The Sacred Mountain and the Black Sun

These mysteries were revealed by a glass pyramid which I happened to buy in a local charity shop; this may seem a strange statement but to this day I do not know why I bought the object. I have been to Egypt many years ago and seen the mysterious pyramids and the giant statues of the pharoahs that look so European-like in their countenance, so have had a kind of fascination for these things. All I know is that the glass pyramid seemed to give out some kind of mystical 'aura' that I could feel when I put my hand above it, so I bought it on impulse. 

The Glass Pyramid has the figure of Tutankhamun inside it with the name 'EGYPT', and it seemed to me to be like the Glass Mountain of Germanic Myth, even down to the 'Sleeping-King' within it! If we are to believe certain accounts that state that Tutankhamun had North-West European blood then this is even more interesting. 

When I just looked at the pyramid from the top the shape that appeared was that of the Gar-Rune. This is that of a diamond-shape with an X-cross which breaks it up into four squares. This reminded me of the ancient make-up of Ireland with four counties, the central point being Tara in the central and fifth county. Each was a kingship and in the Glass Pyramid, when looked at from the top, the figure of King Tut can be seen in both upright and reflection, suggesting that this kingship works in two dimensions or two worlds. This make-up and Sacred Kingdoms would not have been restricted to Ireland, but has remained in their legends and myths for us to see. The name Erin, Eriu, and Ireland are all connected to the word 'Aryan' but also to 'Ir' or 'Irmin'. This itself tells us that this land was occupied by the Arya just as the Saxons were Arya and occupied England. (Indeed, if my source was right, the remains of a Saxon settlement were found beneath the Viking settlement of Dublin, something that was never widely published - of course!) 

I have shown in another post how the Gar-Rune is the rune of the Sacred Mountain with the X-cross as the Four Sacred Rivers that spring from the mountain. This is the White Mountain of the North which in Tibetan was the mountain of the Nine Swastikas. Mount Kailas (The Swastika Mountain) in the Himalayas is a physical representation of this Holy Mountain, and sacred to Shiva. The curved form of the X-cross in the Old English document actually suggests the Four Sacred Rivers. The biblical name Eden is itself interesting since it has to relate to the Edel-Rune through its root-sound. The Edel-Rune, of course, is the Rune of Thule-Hyperborea and the Rune of At-al-land. 

It is also suggestive that both the Edel-Rune and the Gar-Rune can mean 'Gift of Ing' since the Gar-Rune is made up of the Gyfu-Rune and Ing-Rune (G-Ung-nr) and the Edel-Rune is a bind-rune of these two runes. This also suggests that Ingwe was a very important figure linked to both Thule and At-al-land. We are going way back into the ancient past here, and in doing so we should not overlook the name Tara used of the Sacred Centre of Ireland, and thus originally the Sacred Centre of the Arya. The name is used of a goddess in Tibet - Arya Tara - and also as the Manu-Tara which is a legend from the Americas. We should now look at the name 'Tara'. 

Tar - to pass through, to bore, to penetrate, to turn.

       - to lift, endure, suffer (also as Tal)

       - to tremble

These all suggest to me a link to Atlas who 'lifts' the world on his shoulders, and thus 'suffers' through his 'endurance'. He is the brother of Albion.

We can also break the name into -

Ta - to stretch

Ra - Egyptian Sun-God.

Arya Tara is a goddess known to the Tibetans, an 'enlightened being' in Buddhist terms; Arya is the Goddess of the Arya and certainly a valid god-name that can be used. She would go back into the distant times and land of Thule. 

One of the greatest mysteries of the Pyramids of Egypt is the missing capstone of the Great Pyramid; we use the word 'missing' but this could just have well never been there at all, and suggests that the apex of the Great Pyramid is symbolic of the lost land of Hyperborea-Thule. This would suggest that this was also symbolised by a pyramid which itself was symbolic of the Sacred Mountain  which was on the Sacred Island known as Scandi/Thule/Atala. This Sacred Island was divided into four parts, four squares, each a kingdom in itself, at the centre (Sacred Centre) of which was Arya-Tara which was the Sacred Centre or Ur-Centre and the original point of origins. 

In The Sacred Triangle of Pagan Iceland Einar Palsson gives a rather convincing argument that some of the legendary names in Ireland stem from Greek roots, for example he cites Niall as Nelius. These names went to Iceland through Irish monks that settled there, hence Nial's Saga etc. There are some who see the Greek legends and myths as coming from Egypt and there is reason to suggest that there may be some truth in this. We have to understand that Egypt has a far more ancient past than we can imagine. It has been said that Scota - who gave her name to the Scots - was an Egyptian Princess, though the word 'Scot' more likely stems from Aryan Root *scu or *sku which means 'to cut' or 'to cleave' and is the same root as *sak from which we get the name Saxon. But the Scots did come from the north of Ireland, and the Milesians from the area of Spain, or at least passed through Spain. Legends tell us that the Tuatha de Danaan came from the Far North, and this is a very ancient legend. 

The Sacred Mountain has its reflection beneath it as the 'roots of the mountain'; it extends below the Earth as well as rising into the heavens. Its 'reflection' extends below and thus symbolises the Inner Earth where the Gods dwell, and which is the Thule-Hyperborea-Agharti-Shambhalla of myth and legend. This 'Lost World' is thus symbolised by the Diamond-Crystal which shines its light on this world from the 'Other-World' which has been 'lost' to us, but which remains in the Memory of the Blood. 

'X marks the spot' has always been a common saying, and thus the Mark X must have been symbolic of something important in the past, maybe going back into very ancient times. According to our Sacred Runes X means a 'gift' and is associated with Gefion who is a goddess associated with the marking out of an area of land. From this I can deduce that the Mark X has always been used as the marking out of a land broken into Four Kingdoms - i.e. that this was the Ur-Mark associated with the Ur-Lands and the Sacred Island of the North. 

In the Spear of Woden (Summer Sunstead 2015 Edition) I showed how the Gyfu-Rune relates to the Legend of Lady Godiva whose real title is Godgifu and whose tale may have more importance than we can imagine. Godiva or Godgifu is the 'Bride-Goddess' and thus Freya who is wed to Ingwe-Frey. (Here, once more, we have a firm link to Ing and the Gift of Ing, and since the 'gift' has always been the 'bride' then this refers to the Goddess Freya.) I also showed how this 'Bride-Goddess' (Godgifu) was also found in the tale of the 'Fine Lady' who rode a White Horse and is associated with Banbury Cross. 

Now, I have shown long ago how Banbury Cross may well have marked the central point of England - the Sacred Centre of England. The name itself suggests this - beran byrig - since the word beran actually means 'to bear' and this suggests the Sacred Centre since the word skambha (from which we get Shambhalla) also means 'to bear' and relates to the Sacred Pillar. So we have the Bride-Goddess (Gefion-Freya) associated with the Sacred Centre of England, just as Tara was associated with the Sacred Centre of Ireland. It is also perhaps a 'coincidence' that Godiva was the wife of Leofric who was one of four important kings who ruled under King Canute. Here we have four kings (kingdoms) ruled by a High King (Canute). We should also note the name Banbury Cross which hints at a link to the Gyfu-Rune and the Mark X. Again - X marks the spot!

Yet another meaningful coincidence today when I was sent a number of links to web-pages that concerned a crop-formation that appeared at Ox Drove near to Bowerchalke in Wiltshire. This formation was a Black Sun - the same as that at Wewelsburg except that the outer ring was changed to break the reversed sig-runes into four sections of three runes, and there were four small circles in the outer ring as well as the larger circle at the centre. These four circles, if they were joined by straight lines, would make a X-Cross. This circle appeared yesterday which was when I first started this post - 8th August 2015. The date makes the number 8 - 8 - 8 (8/8/2015) which has to be significant! 

