Cats and Pianos

A talk by Heimgest DCG to the 2258 Great Moot. At one point, I had a quite amazing cat called Merlin; he was great at catching mice, he was intelligent, he could open doors and he was very vocal and joined in gealdor. But he couldn't play the piano... It wouldn't matter how long he sat at a piano, he would never be able to play it.

Criticism or Endorsement of the OR Way?

By Heimgest CG This has been a very good year for the Rite on many levels. There have been too many initiatives and activities conducted this year to list them all here, suffice to say we have advanced in many areas.

MAY LOKI BE BOUND – Part 1

Within the Odinist / Asatru community as a whole, there is often a rampant misunderstanding and false perception of Loki. At its worst some would claim to be on the ``Lokian path``, some offer blot to this force or pay honour. To be blunt the ignorance displayed in doing such is staggering and to compound it, such individuals invariably think they are actually very clever. They chase further ignorance believing it wisdom, but such is the nature of the Loki energy, it deludes.

MAY LOKI BE BOUND part II

Following publication in the last ORB of the 'MAY LOKI BE BOUND article, I received some very good feedback and questions. As it is vital for both personal growth and the advance of our Holy religion that this figure is properly understood, I think it would be helpful for all OR members to see the pertinent questions and the response.

YGGDRASIL AND THE INDIVIDUAL – Part 1

It is one of the great majesties of Odinism that our mythology is multi-layered and is therefore accessible to the Odinist at all levels of personal development. While this may at times be confusing to those studying the faith from a non-experiential point of view, to those actually and truly practicing it, it is a way of learning and growing.
