I guess i'll go first here.

I am a member, with Uuillhelm Lat, of the Sahsisk Thiod.  A thiodish tribe out of Newport News VA.  The Sahsisk Thiod is the largest, most successful current thiodish group out there.  I act as it's Stiguuard. 

Of the gods, I have in the past held Uuodan in the highest regard... as of recent though my connections with Hama (a connection which started when I held a goat for Hama during Blot) have been greatly strengthened.

Hailsa all,

My family and I are relatively new folkish Asatruar who came to it through an interest in ancestral veneration. We are also new members of the AFA and the Troth. We reside in Tehachapi, CA and are a family kindred. We recently had a blot to Freyr and Freyja for Winter Finding / Harvest Home. We especially have an interest in assisting with developing more child-friendly resources for Asatru and Heathen children such as regional Asatru family camps for children and "Heathen Home Evening" ideas (hey I was raised Mormon so what can I say?). We have two elementary school age children that we are introducing to the lore (they were already used to offering libations to the ancestors and landwights/spirits of the land as we were doing that prior to becoming Asatruar).

We will probably do a special family feast and blot to focus on the Disir for Winter Finding this weekend.

Hail Ancestral!

It's good to have you here.

I hope you enjoy your time here. Which I'm sure you will there are many fine folks here.

Take care. :)

Hailsa Drknss!

Thanks! I haven't been to Beliefnet in a LOOOOONG time. Boy, is this a change!

Ah! You've been here before. Well Welcome back. LOL! Yeah it's a big change but I like it. I was starting to wonder if they'd ever actually update the site. I like all the cool features too. Like the Journal and everything. Cause it's all right here. I don't have to go from site to site anymore. LOL!

Well again. Take care. :)

I am new to this board and heathenry.  I am studying Asatru through reading and taking an on-line self-paced class called Asatru U through Frigga's Web.  I also just joined The Troth.

I have not affiliated myself with any branch of heathenry yet. 

What brought me to Asatru was my interest in learning about the Norse Gods.  I am of Germanic/Norse heritage and am interested in learning more about how my ancestors might have practiced.

I am still learning about the gods and goddesses but have a special interest in Thor.

I am solitary right now but am hoping to find like-minded others in my area (Michigan) to join in possible occasional group rituals.
