 This code, which I have lived by since the age of at least 7 has served me well and I have not included any points which I have not personally adhered to as to do otherwise would be an act of hypocrisy, an unAryan trait.

Do not hate a man because of his race, ethnicity or nationality.

Judge the value of a man solely by his actions.

Do all in your power to preserve the racial integrity of your bloodline.

It is better for one's bloodline to die out than that it should be compromised.

Fulfil all oaths to gods and men.

To break an oath is an act of the greatest dishonour but do not be bound by oaths to men who have first broken their oath to you. Even if it is to your own personal cost or disadvantage, never break an oath!

Do not dishonour your gods in word or deed.

The gods will hold you to account for any dishonourable words or deeds towards them.

Be gracious in defeat and merciful in victory.

Be prepared to offer the hand of friendship to a defeated enemy.

Be prepared to defend your honour by word or deed.

Ultimately satisfaction may be required by fighting a duel.

Defend the weak against tyranny and injustice.

Speak out and act against all wrong doing.

Honour the land and remember that you do not own it: it owns you.

Treat the earth with reverence for She is our Mother.

Do not pollute land, sea or sky.

Just as the earth is our Mother, the sky is our Father.

Respect all wildlife and vegetation.

Life forms that are different from us are still sacred and the gods will hold us to account for our misuse of animal, vegetable or mineral.

Honour our sacred sites, whether megalith, sacred oak, mound, hill, well or grove.

By doing so we maintain a connection to our ancestors and their memory.

Defend your land but do not participate in an unjust war.

Judge the merits of a conflict before risking life and limb and remember that most wars are initiated to maintain or extend the interests of an elite, not the common man. Our distant ancestors only fought if they felt that it was in their own interest to do so.

The Systematic Emasculation of Modern Aryan Man

 I have discussed this subject before in my older blogs, especially in Aryan Myth and Metahistory. Since the deactivation of that blog five years ago, I have noticed that the pace of emasculation of man, specifically Aryan man, has greatly accelerated. The feminised man and by extension, the masculinised woman is now the standard by which the liberal and 'progressive' society of today judges the two genders (yes, there are only TWO). This was not always the case. I am half way through my seventh decade on this earth and I do not recognise anymore the society into which I was born; the lunatics are truly in charge of the asylum!

I watch a little bit of television and I pay close attention to the trends of the advertising industry. Multiracial families, bearded men kisssing and cripples engaging in very physical sports are now not just common place but the norm. What is even more insidious is the pushing of gender role reversal onto society, especially onto native European males and females. The man now occupies the place of the traditional housewife, washing the dishes, wiping the kitchen floor, vacuuming the carpet, feeding the baby and baking the cakes. While this sorry example of a man goes about his domestic chores, the woman of the house (frequently a native African) comes home from a hard day's fire-fighting to a cooked meal, lovingly prepared by her husband, who is seen wearing a flowery apron.

Television police dramas now portray the woman (often a native African) in the starring role and in a more senior position than most of her fellow officers. These female role models not only engage in traditional masculine occupations but have begun to almost physically transform into men. The former fashion model of the past is no longer a slim, attractive, feminine woman with a gentle rounded face but either a muscular woman with angular facial features or an ugly, fat-arsed heifer! Some of these so-called 'models' would be better placed in an old-fashioned freak show, featuring bearded women! Ugliness is the new aesthetic, not the Nordic beauty (male and female) of the past, exemplified in classical and neo-classical sculpture. 

In short, we are witnessing the Umwertung aller Werte (transvaluation of all values), spoken of by Professor Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche in his Der Antichrist (The Antichrist), published in 1895 and a very controversial work for its time. The truth of the matter is, that nobody born in the last 30-40 years is old enough to know anything different, and the present generation of young people are almost beyond hope, so thorough has the 'educational' system's indoctrination by neo-Marxist teachers been.

The traditional family unit has been the greatest victim of this transvaluation with the constant drip, drip effect of traditional gender role reversal, the gradual societal acceptance of homosexual relationships, leading to 'same sex marriage', 'gender reassignment' and the invention of or recognition by the National Health Service of 21 so-called 'genders'. In more sane times, any man believing himself to be a woman, or a woman a man would have been committed by their physician to a psychiatric hospital for evaluation and treatment, spending time on a ward with lunatics in Napoleonic attire. As anyone with a modicum of understanding of mental illness knows, one should treat the patient by challenging his or her faulty view of themselves, not reinforcing it by agreeing with them! This is how we know that the lunatics, as I have said, are running the asylum!

