  • Skáldskapr: Understanding the causation of Division.
    In this episode I’d like to speak to the ways that many among us have sought to keep the people separated, either inadvertently, or on purpose, the end goal is the same. Once a “seed of thought” is planted for division, the participants will exaggerate it whether real or not. I’d like to discuss the differences between the natural division of people and beliefs by both: geographic separation, and population control division. This practice really came into usage many generations before the changeover of the geological epoch, thereby forcing a “we versus them” type of mentality, particularly regarding spirituality. The unfortunate reality is that society seems to find more ways to separate peoples, and in many cases, “pit” them against each other. We need to consider all of these methods of division, and set them aside to achieve harmony and tranquility.

  • Skáldskapr: How does religion affect psychology?
    Today I’d like to discuss how religion affects our basic psychology, as many of you have asked me how that works. This is a great question, and I think it deserves a thorough discussion, because I feel that most people don’t understand even by thinking that “my spirituality has nothing to do with me as a person”, does it make it right, and I strongly disagree with the premise. This is especially true when an individual declares a lack of faith in anything spiritually related at all. I propose that our entire psychological foundation is built upon values established by monotheistic practices which has mutated from a dependence on honor and truth, to the population control paradigm it has become. The most basic of constructs within our mind is based on values of “good” or “bad” that was instituted and “programmed” into our psyche from before our physical birth, most often inadvertently by the previous generations (no offense to the moms and dads here). These core understandings establishes the cornerstones to what we will interpret any information received. This then becomes our knowledge, and ultimately our wisdom. However, I want to be sure I separate the theology from the practice, as monotheistic theology makes complete sense, however, the horrible methods of conversion and implementation of the monotheistic practices across the globe needs to be identified as the psychological “brain washing” and domineering population control it is.

  • Skáldskapr: Living our life avoiding the Fates.
    In this episode we will discuss the roles that these spiritual entities play in our lives. Helping us all to understand the difference between accepting life’s consequences, and making life’s choices. When discussing “the fates” we need to have a clear understanding of the roles they play within the average person’s life. How to avoid them, but firstly, we need to understand where they came from. While the word has taken on many different meanings over the millennia, the underlying concept of fate was that it was a state on the other side of the coin from destiny. Destiny represents a directed journey that the individual accomplished what they set out to do, whereas it would have indicated that we arrived at our fate if we fell short of destiny.

  • Skáldskapr: Understanding Seiðr, or Nordic magic.
    In this week’s episode I’d like to broach the subject of magic. Today I’d like to explain what magic is, and ultimately how it has been applied to many individual’s everyday life. Many people immediately rush in with their claims of evil practices, or darker magic, without an indication as to what it really means.

  • Skáldskapr: The spiritual mood of the world today.
    In todays episode, I’d like to discuss what I am seeing and feeling spreading throughout the world right now. I am getting the feeling as if the many throughout are beginning to see monotheism for what it really is, and now search for a deeper spiritual understanding. I have also involved myself in meditation and spiritual trances in an effort to better understand the spiritual mood of the world right now, and I get a definite feeling that there are more people seeking answers that the monotheistic practices cannot provide. The spirits of our ancestors call to me, they speak of being sought, drawn in by the vacuum created by those who seek more.

  • Skáldskapr: Let’s have a conversation about the spiritual world.
    In this episode I’d like to discuss the underpinnings of my doctoral thesis that I am to prove, the spiritual influence on our psychology. In the discussion of this theory there are tons of experiences that I have encountered, and thousands more from subjects I’ve interviewed throughout the years of spiritual counseling I’ve completed.

  • Skáldskapr: Understanding Fate and Destiny.
    In this episode I’d like to organize our thoughts around the this physical life time by discussing the inclusion of the effects of what is referred to as “the fates” as well as the underlying principle of “destiny”. I’ll apply some Norse beliefs around these concepts based on both: the sagas, and the Germanic-Dane legends that have been ingrained in my mind since childhood. While my personal ancestry is of Germanic Dane descent, I find that the legends of the Landvætti stem from the Germanic tribes migrating north with their beliefs in tow. However, my ancestry are, by no means, the only culture who discovered the spiritual world that surrounded them. In this consideration, we see that the indigenouspeoples of the eastern asian cultures included the spirits, and would ultimately deliver them to North America across the Beringia Land Bridge during the dawn of man. We also find the same ideas surfacing in Western and Southern Africa, ultimately migrating to Haiti, arriving in the southern North American continue as Voudou. In seriously considering the validity of the spiritual world, the first question we need to ask is “Why would there have been so many cultures throughout the history of human evolution who legitimized their existence, independently?” This is an interesting phenomenon, however, let’s talk a little about the how I (based on my Norse beliefs) see the spiritual world is kept in balance by the fates, and one’s personal destiny.

  • Skáldskapr: Understanding the spiritual world.
    This episode will introduce you to my studied perspective about the sensory input channels we all have inside. We are all very familiar with the most notable five, those would be vision, hearing, tasting, smelling, and feeling. Most are not familiar with the sixth sense, other than the Hollywood movie of the same name. This sixth sense was originally identified within the oral traditions that described the mystical forces throughout Midgard, and these stories were relayed to me by my great grandmother many years ago. The more I researched it, the more I discovered it’s legitimacy.

  • Skáldskapr: Necessity of population control
    This episode speaks to the inevitability of humans entering into a societal collapse with some form of control. Therefore, the perception of the necessity to maintain a longer-term control over a population became clear to some. The understanding that humans did not seem to operate on an honor based system anymore necessitated the deployment of larger scale controls.

  • Skáldskapr: Divine intervention
    This episode speaks to the importance, and the impact that divine intervention will have within our existence here on Midgard. We will also understand how us humankind receive communications from the gods, and the spirits around us. The underlying understanding is that humans are free to do what they thought necessary from birth to grave, the true definition of “free will”. In the earlier days of human evolution, we know from historical facts that the basic ideas like honor and integrity held a very high esteem in the population of the time, and throughout the generations between then and now, we have all witnessed the corruption of this basic principle in a futile attempt at controlling the masses. However, I believe that there are some other forces at play that we (as humans) may be unaware of. Today I’d like to provide an insight to the beliefs I have arrived at after decades of studying the multiple belief systems throughout the world.
