric level is different from Northern Heathenism because it has to follow a different route. This is so because the world-age is changing and a transmutation is taking place at a very deep level - Woden-Krist (The Hanged God) is transmuting into Woden-Krist (The Warrior-God). It is through 'The Son' - Wid-Ar - that this transmutation takes place. 

"Further forward few can see now

than Woden fighting the Fenris Wolf."

Bringing into Esoteric Wodenism the concept of the Krist Archetype has been able to see things from a different perspective, and to be able to understand more of our Folkish Religion. I know that some are wary of even study of the 'alien' bible, but had I not studied this (after reading the work of David Lane Wodensson) then the Mysteries of the White Stone of Ing would not have been given to us, from which the nature of Ingwe as the 'God of Fire and Light' evolved. These things do not happen by 'chance', they come about at a given time, and they are given to us that we may fulfil our Divine Destiny. 

This also applies to The Hooded Man Mysteries which evolved out of work in the 1980s, inspired by the Robin of Sherwood TV series. We are today guided by Woden as The Hooded Man, and again, this is an Aryan Archetype that is working at the level of the Folk-Soul of our People. This is suggested by the figure of Aragorn in Lord of the Rings, who appears as 'Strider', complete with the Black Hood. This figure of 'The Hooded One' has appeared to a number of people over the past few years - this is how an archetype works. The HelgiH Mysteries, given to me in 1997, form the basis of the Last Avatar who will appear at the start of the Age of Aquarius. 

Those who have understood the concept of Valhalla-Shambhalla and Asgard-Asgathi which I have outlined on the WF Telegram channel will better understand what I am talking about when I speak of the Teacher of Righteousness Avatar and the Warrior-King-Priest Avatar and the piece in Beowulf where Hengest receives the Hun-Sword outlines this idea of the Warrior-King-Priest in the figure of Hengest as the 'Geist of Ing'. This formed part of Nikolai Tolstoy's book on Merlin, though he did not speak of the 'Avatar' aspect, but of the 'Wyrd of AEtla' as 'The Destroyer', since Hengest led the English Vikings here against the growing Religion of Evil (he did not say this either). The biblical 'Christ' appears as a Teacher of Righteousness at the start, whilst the 'Second Coming' is that of the Warrior-King-Priest. 'I am the Beginning and the End - the First and the Last' - a saying also placed by the Hindus upon Agni. 

Through the biblical Revelations we can also study the events of today, which shows an unfolding of the Archetypal Myth of the New Age. This is why I have drawn some conclusions from this, linking this to another work that I came across some years ago - the Book of Sajaha. The 'history' shown in the bible, including the Book of Revelation, is clearly derived from Babylon, where it was taken and distorted to suit the Global Agenda. the Book of Sajaha was found in Iraq (ancient Babylon) and taken to Germany, or so we are told. But, even if this is not a genuine ancient work it contains prophecies that could not have been known  prior to World War II, such as the mention of the ancient kingdoms of Iraq (Babylon), Persia (Iran) and Syria (Assyria) who were 'spent' and could not stand against the Dark Powers.  The 'pandemic' is clearly prophesied in this work, as 'wars, plagues and famines' appear in Revelation. The attempted genocide of our Folk is also prophesied, and a clear warning given to us to act to prevent this! 

The use of the Krist Archetype is certainly not distorting Folkish Wodenism, since it is a valuable part of understanding Folkish Wodenism at an esoteric level. At an exoteric level this is not important, since this level draws people into Northern Heathenism, but for the creation of the Folk-Religion needed to prepare the way for the Coming Avatar this is a vital part of our work. This is why I decided to change the role of WF and the WF-C, where the role of Woden's Folk will be mainly based upon the original purpose of creating WF back in 1998 - to create a Folk-Religion needed to prepare the way for the Coming Man. 

