4th Day of Yule – Remembering the Noble Virtue of Truth
The Noble Virtue of truth is elusive. It’s as relative as the individual. What one person or group accepts as truth, another does not. There is no universal truth. There is no one way or right way of seeing anything. What we accept as truth is merely that: our truth. No one person or group has the ability to dictate their truth to anyone unless we allow it. The most important truth is that we remain true to ourselves. Search for your own truth. (C. Reimer/V. Elmersson)
Havamal 124
That is the true mingling of kinship when you can tell
Someone all your thoughts;
Anything is better than to be fickle;
He is no true friend who only says pleasant things (Larrington pg. 31).

To protect my ship from the stormy waves;
The storm I calm down, no matter how billowing the sea,
And I cradle the waves to sleep.

God/dess Meditation: Wednesday/Wodan’s Day/Wodan/An: Odin;
Alle-Vater Gott! Wandering god! Rune god! Wolf god! Raven god! Wodan!! Husband to Frija, the Alle-Mutter. Son to Paru and Bezzia, brother to Willo and Wîh; We call out to you, not as slaves or on bended knee, but on our feet and open-armed as befits your offspring. Watch us as we struggle, but the fight and fame must both be ours! Grant us that victory which we win by OUR might and mane! After a life battle-worn, Wodan, grant us access to our Great Ancestral Hall, where we may feast, drink the glorious mead and be merry with our heroes and our Altmâgâ. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, Wodan, as we honor the Wodan that resides in us all!
