HOW ON EARTH...

Did Mike Ashley manage to get £35 million for Andy Carroll?

DIRECT HIT!!

I performed a Tarot party last month, and one of the clients was heavily pregnant. I asked when it was due, "1 week" she replied. I advised her it would be 3 weeks, or on the 3rd. Sure enough 3 weeks to the day she had her child.

That is what I call a Direct hit!

Heathen Pagan or Asatru?

What should we call ourselves? Everyone should have an identity, only we seemed to be lessed with the wrong names!

At first I told poeple that I was a Heathen, and said it with pride, for that is what I believed I was! Then the bombshell hit that Heathen was a derogitory name given to us by the Christians, as someone who was uncilvlised and living on the heath! I live in the town, and feel that I am very civilised thank you, therefore Heathen went out of the window!

So, I thought to myself, If I can not be a Heathen, I had better call myself a Pagan! Like so many others, I proudly told the world who and what I was, but what is a Pagan? According to the dictionary:

Paganism (from Latin paganus, meaning "country dweller", "rustic"[1]) is a blanket term, typically used to refer to polytheistic religious traditions, although from a Christian perspective, the term can encompass all non–Abrahamic religions.

Well blow me! It meant exactly the same thing!!!!

So should anybody ask me what I beleive I now say that I am Asatru, a name not made up by a Christian, and that describes exactly where I come from. Yes, some people may ask what that is, but that gives the chance to educate them to the glory of the Aesir!

I urge others to do the same and dump the preconcieved Christian slurs that have hung upon us for almost 2000 years!

HAIL THOR AND HIS KINDRED!

Twenty Five Years Too Late!

At long last the Trade Union movement has awoken! The threats of the Con-Dem Government have forced them to realise only constructive, well co-ordinated action, in the name of the people will suffice!

The only shame is that if they had shown such resolution in the 80's, the Labour party would have had no choice but to jump on the socialist bandwagon and the Thatcher years would have been shortened considerably, and today's talk of action would not have been required!

May Thor protect them against these political frost giants!

Freyfest

Freyfest has come and gone, and I have made my sacrifices and gave my thanks. Others think I am mad, but I know the Gods will smile on me for standing up for them (not that they need me to, but they will appreciate the effort alll the same).

Hail the Aesir!

Pagan Acceptance by UK Ministry of Defence

It is with a very glad heart that I can report that the UK press have revealed that there are OFFICIALLY 100 known Pagans within the UK Armed Forces.

Now 100 seems a small figure compared to the 100,000 that make up the armed forces, but 10 years agao the report would have been laughed at!

The MOD have accepted our religion as a legitimate group, so where next? The Police????

Civic Duties called!

It has been a while since I have had the chance to write anything, this was due to the fact that I was serving on a jury.

Naturally, I will not be divulging any details of the case, but I am proud to say that I made my oath, and kept it, judging on the facts presented.

Being summoned to Jury service gives you many thoughts, including where the concept came from, ie. our pagan ancestors. It is refreshing to know that something that was directed by the Gods all those centuries ago is still alive today, and is taken just as seriously!

On a lighter note, I am now a year older, though maybe not wiser! I hope the Gds and Norns will allow me many more years, and allow me to bring prosperity to the clan.

Hail Odin! Hail Thor! Hail The Aesir and Vanir!
