and prey tell, what is the "contrived" version of Odinism?
i live my life as Asatruar.
i follow Odin's wishes for his followers.
i greet the Sun on Sunday, i greet the Moon on Moonday, i greet Tyr on Tyr's day, Odin on Woden's day, Thor on Thor's day, Freya, frey and Frigga on Friday because no one has mentioned exactly who it belongs to.
i greet Loki on Saturday because it seems important.
no one may actually see me do this.
i'm not sure my husband knows i do it.
i believe the gods exist in the ways that ALL gods exist.
they are and they arn't real, the things they did did and didn't happen, the stories are real and fake.
but i believe in them and i talk with them.
i am memorizing the Runes, i trace Elhaz, the elk over my baby's heart every day, i trace Thurisaz over my own every day.
we brew our own mead, we celebrate what we want and feel the need to celebrate.
we don't go around playing viking and lying to ourselves just to feel differant if that's what you are asking.
