What else is out there?

 

 

As mentioned earlier in these ramblings, there are many different manifestations of Heathenry/Heathen focused faiths. You may be drawn to Heathenry and our Gods/Goddesses, but our aproach or take on the faith may not be to your liking or calling. So what else is out there? I will try and give a brief background here. Although it is very difficult to do justice to the below mentioned, and my words may appear vague. Like most things in life each of the following embraces tremendous diversities in their own rights. So, if any of the following grabs you or ignites an interest please spend time searching the internet to fill in the huge gaps that will be found wanting from the following paragraphs.

 

I sincerely hope the following may help you on your journey.

 

Northern Tradition

 

A more eclectic take on Heathenry with leanings toward elements of neopaganism and maybe new age shamanism. This said it is very diverse in its manifestations.

 

Norse Wicca

 

The structures of Wicca are well known, and within Norse Wicca we see the Heathen Gods/Goddesses in a Wiccan framework of festivals, rites and tradition.

 

Reconstructed Heathenry

 

There are many different takes on Heathenry from a reconstructionist viewpoint. This results in a tapestry of interpretations of Heathen faiths that is remarkably colourful. Usually these faiths will focus on a particular aspect (ie. Anglo-Saxon, Germanic/Scandinavian, Icelandic, etc)

There is so much more to be found (both from surfing the internet and in books), and the aforementioned is just a very small taster of the many expressions of what can be found. Obviously, it is up to you what you follow, or ally yourself to, if indeed you want to. At the end of the day your spiritual home may lay elsewhere and not within Heathenry and if this is the case I sincerely hope that reading the pages here may have helped you with your journey, if this is so, then purpose has been served. Be guided by your own souls song and be true to that which sings in harmony with you and your soul. 

 

Whatever you choose or decide on behalf of Wuffacynn and our kindred I wish you well.