The name of the area, Bowerchalke, suggests a 'Chalk Chamber' since 'bower' means 'chamber' from the Old English bur. This may be a burial chamber that once existed in the area, or may still exist today. 

This was after I had a very strange and seemingly long dream last night, the contents of which I could not recall upon waking, except that it ended as I opened a door out of a Glass Pyramid that I was in - the dream content I could not remember but I knew that it had given me knowledge that would be revealed soon. It was so strange to see this crop-formation and its symbolism the next day -

• The Black Sun.
• The alterations which broke the symbol into four sections, each with three reversed Sig-Runes.
• The Central Circle and Four Outer Circles.
• The X-Cross made by the Four Outer Circles.
• The name of the area - OX DROVE.
• The numerology from the date - 8-8-8. The date was when this post was started.

What is even more strange is that the last piece I wrote yesterday was about Banbury, which is in Ox-ford-shire. The Ox is symbolised by the Ur-Rune and here we were talking about Thule-Hyperborea-Atland and the Place of Origins. 

Before I am ridiculed for believing in some 'supernatural' force creating these crop-formations, I would be the first to admit that some of them may well be hoax's, since there has been widely-publicised accounts of certain people set up to do these. But I have kept an open mind on the subject since the time over 20 years ago that I witnessed what could have been the type of force that can create 'crop-circles'. This happened in the mountains of Snowdonia in North Wales when I was taking a hike over to Druid's Circle above a place called Penmaenmawr. It was a clear still day, clear blue skies and no wind whatever; as we approached a small broken stone circle we heard what seemed to be a 'buzzing' sound (both my ex-wife and I heard this), which turned out to be the 'chattering' of leaves on a dead tree the other side of a dry stone wall (remember this was a still clear day). As we looked at this it seemed like a kind of vortex-wind swirling around the tree, and then it began to move in a straight line through the dry stone wall, reaching an area of long grass (found in wet areas) a mere couple of yards away from us. This vortex-wind instantly flattened the grass area into a circle! It then moved in a straight line, whisking up dust and dead grasses etc. and ending in the stone circle about twenty yards away. Both myself and my ex-wife could feel that this force was 'alive' and 'conscious' and it seemed to be 'watching' us. It is hard to relate this because it sounds so unbelievable to those who have never experienced such things. 

This was not in corn but in long grass, but the principle seems to be the same, and the grass was flattened in the same way as crop-formations and crop-circles. So I certainly feel - and know - that such formations can be done by some non-human force, since I have seen it with my own eyes. This was not the only time that I had witnessed the sound of 'buzzing' for it happened again in the same area, though on a road that led up the mountain and ended near to Druid's Circle. This happened in a grove of trees on another clear day with clear blue skies and no wind - but this time, although the day had been clear, just after this the skies went dark and a thunder-storm stopped us going up to the circle - which we took as an omen that what I was going to do needed to be done elsewhere. The 'buzzing' sound on both occasions was like the buzzing of a swarm of bees!

On August 11th 1999 there was a Solar Eclipse (Black Sun) and the Daily Mail clipping of this (which I have posted before) shows a central globe (Earth) with four planets in a Cross shape which may well relate to the Black Sun symbolism, since this is sometimes seen as a Zodiacal Symbol having 12 constellations around the Sun. (It should be noted that the usual 'zodiac' has been tilted so that Leo the Lion is at the northernmost point, otherwise the cross would be an X-Cross). 

Daily Mail Cutting - August 1999

I have gone through this on numerous occasions in publications, blogs and on our websites but I will go through it here to clarify some points -

• The Sun, Moon and Venus (The Morning Star) are seen in the House of Leo the Lion; in Norse Mythology this house seems to have been symbolised by a Dragon - the White Dragon.
• The 'Sign of the Son of Man' (the Ing-Rune) appears as the diamond-shape.
• In the aforementioned Crop-Circle of the Black Sun we find four divisions of three, and four small circles on the outer rim - this fits with the zodiacal signs and planetary conjunction shown here.
• This occurred on August 11th 1999 which was 16 years ago (8 + 8 = 16). This fulfilled prophesies that the Sun would 'turn black' (Solar Eclipse 8th August) and the 'hot stars fall from the skies' (Persied Meteor Shower 12th August). 

'When the Ice of the Darkest of Night melts away under the Fire of the Black Sun of the Inner Earth, the poison apple shall fall away, and the Sleeping Goddess shall awaken, throw off the White Wolf-Skin and arise renewed by the Golden Apples of the Immortals. When the Moon is under her feet and she is clothed in the Golden Sun, she shall bring forth the Divine Child of Light who will lead the English Folk in their Divine Mission against the Servants of Darkness.'

The Prophecy 88 - Wulf Ingessunu. (November 9th 2014).

This prophecy refers to the Black Sun of the Inner Earth and to the awakening of the Sleeping Goddess - Idunn - who is also named Isa or Isais (Isis in Greek Mythology). Her rune is the Is-Rune which is the Rune of Ice. (*)

(*) Many years ago I had a very vivid and spectacular dream of The Avatar immortalised in a Glass Dome, awaiting the time for his 'resurrection'. This fits with the theme of the Sleeping King which is here paralleled by this prophecy of the Sleeping Queen/Sleeping Goddess. This 'Sleeping-Goddess' is Idunn, also known as Arya, and she is the Soul of the Aryan Race and the Protector-Goddess of the Aryan Race. It is the Black Fire of the Black Sun that will awaken her, and here we have a Black Sun crop-formation in an area of England, around 10 miles from Stonehenge. 

'...from the other side he comes by Ilu's Hidden Sun

- then is the time.

In investigating the starry world,

look to the head of the bull. He brings the lance.

Weigher out of the star's measure:

From the head of Taurus to Aquarius.

Under the centre lies the Black Stone.'

Prophecy of Isais (reproduced from 'The Final Battalion' by the 55 Club).

Somewhere there is a thread that connects all of this together but as yet it has not been revealed - the time has not come to do so. The Black Sun crop-formation at Ox Drove has some significance and is a sign to us in this darkest hour - a Sign of Hope. 

Addition - August 10th 2015.

Last night I studied some of the stuff written about this crop-formation, most of which conveniently omits the fact that the symbol was used at the SS Ordenburg at Wewelsburg in the Old Saxon lands. A couple of the comments made were about the Lion presumably because August comes within the Constellation of Leo the Lion. There is also a connection between the Black Sun and August 17th though I will not go into details of this. 

The classical interpretation of the constellation that rules this period is the Lion, but I have shown before how the northern tradition could have seen this as ruled by a dragon and since the summer period is ruled by a White Dragon (we have the name 'Whitsun' which means 'White Sun' and is around the end of May but goes through the summer months) then we have the Black Sun in the House of the White Dragon - which was the same symbolism as the solar eclipse of August 11th 1999, and also very near to the same dating 16 years onwards. 

It is noticeable that 17th August 2015 would also be 8 - 8 - 8 (1 + 7 = 8, August is the 8th month, and 2015 adds to 8). It is then perhaps no coincidence that our next rite which we hold on August 17th each year has been altered this year from the 'Helgi Rite' to the 'Black Sun Rite'. This seems, to me, to confirm that this change is needed so we shall go on with this rite for this month. 

It should also be noted that at this time of the year the Constellation of Cygnus the Swan shows right above us here in England, and that this constellation links to the Long Man of Wilmington. At one level this rune is linked to Wid-Ar the Silent One - 'He Who Returns' - since this is the god who is 'resurrected' in order to avenge the 'death' of Woden at the hands of the Fenris Wolf. 

