  2. Release date confirmed! Red Eye Jedi - Vocatus Silvae launches at 30th of May across all platforms! 20 days to go until the forest calls you! #psytrance #forest #scandinavian #newreleases

  3. #ikeacanada has gone to the dogs. What a complete 💩 show. Customer service is a mess. The issue I reference above? Identified In 2014. They are acting as if they’ve never encountered this.

    Curious to know, is #Ikea a mess in #Scandinavian countries?

  4. More adventures in vegan baking! These are Norwegian skoleboller, sweet cardamom spiced yeast dough (LOTS o cardamom) filled with vanilla pudding/custard, glazed with lemon & powdered sugar glazing and sprinkled with coconut shreads.

    I was inspired to make them by Megan Kasten (prairieveganbakingproject.com/) although I didn't use her recipe - thinking about getting her Scandinavian Baking Guide though! Please do check her out.

    I used this free recipe instead: eat-this.org/vegane-skolebolle

    The glaze still needs to set before I can do a taste test but I have a feeling they will be diviiiiiiine ✨🥹

  6. Hype for the Future 73C: Scotland’s Nordic Heritage

    Introduction While Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 is not a strictly Nordic country, centuries of rule by the Norwegians and other historic Nordic groups north of the Teutonic peoples have resulted in special Nordic treatment for the Shetland Islands, the Orkney Islands, and the Counties of Caithness and Sutherland, all from north to south. To the west are the Inner and Outer Hebrides, including notable islands such as the Isles of Skye, Barra, and the Ulsts, just to name a […]

  7. Read into it what you want.

    Personally, I doubt Trump likes lutefisk or pickled herring.

    This is most likely just another outlandish comment intended to keep the American public off-balance.

    Perun

    In Slavic mythology, Perun is the highest god of the pantheon & the god of the sky, thunder, lightning, storms, rain, law, war, fertility, & oak trees. His other attributes were fire, mountains, wind, iris (the flower), eagle, firmament, horses & carts, & weapons (hammer, axe (Axe of Perun), & arrow).

    The supreme god in the Kievan Rus’ during the 9th-10th centuries, Perun was first associated with weapons made of stone & later with those of metal. The Kievan Ris’ (a.k.a. Kyivan Rus’) was the 1st East Slavic state & later an amalgam of principalities in Eastern Europe from the late 9th to the mid-13th century. It encompasses a variety of peoples, including East Slavic, Norse, & Finnic.

    The Primary Chronicle relates that in the year 6415 (907 AD) Prince Oleg (Old Norse: Helgi) made a peace treaty with the Byzantine Empire & by taking his men to the shrines & swearing by their weapons & by their God Perun, & by Volos, the God of cattle, they confirmed the treaty.

    In 980, when Prince Vladimir the Great came to the throne of Kiev, he erected statues of 5 pagan gods in front of his palace which he soon thereafter discarded after his Christianization in 988.

    Perun was chief among them, represented with a silver head & a gold moustache. Vladimir’s uncle, Dobrynya, also had a shrine of Perun established in his city of Novgorod. After the Christianization of Kievan Rus’ this place became a monastery, which continued to bear the name of Perun.

    Perun was worshipped by the Varangian (Scandinavian) warriors hired by Oleg & Igor during the campaigns against Byzantium. In the treaty of 971, the Varangians reenforce with the Slavic deity, Veles.

    When the arrival of Christianity, the old gods fared poorly amongst the Slavs. Grand prince Vladimir the Great, who had once been a very vocal & lavish patron of Perun, converted to Christianity.

    In 988, the prince & his family & people of the Kievan Rus’ were collectively baptized. He ordered that the statues of Perun which he himself had erected formerly, be dethroned, torn down with great dishonor & dragged through the streets as they were beaten with sticks. The idols were then cast into rivers & not permitted to land on the shore. 3 of Vladimir’s sons are also recognized as saints.

    In neopaganism interpretation, the struggle of St. George with the serpent is understood as the struggle of Perun with Veles, who stole cows from him.

    According to the book Dezionization by Valery Yemelyanov, 1 of the founders of the Russian neopaganism, in the ideas of the “Veneti” (“Aryans”), there was a “trinity of three triune trinites”: Prav-Yav-Nav, Svarog-Perun-Svetovid, Soul-Flesh-Power.

    In some currents, Perun may be the supreme patron god. Since 1992, the 1st neopagan Kupchinsky Temple of Perun has been in St. Petersburg.

  13. I'm still dabbling with only a few icelandic words I had thrown a look at Icelandic in the past... But this time recognizing/building from the Swedish/Danish/Norwegian linguistically-related words: it makes the exercise much much easier - for the moment #islensk #scandinavian #langsky #learning

  15. I also free-handed a grey top with #hällristningar in red as part of my maternity wardrobe - I love how this one turned out!

    Unapologetically #pagan and a connection to my #Scandinavian roots.

    The #petroglyphs are all from existing #RockCarvings across #Sweden based on photos I found online.

  16. 1/ If you love #FolkMusic - #CelticMusic or #Bluegrass you’re going to love Nordic Folk - if you’re not already in to it… #Scandinavian fiddle is awesome. This tune had my feet tapping. To paraphrase an old saying: Great fiddle music needs to win your ears, your heart, and your feet… #fiddle #FiddleTunes 🧵

  17. Someone already noticed the quiver at the back in my former post so here it is in full :-) As with so much else I`ve used scandinavian historical (year 800-950) motifs. I find them extremely beuatiful and cant help thinking those crafters, in small pieces of metal, back then was as brilliant as those of our days 1500 years later.

  18. 2 sets of handmade leather bracers for the weekend viking and reenactment, raven or wolf or mixed. The raven is redrawn from an old nordic pendant, the wolf is a neo-nordic self-invented image. 23 cm long, 4,5 mm thick. I guess they will sell at a viking/middelage market later this year.
