Paganism

Opinion: The World Tree and the State of Affairs

By Karl E. H. Seigfried | July 23, 2022

We, the people, are down here under the massive roots of the World Tree. In this vision, we are not at the center of creation. We are not even at the center of attention.

On a Viking ship – an interview with Stephanie Smith Pasculli

By Karl E. H. Seigfried | May 28, 2022

TWH’s Karl Seigfried speaks with Stephanie Smith Pasculli, a Heathen currently serving as part of the crew of the Draken Harald Hårfagre, a ship built in the style of the Viking Age, about life on the ship and the relationship between historical reenactment and modern Heathenry and Paganism.

Column: The World Tree, Heimdall, and All of Us

By Karl E. H. Seigfried | January 29, 2022

“The earth rotates around an axis drawn from the south pole, through the planet, out the north pole, and up to the pole star. With a bit of imagination, diagrams of this world axis show a trunk with roots in the earth and the pole star at the top of the leader. Old Icelandic poetry tells us of the mighty measuring tree. The growth and life of this tree parallel the growth and life of this world, and none know where to find the beginning point of its roots.”

Tarot of the Week

Tarot of the Week

Deck: Midnight Magic: A Tarot Deck of Mushrooms,by Sara Richard, published by Adams Media, an imprint of Simon and Schuster, Inc.

Card: Major Arcana Thirteen (19) – The Sun – Golden Oyster Mushroom

The next seven days are apt provide ample opportunities for all manner of positivity, be it taking time to enjoy fun activities, gather with friends, or just let your inner light shine. There is also likely to be a focus on being authentic and expressing joy wherever and whenever one encounters happy occurrences. Tapping into the energy of the Sun this week can help us all feel revitalized and ready to embrace abundant success.

Conversely, life’s myriad of difficulties can feel overwhelming and leave a person struggling to tap into the enthusiasm previously held to the point of being unsure of what direction to move in. Be mindful of keeping the ego in the backseat rather than the driver’s seat. Otherwise, overconfidence and false optimism can lead down the road to disaster. Overall, even if things are not all sunshine and butterflies, the ability to choose to take whatever positive actions are available will ensure being able to navigate around obstacles and roadblocks.