The Gar-Rune - The link between the Sacred Mountain/Glass Mountain and the Gar-Rune brings us to the concept that this rune is the Beginning and the End - The First and the Last since it works very much like The Fool of the Tarot Pack, coming outside the four sets of eight runes. This is the Spear of Woden or 'Sacred Lance' that is symbolic of the Cosmic Axis. As the Beginning and the End - The First and the Last this relates to the god-force (Avatar) that appears at the end of a world-age or cycle, and is 'resurrected' at the beginning of a new world-age or cycle. This is the god we know as Wid-Ar who is the archetype of The Hooded Man or The Divine Fool (Parsifal). As the rune outside the 32 rune-rows this must be numbered '0' which would be The Void, which itself hints at The Black Sun. 

Here in England the Glass Mountain is symbolised by Glastonbury - Glas-ton-burg in Somerset. This is a holy hill on top of which is a small disused chapel dedicated to 'St. Michael' who is a dragon-slayer, wielding a spear to slay the Dragon of Darkness. But this area is also associated with the Wild Hunt, if we are to believe the 'Celtic' legends of the area. Here we need caution though since the 'Celtic' name Ynys Witrin ('Island of Glass') was a very late edition and does not reflect the original name. It is thus just as likely that the 'Celtic' legend was also added much later, since the whole area was appropriated by the monks of Glastonbury, the legend of King Arthur added to it, and this was used to destroy the English Tradition by the Normans under William the Bastard and those who followed him - the true Saxon Kings and AEthlingas being replaced by the Norman-French-Breton lords. 

That Glastonbury was chosen as the place where Christianity first got a hold here would not be surprising in view of its sacred nature as symbolic of the Sacred Mountain. As a former island, surrounded by water, it would have suggested the White Island which was the Ur-Land of our Folk. But since the Wild Army was sometimes said to ride out of a hill or mountain, the Welsh addition could have been merely added to an original Germanic Legend of this sacred hill, so we should not dismiss it. If so then the area would once have been associated with Woden as the Hunter-God. 

The top of the Sacred Mountain of the North was said to be a Diamond-Crystal or Glass Pyramid which shines its light around the worlds. This, in some eastern legends, is the Light of Shambhalla which is a kingdom within the Inner Earth, i.e. exists in a different dimension of time and space. In some old Celtic tongues the word gar means 'stone' and we can see here a link to the Gral-Stone. The Gar-Rune is one of the Graal Runes and represents the spear, coming after the Stan-Rune which is the stone. 

The above shows another crop-formation of the Black Sun which appeared in 2014 in England. This is a variation, but the overall symbolism seems quite sound in that the 'Lightning-Bolts' point inwards suggesting implosion which fits with the Aryan Science symbolised by the Black Sun. 

I have mentioned the Gift of Ing many times here and elsewhere and I feel that we need to clarify this here. Our word 'fire' refers to the physical element of fire whereas the term we use - Inga - refers to the force or energy behind the physical element of fire. This would stem from the Root-sound *ng which invokes this force or energy and should be seen as a kind of 'mantra' or 'galdor' for this use. Inga, as Hamasson has pointed out, is the reflection of Agni who is a Fire-God of the Aryans. From his name we get our word 'ignite' related to the lighting of a fire, also the Latin igneous meaning 'fiery'. If we now relate this to the Spiritual Centre represented by the Spear of Woden and the Sacred Mountain (Gar-Rune) then this has to be the origins of the Central Force that we symbolise by the Black Sun.

The word 'pyramid' (as I have shown before) comes from pyra = fire, and mid = centre/middle, thus Fire in the Middle. Here we have a clear indication that the Sacred Mountain - symbolised by the Sacred Pyramid - relates to the force or energy of the Inga-Fire invoked by the Root-sound *ng and represented by the god known as Ing or Ingwe. He is the Lord of the Elves or the Shining Ones whose name suggests 'light' and thus a force of energy or 'fire'. In Wodenic Lore we have entered the Age of Ing and thus the Age of the Inga-Fire. 

If the Root-sound *mr refers to the 3:4:5 Triangle, or more precisely the side '4' which would be the line from the centre of the pyramid base to the apex, then  this would be the 'central axis' or the 'pillar' (skambha). Einar Palsson ('The Sacred Triangle of Pagan Iceland') related this to the 'Mother' which is 'matter' (symbolised by the Number 4 in most cultures). Side 3 is the 'Father' (Spirit) and Side 5 is the 'Son' or offspring (i.e. Ing). This line is thus The Measurer and here I am reminded of the Old English Metod who seems to relate to one of the Norns or Wyrd Sisters - 'The Mother'. We have a simple formula here related to Pythagoras' Theorum - 

'The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.'

Thus - The Sun (5 x 5 = 25) is equal to the Mother (4 x 4 = 16) plus the Father (3 x 3 = 9); or the Sun is made up of Matter (The Mother) and Spirit (The Father). Thus Wid-Ar is the son of Frigga (Earth Mother = Matter) and Woden (Spirit). The number of 'The Son' is 5 or its extension - 5, 55, 555. (The name Wid-Ar, using English Gematria - A = 1, B = 2, C = 3 etc.  - adds to 55.) 

If we see the human body as the microcosm and relate this to these ideas then the central point (navel) could be seen as the Central Pillar (Omphalos = Om-Phallus) which itself is linked to the Solar-Phallic God - Ingwe-Frey. This is the Hara-Centre and the Ur-Source or Or-igin - the Source of the Inga-Fire which is linked to the Black Sun or Hidden Sun. This is also linked to Woden as The Serpent at the base of the Sacred Mountain (Knit Mountain) - the serpent being a phallic-symbol in many cultures. 

The Spear of Woden ('Gift of Ing') is symbolic of the World Pillar or Cosmic Pillar which is made clear when we note that the word 'spear' comes from a root meaning 'beam', which itself relates to a pillar that holds something up. We can find this symbolism in the legend of Cuthman -

Here 'Cuthman' can be seen holding a pillar or beam which is to be the central beam of the church dedicated to him. His 'garters' make up the Anglo-Saxon Ing-Rune as shown here. We can deduce that Ingwe-Frey was connected to the 'pillar' or Sacred Centre. As I have shown before, on the Holy White Stone of Ing the message is - 'Gift of Ing' (Gyfu-Ing runes) which is 'Fire' (Ken-Rune) -

This stone reads from the bottom (Gyfu) to the top (Ing) and is found at Steyning ('Stone of Ing') in West Sussex. The Ken-Rune is the Y-shaped version, the 'crosspiece' being added at a later time, presumably to 'Christianise' the stone of heathen origins. This stone itself would represent a standing pillar which would represent the Holy Mountain - Om-phallus at the Centre of the World. 

Referring back to 'The Sacred Triangle of Pagan Iceland' Einar Palsson mentions 'sixteen wounds' of the 'God of Grain' which is Osiris (Egypt) or Ingwe-Frey (Norse), as well as being the Krist in his true form. The line of the hypotenuse of the 3:4:5 triangle is thus extended to 6 to account for the '16 wounds' of the 'God of Grain. In 'Njall's Saga' the 'God of Grain' is represented by Hoskuldr Hvitanesgothi who is slain by 5 killers whilst he is sowing in a field dressed in a scarlet robe. There are two people named Hoskuldr in the saga, one as named above (Gothi of White Ness) and the other a 'Hidden Son' of Niall who dies of the 16 wounds. It is strange that 16 years after the appearance of the 'Sign of the Son of Man' this Black Sun symbol would appear. 

These mysteries are as yet only partly revealed so this is not the end of this work; there are many things as yet to come to light regarding the Sacred Mountain and the Black Sun. 

Odroerir

The symbol known as Odroerir is that of three horns intertwined to form a left-handed Trifos (Three-Armed Swastika). The symbol is very much akin to the Walknut which is made up of three interlaced triangles, for the above can be seen as three interlaced circles when the horns are extended. The 'spin' (on our version, drawn by Siegmund) is anti-clockwise or anti-sunwise ('widdershins' *) and thus goes against the flow of time which moves towards decay and death. This is important when we consider the runes that we have placed on the horns.

