Gullible idiots are a permanent staple human existence

Happy Ostara!! 😀

Eostre is solely an English Deity and it is pronounced Ay-Uh-ster in Old English. It means East, Dawn,Venus the Morning Star. The Englisc wrote very little down anyway hence the lack of evidence. English Heathenry is Very different and NOT a branch of Norse Mythology. It evolved largely by itself.

Pardon me for asking this here, but I wonder if you know A Modern Herbal by Mrs Grieve? I have great interest in the plant Angelica, spring is coming .
"–History—Its virtues are praised by old writers, and the name itself, as well as the folk-lore of all North European countries and nations, testify to the great antiquity of a belief in its merits as a protection against contagion, for purifying the blood, and for curing every conceivable malady: it was held a sovereign remedy for poisons agues and all infectious maladies. In Couriand, Livonia and the low lakelands of Pomerania and East Prussia, wild-growing Angelica abounds; there, in early summer-time, it has been the custom among the peasants to march into the towns carrying the Angelica flower-stems and to offer them for sale, chanting some ancient ditty in Lettish words, so antiquated as to be unintelligible even to the singers themselves. The chanted words and the tune are learnt in childhood, and may be attributed to a survival of some Pagan festival with which the plant was originally associated. After the introduction of Christianity, the plant became linked in the popular mind with some archangelic patronage, and associated with the spring-time festival of the Annunciation. According to one legend, Angelica was revealed in a dream by an angel to cure the plague. Another explanation of the name of this plant is that it blooms on the day of Michael the Archangel (May 8, old style), and is on that account a preservative against evil spirits and witchcraft: all parts of the plant were believed efficacious against spells and enchantment. It was held in such esteem that it was called 'The Root of the Holy Ghost.'"
Thank you for your work, I like your voice.

I still refer people to your previous
video about Eostre 🙂

Happy Spring Equinox xxx

Kitty!:333 That's one happy cat, good man Arith o7
In my PUGspace I've noticed that (god)s haven't been so concerned with names, Eris (All Hail) has never even claimed the name, calling her that seemed to endear her to me and since She can be equally Glorious and Terrible I thought being endearing was just sensible, plus you have the distinctions between things like the Orphic Hymns (were she comes off as brutal though I'd point out finishing off the gravely wounded IS also merciful, perhaps it's more appropriately done with glee than out modern sense of decorum implies).
My partners, those Persons of a Spiritual nature to whom I am within covenant bound for our shared benefit, have been far more concerned with things like names and details.
It makes sense to me since I know from a certain angle I've made all this up but I think it's important to note that making it up was required to create in my mind fantastic ideas that would even ALLOW any level of communication.
Indeed, I am saying I actually believe one can make up a deity in their mind and have them apparently manifest "out of nothing" but it's more like someone who have never seen The Ocean but has seen lakes or streams and can feel perhaps the tides in our blood, because our blood is almost entirely Seawater, even if we never ever see the Sea (Dee de de de)

Hello from America! Are y’all open to having immigrants from here, moving there? Some of us want to escape before it’s too late! I myself love it here and don’t have financial means to leave if I wanted to! Long live the king! Haha. Not funny 😢

I am so glad I gave up on Reconstructionist Practice and returned to Animistic Practice. All the debating between various Folk Heathen factions is beyond tiresome. Same with the debates between Heathenry and Neopaganry…

Thank you for another interesting and knowledgeable video. Many blessings to you and yours, dear Arith! I hope things are moving along well for you 🖤

More cat scenes plz

Claiming exclusivity over a celebration….. I'd rather share a celebration with others.

Happiest Ostara!🎉

Thank you for your time 🐈‍⬛️🌻

I like to think of eostre as a Freya tradition. Like the goddess In her summer form.

Celebrating my first Ostara, not Easter! Feels so right and good!

Being from northern Germany Osnabruck my parents and grand parents always said Frohe Ostern. The river that runs through the city I was born in is called the Hase or the Hare.
