There are plenty of researchers out there far more knowledgeable than I, and I have no problem with that. I don’t consider these books revolutionary in any way either; I seriously doubt whether they will change the practice of Ásatrú in the modern world. What they are is an Ásatrú man’s view of the world after having been Ásatrú two years short of a full third of a century. They are my views. When I was in 6th grade just entering junior high school in Lambertville, Michi- gan, I had few thoughts about religion. Our town was a collection of German-American Lutherns (who, like my grandfather, rarely, if ever, attended church) and Polish-American Catholics who only went to church until they were old enough to start helping on the farm. My mom was the oddball French-Canadian-Ojibwa Catholic who forced me to go to Mt. Carmel Catholic church until I was 14 years old and who does not know to this day that I schwäntst (played “hookey”) catechism from age 8 on. I asked my Grampa Jack one morning when we were hoeing corn what religion he was. After a minute of leaning on his hoe and thinking he said, “I guess I belong to the Linzie religion” and that was good enough for my 6th grade mind. Back then, I really didn’t think much about anything except for Laura Berry (who still comes to mind off and on) and Melanie Sigler. I was schwäntsing Mr. Thompson’s study hall one fine day and wound up in the school library which really wasn’t much except that Laura or Melanie might show up once in a while. I don’t know why I was looking at the books on the shelves (a rarity for me at the time), but I ran across an old book: Norse mythology, legends of giants and elves, trolls, wizards. The tales, poetry and the like were all familiar to me familiar to me. I had heard many of the stories, and nasty giants, ogres, and elves were all a part of growing up in that time and place which almost seems like a foreign country now. Growing up in a German-Polish-American farming community which had barely crept into the 20th century in the early 1960’s, one was barely out of rural Germany and the stories were common. Most kids (except for the ones just moving from the Preface v Figure 1. Frontispiece of the old book (a) city or just visiting on summer vacation) and about half the adults of my parents’ generation accepted the reality of elves. I remember the time when old Pussig VanGunten and his wife climbed the tree in front of their place, and told the road crew that if they were going to chop down the tree, they would have to chop it down with the two 80 year olds in it. Pussig was smart enough not to tell the road crew just why the tree couldn’t be chopped down, but most of us knew who really lived in that tree. So, when I pulled the smelly old book down, it felt familiar. I creaked open the cover and read the quote by some guy named Thomas Carlyle. “I think Scandinavian Paganism, to us here, is more interesting than any other. It is, for one thing, the latest; it continued in those regions of Europe till the eleventh century: eight hundred years ago the Norwegians were still worshippers of Odin. It is interesting also as the creed of our fathers; the men whose blood still runs in our veins, whom doubtless we still resemble in many ways. Strange: they did believe that, while we believe so differently. We have tolerable means to do it; for there is another point of interest in these mythologies: that they have been preserved so well. “Neither is there no use in knowing something about this old Paganism of our fathers. Unconsciously, and combined with higher things, it is us yet, that old faith withal. To know it consciously brings us into closer and clearer Preface vi relations with the past,-with our own possessions in the past. For the whole past, as I keep repeating, is the possession of the present. The past had always something true, and is a precious possession. In a different time, in different place, it is always some other side of our common human nature that has been developing itself.” –Thomas Carlyle I loved that book and read it cover to cover at least four times a year for the next 3 years. My Grampa Jack was “Linzie religion” and so was I, but I belonged to the Ása-Faith as well. I later bought a second printing of the book and still enjoy it. After 30 years of Ásatrú the book has begun to even take on the smell of that original I once held in my hands. I love the fact that I am a 3rd generation German-American. I now live in the southwest in a predominantly hispanic community and enjoy enchiladas y tamales as much as I do Sauerkraut mit Schinken und Äpfeln, but I never mistake where I came from. I read a lot more now than I used to and move a little slower than when I was still chasing Laura (and I do mean chasing—she was fast). I have a family of my own and I am 30+ years and 2000 miles away from the place of my upbringing, but I feel more a German-American now than I did growing up. I wrote this book as an expression of thanks, I suppose. This book came together over a period of 10 years. I started in 1990 (the year that our town’s electricity went out on Superbowl Sunday), and I lost the first thirty or so pages to an old, borrowed Apple IIe. Fortunately, I still had the original handwritten copy. Since that time, I’ve gone through 3 computers, Windows3.1, Windows95, Windows98, and now Linux/ FreeBSD; countless rewrites, and have lost half my hair, grown long in the tooth, became a Grampa, and got remarried only to have two more sons (one of whom is “Jack” born 99 years and 9 days after his namesake and founder of the ‘Linzie-religion’). A lot has happened in those 10 years. The book actually started out as a 5-page essay but quickly took on a life of its own sprawling out well beyond a ream of paper. The topics wander mainly because I like it that way. It starts with the individual who slowly discovers his relationship to the world. It starts at the center of the universe, i.e. me–(yes, I’m slightly narcissistic), and then looks out, then up, then down, and then further out. It is not an instruction manual, but rather a record of learning. I’ve put in beaucoup quotes and named the authors and their books as well. There are plenty of personal observations in here (actually, the bulk of what’s here is personal observations–I just ‘scotch-taped’ the personal observations together with quotes). I’m well aware that authors like to argue. One writes about a new theory–the Preface vii next knocks it.