(* 'widdershins' stems from 'widder' which is a Germanic term which actually means 'to return' and this is thus symbolic of the return to the origins or the Ur-Time.)

Ansuz - Laguz - Uruz : ALU : these runes move backwards or downwards back to the source (Ur-Source) or origins (Ur). ALU is thus the magical force that seeks to return to the source. The formula also tells us that we start at Ansuz (Odroerir) which is 'The Light of the Gods' and move through Lagu (Son) which is the Blood Memory and then down to Ur (Bodn) which is the Earth - this formula draws the Spirit of Light down to the Earth. 

The 'Dancing Warrior' shows Woden leading a Warrior-Dance of the Ulfhednar Warriors. Here we see Woden with Twin Spears, but the important point to note is the symbolism of the horns -

1. The Solar Horns which are made up of Twin Serpents ending in the beaks of birds - symbolic of the Priest.

2. The Lunar Horns or Hero's Light which are the twin horns pointing downwards and representing the Warrior. 

Combined in this symbolism is the aim of the Aryan Warrior - the ability to fuse the Solar and Lunar Powers in the individual. The Sun lights the day with its powerful rays, and the darkness of night is lit by the reflection of the Sun onto the Moon. The Sun's rays are reflected into the Inner Consciousness - into the Darkness of Night - through the Lunar Horns. 

The Gateway to Thule -

• The 'ego' is combined with the Self (Selbst).
• The individuality of the rational consciousness is moved closer to the Sea of Unconsciousness without its ceasing to be conscious.
• The Light penetrates into the Darkness of the Unconscious, moving from the Golden Sun of Daylight and the rational consciousness into the Black Sun of Individuation.
• The Centre that appears there is the Self which is a circle whose circumference is everywhere and whose centre is nowhere.
• The Wafeln (Light of the Rational Consciousness) sails beneath the surface of the Sea of the Unconscious with its lights full on. 

The term Odroerir can be rendered 'Wod-Roarer' and refers to the Woda-Force which is that of 'Divine Madness' or 'Divine Intoxication', linking this force to that of the ALU-Force. At the top of the Aryan Tree is the Eagle whilst at the base of the Aryan Tree is the Serpent. The link between the two, and the pathway between the two is the squirrel Ratatosk which means -

Rata = rapture, ecstasy, or orgasm.

Tosk = tusk, probably meaning 'double'.

This symbolism is also connected to the ecstatic trance, to orgasm and thus to the Tantric Rite as shown in the Myth of Knit Mountain. The term 'tusk' which may symbolise 'double' hints at the upward-downward movement of ALU-ULA and the squirrel running up and down the Aryan Tree (Spinal Column). 

The basic concept of the Kundalini (Kan-Force) is to move the Shakti-Force (Base of the Spine - Coiled Serpent) up the Spinal Column to unite with the Shiva-Force (The Eagle or Winged Coiled Serpent). The Sun and the Moon are united in the Sacred Wedding. In Folkish Wodenism Freya (Coiled Serpent) is united with Woden (Eagle-Winged Coiled Serpent). 

The colours of the Horn Triskelion are -

Black - Uruz - Wyrd

Red - Laguz - Werdandi

White - Ansuz - Sculd

The secret of the ALU-ULA and the Three Horns or Three Cauldrons is to chant the rune-names whilst meditating upon the Power-Centres, and to experiment on the tones used for ALU and ULA, remembering that scale is always used in musical work - Do-Re-Me-So-Fa-La-Ti-Do - which is a seven-scale returning to the original source. Likewise with the ALU-ULA chant where the sound varies for each power-centre.

Uruz - Earth

Lagu - Blood

Ansuz - Spirit-Inspiration

(Note: the term 'in-spir-ation' contains the essence of 'spirit' so it is valid to equate this centre with 'spirit'.)

Just as Ratatosk 'scurries' up-and-down Iggdrasil the movement should be up-and-down' the Spinal Column or Mount Me-Ru/Mount Su-Me-Ru. I have here used the alternative name Su-Me-Ru (Sumeru) because of its root-meanings -

SU - To generate, to produce/to agitate, to drive, to move swiftly.

ME - To measure.

RU - 'rune', secret, to roar, to whisper.

'Mount Me-Ru' (in our Folkish Wodenic Lore) thus means 'Measurement of Runes' and 'Mount Su-Me-Ru' means 'Generate the Measurement of Runes', through the movement of this energy between the 'cauldrons' or Power-Centres using the Spinal Column (or rather its unseen counterpart). The idea of 'moving swiftly' comes through the symbolism of Rata-Tosk which is the power of ecstasy and rapture produced by the movement of energy. There is a subtle play-on-words here because the Aryan Root *su- is the root of 'sow' which is a pig, and the 'tusks' are that of the Boar.

Odroerir is based upon the Od-Force also known as the Odic-Force or the Odil-Force which is also associated with the Odal-Rune or Edel-Rune. Again, this force has different variants -

Adel - Edel - Idal - Odal - Udal

The first and the third letters can be interchanged, but the root-form is always DL though this can also be rendered TL or in the Old English THL. As the rune-stave itself shows this is the 'Gift of Ing' since the stave is made up of a bind-rune of Gyfu and Ing. The 'Gift of Ing' is associated with fire, and thus the Fire-Serpent. In Indo-European usage our 'fire' refers to the element of fire, but the term igni refers to the force or power behind this, and thus Inga (as a reflection of Agni) refers to fire as a force or energy.

The 'Racial Homeland' idea in the name 'At-al-land', the Aryan Root *at-al meaning 'race, also appears in the root-word THL which suggests 'Thule' and the Place of Origins. This is why the Odal-Daeg runes are placed as they are, and are interchangeable in the rune-row, i.e. Odal-Daeg or Daeg-Odal. The Odal Rune is the Rune of Thule and the Origins, and Daeg is the Rune of the New Dawn and of the New Cycle of Ages. Odal suggests the rising of Thule-Ataland which has been recorded in various ancient legends. 

In the Old English version of the Daeg-Rune we have Twin Staves (Gateway) with the Gyfu-Rune within, thus the 'gift' being the 'Gateway to Thule'. This is also shown in the Long Man of Wilmington which has Twin Staves and faces towards the North and to Thule. This is another 'Gateway to Thule'. Thule (as Hyperborea) is associated with the Swan, and the Swan is associated with the 'Third Eye Centre' which here we have symbolised by the Ansuz-Rune. This is why the Ear-Rune is associated with 'earth' and the Cweorth-Rune with 'fire' (transformation) and the Long Man with Cygnus the Swan. The Swan represents transformation since it starts off as a duckling and is transformed into a White Swan. This is symbolic of the evolutionary transformation into the Superman.

Using the Ansuz-Rune (Ancestral Rune) or the AEsc-Rune is fitting since this is the 'First Man', and ancient legends see mankind with the Third Eye opened and the Pineal Gland functioning, which does not apply today where this organ has atrophied. The Aryan Root *as- means 'to breathe', 'exist', 'live', 'to be' and represents Being whilst the Base-Centre - Ur - is linked to Wyrd/Urd which is a word meaning 'to become', thus representing Becoming. The 'First Man' represents the Aryan Archetype.

The Triskelion symbol suggests turning and thus becoming ('wyrd' means 'to twist', 'to turn' and 'to become'), and in the way we have used it this refers to returning to the source - turning against the flow of time. The 'fusion' of opposites (Sun & Moon) is the union of Shakti & Shiva (Freya and Woden) which takes place at the upper centre (HE/SHE) and going beyond this stage means crossing the abyss (through the Black Hole-Black Sun) where this union becomes a separation and the 'I' is transformed into the Absolute I. 

