The Asatru Calendar 2026 is more than just a calendar — it’s a gateway to a rich tradition of faith and culture. Let each page be a reminder of our ancestors and their connection to nature and the divine. Perfect as a gift or for personal use, this calendar is a must-have for anyone wishing to relive and honor the Old Norse legacy.

Thank you to everyone who came to the Summer Blót 2025! We would like to extend a warm thank you to all 236 of you who came and made this year’s Summer Blót a fantastic weekend filled with fellowship, fun, and laughter. Your presence and joy awakened ancient powers and filled the site with strength and faith.

On June 28th, 2025, a wedding ceremony for Harry Waltersson and Annalisa Biagini Waltersson was held in Hörvik, Sweden. The ceremony was conducted by Gyðja Lena Salomonsson, assisted by Kicki Bogren, under the auspices of the Nordic Asa-Community. Over 60 guests gathered in a beautiful ceremonial circle to witness this solemn moment, marked by love, tradition, spiritual presence, and deep reverence.

We at the Nordic Asa-Community are now very pleased to announce that a building permit has been granted for a dedicated burial site for heathens in Molkom, Sweden. This is a historic decision – the first of its kind in Sweden in modern times – and the result of several years of determined work from our community.

In Sweden today, many people associate “midsummer” with the bright June evening when we dance around the pole, eat herring and celebrate summer. It's a fine and living tradition - but it's not the same as the old Nordic Midsummer. In the pre-Christian calendar, the midpoints of the year were not at the solstices, but at the midpoints of the halves. And that's where the difference starts.

Just a couple of weeks before Yule 2024, I received a request from NBR Thommy Vähäsalo asking if I would be willing to officiate a wedding in Helsingborg in Sweden at the end of May the following year. I didn’t need any time to consider—it was an immediate yes. I find it magical to lead ceremonies for those who wish to solemnize their vows before the gods and goddesses of Ásatrú.

On Saturday, June 14th, the blót kindred Idavallen held its annual summer gathering. We all met at the home of Ida and NBR Thommy Vähäsalo to carry out the Idavallen Championships, half-year meeting, and Summer Solstice Rite.

We are happy to announce that the popular booklet The 147 Deities of Ásatrú is back in stock.

We warmly congratulate the new board of Forn Siðr – Asa- og Vanetrosamfundet in Denmark, and we wish you every success in your work to strengthen and develop the Asatru in Denmark.
