Of Gods & Runes - Volume 3

Blood & Soil - An Alternative

 

Blood & Soil! The title itself should put some of those who have no understanding of this into a form of hysteria. There is nothing at all sinister about the title, and it rightly sums up almost everything that Folkish Wodenism stands for, everything that makes us opposed to those religions that are man-centred and which reject Nature and Natural Law. Folkish Wodenism is not man-centred, neither do we see 'God' as being outside and above Nature; we seek a harmony with Nature and Natural Law, and this can only come about through a New Order. 

God-in-Nature: God-in-the-Blood! This expression means the same as Blood & Soil and sums up our world-view in that we believe that the Creative Force permeates everything, pulses through all life upon Earth. Some would refer to this as the Life-Force or Universal Life-Force, or by many other names, all of which refer to a Cosmic Force that dwells within all life, and which we should try to harmonise with. This is certainly not a 'transcendent' force that is outside and above all, every facet of life is part of this, and our Folk-Gods are also facets of this Life-Force. 

"In the Universe, in Nature, nothing is the same. The difference is the Law. Even a crystal of snow is distinguished from the others. You could say that it was God who made the infinite inequalities. God created the races, also the countries, nations etc. To pretend to mix them and end the differences is to impoverish the world and to act against the Will of the Creator...."

Miguel Serrano - The Quest: Antarctica (55 Club).

It stands out clearly that the idea of 'Equality' in every instance has to be enforced by law and can be see as unnatural, for if it were natural and according to the Eternal Laws of Nature it would not need to be enforced. The idea that 'God' is outside and above Nature, from which follows that "God's Laws" are above that of Nature, and to be obeyed without question, breaks us from Nature completely, and this can only end in catastrophic disaster. From our standpoint 'God's Laws' or the 'Laws of the Gods' are the Eternal Laws of Nature. We can see a clear example of this in Tolkien's works, especially in The Silmarillion where the Dark Lord and Dark Powers corrupt the kings and rulers of Numenor, who actually rise up against the Gods, and this is because they seek immortality. At this point it is Iluvater-Eru who intervenes and causes the continent of Numenor to sink beneath the waves, leaving only a remnant of the Numenoreans who stayed faithful to the Gods. This paves the way for the future age since it is from the Royal Line of Numenor that Aragorn springs. 

Miguel Serrano tackles this, a theme quoted at the end of The Quest: Antarctica, where he talks of the ancient Egyptians and their idea of Immortality. But, what these Dark Powers see as 'immortality' is the 'Immortality of the Cells' which is a vastly different concept that that spoken of by Don Miguel. What this is, once again, is a sick parody of the true immortality, that spoken of by the Krist in the New Testament. We find this throughout our time, where the Web of Wyrd is paralleled on the purely material plane by the 'World Wide Web'. Some of the prominent drivers of the Global Agenda speak of this 'immortality', and this makes plain how they are working at a physical and psychic level throughout their work - the Spirit of Man is denied.

As time goes by, and things here in this country (England) get worse, it seems clear that Don Miguel was right, and that our only hope is to reject this techno-nightmare in favour of a return to the concept of Blood and Soil, the Mystical Link between the Blood of the Folk and the Soil of the Folkland. We try to do this through -

• Undertaking the Wheel of the Year Rites which connect us to the cyclic nature of the year, and to the Gods, Goddesses, Elves and Ancestors of the Folk.
• Taking up some form of food growing which itself shows us the cyclic nature of the year, and brings us into harmony with the seasons of the year. 
• Being true to our land, our nation, our history, and thus to our Ancestors or Forefathers. Without a love of Land and Folk we are lost in an Ocean of Chaos. 
• Holding our land as sacred, where we have a belief that the Earth is a Living Being, and that our small part of this is bonded to our Folk - the English Folk - through a mystical link between the Soil of the Land and the Blood of the Folk. Just as other nations and other peoples are linked to their lands in the same special way. 
• Some of us undertake some form of wild-camping and survivalism, which again takes us out into the wilder areas, and which again places us in the palm of Nature and Natural Law. This is done, not merely for physical survival, but to get back to using the basic products of Nature for building, fire-lighting and other pursuits. 
• In the past we have done such outdoor pursuits as walking and hiking, and our activities have always been outdoor events. 

The 'Lockdown' (a phrase used of those imprisoned) of 2020 was designed to stop everyone going out of their homes, something that did not work very efficiently in many cases. This negative move caused at least two positive things -

• More people went out walking in the countryside, and thus out in the natural world, away from the 'Virtual Reality' of the techno-society, away from the 'Shopping Malls' of Miguel Serrano. 
• I know of people around me who started to grow their own food when they had not done so before; those who had done so increased their food-production. 

It is true to say that the only way open to those who follow the Way of Woden and the striving to overcome human limitations, the striving towards a 'New Man', is through struggle, hardship and 'necessity'. This we have been given on a plate with the 'Covid-Cult' and its harsh, oppressive conditions, conditions that we have to strive against at every moment, since this is ongoing, not just a 'Freedom Day' once in while to make it look as if things are going back to 'normal'. 

It is true to say that we need to wake others up, to show them the true nature of this tyranny, but it is also true to say that we need to wake ourselves up at the same time. This is also an Inner Struggle, against our own 'Inner Demons', against the Dark Powers that also exist within the individual, pulling him away from the right and true path. Technology is a drug! This is the Fenris Wolf swallowing Woden - the Spirit of Man. In this world we could not get out to others without this technology, but this is only because the majority of people have been taken by the 'drug'. We need to create a balance between how we use their technology and our harmony with Nature.

This techno-nightmare of the 'Lead Age' has allowed the powers-that-be to collect vast amounts of information simply because the masses are given a sense of self-importance they did not have before. They can now speak to anyone around the world through 'Social Media' and in doing so feel they can trust anyone they speak to, and give away their most intimate details to complete strangers. 'Strangers' - we should read the poem by Rudyard Kipling to understand the concept of the 'stranger', and that this is something one does not trust because they are something 'unknown'. The 'alien' has become something 'known', and this is far from the truth. We should trust those we know, but be wary of those we do not know, this is clearly stated in the Eddas.

Modern technology revolves around electricity, and around the right-brain - the intellectual side of the human mind. Using the computer (as I am doing now) opens the brain to all sorts of electro-magnetic waves; this is also true of being outside, sitting quietly in a wild place. The difference lies in that the former is 'Virtual Reality' whilst the latter brings us into union with the Natural Order and Natural Forces. As Don Miguel says in his works, the alternative to 'electricity' and to this 'techno-world' is to look for the Alternative Science based upon the Mana (Man-na) or 'Universal Force'. This can only be done through a reintegration with Nature and Natural Law, through a return to the concept of Blood & Soil.

There is good reason for the Global Elite to promote the use of mind-altering drugs, though the 1960's 'Youth Rebellion', which served their aims to the full, some of the most famous promoters of the 'psychedelic drugs' having links to the CIA. Miguel Serrano states clearly that their use destroys the Chakra Energies, and halts the power to become the 'God-Man'. Once again, this gives a 'Virtual Reality' rather than a Natural Reality, and is another means of 'escapism', to get away from the obvious problems of the world - which we should face head-on. The sudden change of 2020-2021 should not be something we withdraw from entirely, nor should we go along with it; this is an opportunity to use the situation to our own advantage. Such a situation should be the means to transform ourselves as individuals, to use every opportunity that faces us to overcome and to get rid of what we do not need and does not serve our destiny. 

