I am a Priestess of Freyja.
the Falcon is one of my 'fylgia'
among other 'fylgia'
The Seidr are the living embodiment
of the spiritual counterpart of Valkyries.
Their are many paths among the Vanatruar;
and although we are "Choosers of the Slain"
as many have popularized us;
We also take many other forms,
and perform many other duties.
While we respect and welcome our Asatruar cousins,
we are a Nordic branch of our Own.
We hold a high respect for ALL living beings.
I wear many masks- and yet my true face is always revealed...
I have many roles to serve many people- and yet I am always just Me...
The only thing I've discovered that is unchanging, is Change itself...
-Hetha 5/27/2008
Soldiers.
Real men and women.
People who serve-
Give up the comfort life
Sacrifice time with families.
To train, to do
their jobs.
Who give everything
and anything-
to protect us,
and each other.
Bravery, courage,
honor, respect, discipline-
Integrity, honesty, taking care
of each other-
these things are not new to you.
We are a part of each other-
Siblings we will always be!
Then, now and forevermore,
By your side- spiritually.
You more than make me proud,
to call you my brother.
Please come home to us,
when you are finished with your job.
Where you will be welcomed
with hugs, joy, and "Hoo-ah!"

Thank you so much.
Do you honestly think I belong to Odin?
While I respect and honor him, Freyja is my Patroness.
I belong to Her!
Return Of The Priestesses
From misty moor to mountain top,
From cavern depth to shining star,
Our minds are free to search for truth
Whether it be near or far.
With falcon feather cloaks we fly
Beyond the limits set by man.
Valkyrie swords, sharp and bright,
New dawn for women is Your plan.
Reveal the ancient women's paths
Of Mysteries and old powers strong.
Once more lift woman-hood up high,
To the rightful place where we belong.
Show us the past and that to come!
Grant us the gift of prophecy!
O, Ancient Goddess, direct our quest.
As we will, so mote it be!
-D.J. Conway-
From the book Falcon Feather and Valkyrie Sword
the first in the world,
When the gods with spears
had smitten Gollveig,
And in the hall
of Hor had burned her,
Three times burned,
and three times born,
Oft and again,
yet ever she lives.
22. Heith they named her
who sought their home,
The wide-seeing witch,
in magic wise;
Minds she bewitched
that were moved by her magic,
To evil women
a joy she was.
From
Völuspá
"The Wise Woman's Prophecy"
Translation by: Henry Adams Bellows
I know that I hung on a windy tree, nights all nine,
wounded by the spear given to Odin,
myself to myself,
on that tree of which no man knoweth,
from whence its root rises.
They dealt me no bread nor drinking horn,
I gazed down,
I took up the runes
roaring I took them,
and fell back again.
from "RUNATALS," in the HAVAMAL, translation by Edred Thorsson
Walking Zero
Sacrifice my vanity
Kick off my heels
a careless weight
on your hatred.
Understand, it's so simple
a simple "please"
to keep the faithful
on a wounded knee.
To the madness
I do confess
I never see myself
as blessed
(confused, unaddressed)
like a savior
I do caress
the truth is boredom
more or less
(amused, upset)
My time is only given up to you...
Too much to choose.
It's not mine to contemplate if I will lose..
With this- blood on my shoes..
Compromise in full extreme
cut off my heels..
Name a price on what's sacred..
Guaranteed I got something..
a royal disease,
take a flood to clean these streets.
To the madness
I do confess,
forever see myself as blessed..
(immune, obsessed)
like a savior I do caress
the truth is boredom-it's excess
(take more, give less)
my time is only given up to you..
too much to choose
it's not mine to contemplate if I will lose
with this- blood on my shoes.
