07 DECLARATION OF TRADITION
Months in the making, the Declaration of Tradition is now OPEN for all Germanic Pagans to sign today!
Working with various Pagans, the DOT has been devised so as to represent the traditional values we are to adhere to as followers of Germanic Paganism.
The Declaration of Tradition serves as a means of unifying sincere followers of Germanic Paganism with a framework we can refer to and use to take collective action.
If you are a Germanic Pagan and believe in the traditional values taught to us by our Gods and ancestors, become a signatory today. You can sign as an individual or as an organisation if you have a gathering.
Special thank you to WodenWyrd and Þórr Siðr for their valuable assistance in the Declaration's creation, to Dan Capp / The Fyrgen for the website building, and to all individuals and organisations that have become signatories.

26 The Haustlǫng (Autum-long) poem composed by the 10th century Norwegian skald Þjóðólfr of Hvinir is one of the earliest poems detailing various mythological scenes of the Gods. The poem was preserved in Snorri Sturluson's Prose Edda and contains numerous kennings that allow us to gain an understanding of the way in which the Norse and thus Germanic people as a whole conceptualised the world.
In detailing Thor's fight with the jǫtun Hrungnir, Þjóðólfr says:
Ok harðbrotin herju
heimþingaðar Vingnis
hvein í hjarna mœni
hein at Grundar sveini,
þar svát eðr í Óðins
ólaus burar hausi
stála vikr of stokkin
stóð Eindriða blóði
"And the hard-broken whetstone of the home-visitor of the female follower of Vingnir (Hrungnir) flew whining towards the boy of Grund (Grund: Jǫrð, boy of Grund: Thor) into the roof-ridge of his brain, so that the pumice of steel weapons (whetstone), still stuck in the skull of the son of Óðinn (the son of Óðinn: Thor), stood there, spattered with the blood of Eindriði (Thor)."
It is interesting to note that the whetstone is described as flying towards Thor in the direction of "the roof-ridge of his brain". Roof-ridge, in this case, is a kenning that means the top half of the skull.
The skull being referred to as a roof is similarly described by the Icelandic skald Arnórr Þórðarson jarlaskáld (c. 1012-1070), who, in his poem Magnússdrapa verse 19, says in reference to King Magnus:
Jafnmildr ungr skjǫldungr stígr aldri und gǫmlum hausi Ymis á skildan við; rausn þess grams vas gnóg.
"Never beneath the ancient skull of Ymir will an equally bounteous young king step aboard a shield-hung vessel; the magnificence of that lord was ample."
Here, we see another example of the skull being referred to as a roof. The sky being being called the ancient skull of Ymir coincides with the creation myth in Vǫluspá, where the three Gods, Óðinn, Villi, and Vé, create the Earth and use the skull of Ymir as a dome or roof placed overhead. | 1 253 | 3 | Loading... |

28 The English ornithologist John Wolley spent 4 years (1853–1857) in Ylimuonio, Finland, amassing a large collection of eggs. For some reason, he carved a runic text in a mixture of Swedish and English on a stone in Muonionvaara. The inscription reads:
“Vi ar i lant of Oskar friat of Viktoria of Inklant. This holi saita vit holt sint morak stil har lat Jon Volli of Matlok rit runs aftir Savastovols fal”
[ We are in Oskar's land, freed by Victoria of England. This holy site with all its quiet land around (surroundings) has taught John Wolley of Matlock to carve runes after the fall of Sevastopol. ]
