About Me
I live on the Veluwe, the most forested region of The Netherlands, about 30 miles east of Amsterdam. To fulfill my daily needs, I run a small wholesale company.
My friend Little Dove has presented me my native American name: Grey Feather - A man of many horses.
In Norway my friend Nille Glæsel is developing an Eco Village on a beautifull island in the Lofoten archipellago. I will assist her to achieve her goals as much as I can. When the project takes off I will be one of the first inhabitants.
My spiritual path is that of the Western European pre-Christian traditions. I mix ancient traditions with modern day insights. My philosophy is that of the druid. A seeker of wisdom, respectful to all that is. I believe in the oneness of the Universe. The connection there is between each and everyone of us, as we are living our conscious lives.
My inspiration comes from ancient European mythology and literature. Arthurian Legends, the Edda and mythology from Wales, Cornwall, Brittany, Iceland, Scandinavia and Germany. During meditations I am guided by Merlin, Odin , Thor and other spirits from ancient legends and history. They teach me and advise me how to handle bigger and minor issues in my life.
My chosen name Pellinor comes from Arthurian literature. He is king of Listinoise (Northumberland). He is in constant pursue of a certain Questing Beast. A hunt that causes him never to be in his homeland that becomes sick and barren. On his first encounter with the young King Arthur, he beats the monarch. Arthur’s sword (the one he drew out of the stone) is shattered to pieces. Later Arthur was given Excalibur by the Lady of the Lake. On his journeys Pellinor provokes offspring at various ladies. Grail seeker and finder Percevale is the most famous of them. Pellinor slays Arthur’s brother in law King Lot of Orkney in battle. This causes a blood feud between the two families. Lot’s sons will kill him in the end.
Pellinor is also recognized as the Welsh Sun-God, Beli Mawr. His wounded character is the prototype for the Fisher King.
I am happy to be a member of “The Fellowship of the Knights of the Round Table of King Arthur, Dutch Chapter”, a masonic society where I have build a lot of friendship relations. This also goes for “Roaming Ravens”, a pagan fellowship where I meet friends with whom I share my pagan path.
