Tag: Victory Blót

On April 12th, we gathered at the ancient Inglinge mound, just outside Växjö in Sweden to hold our Victory Blót. When we arrived, a grey blanket of clouds lay over the site and a chilly wind swept through the air, as if winter was reluctant to release its grip. Sól remained hidden but occasionally let her rays peek through as we prepared the blót table, raised the banner of the Nordic Asa-Community, and our flags adorned with Yggdrasil. Just as the flags were raised, ravens appeared in the sky—they circled above us like guardians, and their presence filled our hearts with warmth. One could feel that the powers approved. To see and hear the Raven God messengers at that moment created a strong sense of harmony with the sacred.

This blót was held at the Mosslelund burial ground in Värnamo, Sweden. The location was carefully chosen. We had the blót table placed within a stone circle beneath a majestic oak tree. Mosslelund burial ground lies right in the middle of town, surrounded by residential gardens. A well-trodden walking path passes straight through a large ship setting.

However, this was not the case this time, as our blót kindred leader and NBR Thommy Vähäsalo was unfortunately struck by illness. As a result, the planning fell through, and we decided instead to hold the Victory Blót separately.

Lördagen den 27e april höll Sleipner blotlag sitt Segerblot vid Slaka gravfält. Vid ankomsten var vädret grått och det små duggade lite lätt, men under förberedelserna kändes det att Sunna ville ha oss där så hon sprack igenom det gråa täcket och värmde upp hela platsen och personerna som kommit.
