"In this artwork, I wanted to display the mystery and wisdom associated with the All-Father of the Norse gods. The artwork features Odin with all his attributes, his ravens, his wolves, his spear, his drinking horn, his hat and his magic ring. The illustration also features various references to stories related to Odin like the three shields in the bottom. The first shield shows Odin sacrificing his eye to the well of Mimir for wisdom, the second shield depicts Sleipnir Odin's eight legged horse and the third shield shows how Odin and his two brothers carved the first two humans Ask and Embla out of wood."

9 adults and 5 children of The Hearth of Devon assembled for a blot to Woden on Dartmoor this weekend. The Neolithic stone row served as a procession path leading to a cist/dolmen which we used as a harrow (ON: hörgr). The ritual area was demarcated by hazel poles and a we-band (ON: vébönd). The hlaut bowl is positioned in the centre of the harrow with a flame to the South, the mead horns to the West, a silver oath ring to the East facing the supplicants at Delling's door, and a Woden stapol on the North side of the harrow.

Hail Odin on Odin‘s Day!

Thought bring Memory in its wake,

And remembrance

Of the Old Wanderer,

The One-Eyed God

On Gungnir speared,

To Yggdrasil‘s spreading reach resigned;

Nine nights, nine days

Nine worlds traversed,

Their fate in runic lore inscribed,

By Allfather divined.

Wanderer of the World

Even when I am distant, wandering amidst the past, mimicking your mind, focused on finding my Truth, you guide me back home. Wanderer, O’ Woden, you hold a place deep in my heart. I feel the beat of your staff on earth, in time with the rhythm in my chest. Your runes are my comfort, your wisdom is my well. No matter how far I stray, O’ Woden, I always wander home.

I know Wednesday has already passed for me, but I had a STRONG connection with Odin last night. He was coming in strong which led to me researching him more and feeling his grandfatherly energy, which I so honestly crave.

He wanted to show me that he was there and well, I told him the troubles I was having with a relationship. And he was giving me advice I needed to hear in that moment. I am not sharing however since it's private, but it was helpful and comforting to hear.

He has his moments of coming and going, but when he decides to stay for a while, it's quite reassuring.

I appreciate the old man.

Woden: How did you get past security?! My fortress is impenetrable!

Persephone: Door was unlocked.

Woden: Son of a BITCH!
