A Heathen New Year 2020/2021

Greetings and Happy New Year!

   2020 was a peculiar year to say the least, we saw global panic and severe lockdowns over a virus that has a survival rate of some 98 plus per cent, we saw the media make martyrs from blatant criminals, we saw our heritage and legacy tarnished and humiliated by mobs who vandalized and tore down our historic statues, not to mention the constant disparaging of our people in the media, which was consequently ramped up after the BLM Marxist terrorists were granted what they demanded.

  Other events and issues occurred as well, and all of them have left us with a very uprooted and debased feeling of uncertainty. We know not what lay ahead for us and our folk. On one hand, things look bleak, dark and very dismal. Talks of a mandatory vaccination system lingers above everyone's heads, and the promising prospects of an incoming Biden/Harris administration reveals plenty of new threats for us that would come down from the highest powers in America. Talks of outlawing online sales of ammo, gun parts, parts kits, magazines, and firearms themselves (which still get sent to your local gun dealer to do a background check prior to sale as it stands now), as well as talks of criminalizing anything perceived as "White Nationalism", which could be anything as simple as wanting your people to remain healthy and to exist, as well as our spiritual path of Folkish Heathenry. A top BLM Marxist negro named Sasha Johnson is even calling for a "race offender registry" to be put in place that would make "micro-aggressions" against non-whites an offense. This would bar such 'offenders' from being able to acquire employment. These are just a handful of the recent issues. There are tons of other issues that need to be addressed as well.

  Now on the other hand, we do have some White Pills. For one, our people keep waking up to their true, traditional, folk beliefs. They are hearing the Gods calling. They are waking up and finding the missing elements of tribalism that our people need for our prosperity, happiness, and survival. The less we are attached to the system and philosophy (if one can accurately call it that) of multiculturalism and liberalism, the more we free ourselves from the restraints, and the more awakened we feel, even those of us who recognize multiculturalism as detrimental to our survival and well-being. Folkish Heathen organizations and communities are growing as well, which is very promising and a trend we have not had since the Renaissance Era, and even that does not match the folkish awakening we are currently experiencing. Along with these cultural epiphanies and revelations, we are also experiencing an awakening of mythos, ethos, and a consequential philosophical Weltanschauung.

    This philosophical Weltanschauung that I refer to is the mode of being and overarching worldview that our people are starting to awaken to. The path we have gone down has begun to lead us to deeper layer of this Folkish Heathen ancestral soul, and that would be the way in which we perceive and operate in the world. At this point it is worth noting the etymology of the word "world", which comes from the Old English "worold" meaning "human existence, the affairs of life", or more contextually "The realm of life relative to how we experience and perceive it". To a degree, we can change "the world" according to how we, as a people, choose to create it. To manifest our "ideal" into being.

  As we break free and come home, we are starting to take back the determination of our culture and our people, and one such way in which this will occur is by the necessity of Barbarism. I do not mean Barbarism in the negative sense that the modern world has placed upon it, no. When I talk about Barbarism I am referring to an entire philosophy that encompasses a rejection of the decadence of the modern world, to reject the propaganda of Hollywood and television, to refuse degenerate music, a willingness to do without the bulk of amenities that the modern world uses to bind us to a system that overrides our survival instinct, a rejection of the breaking and domestication of our souls and minds, and perhaps most crucially, an understanding and great respect for power and force, and the ability to treat such elements as sacred or God-like. To tap into this is to understand Tyr, Thor, and Odin. It is to better understand our ancestors and where we come from. To unlock the esoteric Weltanschauung of our barbarian ancestors. It is to call upon the Gods and our ancestors as a means of fighting for our folk.

  The reason why this is such a White Pill is that it represents the blossoming promise of a better future for our people. An era of independence for our people, free from the subjugation of foreign religions, ideologies, nations, and philosophies. An era where we once again hold the helm that determines the means in which our folk traverse the vast unknown. To take back our destiny. This philosophy and Weltanschauung of Barbarism is what lead the great men of our race to rise up and throw the spear into the eye of their enemies and offenders in the past. It is Hermann (Arminius) humiliating the Romans, it is the Gauls who sacked Rome while "in the raw", it is William Wallace who stood up to Edward Longshanks even when it lead to him paying with his blood (and yet still winning), it is Ragnarr Loþbrók when he lead the siege on Paris in 845, it is the Samogitians of Lithuania in the 13th century when they seized the advantage over the invading crusaders, slaying Volkwin von Naumburg zu Winterstätten in the swamps at the Battle of Saule and extinguishing the crusaders from their land. It is the understanding and willingness to fight for what you know is right and to have the stubborn and relentless drive to persevere against all things that threaten your people when the odds seem to be completely stacked against us.

   As Folkish Heathens, we should apply this to all aspects of life. This is what I mean when I say that we must allow this to become a pillar of our Weltanschauung. It is a force which need not be restricted to the sword, but a force which can fuel the pen, career goals, fitness, acquiring a spouse to start a family with (though I would advise against raiding towns and seizing their most beautiful of women, at least not by force), impulsivity and self discipline, etc. This is an immensely powerful tool and we must seek to further understand it, value it, and utilize it for the advancement of the individual, who in turn serves our folk at large by being am asset to our greater tribal structure.

   And in all of this, we have tapped into a metaphysical, and very deep, arcane and at times, mystically abstruse tool. A conduit that transcends into the very realm of mythos and ethnos of our folk long forgotten. A key to unlock an esoteric war chest. To pick up the long lost pieces of the swords, spears and axes of our ancestors, to heat them up, hammer off the slag, and to craft a new, reborn, arsenal of swords, spears, and axes that will lead us forward, not just in 2021, but for millennia to come! Hacking to pieces the metaphorical and literal obstacles that block the determination and prosperity of our folk! To become a force to be reckoned with that strikes fear into the eternal enemies of our folk.

  And I tell you this! Use this sword in your daily life. Use it in the gym, when physically training for combat, when commencing down a path of knowledge, when making self-improvements, when building a career, growing your financial strength, and when conjuring the self-discipline required to get a family in order, amongst many other tasks that serve the growth of our people, as individuals as well as a nation of peoples at large.

   Make this your New Year's resolution, and your motivation for the future. But understand, with such a great tool comes great respect, responsibility and care. And this sword will be of little use unless you keep the blade sharp, oiled, and practice it as to hone your skills. This sword is only as effective as you are, it is useless without you. So practice with it by implementing it into the various aspects of your daily life.

   Wear it at your side at all times. So pull the sword of Barbarism from the stone, for 2021 and beyond. Own it, use it, care for it and pass it on to your children, for it is a tool that serves the very survival and prosperity of our lineage and folk.

  Happy New Year and be well,