The Global Powers seek to make us all into machines, robot-golems who serve their every needs; far from the 'equality' they preach they see themselves as being above and beyond the people. For us they preach 'democracy' whilst they structure their own in a strict hierarchical order, thus making them far more efficient. 'Democracy' served them because they could control behind the scene; their coming out into the light means they need a new means of control - a Totalitarian Marxist World State. (*) 

(*) For the moment anyway, since this new Marxist World State may in itself be merely another movement that serves their purpose for the time being. This is where many mistake their movements and organisations to be separate and sometimes opposed to each other, whereas in reality they are merely part of the same Global Agenda - crossing the centuries.

There is an interesting interpretation of the Lord of the Rings in regard to the destruction of the Ring of Power, seen on a YouTube channel (not sure of name). This can only be seen from the book, and not the film which omits this important part. In the film Gollum gains the ring by biting off the finger of Frodo, and then falls accidentally into the Fires of Mount Doom. This is not so in the book - and anyone can check this out - where it is no accident that Gollum falls into the fires - it is the Will of the One-Ring. 

"'Down, down!' he (Frodo) gasped, clutching his hand to his breast, so that beneath the cover of his leather shirt he clasped the Ring. 'Down, you creeping thing, and out of my path! Your time is at an end. You cannot betray me or slay me now....'

....Sam saw these two rivals with other vision...and before it (Gollum) stood stern, untouchable now by pity, a figure robed in white, but at its breast it held a Wheel of Fire. Out of the fire there spoke a commanding voice.

'Begone, and trouble me no more! If you touch me ever again, you shall be cast yourself into the Fire of Doom.'"

Lord of the Rings (page 979). (*)

The film did not touch upon this at all, but this is in fact perhaps one of the most important things in the whole story. The name 'Frodo' is based upon 'Frodi', the fabled God of the Golden Age. This is Ingvi-Frey, and there is thus reason to equate these to Agni of the Vedas or Ingwe of our own English Lore. Ingwe is a 'Fire-God', the God of Creative Fire, and here the destruction of the One-Ring is by Fire. The 'Wheel of Fire' on the breast of the white figure is clearly the Ring of Power, since Frodo held this in the former sentence; it is thus clear that this is a curse thrown at Gollum by the Ring of Power itself. Gollum may have 'slipped' when he fell over the edge but this was how it was fated to happen, since he was cursed to do so. 

Frodo, seen as one of the humble 'Shire-Folk' must now be seen in a new light; this seems clear from his transformation into the white-robed figure bearing the Wheel of Fire. Gollum was a mere tool in the hands of the Ring of Power, and Sauron's power is itself derived from the One-Ring, which he forged himself at Mount Doom. Sauron had forged the means to his own doom, had forged the one thing that would destroy him. His striving for power and dominion over all life would lead to his own doom. 

Sauron had the rings forged in order to create the One Ring which would bind them all to his will. It was his own creation - the One Ring - that finally brought about his destruction. The Ring of Power itself turned upon him! From the very start of Tolkien's works we see that Iluvater-Eru was the Creative Force or 'High God', and even when Morgoth rebelled this was part of the overall plans of the Creator, not outside his power as Morgoth thought. Seen in this light everything that happens and is happening now is all part of the evolutionary drive towards the 'Higher Man' and the 'New Earth'. 

This theme aligns with that of the Divine Fool found in the Tale of Hamlet, and other Indo-European tales based upon the same story. In this the one brother is slain by the other, and the son of the murdered man swears revenge on his uncle; not to be seen to be plotting, he feigns the part of 'The Fool' or 'The Simpleton' to avenge his father. In this tale the uncle is bound by archetype to destroy himself, to be the cause of his own death. This fits exactly with the figure of Gollum who is fated to destroy himself, at the same time as he destroys the Ring of Power.

This said, the idea of confronting this Dark Force headlong seems to be futile, and the words of Julius Evola seem to be more valid than ever. His idea that this force is like a rampant tiger, running headlong at full speed, and bound to lose more and more energy as it gets nearer and nearer to its end, makes sense now. He suggested 'Riding the Tiger' until its spent energy ran out, at which time its power would be no more - destroyed by its own momentum. Is this the fate of the 'Gollum' or 'Golem', the automaton that seems to be the blueprint for the robot-slave? 

This world is fated to be destroyed by the Fires of Surt when he rides into battle wielding the Flaming Sword. These are not merely destructive fires, but are the Cleansing Fire of a New Creation. In the Lord of the Rings the final scene when the ring is destroyed is that of a massive catastrophe and earth-upheaval in which the Dark Powers are destroyed completely. Nature has the final say in this. This is why the importance of our breaking free of the chains of destructive technology to embrace a new technology, a new Spiritual Science based upon the most ancient Aryan Science of Implosion. This itself tells us to look 'within' for the answers, to understand that technology enslaves, whilst the Science of Magic will set us free, and that means a return to the concept of Blood and Soil in order to embrace the wonders of Nature, and to be able to stand in awe of the natural world around us.

This is not just about a renewal of Nature, but a complete transformation of Nature and Man. A 'new world' must arise in which the 'new man' can live upon; the God-Man who achieves immortality through the creation of the Absolute I is the aim of Creation. This is why we see the sick parody of these Dark Forces, who have no power to create, only copy and in the process distort because they are limited to the lower levels, and have no access to the Spiritual Light. 

The ancient symbol of Blood & Soil - the Edel-Rune - is that of the blood-continuum through the ages, itself linked to Nature and Natural Law. This is why Friedrich Nietzsche emphasised the concept of the Aryan Blood, and to stay true to the Earth. A transformation in man would bring the transformation of Nature, thus the importance of our Sacred Blood Struggle. If it is true, as scientists seem to have found, that the RNA can affect the DNA, then this is no doubt why the Dark Powers are intent upon such an alteration in the RNA. But this works two ways, and it is thus possible for the individual - and the race - to affect this alteration in the DNA, thus creating the long-prophesied Man-God. 

(*) As I said here, these are not my own ideas for they came from a YouTube channel which studies Tolkien's characters, but after checking this it is clear what he says is right - it is the Ring of Power that destroys itself in the end. This is quite logical when we think of it, since the sole reason that everything dies is that from its very creation it starts to age and decline, and death is imprinted in its genes from the start. True 'Immortality' is that of the Astral Body and not of the human cells, as these people seek to achieve.

Ingetheod - Inge's Folk (Part Two).

 

The White Dragon is the Dragon of Ingwe and it represents both the English Folk and the Land of Ingwe (England). We often hear of what is termed 'Ley-Lines' which are connected (we are told) with the idea of the Dragon Currents; the Germans coined a far better term for 'Ley-Lines' and that was Holy-Lines (Heilig). Just looking on an Ordnance Survey map of an area will show how ancient sites (stone circles, standing-stones, cromlechs, sacred groves and trees, and very old churches) were in an almost straight line. These are not necessarily exactly in line, but they do form a line in which the sites are close to it where they are not on it. This is no coincidence and has been the subject of many books about the 'Earth Energies' or 'Earth Mysteries'. 

Guy Underwood wrote of these energy-lines, connecting them to underground water-currents and to 3 1/2 and 7 turn spirals at 'Blind Springs'. These, of course, are sometimes connected to water-dowsing, but this is only one side to this energy. It is interesting to note that the 'Britons' (*) here in Britain connected these energy-lines to a figure called Elen or Elan, an interesting name in that it can thus mean "Master of El" (El-An), 'El' being the Old English root for 'Light', as in 'Elf' or 'Elves'. This name seems to be the same as the Greek 'Helen' and was used interchangeably by the Romans. As Elan of the Host she seems to be linked to the Spirit-Lines too. It seems that the Romans also recognised these energy-lines and associated them with Mercury, who they also associated with Woden. Since Woden was the god of boundaries, marker-stones, and crossroads he is just like Mercury in this sense. 

