The Iron Gods, the Earthy Gods

You mean Uccisore?

Anyway, Ive no idea what you want from me, besides attention.

Look man I appreciate your interest in music.
Let me give you a piece of advice.
If you want to learn something, don’t make theatre. Don’t act like you have all the answers and try to provoke the teacher into correcting you.

Your way of asking your question only makes me feel you don’t have any gods and don’t know what it feels like to love gods, that and of ultimate respect.
Why would I answer such a person?

Yeah that’s it… I find your attention just soooo rewarding, without it I am surely lost.

I have no desire or “want” of you. I’m sort of appreciating “what” of you comes my way by accident and circumstance. The random intersections for which chance is responsible; provides.

Now that I think of it, there is one thing. Stop being so interesting and entertaining and you would draw less of my attention.

Beautiful OP. Didn’t expect where it went. Not fond of a god that makes you speak a particular language or thinks there is just one way to a dialog. In the end there are just the two of us in the room, the maker and the made and there is a dialog taking place always if you listen.

Every once in a while you say something that makes me think you hear it too even when wrapped in that language that is uniquely yours.

It’s a risk/reward gamble I’ll likely continue into the future.

Mowk, I don’t hold the notion of God as equal to creator.
I do not think Odin created the universe. He is not reputed to have done so, the universe is supposed to have come from ice and fire, which in fact scientifically speaking is correct, if we take near 0 Kelvin hydrogen clouds as ice (seems fair) and the nuclear furnaces they condense into as fire (seems fair).

When Ice met Fire, the primordial being Ymir took shape.

As for the creation of Earth, this is generally attributed to come from the primordial being Ymir.

“Of old was the age when Ymir lived;
Sea nor cool waves nor sand there were;
Earth had not been, nor heaven above,
But a yawning gap, and grass nowhere.”

I doubt god is likely an entity in the manner you see Odin or Ymir, not something coming into being or came into being.

To each their own.

Indeed! To each their own.
This will be the only point of agreement we’ll ever reach. Thankfully!

Jeez, that was dirty, and tedious. Mowk now on ignore, I can proceed in cleanliness.

Refreshed!

well…
I can live with that. :shrug:

Im a simple human, if someone comes to lay down weak blobs of nihilism repeatedly in a shrine Im building I begin to detest that person. Such a fucking cunt. Now I hope he’ll fuck off; In the end all trolls give up.

Funking internets.

A bit of that fire and ice huh? I got no beef with you… live and let live.

making theater.

No, seriously! :wink:

Huginn and Muninn, his ravens. Odin was once asked which of the two he would sooner sacrifice, and after long thought, he decided that to be without Muninn would be even worse than to be without Huginn.
Mostly, Huginn is known as Mind, and Muninn as Memory. The latter meaning is however somewhat indefinite, and speculation exists.


I think Memory is essentially correct, in the very deepest of its meanings. The Soul. My feeling is that Muninn is the Soul.
So Odin is asked: which would you rather lose, your mind or your soul?

This is why the world works like this:

And not like clockwork.

If God doesn’t play dice, that basically means he loses. Gets excluded from the corner, entirely.

Hearth Cult - Domestic Fire

HAIL ODIN

In the midst of this clash and din the heavens are rent in twain,
and the sons of Muspell come riding through the opening.
Surtr rides first, and before him and after him flames burning fire.
He has a very good sword, which shines brighter than the sun.
As they ride over Bifrost it breaks to pieces, as has before been stated.
The sons of Muspel direct their course to the plain which is called Vigrid…
The sons of Muspel have there effulgent bands alone by themselves.

The Prose Edda, Gylfaginning

Old Norse:

Sutr ferr sunnan
með sviga lævi:
skinn af sverði
sól valtiva.

English:

Surtr moves from the south
with the scathe of branches:
there shines from his sword
the sun of Gods of the Slain.

Metal Gaia:
Na Moey Zemle” A Folk Metal Journey Across Pagan Lands

Arkona’s Na Moey Zemle translates into “My Land”

In this song, a man leaves his home in Russia in search of happiness. He travels through Sweden, Lithuania, Latvia, Germany, and the Netherlands in that order. Yet in his journey he learns that true happiness is back at home where he belongs.

A surprising number of guest vocalists have contributed to this Arkona ballad. We have the vocalists from Heidevolk, Menhir, Månegarm, Obtest, and Skyforger participating in this song.

Lord Odin
Allfather
All-warrer
streak the sky with blood
Give a pink sunrise

Ha! Lord I know words fail
and so fail I will!
Bridge to Asgard, ASGARD!

Asgard.

Words fail.

Odin, birds here revere you
or are they you?
Are you in all trees, not merely their sap but also the birds in their crowns?

Are you not in the beasts as you are in the Noblemen

Odin, blessing of blessings,
eternally my axe laughs

Lightning,
good rain, good excellent rain
Wolf, raw prey-meat, eye contact, prey and predator
secret joy, short joy

Let us take Rome again.