The use of the Krist Archetype is not necessary in the WF-C since this is an esoteric aspect, hence why no mention is made in rites and rituals. I have used the magazine, and my latest book, to try to explain this in simple terms, since it is important that everyone is open to studying this on their own initiative if they so wish. As I said, this forms the work of WF which is why I have tried to explain as best and simply as I can, since there are those within the WF-R who do have an interest in this esoteric side. This is why WF is now an Initiation Order, since this all 'speaks to the Blood-Memory' and this has to be done at varying 'degrees' to become fully understood. 

Aelfric Avery severely criticises 'Retro-Heathens', something I certainly do not go along with. There is a need for this side of Northern Heathenry to attract people back from the Abrahamic religions. But I created WF back in 1998 in order to create an Ur-religion of the English Folk, not to go back to the past, and this was because the new world-age requires a new Aryan Archetype that must replace that of 'Jesus Christ' as the 'Hanged God', hanging in dejection, humiliation and defeat - and, as Friedrich Nietzsche stated - promoting death rather than life. When some Germans stated 'Odin is Dead!' they were misinterpreted entirely, since what was being declared back in those times was that the figure of Woden as the 'Hanged God' was dead - this aspect of Woden, not the god Woden himself. The statement declared that a new Woden Archetype was needed, and this actually appeared on paintings and sketches in Germany during these years, which anyone can find if they look. This was a figure of a Warrior-King riding a White Horse. This is the Wid-Ar Archetype we use in WF.

As I said, the new book, and the latest magazine tries to address this, even before it seems to have come up. These need careful reading in order to get a clear idea of what I am saying. The stumbling-block we have with this is that the majority of Northern Heathens do not recognise the concept of an Aryan Avatar, nor do they recognise the appearance of the Wotan Avatar, hence why much of this cannot be understood, and is thus promoted as 'alien'. Tolkien tried to create a Germanic Mythology for the English, and in his works he does recognise the concept of an Avatar, as shown in the figure of Aragorn, and as shown in his version of the saga of Sigurd the Volsung. He also brings into play the legends of Thule-Hyperborea (Beleriand) and At-al-land (Numenor-Atalante). This is another thing I touch in the latest Sword of Wayland. 

The Eye-in-the-Mouth Motif of Woden.

 

This Danish bracteate of around the 6th Century CE shows Woden, a Horse, and a Swastika. There are two distinct things to be noted here, the hairstyle, and the 'eye' (or object) that is seen in the mouth of Woden. 

This runic bracteate also appears to show Woden with a 'crescent moon' in his mouth, alongside of which is a solar-disc. Again, the hairstyle is the same as the first one seen above. 

The above shows two sides of an Iceni Coin from East Anglia, again we see the same hairstyle, and the 'Eye-in-the-Mouth', beside which is a 'star-symbol'. Note the Three Dots under the head, and the Three Dots in the left arm of the bracteate shown before this. The horse features in many of these 'Romano-British' (Germanic) coins. The 'Three Dots' also appears in the other side of the coin, with the Horse. 

This coin is of the Suessiones, a Belgic Tribe that were also here in England, and whose capital here was Winchester. Note the 'Eye-in-the-Mouth' motif once again (left hand), the hairstyle (left-hand) and the Woden swallowed by the Wolf (right-hand). The 'Wheel' is here no doubt the 'Wheel of Time'. 

The above coin is of the Iceni Tribe, again showing the 'Eye-in-the-Mouth' symbolism. The 'Eye-in-the-Well' symbolism is featured strongly in Kris Kershaw's work on Odin and the Germanic Mannerbunde. 

Yet another Iceni Tribe coin featuring the 'Woden Hairstyle', the 'Motif-in-the-Mouth', and the 'Three Dots', as well as the Horse Symbolism.

The above coin is again of the Iceni Tribe, showing Romulus and Remus being suckled by the She-Wolf. It is an amazing 'coincidence' that the Iceni Tribe 'disappeared' suddenly after the Anglo-Saxon invasions, and the Wuffinga Tribe 'appeared' suddenly with the Anglo-Saxons. The Wuffingas (Wulfingas) traced their lineage back to Woden, through Caesar! 