Elan - Female Energy-Force running through the Holy-Lines. ('Master of El')

Woden - Male energy-force running through the Holy-Lines. ('Master of Wod')

(*) This is yet another Old English root-word that we find in Roman Britain and pre-Roman Britain.

It would seem clear that the male and female forces were very different in form

The Caduceus of Mercury has a winged column around which wind two snakes; these snakes make the form of the Ing-Rune as above. The whole shape is like the Saxon Irminsul with the 'Winged Cone' at the top of the column. The two columns at the side are possibly biblical and masonic since they do not figure in the Caduceus as far as I know. The whole thing seems to represent the Kundalini-Energy or Fire-Serpent which is connected to Ingwe as the Fiery-Serpent. The Pine-Cone represents the Third Eye or 'Mind's Eye'. The spiral form of the serpents, moving in a coil, could suggest (at one level) that the underground water moves along as a kind of 'vortex', hence why such energy is generated, as shown by Viktor Schauberger who seriously studied this. 

The symbolism of the Caduceus is that of the Serpent (Earth-bound) transmuting into the Eagle (Winged-Serpent/Swan) which is symbolic of the transformation from Man to Superman, through creating the Divine Hero. Energy is neutral, and such energies can be used by either Light Forces or Dark Forces, and it seems that the builders of the earlier Christian Churches were fully aware of these and built them on ancient heathen sites. 

Even having done so much research into the White Stone of Ing we still do not know when and why this stone was carved and sited at Steyning ('Stone-Ing') in West Sussex. What we do know is that the area was the land of the South Saxons, but later came under the sway of the West Saxons, the latter eventually becoming the most powerful royal line over the English Folk. We know that AEthelwulf ('Noble Wolf') may have been buried here since the gravestone in the porch of the church is seen to be his, and that his remains were later moved to Winchester as the English Capital. The curved shape of the stone itself suggests to me some form of boat or ship, and this could be connected to Scef and his legend, since the West Saxons claimed descent from Woden, but back further to Scef, Scyld, and Beow. There is a problem here since the West Saxon line was Saxon and not Angle, and some scholars have suggested that the royal line is taken from that of Bernicia where King Ida is said to have been a descendant of Ingui. 

There is a very strange thing about the area around Sussex and Hampshire, and that is the form of a dragon made by the South Downs National Park. This is something that suddenly came to me whilst looking at a national map of the area, and the form does seem to be much like a dragon. There are also certain key points on the figure that may (I say 'may') match up with Energy-Points (Chakras), and here I am going to go though these, though this is merely conjecture at this time -

Muladhara Chakra - Base Chakra sited at the Long Man of Wilmington, the 'tail' of the Dragon. Related to the Earth. This would be where the 'Sleeping Beauty' (Sleeping Goddess Kundalini) lies dormant. Near the site we have Hunter's Burgh which is a comet-shaped mound, and another phallic-shaped mound on Windover Hill above the hill-figure, and a much later White Horse in line with the Windover Hill mound (which faced to the horse). The figure is Waendal, and the area once called Wandelmestrew (Tree of the Helmed Waendal). Near to the hill figure is a 1,600 year old Yew Tree in the local churchyard. 

Svadhisthana Chakra - This may be located at a place near to Lewes called Kingstone ('King's Stone'), although this has not yet been looked into enough to be sure of this being right. Related to Water (Ap-Ab) which means the Waters of the Lower World or Inner Earth. Unfortunately, where the name 'Kingstone' came from I have no idea, and this is a matter for new research. There is another area nearby, on the outskirts of Brighton, which could also be seen as important - Stanmer. Since this chakra is associated with water and especially the Waters of the Lower World, this name means 'Stony Mere', mere being an Old English term for wetlands, or maybe even a 'pool'. 

Manipura Chakra - This is a very interesting one because the chakra is connected to Agni and to Fire, and seems to be located at Steyning and the White Stone of Ing. Steyning is five miles from the sea on the South Coast, but at one time it was a thriving port. The animal associated with the chakra is the Ram which is symbolic of Heimdal of course. This would be linked to the Hara-Centre and to an important Centre of Energy. The symbolism here is of a Trikona on whose sides are parts of the Swastika. This is the Fire-Wheel whose colour is Red.

Anahata Chakra - This may be linked to a place called Bignor which has an old Roman Villa there. This has the remains of the villa with a number of mosaics depicting the Swastika, Venus and a figure of Medusa and her Serpents. This would be at the Heart-Centre. It is interesting to note that the figure of Venus is present, since the word Anahata is so similar to the Iranian Goddess named Anahita who would be the equivalent to Venus (Freya). 

Visuddha Chakra - I have placed this (for the moment) around the area of Harting Beacon which is a Beacon Hill, although there is no real reason for this other than it being in line with the others. Harting Beacon or Beacon Hill has settlements dating back to the Bronze Age, and has an Anglo-Saxon hlaew (Burial Mound) on the top, though flattened by modern farming (surprise, surprise). It was in the past excavated. Nearby is a Pen Hill, a name which could be Celtic, 'pen' being 'head', but on the other hand which may be a corruption of something else. This would be the Throat-Centre.

Ajna Chakra - This I have sited at Old Winchester Hill which is a name of which no-one seems to know where it came because it was not 'Old Winchester'. This has a number of Bronze-Age Burial Mounds dating back to the early times of the Bronze Age. This would be the 'Third Eye Centre'. It is near places called Meon - East Meon, West Meon, Meonstoke and Meon Valley. 

Crown Chakra - This is the last chakra at the top of the head, and this I have sited at Winchester, and in particular at St. Catherine's Hill which is just outside Winchester. Winchester was named Venta Belgarum ('Market Place of the Belgae') by the Romans, this being later named Venta Caester by the Saxons, which became Wintancaester and then corrupted to Winchester. St Catherine's Hill is a very old site with a more recent Miz-Maze on it, and its association with 'St. Catherine' and the 'Catherine Wheel' is interesting, since this is the Wheel of Fire or Fire-Wheel which complements the Fire-Twirl at the 'tail' of the dragon - the Long Man. There is a problem here with the old name of Winchester used in Roman times; the term 'venta' is said to be 'British', presumably the concocted 'Proto-British' which has no real basis in history, and it means 'market-place'. However, from looking this up in dictionaries it seems that it comes from a Spanish word 'venta' meaning 'sale', the same concept as 'market', of course. It appears that this was a Roman name and not 'British' at all, so we have no idea what it was called by the Belgae. Caesar stated that most of the Belgae were of Germanic descent, and since the name means 'to bulge out' (as in a rage or fury) and is Old English this brings into question the 'Celtic' origins as most establishment scholars infer. These are probably the Fir Bolg of Irish Mythology, since the words are interchangeable in Old English - Belg/Bolg. The word 'caester' is said to be Latin for 'camp' or a 'fortified area' so it is not clear why the English should use this term, especially as it would mean 'market of the camp'.

But...the Germanic form (which is never, never considered by scholars) can be found as -

Windan (OE),

Winda (Old Frisian),

Wintan (Old High German),

Vinta (Old Norse).

