Anglo-Saxon Heathenry

A believer in Fyrnsidu, I am a Fyrnsidere

While I primarily follow Anglo-Saxon gods, I do worship some Norse ones.

Anglo-Saxon paganism is closely related to the more popular Norse paganism.

There are gods in my belief that do not exist in the Norse one, and vice versa. For example, the god Saxnot does not appear in Norse paganism. That does not mean that Saxnot is lesser, it is simply a difference in religion. Just as Loki does not appear in Anglo-Saxon paganism.

In my polytheistic belief, I believe that the gods from all religions exist, but I do not worship them all. But given how closely related Anglo-Saxon and Norse paganism are, I draw gods and beliefs from Norse paganism.

I think that the Anglo-Saxon god Thunor and the Norse god Thor are related but not the same deity, for example. While I respect Thor, I do not worship him. I worship Thunor.

I have an animistic worldview and I worship my blood and heart ancestors, which can be found in both religions.

On a note, both Fyrnsidu and Asatru have unfortunately attracted racists and ethnonationalists, which is unacceptable. The gods do not belong to one group and I promise you that they do not want anything to do with your racist, xenophobic self.

Racists are not welcome! We do not want you nor do we claim you. Fuck off. The gods belong to everyone.