Woden-ALU-Horse-Swastika. 

Sigurd(?)-Thumb-Mouth-Swastika-Raven-ALU

Note that this actually tells us the figure is Woden in the runic inscription; the symbolism of the Swastika and the 'Horseshoe' (or 'Torc') is also found, as well as the Horse again. The hairstyle is also similar. Most of these figures show a clean-shaven Woden. 

The 'Dagenham Idol' dated over 4,000 years old, showing one eye scratched out. This was found in Dagenham in Essex, England, and seemingly proving Woden-Worship here in these islands over 4,000 years ago. 

 

The Dagenham Idol

There is something radically wrong with our English History, and we have been deceived over and over again. The 'Torc' worn by the 'Celts' here in these islands shows some indication that this was the 'Hangman's Noose' (twisted cord) word by the Woden-Born. That Establishment Historians, Archaeologists and Academics will continue the trend of deceit and lies is to be expected, but how long will it be before the 'alternative' side to this start to question these deceptions, and to try to recreate a true English History in the Islands of the Mighty? If the English are seen to be late 'invaders' then they will be denied their right to use the ancient sites of their Forefathers on a falsehood. Germanic Folk have been here in these islands for thousands of years, and we need to bring this into the light if we are to awaken this ancient land. 

English Warrior Arts

 

There have been attempts to create a English Martial Arts, but the aim of the Ar-Kan Rune-Lag is to create an Esoteric Warrior Arts that will complement the Exoteric Warrior Arts. After training for some years in Karate and Muai Tai Kick-Boxing, and then a little Wing Chun and Kung Fu, one of the main drawbacks that I found was that the training did not just involve learning the Martial Arts, but also learning the names of each move in a different language. Our Karate Instructor used English translations which made things easier, but there was still some areas in which Japanese was used. Now, I have no objections to this at all, but it would seem simpler to learn moves given in clear English which one can understand straight away. The Israeli martial arts called Krav Maga is taken from various different martial arts and made into a Combat Art rather than the usual Martial Arts which have become a sport. The same goes for the Russian Martial Arts of Systema, again using plain English to teach and learn, and again being a Combat Art and for use in street-fighting. 

If we look at the Eastern Martial Arts and their origin we find that they are not quite as 'foreign' as first seems. Most scholars trace the origins of the Martial Arts back to China and to the Shaolin Temple. From there developed Kung Fu, and then this spread to Korea (Tai Kwon Do) and Okinawa/Japan (Karate). But when delving into this the true origins lie with the Aryans in India, whence a Buddhist Monk - Boddhi-Dharma (Boddhidharma) travelled to the Shaolin Temple in China, and there taught the monks Chan (Zen) Buddhism, from which was developed Kung Fu. 

Boddhi-Dharma was born Bodhitara (461-534CE), the third son of a southern Indian King who was a member of the Ksitriya (Warrior-Caste), and he travelled to China to teach Buddhism. We can see from this that Buddhism, in its origins, was not at all pacifistic in its essence or form. The Koreans have a poem that describes his non-oriental origins -

From India, a true Son of Buddha

His bodily existence as free as the white clouds

I entrust these words to the mountains and the waters

You must open your barbarian blue eyes and look.

There is ion fact one very strange legend that depicts Boddhi-Dharma as coming from China by sea rather than by land as is the usual version. In this he arrives in a Swan-Ship; this is depicted in a mural known as 'The Temple of the Pagoda of the Sixth Patriarch's Hair'. He landed in Canton, from whence he travelled to the Shaolin Temple. Indeed, the foundation of the Shaolin Temple was credited to a non-Chinese monk named Buddhahabhadra (Ba-Tuo) in 496CE.

