Our beliefs through Heathen Ways
The beliefs of White Wolf and Paula are simple and interwoven with every aspect of our lives and beings. These are the beliefs we’ve been living for decades and they’ve only grown stronger with time. We are considered Heathens in our beliefs. But true Heathenry does not follow a doctrine or set of beliefs intentional to Heathens around the globe. True Heathenry is based upon the Old Ways of our ancient Germanic, Scandinavian and Celtic ancestors, but as did the Old Ways of the ancestors, the specific of the belief vary from household to household, and each unto his own.
Our beliefs encompass:
The 9 Virtues - we adhere to the ancient Norskk Virtues of Courage, Truth, Honor, Loyalty, Discipline, Hospitality, Industriousness, Self Reliance and Perseverance. We also hold in the highest regard the virtues of Integrity, Strength, Humility and Simplicity.
All major events in our lives are under the control of Fate/Destiny - a predetermined set of energy pathways set down by the Norns, not only the Norns of Midgard, but the Norns of all worlds - freewill comes into play within the everyday choices that make us who we are in life
The aim of life is to live and live fully - not worrying about extending our lives as long as possible, but rather to utilize the time we have
Every person has the right to believe what they wish and practice their beliefs so long as those practices do not purposely harm others beyond actions of the need for self preservation, the protection of those we care about and survival
The Gods and Goddesses do not rule over or pass judgement upon us - we believe all humans can look towards the spirit, the divine if you will, without the all too common conditioned feeling of low self worth, anxiety, guilt or shame; we can freely experience the pleasures of life because as humans we are gifted with sharing the intimacy and care of this world, each other and our personal selves, just as do the Gods and Goddesses
We believe that everything in life is alive and with spirit; rock, sky, bird, tree, river, storm, ocean, sun, moon, etc
We believe in the Jontar, Dverger, ‘Alfar, Landdisir, Landvaettir, Natturur, Fylgjur, Hamingjur, Nisse and others
We believe in Yggdrasil (Læraðr in Old Norse)/Irminsul, the 9 worlds and those beyond them
The 5 Original Wisdoms and Races we have always honored, respected and known the fact of
5 Original Wisdoms

Our ancestors live through us, they created us and we honor our bloodline with our lives and actions
Medical care should first and foremost come down to the Gods and Goddesses, the Spirits of the land and the Norns - We are made of them and we must honor them by keeping the body pure in a way that avoids contaminating it with material not naturally occurring - any substances created with or by synthetic means is deemed harmful to the body and the natural world around us, as well as disrespectful to the Gods and Goddesses - Odin gave us breath natural from himself and form, Vili gave us the ability to move through our world, Ve gave us the ability to truly live and embrace life with full emotional capacity, and the Norns wove and weave our fate - synthetic medications, vaccinations, and anything beyond natural herbs and supplements are deemed both harmful and disrespectful and disrupt our relations with the Gods, Goddesses and the Spirits of the Land - some ailments are there for us to cure with natural methods because they can be and it is part of our fate - other ailments are not meant to be cured by natural methods because that is part of our fate and there for a reason, and thus we accept that and live as we can with it rather than debauching the natural world for personal gain
We believe that autopsy is an abomination; an act of sheer disrespect, disgrace and to spit in the face of the Gods - throughout history in many indigenous cultures, the butchering of the dead was a way to show disrespect, and even interfere with the soul's ability to move on - today it has become common practice for the cold heartless medical world where people make a living butchering the dead
Foods are meant to be of natural origin, pure and as intended by the natural world - only non-GMO and organic foods are fit for the body - and the body is the shell in-which we travel Midgard and the mind (connected to and part of the body) is our pathway to the Gods - sustenance contaminated with harmful chemicals, synthetic properties and other materials not naturally occurring harm our interactions with the realm of spirit
Each to their own on how they wish to honor the Gods, Goddesses and all Spirits of the Land through specific or general actions - and we fully believe the path we walk and how we walk it is the highest form of ancestral honor - a Blot comes in all forms
The Old Ways and true meaning of Gifting is strongly upheld in our lives and holds a special place in much that we do
Death is something we believe is merely a gate into ongoing life, not something that brings ending
Confidence and True Identity are strongly upheld as energy flows to embrace and walk with pride
Organized religion is not of our way of thinking or beliefs
Any belief, organization, group or structure that has a purpose of oppression, forcing harm upon others - infant mutilation (circumcision as one example) in the name of religion or archaic, out of date and proven false "medical" procedures included, forcing others to live and believe as they do, domination over others and life itself, enslavement, and or the intended manipulation over another's will is not only not part of what we believe and live by, but are shunned by us as we will not partake in such harmful energy flows through life
