[What follows is a guest-piece by our associate, Clécio Pereira Juventino. We have been significantly intrigued by this notion of a 'Hellenic Astrology' for some time - motivated in no small part by our own ongoing observations of the strong concordancies of Hellenic star-lore with its Vaidika / Jyotisha cousin, and therefore pointing toward an … Continue reading The Hellenistic Astrology Approach

As we have said - we intend to present a series of bespoke liturgies for Saturn with a view to rendering justly more prominent within the minds of men His Glory.

On Mythic Truth
There has recently been something of a furore in parts of the Germanic revivalist sphere over matters of what we might term 'scriptural literalism' and 'mythic truth'. We don't intend to get into the details as to what caused it - only to reproduce (with some slight editing) an endeavour at an explication as to … Continue reading On Mythic Truth

On Indo-European Solar Warfare – The Sura Army of the Sun
Earlier this week we marked the Solstice - Summer, if you're here in the Southern Hemisphere, Winter if you're in the Northern. It therefore seemed an apt occasion to post this exquisite art - illustrating the Army of the Sun God setting a host of demons to flight. Now, the nature of this conflict is … Continue reading On Indo-European Solar Warfare – The Sura Army of the Sun
The God-Emperor Dyaus Pitar
Dyaus Pitar ( द्यौष्पितृ ) / Dyews Phter ( *Dyḗws ph₂tḗr ) And yes, I am absolutely serious about this. Now, what is remarkable about this AI-generated image [not my handiwork] is … just how overt the immediate resonancies are with an array of directly scripturally attested qualities for the Indo-European deific in question. Consider, … Continue reading The God-Emperor Dyaus Pitar
Prayer As Petitioning – A Lesson In Piety From ‘The GodsFather’
The conception many people have of 'Prayer' is that it constitutes of 'asking' - often for things that might be thought of as 'for personal gain', or for the assistance of others. Now, as we've recently discussed, there's quite a bit more to prayer than that, and effectively the broad meaning to the concept is … Continue reading Prayer As Petitioning – A Lesson In Piety From ‘The GodsFather’
Prayer – An Engagement With The Divine
Prayer has to be simultaneously both one of the single most important and yet single most misapprehended elements to our faith(s). We are genuinely surprised at how frequently we seem to come across a vocal belief that there's something somehow inherently 'wrong' or 'alien' to prayer in an Indo-European (and usually rather specifically, a Germanic) … Continue reading Prayer – An Engagement With The Divine
On Whether Rishi Sunak As UK Prime Minister Is A “Win”
Right, so now that we've had approx. 48 hours to 'get used to the idea' … there's been a bit of commentary around the place on the 'meaning', if you like, of Rishi Sunak moving into No. 10 Downing Street. Specifically, whether it's something that ought be 'welcomed' or effectively 'ignored' by Hindus - and … Continue reading On Whether Rishi Sunak As UK Prime Minister Is A “Win”
On Mantra – And Why You Can’t Simply Read One Out Of A Book
Wrote this a few months back, in reaction to some annoyance out there in the wilds of twitter about not being able to just … pick up and start practicing any Mantra one likes, just because one wishes to. "we had recently had an associate write in with a similar question of the "why can't … Continue reading On Mantra – And Why You Can’t Simply Read One Out Of A Book
