Tonight is the Feast of the Einhejar, Wotan’s Army of the Dead. Volkisch Runologist wrote a great piece on this topic that I have shared below

 

The Totenkopf is the reminder that you shall always be willing to put yourself at stake for the life of the whole community

– Himmler

In the more militant orders of Volkisch resistance and Nationalist movements, there rises a new and potent symbol – the half-faced Totenkopf style mask which is being worn. This is a ritual act, which symbolizes the wearer has become Death. It is a tribute we pay to the Totenfuhrer – Woden, whom we also call Grim!  It is the very same as the Ulfdenar who donned the wolf-skins and the Berserkers who wore the bear furs.

The symbol is an ancient one and its reemergence now represents an archetypal awakening within the minds of European Youth. Over the last few years, nationalist movements have moved away from supporting the idea of a judeo-christian Europe and are embracing the religions of our forebears – the heathen faiths of Europe. And with this a new tide of runic revival and spiritual practice. No longer is the nationalist cause a push for votes in the ballot box, but the conquest of the Aryan Soul! A greater force now drives us which cannot be found in the political world. For these actions, the UK government has cracked down hard on the dissidents who cross the line and make pushes into the mainstream (even banning and deporting the mildest of right-wingers, whilst embracing the return of openly extremist jihadist).  For folk like myself, a spiritual revival is what is needed to secure the future.

The awakening of the European Folk Soul is the most important task of our time. And I do see some evidence that this is happening with the youth. Just like the awakening of Wotan in the 1900’s – there is an awakening today. The Deaths Head face mask is one of these signs, amongst the many I see around me of this happening. The wearing of such masks is the modern practice of an ancient pagan ritual. Just as our ancestors wore the masks of animals and foliage, a shamanic act that empowered the wearer, the Death Head is linking us with the Wild Hunt – the Army of the Dead – to the Einharier – the spirits of the dead, and to the leader of Hunt, the Totenfuhrer. He is Woden whom we also call Wotan or Odin. He is Grim and he is Death.  The Death Head will always be called a ‘Neo-Nazi’ symbol by the media and our enemies – but this symbol has an ancient lineage which can be traced back from today – to 1930’s Germany – to Prussia – to the Hussars- to the Germanic Mannerbunds – to the pagan tribes – to the Totenfuhrer Woden!

When white youths sport these masks, it is NOT the same as antifa cowards who wish to hide their identities whilst they commit crime. No! They do so to embrace an Odic force. The term Odic or Odic-Force was first coined by Baron Carl von Reichenbach, and today is used by those who not only follow Odin (Odic derives from Odin) but by those who wish to become like Odin – they become Death themselves! They not only follow Odin but accept his fate and struggle as their own.

I will certainly be adopting these masks into my own ritual use and for blots etc. This I feel will continue an ancient custom and bring me closer to Woden.