The three horns also represent the Three Worlds - Asgard-Midgard-Hela - which (as the symbol hints at) are linked together and not separated. These are really the three levels, each containing three worlds, making the Nine Worlds of Norse Mythology. We could see each of these 'Horn-Centres' as having three centres within each, making the Nine Wheels (Chakras) of the Miguel Serrano system - thus 3 x 3 x 3 which makes 27, a number which comes within the sequence -

27 - 54 - 108 - 216 - 432

The number 432 is linked to 432,000 which is the number of years in the Kali Yuga and the number of Einheriar that leave Valhalla to fight the final conflict. The Number 27 is linked to kingship (Kon) and to fire, and thus to the idea of the Awakened Ones. Woden's Warriors go to Valhalla in order to be resurrected again and again, age after age, to continue the Holy War against the Dark Joten - the Forces of Darkness and Chaos. They are the Bodhisattvas or Enlightened Beings who are resurrected at will when they are needed, but who exist outside the Cycles of Time. 

Odroerir is the Mead of Inspiration given to us by the Gods, but it is also the container of this Holy Mead. When we raise the Mead-Horn this is not a mere 'toast' but should be a Magical Gesture where the Mead is 'charged' by the power of the gesture made when hallowing the Mead-Horn (the Holy Fylfot in our case) whence this power is then taken into the Folk-Ring as the Holy Mead is drunk by those present. This applies to our Wodenic Rites and to the Symbel. This is where the ALU-ULA Formula links to the Ancestral Power and to the Wyrd of the Group. 

The Formula ALU-ULA is simply a reflection of the two terms and thus a form of movement between two worlds or dimensions. There is also a numerical secret within this formula directly connected to what we have already said -

Ansuz = 4 (4th rune)

Laguz = 21 (21st rune)

Uruz = 2 (2nd rune)

The number for ALU and ULA is thus 27, with the whole formula adding to 54, and from this we get -

54 x 2 = 108

108 x 2 = 216

216 x 2 = 432

The number 432 is symbolic of 432,000 which is the number of years in the Kali Yuga, and the number of Einheriar Warriors that leave Valhalla led by Woden and Ragnar Lodbrok. The Number 27 is also 3 x 3 x 3 and associated with Kingship and with Fire (Kon - Kan). This is an Ancestral Rune Formula as we stated long ago but is also connected to the Three Horns or Three Cauldrons and to the Walknut ('Wolf-Knot') which is the symbol of the binding of the Woden Initiate to Woden - the Ancestral God.

In the Chakra system animal symbols are used for certain chakras, and we could perhaps do this for the Three Cauldrons -

Base Centre - Hara - Earth Centre = The Black Bull (Aurochs) = Ur

Sun Centre - Solar Plexus/Heart Centre = The Red Stag = Lagu

Head Centre - Third Eye Centre = The White Swan = Ansuz

This is just a thought and will need meditating upon carefully, but it gives an idea based upon logic. The Base Centre could also be the Serpent and the Head Centre the Eagle since these are symbols linked to Yggdrasil. Yggdrasil, which breaks down into three distinct parts -

Ygg = Woden 'The Terrible One', Ug = Rudra 'The Terrible One'.

Dra = to twist. to turn, to wind i.e the dra-gon or winged coiled serpent.

Sil = the Sun.

Yggdrasil - the Sun-Dragon of Ygg. Which equates with the Irminsul which also breaks into three distinct parts -

Ir = Ar.

Man = Man.

Sul = the Sun.

Irminsul is the Sun-Man Ar and the fusion of opposites that creates the Haeldom, and is the High God of the Saxon Nation - Irmin-Arman. On the Sutton Hoo Helmet the Serpent moves across the top of the head meeting the Eagle-Swan-Dragon at the Third Eye - this is a cultic mask dedicated to 'The Masked One' - Woden - and to the Warrior Initiation by the god Woden.

The Life-Rune (Eolhs- Man) and the Death-Rune (Calc-Yr) together make the Hagal-Rune and also the Wending-Horn which is the 'turning-horn' since the root *wend means 'to turn'. The Triskelion is also a 'turning-horn' as seen by the symbol of the three horns turning widdershins against the flow of time and backwards to the source and origins. The Haegl-Rune that we use in the Ar-Kan Rune-Lag also contains the male-female union as seen in the rune-stave itself, and it also contains twin Ur-Runes reflected one above the other.

All around England (and Britain for that matter) have been found Golden Torcs from the Iron Age 'Celts', which we have shown to be in great part a Germanic Folk kindred to the Saxon English. The word 'torc' means 'to twist' or 'to turn' and the symbol is made up of twisted gold wires which make the form of a 'rope'. This itself should be significant for the 'torc' worn around the neck can only be a symbol of the hangman's rope and thus of Woden as the God of the Hanged. By whatever name he was known at this time this is the same god - Woden or Wydion. The Walknut or 'Wolf's Knot' forms a slip-knot when made up with a piece of cord, and is also that of the God of the Hanged. The aethelings who wore this Sacred Gold Torc were obviously dedicated to the god Woden.

Woden is the Great Initiator and this is why the upper centre is linked to Ansuz-AEsc which is the Rune of Woden. The symbolism of the Ash-Tree is also significant since this tree reproduces itself through seeds contained in 'keys' which have 'wings' and the 'wings' are symbolic of the Eagle-Winged Serpent. The Ash-Tree can grown tall and mighty and is a noble tree representing the First Man or Divine Ancestor of the Folk. As I stated above the neck-centre is where the Golden Torc was worn by the aethlingas, but we should also note that the head-centre is where the Golden Crown was worn, which is a material symbol of the hvareno or halo - the 'Glory of Light' representing the Kon or Kingship - the Sacral King. Both centres are contained within the area that the Ansuz-AEsc Rune symbolises.

There are also three Gifts of the Gods which we can connect to what we are doing here -

Od - Gift of Hoenir the Stork-God - the Divine Inspiration or Divine Madness.

Ond - Gift of Woden - the Vital Breath & Spirit.

Litr Goda - the Divine Spark, Light of the Gods.

One thing that has long puzzled me is the main 'Roman Roads' (*) of Britain, the A1 and the A5, which both run out of the capital, London, one going into Scotland, the other going into Wales (thus linking the Three Nations), which are seen to reflect the Milky Way in these islands. We have WAN (Watling Street - A5) and WIL (Ermine Street - A1) but where do we find WAY (representing Weoh of the trinity Woden-Will-Weoh)? Logically this must run southwards below London and end somewhere along the South Coast of England.

The A5 Watling Street runs from London to Anglesey (Angle's Island) ending at Holyhead ('Holy Head'). The A1 Ermine Street runs from London to Edinburgh ('Edwin's Burgh' - a Saxon King). These roads are named after Wate/Wade, father of Wayland the Smith, and Irmin/Ermin the High God of the Saxon Nation (Arya). The area of the Milky Way where the junction of WAN & WIL connects to WAY (Milky Way) is around the Galactic Centre where there is a 'bulge' and this is seen to be around the area of Cygnus the Swan. This is the 'Dark Rift' or 'Womb of the Mother'. It is the area around which is the 'Greater Wolf's Jaws and thus the area where Woden is 'swallowed' by the Fenris Wolf.

This information is taken from Otto Reuter who rediscovered the Saxon Sky-Lore, and in his work the bottom end of the Milky Way is pinpointed by Lokabrenna which is usually translated 'Loki's Brand'. This is the star we call Sirius and which was called Samr in Iceland and which is below the constellation of Orion the Hunter.

