Firstly hello,
Secondly I seem to have come to a crossroads on my path with Asatru/heathenry.
I hope you don't mind me using this post as a soundboard with a few questions thrown in that I would encourage anyone to answer.
As stated in early posts I have been reading about Asatru, runes, and the norse Gods etc for a number of years. Currently I am feeling rather stagnant in my all round involvement with my faith and the Gods.
I feel as though I am not practicing my faith as I should or dedicating enough time to it. I feel like I should be doing blots, using runes and studying my faith a lot more.
With blots, I am not too sure where to start and what to honour when carrying these out (any suggested reading?). also, I also need to pick up the runes more and start "living" them again as I do not feel as close to them as I did previously. In terms of study, I would like some suggestions as I seem to have read a lot of the suggested material but have never made my way all the way through the Eddas (just parts) but should I aim for going through the Eddas from start to finish?
I am hoping this is just a temporary lapse and wondered if anyone else has experienced this?
I just feel a bit lost. Maybe I could do a blot for this reason to help make me feel "connected" again and I feel I have drifted somewhat.
Sorry if I rambled on here but thought this was a good a place as any to voice what I am feeling.
The gist of this post is how I incorporate my faith more in every day life?
Thanks for reading.
