New Survive The Jive video: Lord of this World and his Pagan Temple at Uppsala

Uppsalla was perhaps the most important site for the Norse pagans. They used to hold an asembly called the Thing of all Swedes and a sacrifice called Dísablót in honour of the disir.

The 12th century Danish chronicler Saxo Grammaticus thought that Odin himself had lived here, but the site was more widely associated with Ingvi Frey, who was known as the Lord of the Swedes. Christian accounts of Ingvi Frey sometimes call him the king of Turkey or a son of Odin, but he was in fact a far older deity and one of the most important. The Icelandic chief and author of the Eddas, Snorri Sturlusson wrote that Ingvi-Frey had lived at Uppsalla.

He was associated with sacral kingship and divine blood, he founded the Yngling dynasty.

The 11th century German chronicler, Adam of Bremen also wrote of the importance of Uppsalla to the pagans. He said that the temple there was covered in gold and that it contained statues of Odin, Thor and Ingvi-Frey.

>It has been suggested by the archaeologist Britt Solli (“Seid” – 2000) that the hanging of nine men at Uppsala may have been mock sacrifices that represented the nine days of hanging by Odin during his initiation, when he in fact descended to the roots of the world tree and grasped the runes that had been carved there by the norns. It has also been pointed out by Folke Ström that the sacrifice in the well by drowning was a typical and age-old sacrifice to the Goddess who resided in the bogs and water-sources. I wonder if this could not also have been part of an initiation rather than a sacrifice. In Snorri`s Gylfaginning, a description is given of the Well of Urdr where he explains that those who submerge themselves in the water of the norns will come out of the water shining, bright and transparent like the inner membrane of an egg. This spells spiritual transformation in my mind.

Is it possible that the human sacrifices never happened, and were instead an initiation ritual?

It'd be very funny (in both senses) if instead it was only the christians who sacrificed people at the stake, in the Dark Ages.

An Eye For Odin - Uploaded yesterday

The Anglo-Saxon Sutton Hoo helmet is a religious artefact dedicated to Woden the one eyed god of war. Recent research indicates that numerous other archeaological artefacts also provide evidence that one eye on various figures has been deliberately removed as part of a Woden ritual.
