Elegast,
“Karel ende Elegast” was an original poem in Middle Dutch that scholars think was probably written at the end of the 12th century, otherwise in the 13th century and set in the region of Charlemagne’s castle in Ingelheim.
Elegast is possibly symbolic of the Dutch people’s pre-Christian myth of an ancient elf or folk hero. In the…Read More

The Flemish and Dutch have an old tradition, when the winter arrives, the dead return. We put a candle by the window so they know they are welcome. I use this Joelkandelaar, when the licht is welcomed back at Bikkebrenne with the arrival of spring, I blow it out. I leave the candle in it all summer.

A fun way of living heathenry is to leave visible markers on sacred places. Ofcourse we do this with all respects for the local circumstances. No damaging, no polluting. Such signs will bring awareness to people, show heathenry is alive and other heathens may be inspired or may want to find out why that place is marked or who is doing it. Sparking…Read More

While preparing to actually write down some of my thoughts around Odin’s brothers Vili and Ve, I have been looking at other related IE Gods and Goddesses. Of course, Hermes must be in that list. I found a rather interesting bit about Hermes son, Cephalus:

So, it’s not exactly the same thing described here, but it might be related. Here’s a reference to a white stone or pebble having been ritually deposited into well in the Netherlands