In a very interesting work called 'The Sacred Triangle of Pagan Iceland' by Einar Palsson he dwells on the Pythagorean Triangle 3:4:5 and its use in Heathen Iceland and then Christian Iceland, and the knowledge hidden in such texts as Njal's Saga. In this he equates Sirius with the South Star (Samr) and to the 90 degree angle of the 3:4:5 triangle, the North Star with the 36 degree angle, and Capricorn with the 54 degree angle. He also goes deeply into the Number 216 which is 6 x 6 x 6 and its being an important number in Heathen Lore. Capricorn he associates with the Womb of Creation, Yuletide, and to the Number 27 (half of the 54 degree angle). I have shown how Capricorn was once seen as a Gateway to the Gods (a 'stargate' in modern terms). We have also seen how the Child of Light is the 'Divine Spark' kindled in the 'Cave of the Mother' at the Yuletide, and in this same work we find that in Heathen Iceland this was connected to the Phoenix or Fire-Eagle which is symbolic of resurrection and renewal.

The twenty-seventh rune in the Ar-Kan Rune-Lag system (Ar-Kan Runes) is that of the Yr-Rune which is the 'Yew-Bow' and associated with the Yew-Tree, and I have (in another post) mentioned the link between Waendal, the Long Man and the Yew-Tree. This rune is also a glyph of the Y-shape of the Ur-Glyphic Irminsul, i.e. the Milky Way - and thus the 'Royal Roads of Albion' - enclosed in the Ur-Rune (Primal Rune). This is also YMIR - the 'Primal Sounding One' whose name can also mean 'hermaphrodite', i.e. HE/SHE as the Union of Opposites.

In this same book is mention of Egypt's early title of To-Mera which means the Land of the mr where the word mr refers to the pyramids, but more precisely the 3:4:5 Triangle that forms the meridian triangle of a pyramid - i.e. the triangle formed by a line from the central point to the tip, the line at the bottom that forms half the base, and the line from the tip to the side. This is interesting in view of our use of the term Me-Ru for the Sacred Mountain of the North, and its link to the spinal column and the Three Cauldrons. 

The Mead of Inspiration was made of Kvasir's Blood which was fermented by spittle, a known agent of fermentation. This was the blood of a god, and this god was a God of Knowledge, so Odroerir must inspire knowledge and thus wisdom. The Holy Blood was mixed with the Holy Mead to make the Mead of Inspiration which must thus contain the Blood-Memory of the Gods. It is interesting to note that Woden had to undergo a Tantric Rite in order to regain the Sacred Mead from the Giants, when he slept with Gunnlod for three nights in Knit Mountain. It is also to be noted that the Sacred Mead was kept in a mountain - symbolic of the Sacred Mountain. He entered at the base of the mountain by shape-shifting into a Serpent and left at the top of the mountain by shape-shifting into an Eagle.

The Serpent in many ancient cultures was a phallic symbol which fits with the nature of this Aryan Myth. It is also interesting to note that the point in the forehead where the Third Eye is said to be has 'wings' - the two eyebrows above each of our eyes. Certainly we have clear information that Woden had only one eye, and there are many depictions of him less an eye; however, this could be symbolism and the original meaning could have been that he sacrificed the Third Eye which seems to have been the cause of the evolution of the ego and the 'I' which gives mankind self-consciousness and self-awareness, as well as the ability to think logically.

Perhaps it is time that Aryan Man regained the use of the Third Eye and now that he is self-aware and self-conscious he will be a god-like being once more, but aware of this godliness. Man is the highest being on the planet due to his higher consciousness and higher intelligence - or at least that is how it should be. As such he has a duty and a responsibility for all other life on the Earth and to aid the evolution of others - that it is how it was at one time, a long time ago, when the Giant Race of God-Men walked the Earth and helped other peoples, bringing them culture and civilisation. Unlike the 'Master Race' that seeks total domination of all life, and thus (in the process) destroys everything around it, Aryan Man was given the gifts to help and aid others and to bring harmony and fellowship to the world.

The Mysteries of Ar

The Aryan Root *ar- means 'movement' or 'to plough' which suggests a link between the Arya/Aryans and the first agricultural civilisations. We can perhaps see this reflected in the stars through 'The Plough' (Great Bear-Woden's Waen) and 'The Driver of the Plough' (Bootes-Ing). The term 'movement' suggests the turning of the northern stars around the Pole Star, and also the apparent movement of the Sun across the day-skies. The term Arya or Aryan is usually held to mean 'noble' but I would suggest this meaning developed from an original related to the 'Sun-Generator' or 'Light-Generator' and referred to the Shining Ones of various myths and legends, or at least the descendants of this god-like race. 

There is a sequence which we shall now look at -

AR - ER - IR - OR - UR

From this we get the name Ir or Er which features in a Greek god who is the father of Atlas, thus connected to the World Column (holding the world on his shoulders is a symbol for this). But the same prefix is assigned to Irmin or Ermin who is the High God of the Saxon, and as we have shown the High God of the Arya. This name has variants in -

Arman

Irmin

Ermin

Iorman

Earman

It can also be found in the Saxon name for the Milky Way - Iring's Way - which is a title obviously meaning 'Son of Ir'. This name also features in the name Ir(e)land and its older name Er-in, which suggests that an Aryo-Germanic presence was in Ireland, also suggested by one legend of the ancient Milesians referring to the ancient castes of Ireland (which we shall go into another time. 

We have five runes whose names connect in some way to this idea -

Ur

Ar

Yr

Ior

Ear

The first two can be found in the Common Germanic Futhark, and the first three in the Scandinavian rune-rows, but the last two are found only in the English Rune-Row, together with the other three. Likewise the first three can be found in the Armanen Runes of Guido von List. 

The Ear-Rune and the Cweorth-Rune have the shape of the Irminsul - Column of Irmin - as do the Herne Giant (Cerne Abbas Giant) and the Long Man of Wilmington. The name Irminsul can be rendered Yr-Man-Sul and using the Armanen System the Yr-Man formula contains the Unity of Opposites (Female-Male/She-He). This column can also be seen as the Ar-Man-Sul - the 'Column of Ar-Man'. 

The Yr-Rune is associated with the Yew-Tree so it can be no coincidence that just a short distance from the Long Man of Wilmington is an ancient Yew-Tree and that the area next to the hundred in which the Long Man features was known as the Tree of the Helmed Waendal. We can thus see that the Yew-Tree has associations with Waendal, and perhaps also to Irmin  (Yr-Man). Being evergreen and able to completely renew itself this tree is symbolic of resurrection and of immortality. 

Returning to the Yr-Man idea this formula (of Miguel Serrano) is the basis of the Union of Opposites symbolised by the Life-Rune (Man) and the Death-Rune (Yr). The fusion of the two runes creates the Hagal-Rune or Heil-Rune and it is thus strange to relate that a name associated with the Herne Giant in Dorset is Heil - a name which has baffled scholars for many years. (It does not fit with the 'Celtic' image of this hill figure.) The figure is a very ancient representation of the 'Club-God' who is the god associated with the Mannerbunde, and whose image can be found on the coat-of arms of the Wandel Family. 

I have shown before how the figure of the Herne Giant reflects the constellation of Orion the Hunter which is a 'winter constellation' and which thus symbolises the direction of 'death' since this is in the west of England. The Long Man is in the east of England and symbolic of 'new life' and of the spring-summer months (seen in its being symbolic of Cygnus the Swan). In these two hill-figures we can find the idea of Life-Death or Yr-Man and in the Solar-Phallic form of the Herne Giant we can see represented regeneration from apparent 'death'. (This is also apparent in the Long Man which has a 'phallus' above it in the form of a Long-Barrow ending in a Round Barrow, which apparently points to the head of the hill figure and across to the White Horse/White Hind on Hindover Hill to the west of the figure.) That the two hill-figures are connected is seen in the Long Barrow (comet-shaped) which is to the east of the Long Man, named 'Hunter's Burgh' suggesting the Hunter-God (Orion-Woden). 