Boddhi-Dharma was a descendant of Sakya Muni, the Buddha, who was also of the Warrior-Caste of the Aryans. There is also a very interesting piece of information on the Warrior Arts of India. The birthplace of Boddhi-Dharma in Southern India is also the home of an Indian Warrior Arts called kalarippayattu. At the end of World War II a Russian KGB Officer came across an ancient Sanskrit document in Berlin in 1945. This Sanskrit document was stamped by the National Socialists and it turned out (when translated) to refer to a 5000 year-old martial arts originating with the Aryans in India. This Aryan Martial Arts was then developed in Russia and is today used to train some of the Russian Special Forces.

So this is really a case of an ancient Aryan Warrior Arts surviving in the East, and in much later times coming into Europe for our own use again if we so wish to adopt (and adapt) this to our own needs. This is not the only case of such a thing happening. It is usual to credit the Chinese with the art of acupuncture, back to around 2000 years ago, and yet Otzi the Iceman, found in the Alps between Austria and Italy, has been shown to bear tattoo-marks that correspond to known acupuncture points. Otzi is dated back to 5,500 years ago!

A good deal of the Martial Arts is based upon a knowledge of the movement of birds and animals in fighting, much like boxing may have been based upon seeing hares fighting. It is thus a natural form of movement, based upon a knowledge of Nature, and thus not restricted to one area of the world. There are martial arts moves which are more for sport than for street-fighting, and it would be necessary to leave these out of training. High kicks and spinning kicks are fine on a Holywood movie, but low kicks to the knee and shin are more effective in fighting. A good example of the use of high kicks is the Korean Tai Kwon Do, but since these were designed for attacking an opponent riding a horse they would not be practical in these times. Experience has shown me that attacking a Tai Kwon Do opponent with punches makes it very difficult for them to respond effectively, being used to mostly kicking. The key seem to be using practical moves rather than 'traditional moves'. 

Bruce Lee developed his own martial arts from various other forms of fighting, including foot-movements from English Fencing Techniques. His training was originally in Wing Chun, which is a Combat Art and not a sport, and which is highly technical but highly effective in many ways. In many ways it is good to train in different martial arts and then create a form suited to your own needs; this way it becomes an individual Fighting Art which no one else trains in, and is thus unique and harder to combat. 

Bruce Lee dropped the use of kata or form, since his was a street-fighting form that he wished to create. However, there are distinct advantages to the use of kata/form, and the use of group-training where the group is set in a line and practices the use of punches, kicks and defensive moves together as a group. This makes for very effective group-cooperation, and of course team-work, which is essential for any group. Businesses very often send their employees on team-work courses of some kind to help to form an efficient team. This would certainly benefit most people in our day, since individualism and the lack of team-work is rife in our society. This is no doubt why businesses have done this in the past, to offset this problem. 

The 33 moves of the Ar-Kan Basic Form are done singly, but there is a Fylfot-Form which uses the same 33 runes but in a form of movement incorporating each of the 33 runes. The latter has been developed from the former, and there will be more of these to come in the future. Some of the younger chaps in the Hearth of Hengest did a bit of BJJ at the last camp, and this can form part of our work at camps, since young chaps have more interest in this stuff and this is a useful form of training in times like these. 

Edel Project - Part Two

Carrying on from the last part I do think it important to grow our own food, since there is a likelihood of food shortages and even famines in the future. We cannot tell, but whatever the case there is nothing whatever to lose in growing food in the garden or on an allotment. My garden is not that big, but I can fill many areas with food-crops by growing some close together. A word of caution here, since with the idea of mass-production came the idea of close-cropping, and a long time ago William Cobbett warned of farmers doing this and getting far smaller yields because the crops were too close together. We should think on this point when growing, since in some cases growing close together has adverse effects - tomatoes are one of the things that can have problems here, since this can encourage blight to set in. 