All of these mean 'to wind', which relates directly to the 'Catherine Wheel' and to the Miz-Mase (a 'winding maze'), so this should be considered as an alternative to the establishment view. This idea brings into doubt the name 'Venta Caester' and its being English, especially when we consider that the Romans were far more materialistic and their society revolving around economics (markets) than the English Tribes. In fact, as far as I know the English did not use these 'cities' when the Romans left, since they lived much nearer to Nature and the Land. 

The Catherine Wheel is an 8-spoked wheel made up of two 'Fire-Wheels' (Swastikas), the one above being the sun-wise direction, though this may well vary over a long time. 

The South Downs is an area of chalk downs, and thus we could easily see this as the White Dragon, and since the capital of the English Tribes was Winchester, then this would be the 'Head of the Dragon', the central area or 'brain' of the Folk-Nation where the nation was ruled from. The 'Tail of the Dragon' is thus the Long Man of Wilmington, and this would be where the 'Sleeping-Goddess' (Kundalini) lies dormant. This area, as I have said before, appears to be some sort of 'Time-Clock', where the mound called Hunter's Burgh (Herne the Hunter) represents the Hale-Bopp Comet which appeared in the spring of 1997. I have in the past told of the Black Sun Ritual held there on August 10-11 1999, where 8 bottles of Millennium Ale shaped as a Widdershins Swastika were buried there, and a short rite done at 11.00am on 11th August as the 'Sun turned Black' - the 'Resurrection of Ingwe', brought back to life by the 'Power of the Black Sun'. 

Many scholars have pointed out that there is very little evidence of a 'Christ' from the Middle-East, and the Romans seem to have been unaware of his existence, which they obviously should have been. The whole basis of Judaeo-Christianity seems to rest upon the figure of 'St. Paul' (Saul of Tarsus) and of a Jewish Rebel against the Roman rule in Palestine. This seems to have been grafted upon the true Archetypal Krist in order to create a 'Messiah' for later times and the 'Second Coming'. No doubt the English and the Goths, as well as other Germanic Tribes, recognise that Ingwe was the Archetypal Krist - the 'Anointed One'. This is why we find the Old English Dream of the Rood so different from the biblical account, and much more heathen in form when read into.

The 'Age of Ing' is not the 'Age of Aquarius', for it is the transition-period between the Age of Pisces and the Age of Aquarius, and it is the Age of Heroes. This is a time when Folk-Heroes are sorely needed, the time of greatest oppression when the Dark Forces are in almost complete world control. The 'Age of Ing' is the 'Age of the Son', so here we must look into the 'Father of the Son', recalling that the 'Father' and the 'Son' are really one (Miguel Serrano). We know that Krist was called 'Son of the Widow', recalling the Egyptian Myth of Horus, Son of Isis (The Widow), whose spouse was slain by Set (The Dark One); Horus had to avenge the death of his father by slaying his brother, and this comes out (in part) in the mythology. However, although this is most often quoted as the source it is perhaps true to say that the Myth of Hamlet is much nearer to the original than the Egyptian version. This is the theme of this -

• The uncle slays his brother.
• The son of the brother acts 'the fool' as a 'simpleton' in order to fool the uncle, since he does not wish the uncle to know of his plans to slay his father's murderer.
• The 'Son of the Father' then slays the uncle, or brings about his destruction by his own hands.

This can be found in various ancient myths and legends from the Indo-Germanic world; we even find one of the archetypal 'Robin Hood' figures - William Tell - having a name 'Tell' which means 'fool' or 'simpleton'. 'The Father', as I have said before, could be seen as Waendal, and 'The Son' that of Ingwe. This is not out of the question since the figure of the Long Man being Waendal can be related to Orwaendal (Orvandil) whose name can mean 'Arrow-Waendal', and Orvandil is the father of Hamlet in Danish Lore. The father of Orwaendal is Garwaendal whose name means 'Spear-Waendal' relating to the Long Man who once held Twin Spears. In The Thirteenth Warrior we find the Vendel associated with the 'Fire-Serpent' which is important. We have Hunter's Burgh right next to the Long Man, and the usual weapon of the hunter is the Bow and Arrow. 

Apart from 'Arrow-Od' in the Norse Lays there seems to be no mention of Woden as an archer-god or bow-god, though this is the role of Wuldor (Ullr) who is a ski-god. However, the English did know of a (more ancient) role of Woden as a Bow-God - Robin Hood. Robin Hood was said to roam the forests of England wearing a cloak and a Red Hood; this is not well known since the 'Hollywood' versions always promote the 'Lincoln Green' (his role as 'The Green Man'). The name 'Robin Hood' can mean 'Fame-Bright Woden', though the term should actually be rendered 'Fame-Bright Hooden', this being an alternative form of Woden. This lives in the form of the 'Hooden Horse' in the mummy-plays in Kent. Whether a historical figure known as 'Robin Hood' existed does not matter, since this is an Aryan Archetype most likely linked to AEgil the Archer, brother of Wayland the Smith, as well as to Woden of the Esen-Gods. 

The 'Cerne Abbas Giant', whose name does not come from "Cernunnos" (which is Gaulish), was called Heil by the Saxons who dwelt in this area of Dorset, and is the figure of Herne the Hunter (Orion the Hunter). He is shown as a 'Club-God', the club being the symbolic weapon of the Mannerbund-God, and he is a form of 'Winter-Woden' (Orion is seen throughout the winter months here). He stands in a similar way to the Long Man (Cygnus the Swan - Summer), and he is obviously a God of Virility and Fertility. Attempts have been made to desecrate these ancient God-figures, the Long Man by 'Trinny and Susannah' and the Herne Giant by the makers of an Amazon film (where they put on him a 'nappy-mask'). The sickness of this rotten and corrupt society knows no bounds! The Gods of the Inge-Folk live on and their strength is growing. 

This figure, thought to be Woden, shows him riding a horse, accompanied by two birds (Ravens), holding a Spear, and seemingly 'taming' the Coiled Serpent below the spear. This, of course, could symbolise his control of the 'Dragon Force' that pulsates through the land, which was (as seen) the role of Mercury of the Romans. The control of this Dragon-Force may well be behind the ancient mythical struggle between the White Dragon (Germania) and the Red Dragon (Juda-Rome) in these islands. Gildas said that Britain was the central 'balance' of the world, hence the Eternal Struggle for domination of these islands. These Holy-Lines are very important to us in our struggle. 

Ingwe is associated with the Ram, if we take him to be similar to Heimdall; Agni is associated with the Bull. Agni is associated with the Seven Rishis (Seven Seers) and he is 'The Seer' himself; he is the 'Sacrificer' who presides over the sacrifice, which is the offering to the Gods, an exchange for their aid and help. In the Vedas we find how important Agni is, though in the Eddas and Germanic Mythology neither Heimdal nor Scef-Ing are given anywhere near this importance, which is why I am trying to put this right for us if I can. 

The Angirases are 'heroes and fighters' in the struggle, the quest for the Inner Light; this is somewhat like the ideas of Julius Evola who equates this struggle to an 'Inner' struggle, as well as seeing the external and physical form of it. It is interesting to note that the Angiras Rishis or Seven Rishis are associated with the Great Bear. Ingwe is the 'driver' of the Waen or Great Bear, the latter which is his 'wagon'; Ingwe is Bootes - the 'Ox-Driver'. It is interesting to note that the clans of Rishis (Seers) were not only the Angiras but the Atris and Bhrigu etc. the latter being the progenitor of the Bhrigurians to whom Agni came in the first place. The Angiras Rishis would have been the Divine Ancestors and founders of the Ur-Religion of the Aryans. They would be perhaps the equivalent to the Seven Angels ('messengers') of Ahura-Mazda of Iranian Myth. Their name Ang-iras is a nasalised form of gn the root of Agni, and the name would mean 'flaming' or 'burning' (angara), the word angati meaning 'fire'. 