The idea of Life-Death also suggests a beginning and an end, or the first and the last, and this is suggested by these two hill-figures, one in the East (Beginning-Dawn) and one in the West (End-Dusk). I have shown before how the Black Sun of August 11th 1999 heralded the conception of a new world-age - the Age of Ing - and also the coming of the Last Avatar and Incarnation of Woden (as Wid-Ar) on this Earth. Wid-Ar is the 'first and the last' the beginning and the end' as prophesied in various traditions. I have also suggested that the area around the Long Man of Wilmington is a 'Time-Clock' put there by the ancient Shining Ones which was set to awaken our times through the appearance of the Hale-Bopp Comet in 1987, which brought to us the Helgi Mysteries. 

The Ior-Rune shape suggests a 'windmill' and here we may well find a link to Waendal/Mundilfore who is the turner of the World Mill. The rune has been associated with Iormungand (Jormungand) whose name can be rendered Ior-mun-gand which can thus mean 'Wand of Iormun' and even 'Wand of Irmin' perhaps. We could see this as the Cosmic Axis - 'Wand of Irmin' - around which the stars turn, and thus equate Irmin with Waendal-Mundelfore. (For what it is worth the area above the Long Man is named 'Windmill Hill', though no windmill exists there today, though there may have been one in the past.) 

I have also shown before how the Long Man is the April Fool or Divine Fool associated with Parsifal-Hamlet-Lohengrin and thus The Hooded Man. My good friend and comrade Hamasson has suggested a link between the Odal-Rune and The Hooded Man, due to the shape of the rune itself. This is emphasised by the name Od-al since in Kent the Hooden-Horse (pronounced as uooden-horse as in the true pronunciation of uuoden (i.e. 'odin' as the Scandinavians pronounce the name). In ancient symbolism the rounded shape similar to the Odal-Rune was symbolic of Atlas holding the world upon his shoulders - we are back to the Upholder of the World-Pillar. The name 'Atlas' suggests At-al-As which would mean 'Racial Ase', especially if the rune is connected to him via its shape. 

The Yr-Rune when drawn in its ur-glyphic form shows an Ur-glyphic Irminsul within the Ur-Rune (Primal Mountain) and this symbol is also known as the Ang-Rune in this form, symbolic of the Three Royal Lines of Anglia This has a 'trunk' (Waelsingas) and twin 'branches' (Wulfingas-Heodeningas). We can find evidence of this through names on the east side of England, i.e. Ancient Anglia - Wuffingas of Suffolk, Waelsingas (Walsingham) of Norfolk, and the Haddingas (Heodeningas) near Edinburgh, the area now in Scotland once known as 'Saxony'. 

The Aryan Root *ar- is also the root of our word 'year' which itself suggests the movement of time through the seasons, and thus Cyclic Time. The God of Cyclic Time is Waendal-Mundilfore who moves the World Mill, and whose son is Hama-Heimdall who incarnated in order to save the Ancient Wisdom and to recreate the Divine Social Order of the Gods. Hama was thus born of Nine Wave-Maidens ('Music of the Spheres' - sound waves) and is an 'avatar' or 'archetype' that is resurrected at certain times of the Cosmic Cycle in various forms to fulfil a destiny. 

The Germans prior to World War II resurrected the name Ara-Hari as a Solar-God, and the name contains Ar and Hari which are rooted in the same meanings, the latter a name of Vishnu as the 'Blonde God'. This is also connected to Woden since the title Har may be rooted in *haihs which means 'one-eyed' or 'blind'. We use this in Woden's Folk in an Invocation of Woden, based upon the same type of mantra as used by the Hari Krishna, but with a different tune and layout, ours based upon 61 Words of Power, the Number 61 being that of W-O-D-E-N. 

The Root *ar- can be found in so many variations and words that give us insights into its many meanings and many levels of meaning -

Ar - Er - Ir - Or - Ur - Yr - Ear - Ior - Har - Hari - Hara - Heri - Herian - Aryan - Arya - Hera - Heru - Hero - Hor(us) - Herne - .....

In the Eddas we find a strange phrase ar var alda which crops up in one instance in the Helgi Lays, and which is sometimes translated as 'in ancient times' but which could be perhaps better translated as referring to the Ur-Time or First Time. The aim of any form of ritual should be to connect to this Primal Time or First Time. The words seem to be connected to the title Uralten and to the Wr.Alda of the Oera Linda Book. These names would mean roughly - The Primal Old One or The Primal Ancient One. 

The form AR is a reflection of RA which is, of course, the Egyptian name of the Sun-God, and Ara-Hari seems to have been a name used of the Sun-God. We have two examples of this type of 'reflection' in THOR-ROTH and in TIR-RIT both cases being god-names and symbolism connected to that particular god. The word ara contains both AR and RA which may not be a coincidence. 

The Ar-Rune is named as Ger in the English Rune-Row and Jera in the Common Germanic Futhark. These all refer to 'year' and to 'that which completes a cycle' and thus to cyclic time, which we have already looked at in connection with Waendal-Mundilfore. Both the yearly cycle and the Precession of the Equinoxes have the Sun as the central marker, around which the zodiac revolves - either clockwise (yearly cycle) or anticlockwise (precession). 

Irmin is the Aryaman of the Hindus, the Airyaman of Iran, Eremon of the Irish, and many more such names throughout the areas of the Indo-Europeans. This indicates that ER-IR can be replaced by AR and that this is a valid god-name that can be used, just as the Armanen uses the title Ar-Man which is a form of the Divine Ancestor or 'proto-man'. The name is often used of the Arya or Aryan Man which was a title used of the Twice-Born i.e. the Initiated Ones. The High God of the Arya was thus named Ar, Er or Ir with many variations in sound. 

The name Arya has also been used of the High Goddess of the Arya and we may well have an example of this ancient concept in the Old English charm for a 'Land Remedy' where we find the invocation -

Erce, Erce, Erce, Mother of Earth....

The title Erce fits well with Er or Ermin who could be 'the Almighty, the Lord everlasting' mentioned in the same text. We have thus a male-female pairing of Er-Erce if this is how the text originally worked. This same charm has the following invocation -

Hail to thee, Earth, Mother of Men!
Be fruitful in God's embrace,
Filled with food for the use of men.

The term 'God' has obviously replaced a heathen god-name here, and in the Robin of Sherwood series this was rendered -

Hail to thee Earth, Mother of Men!
Be fruitful in the embrace of the Sky-Father!

The latter is perhaps nearer to the true version and the 'Sky-Father' would be Tiw or Irmin, or even Woden as the chief god of the AEsir. 

It has been said that the name Erce is Greco-Latin rather than Old English, but this emphasises what has been said rather than negating it. If this is so then it is akin to arch- or arche- which refers to 'beginning' from which we get the term archetype which means 'Primal Type' or Ur-Type. We are left with the conclusion that Ir, Er, Irmin, Ar, Ar-Man is a very ancient title of the High God of The Arya, and the Saxon Nation were Aryans since their god was Irmin. 

The Runic Symbolism of The Hooded Man and Wid-Ar the Avenger

This is the Rune of The Hooded Man which goes back to at least 1997 when I was given The Helgi Mysteries and this rune-symbol was specially carved on an Oak Walking Stick dedicated to this Mystical Experience. The drawing was done by Hamasson, and it is through a dream of his that I am now able to disclose further secrets of the Mystery of The Hooded Man that link to the Mystery of Wid-Ar the Crowned and Avenging Son. The above is a bind-rune and is linked to another symbol (which it contains within itself) which was also carved on the same Oak Walking Stick, but which also featured in a very mysterious happening at Wayland's Smithy some years ago.

To save time I have placed two symbols (Hagal-Runes) one on the top of the other, but the symbolism is joined in the original version. It thus makes an Is-Rune and two Hagal-Runes joined in one bind-rune, though (as I am going to show) there are a number of runes hidden in this one symbol. This symbol was also carved onto the Oak Walking Stick (Rune-Staff). Before we go into this we need to start from the basic Odal-Rune.