I tried a new idea of a bed with squares, planting different crops in different squares; I saw no advantage to this and it did not produce any more crops so have dropped the idea this year. But, this may be due to my own circumstances, so don't be put off by new ideas - I always try them and see what happens. If they work fine, if not we have to try another way. I have increased my growing beds this year since my next-door neighbour had some wood he did not want and I got enough to create a new raised bed. The other bed I made by digging up a bit more of the lawn; I'm like to sit out in the summer so keep a small piece of lawn, and for the dog to lay on too. 

Brassicas have never been successful for me, especially cauliflower, which is one of the better tasting, of course. And no matter how I grow them under netting of a small poly-tunnel, the cabbage-white butterflies seem to find a way in and ravage the lot. This year I am going to try something different by growing just a few cabbage in planters - they can be put under the netting the same.

I grow quite a bit in containers, but this is really down to the individual, since it can cause problems in hot, dry summers when you have to go away for a while and cannot water them. This has to be weighed up in regard to individual circumstances. Using larger containers or wooden planters (better still) is the best way to go about this. Wooden planters are not that hard to make, and a couple of years ago my youngest son started making these and selling to the people he did gardening for. He has changed his type of work now so no longer does it, but some of the stuff he made was really good. 

This is Lemon Balm growing in an old container that would usually have been thrown away; makes refreshing tea in the summer, and sometimes I add this to mint tea. 

There is still seedlings in the mini greenhouse; I am going to sow a further supply of peas this year to try to get a second crop, since two of the sets I have sown are already growing pods. There is a 100-watt solar-panel on the top of this greenhouse (south-facing wall) which powers a 12-volt truck battery, from which all of the small electrical/electronic gear is recharged. You will notice the plastic markers for the seeds, which usually end up being mixed up or the 'permanent' ink comes off! Which is why it is best to learn to identify small seedlings if possible. For some unknown reason the tomatoes this year are CRAP! I did go to a garden centre to try to get plants but theirs were not that much bigger, so we shall have to be patient and wait for them to grow.

The poly-tunnel is ready for planting, but with the tomatoes being as they are, and the cucumbers no better either this is as yet 'barren-land'. I have a copper coil in this too, so we shall see what that brings. Usually, the tomatoes are by now about 6-7 inches tall, since they were sown back in early January; but they do grow later but will crop later too. The idea of sowing early is to produce early crops, since salad leaves are abundant this year, and I always each tomatoes with salads - as well as frying for breakfast. Last year I had 8 jars of green tomatoes which I pickled in brine - but not that keen on these even when fried. Will let them ripen this time. (They could be used in chutney I guess.)

In the foreground here is a plum tree that has never done well, and it does stop a lot of light when larger. I pruned it right back and it is shooting out again now, and will be getting another one this winter and keep in a pot - obviously seems to need a pollinator. 

There is an ash-tree in the front garden which was here before I moved in, some 25 years ago now. The grass has not been mown here but I do mow it regularly in early spring to get the grass-cuttings that are put on the garden and dug in or used as a mulch. Around the ornament are Garlic Chives, which I would strongly advise others not to plant in the garden, since they grow everywhere even in the grass. They are edible and the flowers can be eaten in a salad, but the statue here is a 'pissing-point' for Sam, so I don't really want to use these for eating. They will grow in pots, but even then I would take care, since they do seem to spread by seed - which goes everywhere as I say. Even the chap next door has a garden full of them now! 

I've even got peas growing on the front, next to the front porch; this is a hot area and they may thrive there, we shall see. I had to move a clump of bulbs to get space to try these, but they were shifted elsewhere and not wasted. To the right of the above photo (not clear) is a small bed of potatoes, where I cut part of the lawn away to plant them. They are somewhat under the Ash-Tree and this takes nutrients and water away which could be a problem - we shall see. 

