As some you know I post my ideas on many of the Asatru holidays that are a part of many heathen calendars. I always have people complain about one thing or another, hear and there, but for the most part for every one person that complains I get a 25 compliments so I never paid it much mind and just try to be understanding of everyone's opinions and right to speak there mind.

That being said my Midsummer post really pissed one guy off (straw that broke the camels back I guess), and he sent me one hell of an email. off of the boards. Again just one guy and just one email, but in spirit of Grith, witch is one of the reasons that I post these anyways, I am posting my official Disclaimer.

My personal Disclaimer on my monthly Holiday postings.

I try to be as accurate as I can for the hole of everyone that reads these but be general enough that everyone has an understanding of the message that I am trying to convey. I try to include as many viewpoints on a holiday posting as possible without letting them get to long winded or overly Academic (believe it or not, most people think academic writing is boring to read). I am not a historian or an archeologist. I am not even a very good writer for that matter.

Everyone that reads these little posts of mine should always remember that they are just very general posts, with very generalized information and "suggestions" from my point of view and should only be taken that way. They are meant as a reminder of the holidays and suggestions for folks that may be new to the old ways or just interested in hearing other peoples ideas for the day. They are a means for me to physically and mentally celebrate and remember the days, even if my day gets to busy to do anything else during the day. They are not automated and never will be. Every year I try to make them a little bit better and maybe a little bit more accurate, without making them very much longer. Sometimes they are filled with misspelling (I am dyslexic after all), and sometime I add the wrong info because I want write each one myself as a part of my personal ritual. If you already do something for these days that has become your tradition then you probable already have the right Idea and should keep doing what you are doing.

My personal opinion is that the Gods, Goddesses, Land Vetor and Ancestors all know what year it is. They all know what our day to day lives are like and the differences that we live with throughout our years hear in Midgard. They all know the massive history that we share and the hurdles involved in applying them back into our lives. I do not think that they are so worried about the little details that we tend to differ on, and sometimes bicker about (not that I don't want to know the differences, I am just saying).

The importance of all of these days is our ability to remember and celebrate the old ways, the ancestors, our Traditions, and the Gods and Goddesses as they are affected and important to each of us. Asatru is individual for every heathen and the ways, or times, that we celebrate our Heathenry should be just as individual as each of us.

That is why I post these.

Hail to us, and all of our Traditions, and all of our History. Let us Keep them Alive.