As Hamasson has noted before the Odal-Rune represents The Hooded Man which we find from the rune-name - 

OD-AL - OD-IN - THE HOODED ONE

In Hamasson's recent dream the Odal-Rune had a 'crown' on the top, in a V-shape, thus making the Ing-Rune. I feel that this is one of the most important revelations to come out of these mysteries, especially at this time. We need to look at this symbolism again -

The Odal-Rune = Rune of Woden = The Hooded Man.

The Ing-Rune = Rune of Wid-Ar = The Crowned & Avenging Son.

This symbolism needs to be studied carefully, and we need to add to this that HelgiH is not only The Hallowed One but also The Hidden One. If we go up to the first drawing of The Hooded Man we find that it has the added Wyn-Runes (back-to-back) making an alternative Ing-Rune - the Wyn-Rune is the 8th rune, thus we have the Mystic Number 8-8 added to the stave. So we can extend the above formula -

The Odal-Rune = Rune of Woden = The Hooded Man.

The Ing-Rune = Rune of Wid-Ar = The Crowned and Avenging Son.

The Wyn-Runes = HelgiH = The Spirit 88.

All of these concepts are contained in The Hooded Man Rune which, as I said, goes back to March 1997 which is exactly 18 years ago!  The original symbolism on the Oak Rune-Staff was a glyph of the Caduceus with Twin-Coiled Serpents, and the 'knob' at the top had 'wings' representing the Hale-Bopp Comet, which was the root of these mysteries. 

In the original Twin Hagal-Rune glyph the ends of the upright staff were slightly extended (done unconsciously) and here is the strangest thing, because this was 'corrected' by one of the strangest happenings at the Wayland's Smithy some years ago. This is the gist of what happened -

Both Thornna and my ex-wife had dreams concerning the date of November 10th that year, both within a few days of the Folk-Moot we held on that date. Thornna's dream was that an 'Aragorn-type figure' would be present at the moot, and my ex-wife's was that a long-haired man with a black dog would attend the moot. Indeed, this turned out to be the same figure, that of a young chap with long hair and beard who claimed to be a 'druid'. It was not until we were sitting around the fire at night that I realised the significance of this young man - he was sitting with his Black Dog which jarred the memory of the dream! 

This 'druid' stated that he had been on a tour around Britain and had come across four strange symbols -

A Black Dragon in Scotland.

A Red Dragon in Wales.

A Green Dragon in East Anglia.

A White Dragon at the Wayland's Smithy.

If this alone was not strange enough he then asked me about some runes he had had visions of whilst walking through the trees nearby - they turned out to be Anglo-Saxon Runes. The runes were three main ones - Haegl (reversed), the Twin Hagal-Runes Symbol, and the Daeg-Rune. For some inexplicable reason he also pointed out to me that the upright stave on the Twin Hagal-Runes was level with the ends of the Xs on the stave. The other two runes were that of the Eolhs-Rune and Beorc-Rune.

The meaning of this has now come to light, many years after this experience at the Wayland's Smithy. I am now going to bring this to light -

The reversed Haegl-Rune is the 'Hail-Rune' - a rune of disruption and drastic change, which I see now as the drastic changes made by Woden's Folk after the (minor) disruption of the spring of 2014. It was through this disruptive input that these changes would come about. The central bind-rune of Twin Hagal-Runes represents Wid-Ar, the Crowned and Avenging Son, and also represents the coming Haeldom that he will usher in. The Daeg-Rune is the New Dawn which will come with the Folk-Awakening and the coming of Wid-Ar the Avenger. The two 'minor' runes represent the 'Resurrection of the Folk' (Beorc) and the Flame of Life renewed (Eohls) within the Folk. 

It would seem that we have here a clear message of the coming appearance of the Last Avatar - Wid-Ar the Crowned and Avenging Son. This may be that of The Hooded Man but in both the 'Robin of Sherwood' series and the Legends of HelgiH there are three incarnations of each -

It is also clear to me that this appearance has been restated for a clear purpose at this time, and that things are quickening in this era. 

I would like now to look at the symbolism of The Hooded Man Rune in regard to it as a bind-rune of other runes. Here we have an array of runes all bound into this same symbol -

Isa-Rune 

Ken-Rune

Eohls-Rune

Calc-Rune

Ing-Rune (three variants)

Odal-Rune

Gyfu-Rune

Hagal-Rune

Rad-Rune

Sig-Rune

Ger-Rune

Nyd-Rune

Eh-Rune (Younger Futhark/Armanen)

Wyn-Rune

Thorn-Rune

Feoh-Rune

Aesc-Rune

Ior-Rune

Eoh-Rune

Tir-Rune

The Twin Hagal-Rune Symbol - This contains the basic runes of an Is-Rune and two Hagal-Runes both of which suggest cold (Is = Ice & Hagal is Hail {Snowflake}). They both suggest the element if Ice. Yet when the two Hagal-Rune are joined we get the Ing-Rune which is the Rune of the Inga-Fire (Agni-Fire), and when we take this as an Odal-Rune and Ken-Rune added to the top of it, we again get the element of Fire. Indeed the Ken-Rune is the 'King-Rune' and thus the 'Crown' added to it (Hamasson's Dream). This is the Rune of the Kon(ungr). What we have in all is the balance of Ice and Fire (balance of Darkness and Light) in the same symbol.

To The Hooded Man Symbol (Odal-Rune) we have added the 'crown' (of Wid-Ar) which transmutes this figure into the Crowned and Avenging Son (Ing). This suggests to me that The Hooded Man (in one of his aspects or incarnations) appears before the coming of the Avatar, and that he does so in order to prepare the way for His Coming. This may also be true of Helgi Hundingsbane who comes before the coming of Helgi the Haddinga. We have here the theme of an aspect of the god Woden appearing in order to prepare the way for He Who Returns as the Prophet of Wid-Ar. 

We have seen here how the drastic changes we have been forced into making are necessary and guided by the Will of Woden. Our Divine Mission is to create a new Folk-Religion and these changes have been made in order to do that, and to extend this beyond the boundaries of England. 

The Odal-Rune is itself made up of a Gyfu-Rune ('gift') and an Ing-Rune (Ing), thus 'Gift of Ing'. This is important because it is Ingwi who is the driving-force behind these mysteries and it is the Spear of Woden (Gungnir = 'Gift of Ing') that is the weapon wielded by Parsifal (The Hooded Man - Pure Fool). This links the Odal-Rune to the Gar-Rune. 

The central rune of the symbol is the Ger-Rune which is the Cyclic Rune and refers to the balance of the two opposing forces (Light & Dark - Fire and Ice). The balance is held in -

The Hooded Man 

The Sword Albion - England

Albion is England, which is the Seventh Sword of Wayland made up of the Six Tribes of the Inga-Folk (East Saxons, West Saxons, Swedes, Danes, Norwegians and Wolsungas - all of whom came here to Albion to unite under the White Dragon Banner under the Folk-Nation of England. 

Hael Wid-Ar! Hael the Crowned & Avenging Son!

"When the Ice of the Darkest of Night melts away under the Fire of the Black Sun of the Inner Earth, the Poisoned Apple shall fall away, and the Sleeping-Goddess shall awaken, throw off her White Wolf-Skin and arise renewed by the Golden Apples of the Immortals. When the Moon is under her feet and she is clothed in the Golden Sun, she shall bring forth the Divine Child of Light who will lead the English Folk in their Divine Mission against the Servants of Darkness." 

Prophecy 88 - November 9th 2014.

The Solar Eclipse of March 20th - the Spring Evennight - was due to a 'Super-Moon' we are led to believe. The August 11th 1999 Solar Eclipse was the Divine Wedding of the Sun and the Moon in the House of the White Dragon, the time of the conception of the Age of Ing. The Spring Evennight is symbolic of the New Dawn and the balance of Light and Darkness (The Hooded Man).