In the above video we can see how the Chinese Tyrants treat those who grow their own food, seeking some independence from the State Monster, but also perhaps because they have to do so to live. This is why I have always felt the need to make different plans for different situations, and not rely upon one set plan. This is a Global Agenda, and we shall at some time in the future have this happen here in England. This is where survivalism also comes into the picture, since settled communities are just one option, and one that could have problems in the future. There are things we can do, but these need discussion face-to-face so that they are not broadcast to the world. 

Edel Project

 

Growing one's own food is not only useful in that there will come a time when food becomes short, but also because it means picking fresh food each day from the garden. I don't grow enough to be self-sufficient, but enough to give me fresh food during the spiring-summer, and some for the autumn-winter by freezing and storing. It is also very relaxing to work in the garden or on an allotment, and, of course, working in a natural outdoor environment, as well as keeping the physical body fit. 

I'll start with the garlic which are growing well now, being planted last October since they garden off better with the cold winter. I planted these last year and had a very good crop.

Raspberries were planted along a small make-shift fence; some of these were from suckers moved last year.

Peas planted in a cold-frame, these were supermarket dried peas, which I have been planting for years with no problems; far cheaper than seeds from the seed-suppliers. 

Onions planted in a narrow bed; so far these are doing a lot better than last year when I had a really poor crop. These were Onion Sets, since the seeds I did sow did not germinate this year. Sets are easier to be honest and there is little to gain at the moment in growing seeds - though this will soon change by the look of it.

Next to the garlic are peas grown against the same fence as the raspberries; these have only just be put into the ground from trays. All I do is scatter the seeds in trays and split when needed. This can be done in supermarket plastic trays which cost nothing more and are strong enough for the job. 

There are two courgettes planted in front of the spuds; they can just be seen here. Others have been planted in a different bed. These came out very quickly this year and I have plenty to use. Since Lee has started an allotment now I give him what I do not use. Work together is the idea.

Lettuce in a cold-frame in the front garden; these have been sown later than another crop which I am using - shown below -

This crop of lettuce I am using now for salads; not seen easily are small clumps of spring onions planted around the outside after I moved the cold-frame to the later crop. These grow much quicker under plastic around this time of year. 

Next to the pease growing in the larger cold-frame is a rhubarb which is doing very well; I have others but these were sown from seed two years ago and are still getting hold. 

Both front and back gardens are a mixture of growing for food and growing flowers for looks (and the bees). The peas here are flowering and were raised first in the small cold-frame.

 I had lots of strawberries from one of the gardens I look after, and from runners I have grown a new bed outside, and here the rest are in containers inside the poly-tunnel. 

A comfrey plant in a pot, the plant supplied a couple off years ago by Scyld who is a WF-C Activist. These are not only good for sprains and broken bones, but also for potash for tomatoes and potatoes. I usually cut the leaves up and dig them into the soil, since putting them into water for a liquid feed stinks after a time. 

These are not grown for food, they are tree seeds (in this case Oak) planted in a pot by my daughter Freya when she was a small child. The stick pushed into the soil, and similar ones scattered around the garden are wound with copper wire as an experiment, since copper, when coiled, is said to act in a totally different way - we shall see. Copper does give a current, since this is used as a slug-deterrent, so this is the theory behind this idea of using copper coils. 

These are sweet-corn which are growing alright so far; last year's crop was nowhere near as the previous one, and I'm hoping to get a better one this year. I have watered these since they have not long been put in, but it is sometimes better to let small plantings go without too much watering, to encourage the roots to spread downwards and outwards for water and nutrients. 

These spuds have been planted along the fence at the bottom of the garden, along which grows a grape-vine. This is not part of a 'wilderness' drive to keep up with the New World Order, but is because this area grows shady under the apple trees that grow there. 

This is the small pond that Freya built when she lived here; this not only attracts insects etc. but also enhances the garden, even though very small. In front of its is a small potted gooseberry bush which is starting to fruit now. To the left is another small tree - Maple - which was grown from seed some years ago. These can all enhance the garden and its looks. 

