Yule!
14 years ago
Yep, I'm alive, just been forgetful to get my lazy ass on here, well, that's fixed!
Hail to all our new members in the past few months since I've been missing. So many of you! ;-;
How many of you here celeberate Yule in the Asatru sense, or do you celebrate Christmas? This doesn't include most of the Scandinavians, as Yule is still somewhat practiced in a sense, from what I get told.
How many of you are on facebook? Considering a matching facebook group for those who are interested, I think it would offer a better community, if combined with here, thoughts?
What are your plans for Yule; and what are your goals for the new year? Stay safe these holidays, and raise a horn to the Gods, I'm definitely planning to!
EDIT:
:userarygwen: is considering selling his mead online to members here, contact him for details!

FA+

I am on Facebook
I'll be working on my suit commissions, possibly be doing some work on my personal suit (I'm making a fursuit sized torc too, that's pretty neat in my book!), and working on a dissertation about the origins of anthropomorphism and therianthropy.
And christmas...never been a big thing in my family and neither for myself. So yeah.^^
And facebook, well I am not a fan of this thing.
I do have a tree in the house, but that has its roots in the Asatru tradition anyway. I admit I'm a sucker for Christmas decorations ;) But I don't celebrate Christmas itself. Traditionally in my country (Netherlands) it isn't celebrated with gifts and all of that, anyway.
I've tried to make traditional mead but lets just say it didn't turn out to be safe for consumption...or anything really lol.
We all just spend time sitting around talking and catching up on things, share great food and great drink. In recent times I've taken to the habit of having a form on honour seat by the fire who is for my father who sadly isn't with us anymore. We make a toast to him, and for myself I take time for a special thanks to those I feel help guide me through life.
I have to admit, as my family don't follow the same belief I do, so I generally do whatever it is that pleases them like putting up the creepy chucky-esque santa by the window...begrudgingly lol-that thing is creepy!
Erm, so yeah, that's how it is in my household-ramble over.
As for facebook, I try to avoid it personally but find it has it's uses..just rarely
And I am on facebook as well.
Oh, and count another facebook objector here as well.
