8th Day of Yule – Remembering the Noble Virtue of Discipline
The Noble Virtue of Discipline is a training to obey rules, a code of behavior or a branch of knowledge. It’s a method of systematic instruction intended to train a person within a given idea or method. Our Way is not an easy way. In many aspects, we fly in the face of the society around us. Be disciplined enough to stay Tru to the ideals of Heathenry as they unfold in your life. Be diligent in the study of your beliefs. Endeavor to honor the gods and goddesses of the Northern Germanic peoples (C.Reimer/V.Elmersson).

No man is completely wretched, even if he has bad luck;
One man is blessed with sons,
Another with kinsmen, another has enough money,
Another has done great deeds (Larrington pg. 23).

The fourth one I know, when a foe has tied up
My arms and hands;
The fetters fall from my leg, when I chant that song,
And off my hands the ropes come.