You can see the peas already growing in this large pot; they were sown inside a mini-greenhouse, and planted out in the poly-tunnel, then now moved outside, which is why they are growing so well. The use of glass/plastic at this time of year gets much earlier crops. Another trick is to spread grass-cuttings around a raised bed, and cover with about 2 inches of soil; this should warm up and help to germinate seeds sown there. 

Both peppermint and spearmint are grown in large pots around the garden; they grow best in pots since out in the soil they spread and take over everything. Another plus is that each year I pull the roots out in late winter, break them up and replant the bulk back into new soil. The rest of the roots make new plants which is why I have around 6 plants now, and have given at least the same amount away to family and friends. (These could also be done a little more professionally and sold to others - something to consider as things get worse.)

At the front right is a small bay-tree which is in a pot, and has been there for some years now. It supplies bay-leaves to dry off for use in cooking. There are also 6-7 potted rosemary plants which are so easy to grow from cuttings. Just cut small twigs from a rosemary plant and stick in the ground or a pot - they grow very easily without any help. 

More and more of those in the WF-C are getting involved in the Edel-Community which is our way of trying to get as many of our people as possible (not for everyone, of course) growing their own food. 

Due to our WF-C Activists being scattered around the country it would not be feasible to think of a close-knit community working together in one area. Would this be possible in the future? Maybe, but I am reluctant to say 'yes' since there are great problems ahead for anyone who feels that this can be done successfully, especially here in England. We cannot always have what we want, since this is not always possible in these times - and we need (NOW) to face up to this, since it is important. There are certain problems that can be foreseen -

• We would first need to greatly increase the number of active WF-C Hearths operating in local areas. Our numbers have increased lately, but the number of active local hearths has decreased - hence the problem. 
• Land - At the back of the mind we must now consider that ALL private ownership (apart from The System) will be abolished. That is their aim anyway. Since any piece of land is registered then, although not impossible, it would be difficult to buy land and to use it. For those who think it impossible to take the land, I suggest a look at past Communist Regimes, and the present-day 'back-door' method of having it something that 'can' be done on paper, but is 'impossible' to do in reality. To get hold of private housing all that would be needed is to force owners to get their houses up to an 'eco-standard' costing hundreds of thousands of pounds; for most this would be impossible to do, so the State steps in and buys up the houses to rent back to their 'owners'. The same type of thing would be applied to land. 
• Even with land that is rented we would have the problem of moves to stop people growing their own food. This would not necessarily need an outright ban - very obvious and tyrannical - but could be done using alternative methods that allow this on paper, but make it impossible to do, the hallmark of Communist Regimes. And how much land would there be that one could rent, if NO private property is allowed. 
• Surveillance - With the CCTV cameras, drones, satellite surveillance, and any other high-tech methods of keeping tabs on everyone, how easy would it be to set up something, especially with a group of people, that would remain 'under the radar'? England is not a large country, and there is no wilderness here I am afraid. The Scottish Highlands are the area for some form of wilderness, but Scotland is also in the hands of the Global Activists. 

These are negative ideas, but they are necessary points, since this is what they are trying to do, and we have to face facts and reality. This is why I have always done growing hand-in-hand with survivalism, since the latter may one day be the only alternative in the given situation of the time. We have seen in the US how certain groups are already being targeted because they are self-reliant, and this will also be applied here in time. 

If anything was to be done in this direction, any form of use of the World Wide Web would soon attract the spotlight and put paid to any real moves towards such an end. If this were to be done it would need total secrecy and a select small group who have known each other for a long time. With the above in mind, it is then imperative that we plan now as individuals, plan how best we can deal with this before it comes onto us - which could be a swift as the Covid 19 tyranny. In this case total self-reliance would be needed in everything, since we could not rely on seed-suppliers, plant-suppliers, nor tool-suppliers. What to do would be a matter for the individual at this time, for putting out ideas will only give them away to those who wish to complete the loss of freedom we have.
