Even The Gods Must Die

To who it may concern, I am a solitary practitioner of Northern Traditional Shamanism, embedded with the colorful backdrop of Norse Paganism, or Heathenism. I have made it my goal to learn as much as possible about the majority of the divination fields. With Runeworking being my most accomplished trait, I consider myself a trained Vitki, or Rune Master. If you have any questions on the pathways of Heathenism, Runes, or Shamanism, please feel free to message me. I am an open book, waiting to teach those who are willing to learn the old ways.

Still traveling, freedom of the world, and beauty is in anyone’s hand. Just gotta make that jump

Hello friends, and followers. I’ve been pretty inactive on this account over the past couple years. I do apologize, it seems a lot of you enjoyed my content, but I needed a change of pace. I left house life, and started traveling the country about three years ago. I’ve lived out of a backpack, in an RV, Van, and now currently out of a Kia Soul. I needed to get away from the constraints of a box, and the obligations of a dead end job, and I’ve made the best of it. It’s been an extremely rewarding experience, I’ve seen so much, and met so many people. It’s been a huge period of learning, and growth. I’ve visited 48 states at this point, amongst major cities, and the beautiful national forests and parks America houses. My next plans are Canada for the summer, making the trek up to Alaska. I want to be blown away by the glaciers again, and explore our last northern frontier.

I’m much more active within Instagram. You are all free to go over and check out my feed, and follow my journey. I’ll try and update this profile over the next couple months, but there won’t be many posts made to tumblr for the next little while.

Thanks to all of you who have messaged with concerns/questions/comments. I appreciate you all. Here’s to more experiences!

When darkness falls, we rise.

Hail to Skadi, the Goddess of Winter, the Goddess of the Hunt; the White Wolf. We feel you.

The first snow was gorgeous. Skadi, we feel your presence.

Alfablot, the Nordic counterpart to Samhain, or as some of you may know it as Halloween, is a very sacred time of remembrance of our deceased ancestors. We gather around our close family, and exchange stories of great men and women within our family tree, who we honor that night with drink and warm food. We must keep them in our thoughts, for they overcame great struggles to bring us to life. This is their night. Hail to our deceased brothers, To our past sisters To the mothers of our mother And fathers of our father Though you may be gone We feel your presence And honor your life You will never be forgotten Hail

There are many forms of peace May I be one

From Flow States of Mind, this is where we camped, and meditated as one. I will remember those who joined me here, and keep you all close to my heart.