The Ing-Rune is said to mean 'The Hero' or 'The Hero-God' and this is the meaning which best conveys his importance to us in the Age of Ing - the Age of the Hero. I have shown how 'The Mighty One' features in the Eddas as Rig, and Agni is referred to as 'The Mighty One'. He is also invoked as 'The Will', and a brother of Woden is Willa. There are so many facets to this theme which are entangled like a web, and we have also the god-force that arises after 'The Mighty One' - Wid-Ar the Avenger. 

When we refer to the 'First and the Last' or the 'Beginning and the End' we need to consider that an Aryan Avatar appears at the end of a world-age, in this case the Age of Pisces, and then reappears at the beginning of the next world-age, in this case the Age of Aquarius. The first appears at the Yuletide of the Great Year Cycle as the Wild Hunter-God of Destruction-to-Recreation, twinned with Rig-Manu who revives the Divine Order of the Gods (hierarchical Caste System), and who is there to save the Ancient Wisdom from the coming Great Flood. The 'Great Flood' can be seen as being symbolic in that this is the 'Waters of Dissolution' or 'Waters of Chaos' whence everything is sucked back into the Primal Chaos, out of which will arise a New Order and a New Man. 

Ingetheod - Inge's Folk (Part One).

In Psalm 112 of the Paris Psalter we find a clear reference to the English having recognised Ingwe as Krist. Although this is not stated outright the clear inference is there, and this is not the only work where the two are seen as one individual, or at least one archetype. In this work there is reference to haelynd drihten which translates as 'saviour lord'; there is also a statement heahita haeledha cynnes which is translated as 'highest hero-kin'. The latter gives us a clear clue to this since the Ing-Rune stanzas of the Old English Rune-Poem refer to Ing as 'The Hero'. The Psalm also uses the term Ingetheod meaning 'Ing's People' or 'Ing's Folk'. 

What is rather astounding about this is that Ingwe is clearly a very important god to the English, and yet scholars have, in the main, overlooked him altogether, except as the Ingvi-Frey of Norse Mythology. But it would seem that Ingvi-Frey means 'Lord Ing', in which case the original name of The Hero-God was Ingwe; even if we translate this as 'Son of the Lord' this would make no difference whatever. We have also the weapons which bear the name 'Gift of Ing', and also the reference in Beowulf to a sword named Ingelafe which means 'Ing-Bequest' ('Ing-Leaving' in a literal translation). 

Although it does mean repeating some of the stuff that I have already gone over, sometimes over and over, but I would like to go through this again to link the ideas with new ones which are very important to us in our struggle for freedom. In the past I have likened the Inge Archetype to that of the Heimdall Archetype, and there is good reason to see this having some foundation when we note the similarities between Ingwe and Agni and Heimdall and Agni. They may not be exactly the same, but they are likely both similar archetypes. There are problems with this, so firstly I shall note some interesting points to consider.

In Beowulf we have the lineage of Scef (Sheaf), Scyld (Shield) and Beow (Barley), and it is thus perhaps no coincidence that Ingvi Frey in Norse Mythology has a servant named Byggvir whose name can mean 'to settle', 'to cultivate', and is linked to the word bygg meaning 'barley'. Byggvir and Beyla (Bee) help Ingvi-Frey with his work, which is clearly (from the myths) connected to the World Mill - Grotte or Grotti. Ingvi-Frey is called Master of the Grotte, and the World Mill is (according to Viktor Rydberg) under the protection of the Vanir-Gods (Waene). 

The Long Man of Wilmington is Waendal who I have shown to be most likely the Mundilfore of Norse Myth - the Turner of the World Mill. The son of Mundilfore is Heimdall, who he sent down to mankind at the end of the Golden Age to bring to them agriculture, fire and the Caste System or Divine Order of the Gods. This can be seen when we see Heimdall and Scef as being one and the same archetype. In Vedic India this role was that of Manu, who was the first to use the Divine Fire with Bhrigu, when this was brought down by Agni to Earth. Manu and Agni are thus connected. Strictly speaking Mundilfore turns the handle of the World Mill since his name means 'handle' (from mondull meaning 'handle of mill', which itself stems from manthula meaning 'swing-tree', itself from manthati meaning 'to swing', to 'twist', or 'to bore'). The word manth refers to fire-by-friction. 

Agni is sent to mankind by his father (or symbolic father), Mataricvan, and sails over the waters just as Scef does, coming amongst the Bhrigurians, the Sons of Bhrigu. I will not go over this again but there are many parallels between Agni and Heimdall, and here are just a few -

• Agni is the 'husband of wives' just as Heimdal fathers the three Aryan Castes.
• Agni brought the Divine Fire, and taught man to live a fixed life around the hearth. Heimdal is a Fire-God, and Ingwe gives his name to the 'Inglenook' which is next to the hearth-fire.
• Agni is the 'pure, white god' and Heimdall is the 'Whitest of Gods'.
• Agni is, like Heimdall, the 'Watcher of the Gods'. 
• They are both associated with White Horses (Ingwe and Agni).
• Both Agni and Heimdall are called 'The Fast Traveller', the latter being no doubt Rata-tosk who travels up and down the World Tree as 'The Messenger of the Gods'. Heimdall is also 'The Borer' when he aids Woden in his quest to get the Sacred Mead from Knit Mountain. (Both rati and rata refer to travelling, usually in the sense of 'boring' - which hints that Rata-Tosk moves up and down the World Tree in a spiral movement.

The Bhrigurians were later called by the name Bhargavans which stems from bharg meaning 'to shine'. In Vedic India we have the two names Bhrigu and Manu which are direct parallels to the Berchter and Mannus of Germanic Lore. The word berchta means 'to shine', 'bright', 'clear', and we should recall the name of the area to which Scef (Ingwe) sailed - Scandi meaning The Shining Island. 

One of the many by-names of Heimdal is Vindler, stemming from vindill, itself coming from vinda meaning 'to twist', 'to turn', 'to coil' or 'to wind'. Looking back to Waendal we find that his name can mean 'to wind' or 'to turn', and as Mundilfore he is the Turner of the World Mill, and also brings creation into being through his turning of the Fire-Twirl. We can now see the clear connection between the Long Man (Waendal) and the Cweorth-Rune (Fire-Twirl). The rune can mean 'Cremation-Fire' but it has also the meaning of 'Fire of Creation'. This is important when we consider Rydberg's idea that Mundilfore and Lodhur and one and the same god, based upon the assumption that the name 'Lodhur' is connected to lodern meaning 'to blaze'. Lodhur was, with Woden and Hoenir, one of the Gods of Creation. Some see Lodhur as 'Loki' which could be a wrong assumption, for Loki is the God of Fire in its destructive form so Lodhur must be the God of Fire in its creative form. Hoenir is the 'Stork-God' or 'Heron-God' and in some cultures (like Egypt) the heron/stork is associated with creation. 

