Regarding "Odin world prayer day" and similar ideas. The thought behind it is well-meaning but I still don't support it. Scheduled prayers is a foreign concept to Norse paganism and I think it's time we step out of the box of organized religion and find true spirituality. Norse Magic and Beliefs explains it well in this video. Full video If you want to actively work on your connection to the gods, one thing you can do is utiseta (basically outdoor meditation). And talk to everything around you in nature as if they heard you - they do. 🪑 We were talking last night in the Mana chat about the prayer concept and I thought I'd make a post about it here as well. If you enjoy the content of this channel then you'll find other folkish to connect with in Mana: https://t.me/+lPrajYttsfgyMGI8

You're not here to change the world. The world is here to change you. You are alive to fully develop your intuition, your empathy and your imagination. These are the elements of your divine mortalhood. This is who you are.

“Animism is the way humanity has been deeply connected to the land and its seasonal cycles for millennia, in rapport and conversation with the animals, plants, elements, ancestors and earth spirits. The opposite of animism is the “cult of the individual” so celebrated in modern society, and the loss of the animist worldview is at the root of our spiritual disconnect and looming ecological crisis. Human beings are just one strand woven into the complex systems of Earth Community, and the animistic perspective is fundamental to the paradigm shift, and the recovery of our own ancestral wisdom.” ―Pegi Eyers Artwork by Elin Manon
