Awesome stuff Bors!!! Thanks for the knowledge.

Yeah thanks Bors ,the link you posted where they list some of those sayings is exellent. I was surprised both by how often those truths come up in modern conversation without us even knowing. "A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush"
is a example. I am going to find my own sacred grove this spring and start being more active in my beliefs. Today is Odins day. I was going to go for a ride on the Honda 919 which I put plates on and took for it's first spin of the spring yesterday but the gods had other plans and dumped a couple feet of snow on me this morning.

Anyone have any good Norse or Rune Tattoos? It is a shame the best tattoo artist in my town was killed a few weeks ago in an apartment fire...we were discussing my first tattoo.

Thank you Bors! I enjoy reading those posts!

The Norse wisdom you have posted is good for all of us. Our culture has often been neglected. Northmen have been portrayed as mindless brutes by our predominately Judeo-Christian rulers and media elites. It is good to see the wisdom in all cultures. I for one am not ashamed in any way of my European heritage. Thank you for sharing this with us, Bors.

Good Mornig Vic!

I couldn't agree more! They were a very intelligent and artistic people. No one in history was NOT violent, their protrayal as barbarians was propaganda!

Yes, we should not have expected otherwise from Christian monks who were being killed, looted, and plundered. The question is, why the anti-European propaganda continues. I suppose it is because of the Nazis, who stole and perverted much Norse culture. The posts that Bors has posted show clearly wisdom that is suitable for us all today.

Don't forget the Klan has also used the symbols thanks to the Ahole Nazis. I understand if a bunch of monks get whacked (can't tell that I'm Italian can you <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />) but you would think that people would relize today that it isn't so.

Look at themodern Ren faires. People who dress like vikings run around, usually in a barbaric way, getting drunk and raising hell. At least at mine they do. They think of themselves as the barbarians and beat their chests.

Reality is that these people were not only great artists, but sailors too. Discovering America before Columbus. Greenland, Icland and on to Canada. Plant material found in Greenland in digs coupled with the Norse saga's actually point to the upper east coast of North America. All done by these so called barbarians! I think not!

The Northmen were prolific explorers and traders,too. They traveled into Russia and even the Black Sea areas.

They had always been a favorite of mine since childhood.. I know that you must have seen their swords on Albion swords. Beautiful works of art. Pattern welded swords and were very good at what they did. They had great technology.
