I honor you this day, and I honor every bit of you that resides in me. I’m grateful for the strong German heritage you’ve provided. I look forward with eager anticipation to the great family reunion on the other side. I offer you my undying love, honor, respect, and gratitude.

Rune Lesson: Many if not all religious expressions show a physical connections to their Deities. Heathenry is no different. In the Lay of Rig https://www.pitt.edu/~dash/rig.html (not my favorite translation but makes the point) some see this story as the setting of social classes. Others, like myself, read this story as an expression over time. However it’s perceived it’s well worth noting that Heimo is our genetic connection to the gods for all people and all time. THAT kind of connection is what gives us as Heathens an indestructible faith system! Thru Heimo’s story we are encouraged to remain loyal to the old gods as a faith systems SO worthy preservation!
*from re-creation to creation. We are born again to be born again.

God/dess Meditation: Thursday/Donar’s Day/Donar/An: Thor:
Donar, Son of Wodan and Erda, husband to Sibba with the Golden Hair, wielder of Malant and Great God of thunder, thunder forth in our lives. When we would hold back, encourage us to advance. When we would be weak, hearten us be strong. When we would shun life’s pleasures, inspire our appetites for that which is lusty and good. Excite our growth from strength to strength; teach us, elder brother, how to throw our own Hammer, and slay the giants who oppose our will. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, DONAR, as we honor the Donar that resides in us all!
