A Norse Pagan Sacrifice to Thor // The ASATRU Blot explained in detail.

In this video I give detailed instruction into how I conduct a solitary blot.   I know that many people do it different and I don't want to claim that my way is the right way.  If you don't already have a personal way to do a solitary blot, this may be a good place to start.  It is not very complicated, can be done indoors or out,  does not require many ritual tools or any kind of a script.  And above all it is an effective way to communicate formally with the gods, ancestors or land spirits when you want to give thanks or ask for aid.   

I hope this helps you on your path to develop your own personal ritual and build a stronger relationship to your gods and goddesses.

This is a instructional video on how to conduct a Norse Pagan Blot to Thor.  Bodvarr explains the steps of conducting a  Norse Pagan Ritual in the hopes that it takes some of the confusion out of giving offerings to the Gods.  After he goes through the Instructional video he then conducts a solo Blot and shows how we offer and speak to our Gods.  The way that we at Northwoods Kindred offer to the Gods is the same whether its to the Aesir, the Vanir the Disa or any other holy beings that could use a little gratitude from you for what they have brought to your life.

Welcome to the Northwoods Kindred Blog

Welcome to the Northwoods Kindred Blog.  Here we will discuss Asatru and Asatru related information especially when it is related to an Asatru Kindred or other Norse heathen or pagan collective.  Our Kindred is in Idaho,  And the picture above is in our stead.  This photo in the banner was taken the moment that we decided to create the Northwoods Kindred and take Heimdall as Patron.   It is special because from this perspective the rainbow drops right on top of our Ve.  We chose Heimdall because we are a teaching Kindred and do our best to help others in the formation and functioning of their own kindreds.  We have big plans for the future so we hope that you stick around and join us on the other social platforms.