In the myth where Heimdal is said to have come to mankind in order to create the Caste System, and to bring the knowledge of kingship, aristocracy and rune-lore, he is not actually named as 'Heimdal' since the figure is named 'Rig', whose son is 'Earl'. He is Rig-Kon (Rig the King), whose son is Rig-Earl (Rig the Earl) and the title 'Rig' or 'Rik' is related to kingship. The name 'Kon' is related to the Ken-Rune - the Rune of Fire (this is important). There may be some link between the term 'Rig' here and the 'Rig-Vedas', but this is not found anywhere that I have looked. Perhaps we should not overlook the obvious though. Agni is associated with kingship, just as Ingwe is the archetypal Sacral King. 

The Long Man of Wilmington is connected to 'The April Fool' (Bootes) as well as to Cygnus the Swan, whose shape this makes. (I cannot prove this but this was made clear back in 1997 when all this was connected to the Hale-Bopp Comet). But it does link to the figure of the 'Dancing Wolf-Warrior' where Woden (The Mannerbund-God) is seen dressed much like 'The Fool'.) 

The Twin Spears are seen one pointing upwards, one downwards, suggesting the up-and-down movement along the World Tree, or the up-and-down movement along the Spinal Column - the movement of Agni-Inga as the Fiery-Serpent. The 'Dancing-Warrior' (Woden) holds within himself the Balance of Light and Darkness (the Solar-Lunar Horns). The spear held by the Wolf-Warrior points at the sole of the foot of the Warrior-God, which must have importance though this I must admit is not clear to me. 

So far we can put this together in some kind of order, though as with anything concerned with the esoteric this is not always 'black and white' -

Waendal - Scef-Ingwe, Son of Waendal, Scyld Scefing, Shield, Son of Sheaf, and Beow (Barley), Son of Scyld. The problem here equating Ingwe with Waendal is that the father of Ingvi-Frey is Njord, associated with the seas and ships. But this may not be such a problem when we consider that Ingwe is associated with the Waen which, when seen as the Great Bear, has him being the 'Mover of the Waen', these revolving around the North Star (Nail Star), and thus directly connecting these ideas to the World Mill, and the Turner of the World Mill. We must also recall that this is the Cosmic Mill, and the World Mill is the axis of the Earth, which itself needs a 'World Mill Turner'. Ingvi-Frey and Ing are both linked to a 'wagon'; Nerthus is also linked to a 'wagon' which is another point we need to consider.

In the figure of 'Cuthman' ('Known-Man' or 'Kin-Man') we find him pushing his 'barrow' (wagon or waen) which resembles the Great Bear/The Plough. As such Ingwe could be seen as the 'Ploughman' and we do find Cuthman connected to oxen, since at first his barrow is pulled by oxen. The 'twig' that his 'mother' holds could represent the World Tree, though this is just a guess. She also holds a leather bottle, or what looks like a leather bottle, though this is not clear either in form or as a symbol. Jesus Christ is clearly linked to Bootes -

"And I looked and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of Man (Bootes), having on his head a Golden Crown (Corona Borealis), and in his hand a sharp sickle. 

Revelation 14:14.

The fact that the 'Golden Crown' is 'toppled' (as my good friend Hamasson pointed out) gives rise to the question as to where the term 'Corona-Virus' actually originated, and why this term was used. 

Bootes is 'The Anointed One', who is also 'The True Krist' (Alpha & Omega - the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last), who is also King Arctor, the 'Once and Future King', who is also Aragorn, the 'Rightful King', whose 'crown' is toppled through the powers that were responsible for the French Revolution and every other 'Revolt of the Slaves' that came after, the forces that put into practice the ideas of Karl Marx. The 'Second Coming' is that of the Omega who appears at the 'end' as 'the last', who is also the Alpha who appears at the 'beginning' as 'the first'. 

"Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened (Solar Eclipse August 11th 1999) and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven.....(Perseid Meteor Shower August 12th 1999)"...

And then shall appear the Sign of the Son of Man in heaven (the Ing-Rune/Cross of Fro-Inge)."

St Matthew 24:29.

"In the year 1999 and seven months, from the sky will come the great King of Terror (Black Sun - Solar Eclipse). He will bring back to life ('resurrect') the great King of Angolmois (King of the Angles - Ingwe). Before and after Mars (war) reigns happily."

Nostradamus Century 10:72.

In August 1999 the Age of Ing was conceived, and the God of the English - Ingwe - was 'resurrected'. We need to look at the third part of The Omen to see how the True Krist would be born in the 'Angel Isle' (England) around the time of March 24th - Heimdal's Day. This is also connected to the Hale-Bopp Comet and the events of March 24th 1997. At this time there was a Lunar Eclipse which fits here with the section in St. Matthew 'and the moon shall not give her light'. 

We have established that Ingwe is the God of the New Age, he is the 'Son of Man' (Aryan Krist) and he is the 'Son of the Widow', which was a title given to The Krist, and adopted by the Freemasons for their own uses. The Age of Ing was conceived on August 11th 1999 and is the Age of Heroes mentioned as the 'liminal period' between the Age of Pisces and the Age of the Water-Pourer (Aquarius). We can see in the Daily Mail clipping of August 1999 how Uranus (God of the New Age) is in Aquarius. The symbol of Aquarius is 'The Man' - the 'God-Man'. 

There are so many traditions and cultures that have words that mean 'man' which also seem to have been originally 'hero', a particular type of man - 'Divine Hero' in fact, the mix between Man and the Gods. We find this in some Greek Heroes such as Hercules, Perseus, and others who are half-man and half-god - Divine Heroes. This may be the original meaning to the words used for 'man' such as vira/wera and other the word for 'man' in Tocharian -

Tocharian A - onk 

Tocharian B - enkwe

Both of these are akin to 'inge', and this also brings into question the origins of the Ingas (Inkas was a later spelling) and to the Sumerian-Babylonian god named Enki. There may be no connection at all with these, but we should certainly keep an open mind on this. Now we shall look at the figure of Ingwe in regard to his rule as king -

• King Ingvi was the first ruler of Sweden (Historia Norwegie). He was the father of Neorth, and the Father of Frey. 
• In the Skjoldunga Saga he is the brother of Scioldus, and son of Odin.
• In Snorri Yngvi is a Swedish King of Trojan descent, a son of Odin.
• In the Heimskrimla Saga we read 'Freyr was called Yngvi by another name'. 

Certainly, both the Norwegians and the Swedes were Ynglingas whose ruler was Ingvi-Frey at one time, but as the brother of Scyld he would be Danish, and we find the Old English Rune-Poem telling us that he was first seen amongst the 'East-Danes'. We do know that Uppsala was the centre of worship of Ingvi-Frey and his burial-mound is said to be on this site. But the only people to have the name 'Ing' as title is the English, and there are so many connections between Danes, Swedes and English here in these islands. Indeed, the Long Man of Wilmington seems to have connections to Sweden, as do the Wuffingas (Wulfingas) of East Anglia, and the Uffingas around the White Horse, Dragon Hill and Wayland's Smithy. We should thus recall that the Ynglingas were the ruling royal lines in Scandinavia and that Angul (Angles) and Dan (Danes) were brothers. In Wodenic Lore we see the Seven Swords of Wayland to be symbolic of the Seven Tribes of Ingwe whom came together to form the English Folk-Nation.

There is yet another important point to consider here, and that is the link to The Hooded Man or The Fool who, as 'Hamlet' (Danish Myth), is connected to the World Mill, as is Helgi Hundingsbane who hides in a mill, dressed as a woman (don't tell Marvel or Disney or this will be twisted to suit their aim of insulting our culture, myth and people. 

