Frequently Asked Questions

Where are you located?

We are located in Durham, NC.

Are you Heathen, Asatru, Odinist, or Wiccan?

Our religion is our own. We base our practice on Continental Germanic paganism and use some Old High German names in reference to our gods and practices. While we do not strictly follow Old English or Old Norse beliefs, prospective learners or interested parties in those cultural practices are welcome. Our religion comes from reconstructing sources from the pan-Germanic world but we seek to build something beyond them.

Are you folkish?

We are assuredly not folkish, racist, or nationalistic. We do not accept any discrimination on the basis of sex, gender, culture, language, or skin color. Our group is welcome to members of the LGBTQIA+ community, accessible to those with disabilities, and intolerant to white supremacists.

While our religion is based on the practice of the Germanic tribes, you do not need to be Germanic or German-speaking to find a place in our group. We share no frith or bonds with exclusionary groups such as the AFA.

While we have no standing vote on adopting Declaration 127, we are supportive of any group that denounces bigotry in all its forms.
