Plans: Yule prep (now it’s coming down to the wire)
8th Day of Yule – Remembering the Noble Virtue of Discipline
Discipline is the training that corrects, molds or perfects the mental/physical faculties or
moral character. Our Way is not an easy way. In many aspects, we fly in the face of the society around us. Stay Tru to the ideals of Heathenry as they unfold in your life. Be diligent in the study of your beliefs. Stay Tru to the gods and goddesses of the Northern Germanic peoples.
Donar, Son of Wodan and Erda, husband to Sibba, wielder of Malant and Great God of thunder, thunder forth in our lives. When we would hold back, encourage us to advance. When we would be weak, hearten us be strong. When we would shun life’s pleasures, inspire our appetites for that which is lusty and good. Excite our growth from strength; teach us, elder brother, how to throw our
own Hammer, and slay the giants who oppose our will. WE GIVE YOU A MOST
HEART-FELT HAIL, DONAR, as we honor the Donar that resides in us all!

Cleaned Haruc…MAN, has it been that long since I’ve cleaned out there? Jeez
Oh gods…I listened to a Kirby vacuum sales pitch for two-hours. Yeah, I brought onto myself. From the get-go I told them I wasn’t buying anything. The lady was pleasant. The salesman was pleasant. The supervisor was pleasant. I’m just not obligating myself to a $3,200 vacuum on unemployment; hel, for that matter I wouldn’t do it if I WAS working. It wasn’t a horrible experience. We talked of things Heathen. I showed them the Haruc and the Wîhstat.
I remained disciplined (Raido) with them and was a force (Ka) to be reckoned with!
As the son of Paltar and Nanda, we call out to you in our time of legal need. You’re the god of justice and reconciliation. We know that justice is a double-edged ax. On the one side, if our argument is right, grant us the proper conclusion. On the other side, if our argument is fraudulent, meat-out justice accordingly. Whether in the court of legal proceedings or the court of public opinion, grant us the justice according to the rightness of our deeds. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HAIL, FORSIZO, as we honor the Forsizo that resides in us all!