Often Harold was a dinner guest at our house and as usual after our meal “the boys” would discuss magic and collecting. Harold’s plan for his books and ephemera was to donate it all to his alma mater, Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. As we all know that’s what happened to his collection. Ed on the other hand disagreed with Harold’s plan and said that when the time came for him to dissolve his library he wanted everything to be sold; so that other collectors could enjoy what he had amassed.

    상징과모래놀이치료, 제3권 제2호 Symbols and Sandplay Therapy 2012, 12, Vol. 3, No. 2, 67-82. The Well Kyung-nam Kim* <Abstract> The well is meaningful to many cultures in that it is a specific place where we obtain drinking water, a type of energy that enables the growth of all living things on Earth. In this study I discuss the symbolism of the well, especially as it relates to fertility and birth, its role as a mediator between consciousness and the unconscious, and its power of healing and regeneration. In particular, I explore the appearance of the well in dreams and cases from sandplay therapy in order to understand the Jungian process of individuation. Keywords : Well, Symbol, Mediator, Sandplay Therapy * Corresponding Author: Kyung-nam Kim, Sandplay therapist & Psychotherapist, Namseoul University Child & Family Counseling Center. ([email protected]) - 67 - Symbols and Sandplay Therapy, Vol.3 No.2. Ⅰ. Introduction The water well has a special meaning in many cultures as it provides human beings with drinking water, which is essential for maintaining life. Wells have been dug since the Neolithic Era (approx. 10,000 - 4,500/2000 BC), when the first permanent human settlements were established in the Near East. In Korea wells were first mentioned in historical literature from the Proto-Three Kingdoms Period (108 BC - 300s AD); however, archaeologists have dated the first wells to the Mumun pottery period (1500 - 300 BC), sometimes labeled the “Korean Bronze Age” (Kwon, 2005), when complex societies originally developed on the Korean peninsula. Thus the well has been integral to the rise of urban populations in human history.

    King of the Paranormal CNN's Larry King Live has a long history of outrageous promotion of UFOs, psychics, and spiritualists. CHRIS MOONEY roadcast on CNN, the July 1, 2003, installment of Larry King Live was a sight to behold. The program, Bin Kings words, explored "the incredible events of fifty-six years ago at Roswell, New Mexico." What most likely crashed at Roswell in 1947 was a government spy bal- loon, but the panel of guests assembled on King's show pre- ferred a more sensational version of events. Jesse Marcel, Jr., son of a Roswell intelligence officer, claimed that just after the crash, his father showed him bits of debris that "came from another civilization" (Marcel 2003). Glenn Dennis, who worked at a Roswell funeral home at the time, said a military officer called him to ask about the availability of small caskets (i.e., for dead aliens).

  • Easter Is Unbiblical
    Preface Easter is UnBiblical. I would like to preface the following study by say- ing, I'm absolutely convinced of the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. I'm convinced that He bodily rose from the dead, and was not found in corruption. I affirm, with all conviction and prompting from the Holy Spirit, that we must reverence and uphold the truth of the res- urrection. This study is not about proving or disproving the resurrec- tion—it's about discovering the truth of a holiday that we have been de- ceived into believing is the "actual day" our Lord Jesus rose from the dead. We have been told, and believed for hundreds of years, that "Easter" is a holiday celebrating the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. Is it wrong to celebrate the resurrection, and call it Easter, during this time? Yes. Is it good to celebrate the resurrection? Yes. Old Testament In the Old Testament passages, looking forward to the resurrection, and its teachings are found in Job 19:26; Ps. 16:10, 49:15; Isa. 26:19; Dan. 12:2,13; Hos. 13:14; Ezek. 37:1-10; typified in Isaac Gen. 22:13 with Heb. 11:19; in Jonah 2:10 with Matt. 12:40. The resurrection of Christ is an established fact in the Old Testament which had its fulfillment in the New Testament. New Testament Looking at the resurrection fulfilled in Christ, here are some of the many scriptures: Matt. 22:29-32, 20:19; Mark 9:9, 16:19; Luke 14:14, 24:45,46; John 5:28,29, 11:44, 2:19-22, 20:20; Acts 10:40, 13:33; Rom.