There are many overlaps between the Angles and Saxons, the latter who have the 'Sword-God' as their Divine Ancestor; Ingwe is a Sword-God as we find from the Incglafe - Ingce-Leaving. Ingvi-Frey has a sword which he gave up in order to woo Gerda (The Earth). According to one account the Saxons left their original homeland in the North led by Ansgisl, where 'gisl' is a mythic name for horse, and a name also used by the Frisians (Aldagisl is the father of Raedbad the Frisian). The Langobards have as their 'Divine Twins' Aggo/Ajo and Ebor/Ibor, whose names, according to Rydberg, are akin to Ochta and Ebissa, kin of Hengest. He links Ajo to Weland the Smith, and Ebor to Egil the Archer. This we need not go into, but Widukind (Chronicle 860) has the Saxons being led by Hadugoto, the prefix Hadu- being found amongst the Old Saxons. Seaxnot was the God of the East Saxons - the Sword-God. 

The Firestone - 'Gift of Ing'

As I have shown before this may be dated back to the 6th Century CE, which is not too long after Hengest and Horsa arrived in what was to become England. The 'Gift of Ing' is the Divine Fire of the Gods (The Serpent-Fire), but this may also have another meaning to it which is hinted at in the Ingce-Lafe (Ing's Leaving) which is the Sword of Ingwe. If we see the shape of the carved stone as a form of 'man' within which is the 'Gift of Ing' then this is the 'Gift of Immortality' which transforms Man into the God-Man. Very often in mythology we find that 'Man' and 'Sword' are indeed interchangeable terms, one symbolic of the other. Could the Sword of Ingwe be Hunlafing Hildeleoman (Hun-Leaving Battle-Flame [of the Dragon]), the Sword of AEtla passed to Hengest who took upon himself the Wyrd of AEtla? This blade is the 'Bane of the Joten', well known to the 'Eaters of the Dead Souls', carved with the Runes of Destruction of the Dark Joten. This sword was forged in the breath of the White Dragon, and is the Magical Sword of Ingwe (Hengest). 

The Inga-Fire or Fire of Ingwe is symbolised by the Kan-Rune, as found on the White Stone of Ing; this is the Fiery-Serpent or Kundalini-Fire which lies dormant at the base of the spine, at the base of Iggdrasil. It is Ingwe - as Rata-Tosk - who awakens the Fiery-Serpent through the downward-movement of the Solar-Energy which arouses the 'Sleeping Goddess' (Sleeping Beauty) who then moves in an upwards-movement, uniting at the Head Centre (Odroerir) with Woden (Shiva); thus takes place the Divine Marriage of the God and Goddess, whose fusion is then taken a stage further in their separation in which the Woden Initiate transmutes the 'I' into the 'Absolute I' (Don Miguel Serrano). 

Ing & the Inglingas ('Sons of Ing').

Saka & the Saka-Sons ('Sons of Saka').

Both are Sword-Gods so could Seaxnot be the same as Ingwe? The term Seax (Short Sword) added to Not (Need-Fire) may suggest that this link could be made, but we cannot be sure of this and it is merely a guess. We find that there also seem to be links with the Sword of the Wolsungas and the Sword of Arminius, but the problem lies in that Armin or Arman seems to represent the Priest-King Caste, and Ingwe is of the Craftsman-Provider Caste, though there may here be a link to the Sword-Smith, and 'blacksmiths' were very often associated with the Magician and Kingship (the Sacral King?). We may, of course, be speaking here of the differences between the AEsir-Gods (Woden) and the Waene-Gods (Ingwe), the latter whose kingship was perhaps different, maybe more associated with peace and plenty, the fertile land, and the fertile folk. Both, however, are associated with war since in wartime there is need of new births to take the place of the fallen warriors. 

The word 'saka' stems from a root meaning 'to cut' or 'to cleave', thus the link to the sword.

The Hidden Current

Throughout history we find that there has been a hidden underground current which has been suppressed by such organisations as the Christian Church, but it has also been suppressed before this time, over and over again in different societies. There are two examples that can be found in the most ancient times in India and pre-Zoroastrian Persia. In India these were the Vratyas who were bands of notorious raiders, usually seen to be non-Aryan, but whose role seems to cast great doubt upon that, especially in view of the role of Woden and the Mannerbund. We find Zoroaster suppressing such cults in ancient Persia, and clearly these are Aryan Cults that work in the same way as the Cult of Woden - they are Left-Hand Path Cults.

In India the Vratya were an Oath-Brotherhood, the term meaning both 'oath'/'vow' and 'brotherhood'; they were a form of Mannerbund, a band of young men, an age-set. The Vratya-Leader had -

• A stick and a bow.
• Black garb & skins.
• A silver necklace.
• Long hair and a turban.

The chief god of the Vratya was Rudra who was a bow-god, whose arrows brought disease and death. As a death-god he could also avert disease and death. The leader of the band wore black and some accounts say that the band wore the same, though others say they wore red. It is usual to associate these war-bands with the wearing of wolf-skins, and also a belt around the waist, the 'buckle' being over the Hara-Centre of the body. They blackened their faces using soot and animal-fats. The Harii, a Germanic Warrior-Band, blackened their faces and took on a skeletal appearance as the Army of the Dead. 

These aspects have been covered in older posts so there is no need to go into them again. What is of importance is that the Cult of Odin appeared once more through the Vikings, and that the Cult of Woden drove on the Anglo-Saxons to take back these lands from the Judaeo-Christians, as well as the rebellion against the Norman-Barons and their Feudal Order. It is Woden who leads the Divine Revolt against the Demiurge; this is where he is sometimes compared to Lucifer who is also the Leader of a Divine Revolt. There is a great deal of confusion over the figure of Lucifer so we need not cover this here. We have also the figure of the 'rebel' Prometheus who aids mankind by stealing the Divine Fire from the Gods, and is punished by Zeus for doing so. Again, we have the idea of a hero-figure who 'rebels' or 'defies the system' in order to help mankind.

In both the Myth of Knit Mountain and the Saga of Sigurd and Fafnir it should be noted that the Giant or the Dragon takes the 'treasure' (of whatever kind) and they hoard it for themselves. At no time are we told that they actually use the treasure, be it the Sacred Mead or the Gold-Hoard. The one key factor may be that in both cases the stolen treasure is kept hidden and is in an underground cave or deep within a mountain. It is hidden away from the light of day, here suggesting that this may be in the subconscious mind at a personal level. Thus, the means by which the Aryan Hero regains the treasure is to look within himself. To do so is not just to 'look within' but to overcome and slay a Giant or Dragon that 'guards' the treasure, without which it cannot be regained. This is just one level of meaning, of course.

Not many of the English know that their 'St. George' is a 'foreign' import, although this is not strictly speaking the case because we would have had Beowulf or Siegmund as the Dragon-Slayer, and 'St. George' is merely a similar archetype. In fact, he is an interesting figure when we look at how he was seen by the Ossetes, for he was a Mannerbund-God with a connection to the Wolf. Their term Waerxaerg is connected to the Iranian vrka meaning 'wolf' or more precisely 'wolf of the outside' (warg). We could well look towards the figure of 'Robin Hood' in regard to the Cultic Brotherhoods, since he has 12 Merry Men and lives in the wild forests. The 12 + 1 = 13 makes these 'unlucky', and perhaps why this number was given such a meaning. They are 'Wolf's Heads' - Outlaws. 

