The Grove Is Growing Fast, And We Have You To Thank !
The Grove Of Odin, for those who don't already know, is an Online Norse Germanic Ministry, our messaging is published here on Substack. We cover everything Pagan, from Living with Nature, to the Eddas, and the Havamal. Plus we have several goals as a team, including plans to obtain the first American Sacred Grove in the remote wilderness of the Great Smokey Mountains.
This progress of Pagan Religious Rights in America, and in each of our States of residence are important issues to many of us. The reasons vary, for some of us it's burial rights, and others to drop the regulations on basic liberties like self sustaining and homesteading. For instance the regulation of owning chickens, collecting solar or wind power, and distilling spirits for antiseptics and fuel have to be lifted, as they are unconstitutional. These are all infringements on people's right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
The formation of an actual Odinist Sacred Grove (Pagan Church, and burial grounds) is also important for many other different reasons right now, many of which we do cover on the video. One that we did not cover, is giving the different types of modern Pagan Odinist, like Anglo Saxon, Norse, or Germanic Tribal branches like Suebian, Bructeri, etc. common grounds. We aren't looking to become the Pagan version of the Vatican, and we have no designs on stripping the wealth of our community for the profit of a few. The ultimate goal is to build something FOR the community, and once it's started and established will be quite easy to keep going, and will begin growing with the elbow grease of a few motivated members. This brings us to the final issue, and one that has become an elephant in the room for US Armed Forces members, who are Odinist, and need some type of pre arranged funeral plans. Plus this is equally important for some of the older generation of Pagan folk in America, who would like to plan their burials and save their families the hassle of that burden. Literally all of the ancient practices, be they boat cremation, open air pyre, or cairn / mound burials, have all been made illegal in all 50 U.S. States.
We as Americans, even as Pagans have the right to Funerals befitting our religious beliefs, and the need for a place to have those services held, and after that, the burial mounds kept. These sacred grounds will be a place we can be visited by our still living loved ones once we pass on.
The Grove was founded by three Ordained Norse Germanic Ministers, and Tribal Elders of The Tribe Of The Greyhorn Pagans. Within our “Pagan Think Tank” there are Norse, Germanic, and Anglo Saxon thought leaders, authors, writers, and podcasters who have come together share research, and ideas, and to build on the many common interests rather than a few minor differences.
