We managed to get a bunch of Trothers to talk about the Havamal.
We chatted about our favorite stanzas and our tale on their meaning. We traded stories about the advice given from one of most sacred of texts. We talked about the ethics of drinking, (and I forget about that Heron of Mindlessness). Much fun and silliness ensued.
The Next Skype Moot will be on January 14, 2010 at 9 PM EST. Topic: “Sacrifice”.

Heilsa All!
We managed to stuff almost 10 people into a single audio chat room to talk about the Ancestors.
We shared a number of personal, historical and lore based anecdotes. The Troth members stood up and answered the Big Questions about the Ancestors. Such what to do about that unfortunate family member in your history that you would like to forget and how to really connect with those less known folks in your family.
Patty Lafayllve and myself are hoping that this becomes a regular monthly staple in your Heathen audio diet.

Idunna is The Troth’s patron goddess, and here our current Steerswoman talks about what that means to our organization, and why we honor Idunna at our annual gathering, Trothmoot.
The Troth publishes a quarterly magazine, called Idunna. “At the Tiller” is the article written each quarter by The Troth’s current Steersperson. This podcast features our Steerswoman, Patricia Lafayllve, reading Idunna #77’s “At the Tiller.” She hopes to continue this practice, and plans to podcast every “At the Tiller” she writes. Patricia was elected to her position by the membership in Spring 2008, and took her oath of office at Trothmoot 2008 in June.