It is interesting to note that the 'Jesus Christ' of the New Testament has 12 disciples, again 12 + 1 = 13. Here he has Judas the Betrayer who is perhaps the 'Thirteenth', and this is interesting in view of one of the 'Merry Men' of Robin Hood - Will Scarlet. Now, The original name is 'Will Scathlock' and here we can see the figure of Loki, since the name would mean 'Will Shadow-Loki', and his role originally may have been far more sinister. It would be interesting to know why the name became corrupted into 'Scarlet'. The 'Christ' of the New Testament preaches the road to immortality when he says - 'To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the Tree of Life'. This is the aim of the Left-Hand Path.

We are here faced with the idea that the exoteric religions have always been designed for the masses, but the esoteric cults (The Hidden Current) have been always for an elite, the few who could obtain immortality through their own sacrifices and effort. In some cases it seems obvious that the exoteric religions heavily persecuted the esoteric cults, but there may be exceptions to this when we consider the 'Mystery Religions' that seem to have formed an 'Inner Cult' within the exoteric religion. 

Things are not always 'black and white' in life and history at times has distorted the truth which if left alone would make things far clearer. It is not well know that there is a clear reference to the use of a Volva (Seidr Witch) using her magic in the 11th Century CE. This would not seem surprising if it were not for the fact that the Volva was sent for by William the Conqueror in order to lead his forces against a rebellion by the English in the Fens. This is after 1066, well after the time the Normans were said to have been converted, and this was by a Norman King! This is where we should consider carefully the purges against the 'witches', since some of these would have been remnants of the old pagan religions - not all though, as accounts show. These pagan remnants would have continued underground when the great oppression got hold.

We do not have enough information as to the Knights Templar, the Rosicrucians, and other esoteric cults, as to whether they were Left-Hand Path Cults dedicated to the Way of the Immortals. What we do know for sure is that certain Alchemical Cults were certainly dedicated to the Way of the Immortals, since the whole process is one in which the candidate strives to overcome the human in himself in order to become an Immortal. 

A word on 'seeing' since this is an important part of all this. The exoteric religions preach about 'faith', having 'faith' in something else than yourself. Simply put this means believing something because someone else tells you to do so. That is 'faith'. 'Seeing' was the most ancient way, since it meant experiencing the divine through direct revelation, whether this was 'seeing' or 'hearing', or we could even say 'sensing'. Seeing is direct knowledge from the divine. The same goes for 'prayer' which is asking someone else for help, whilst we find the Aryan Hero may go against the Will of the Gods - as did Prometheus. This can also apply to Sigdrifa/Brunhilde who went against the Will of Woden, and for this was, like Prometheus, punished for the 'offence'. The Hero is sometimes aided by the gods, but not usually through being asked to do so. 

The Legend of Sigurd is fundamentally important to us in our times, to understand what we need to do and why we need to do it. Sigurd slays the dragon Fafnir who hoards the Ancient Gold (Solar Knowledge); he does so with a sword forged by Regin ('The Powers') the sword-smith. Twice the sword broke and we have two versions of the next part, one claiming Sigurd forged it himself, the other that Regin forged it again, but this time right. Whatever the case, Sigurd slew his teacher, Regin, after the sword was forged: Regin was plotting to kill him and take the sword. Sigurd cuts out the Heart of the Dragon and cooks and eats it, drinking of the Blood of the Dragon - He becomes a Dragon-Lord. Whilst cooking the heart he burns his finger and puts it to his mouth, whence he hears the 'Language of the Birds' - he becomes one with Nature. 

What is important here is that he eats the Heart of the Dragon (The Soul) and drinks the Blood of the Dragon (Spirit), thus taking into himself the Essence of the Dragon. It is necessary, in our time as much as in past times, to sometimes work at the very same level as one's enemies, especially when faced with a particularly evil force which can only be overcome by coming down to the same level. This is why Woden is such a very different god, one who is Goden-Joten by birth (as are others) and whose role is darker and more sinister at times. He must act as he does because it is necessary to defeat such an enemy. 

Both Sigurd (Cult of Woden) and Sigdrifa (Cult of Freya) act in much the same way here; Sigurd slays his teacher Regin (Regal Power and Craftsman) whilst Sigdrifa defies her 'sovereign', Woden, and is pricked with a 'Sleep-Thorn'. She can only be awakened by the Aryan Hero; from there they both separate and go their own ways, each on their own 'quest'. There is here a very interesting point because the Black-Smith or Sword-Smith has always been associated with magic and mysticism. There are hints that they were also connected to the Left-Hand Path since whilst the horseshoe is symbolic of 'Good Luck' when placed with the open end upwards, it was placed open end downwards by the Black-Smith. 

Every exoteric religion or spiritual discipline has as its aim the dissolution of the ego at death and the absorption back into the 'All', the 'One', 'Cosmic Consciousness', 'God', or even 'Nature' as the Wiccans believe. Opposed to this was the Hidden Current which embraced the idea of preserving the individual ego and through the right spiritual path and life strengthening and transforming the ego into the Absolute I (Don Miguel Serrano). There seems little point to me in being born with the ego, the ability to be self-aware, self-conscious, and then to lose this on death, unless the process is all part of the on-going path which we take, which has to be different for those on a different level of spiritual development. 

The Path of the Immortals is the 'Solar Way', the 'Way of the Gods' where the individual retains his 'I', transmutes this into the 'Absolute I', and thus takes his place as a Divine Hero, able, after his stay on Valhalla, to return at will to continue the Eternal Struggle. The secret of the Nyd-Rune shows how the sword is thrust into the pillar ('The I') representing the broken ego; it is the role of the Aryan Hero to remove the Sword from the Pillar, thus making the ego whole again. 

There may well be a great secret hidden here, for both the 'pillar/tree' and the 'sword' may well symbolise the ego itself. In the first instance the ego is broken (Nyd-Rune) and taking the Sword from the Tree making the ego whole again, and in the second instance it is the Sword itself that is broken, and which the Aryan Hero has to reforge anew. Both may represent the fact that the Aryan Hero needs to become aware of who he really is, become aware of his 'being' or 'I-ness' in order to fulfil his Divine Mission here in Middle-Earth. We find in some cases where a god-force is to incarnate as an avatar they have to take a draft which erases their memory of who they are and their Divine Mission. Maybe what we are seeing here is that the Divine Hero must regain his memory of 'self' and the 'I' in order to know who he really is, and what he is really destined to do.

The ego, of course, has become rather more of a problem today in that it produces in the mass of people a self-centredness which makes them unaware of anyone else and the consequences of their own actions. This is where the idea of getting rid of the ego starts to become more and more prominent, but this overlooks the true nature of the human ego. In the lost Golden Age mankind was totally innocent - as children - unaware of himself in regard to self-awareness and self-consciousness. This Golden Age ended, but it was prophesied to return, but logic tells us that there would be a need to regain this state but at a different level of being. From the Age of Innocence, to the Age of Youth (the wild Aryan Warrior and his wars, conquests and empires), and then onto maturity and a stage where we grow into adults, with self-awareness and self-consciousness, with the ability to know what is right and wrong (we have been learning) - to become 'as gods', by transforming into the God-Man. Without developing the ego this would never be possible. But...in order to got through this whole process we have to have some form of opposition to this, and this has arisen again and again throughout the ages. 

The esoteric form must go along the Left-Hand Path because it needs to be there for the Aryan Heroes to develop and to strive to regain their divine status as the Divine Heroes (Viras). But there has to be an exoteric religion that takes the right-hand path, and this is for the many rather than the few. In Folkish Wodenism Woden's Folk fulfils the former role, and the Woden Folk-Community fulfils the latter role.