Due to the emasculation of the man, he no longer feels confident in being master of his own hearth and has caved in to the idea that families should be organised by 'democratic' principles rather than the time-honoured tradition, an Indo-European tradition of the man being the head of the household and his decisions and person to be respected. Any reinforcement of the Aryan husband or father's traditional role is considered now to be an example of  'narcissistic' or 'toxic' (the latest pop psychology 'buzz' words) behaviour and the man branded a 'thought criminal' in need of 'treatment'. Instead, the man must learn to be 'in touch with his feelings' and to turn on the waterworks in public, to be 'emotionally available' (another ridiculous pop psychology expression). In short, he is to behave like a sissy. The mother's traditional role is to nurture and educate her offspring, the father's is to provide for and discipline his children. Any departure from these principles, which are to be found in all sentient animal species results in anarchy and the breakdown of good order in society. Paradoxically, the man of other races appears to be exempt from this emasculation process. It is only Aryan man that has to be psychologically castrated!

Only in the eastern and southern hemispheres has man maintained his traditional masculine position. Here in the so-called 'west' he is a broken caricature of his former self. No wonder then that the Men Going Their Own Way (MGTOW) movement is gaining strength and adherents from the thinking elements among Aryan man. The 21st century 'western' world is not a time nor a place in which to raise mentally and psychologically healthy children. The odds of doing so are stacked against you from the beginning. Only until times change or Aryans organise themselves into their own autonomous settlements can the Aryan (in body, mind and spirit) family unit flourish.

The Mixed Celtic and Germanic Tribes of Continental Europe and the British Isles-the Belgae

 Our knowledge concerning the tribes inhabiting the British Isles, most especially the island of Great Britain itself comes primarily from the writings of Greek and Roman historians, and archaeology. Population genetics is also beginning to play a part in unfolding our knowledge of Bronze and Iron Age Britain.

A simplistic understanding of the ethnicity of the tribes present in the island at the time of the Roman Conquest in the years 43-87CE is that all of the tribes were 'Celtic'-speaking 'Britons' until the beginning of the Anglo-Saxon invasions and colonisation of present-day England in 449CE. This is not only highly simplistic but false. A mix of both Celtic and Germanic peoples was already present in these islands at the time of the Roman Conquest. Migration from continental Europe was a factor for thousands of years prior to this. Some of the tribes of the Roman province of Britannia (present-day England and Wales) were not Celtic at all but Germanic or Celto-Germanic. The better known of these were the Belgae, who migrated from Gaul during the late 2nd century or early first century BCE.

The Belgae were not a single tribe but a confederation of closely related tribes resident in northern Gaul, namely the Bellovaci, Ambiani, Atrebates and Veromandui. Ironically, modern maps showing the location of Iron Age tribes in Britain locate the Belgae to the west of the Atrebates but the latter were part of the Belgae confederation. The German or Germanic roots of the Belgae are confirmed by Caesar in Book II of his Bello Gallico:

                           'When Caesar inquired of them what states were in arms, 

                            how powerful they were and what they could do, in war,

                            he received the following information:

                            that the greater part of the Belgae, were sprung from the Germans, 

                           and that having crossed the Rhine at an early period, 

                           they had settled there, on account of the fertility of the country,

                           and had driven out the Gauls who inhabited those regions;.....'

                            (Devitte translation)

Of the Belgae who migrated to Britain, we know that the Atrebates were among them, and possibly, the Ambiani (from Numismatics, the study of their coinage). In addition to the Belgae, it is now speculated that the Iceni of East Anglia also had Germanic or Celto-Germanic origins. The Cenimagni tribe, referred to by Caesar in Book V of Bello Gallico may very well have been a misspelling of ICENI and the name is suggestive of a Germanic root. The image of what appears to be Odin on Iceni coinage adds further weight to the hypothesis of Germanic origins.

The ancient city of Winchester in Hampshire was the administrative centre of the kingdom of Wessex (the West Saxons). The kings of Wessex eventually united the whole of England into one kingdom. The present King of the United Kingdom, Charles III is a descendant of Alfred the Great, the most notable of the kings of Wessex. However, Winchester's history can be traced much further back than the 9th century and the etymology of its name is derived from Wenta, a Celtic word with the meaning 'tribal town' or 'meeting place'. Subsequent to the Roman Conquest, Winchester became an important settlement for the Belgae, its name then being recorded as Wenta Belgarum, meaning 'Wenta of the Belgae'.  

What should be pointed out however, is that mixed tribes on the continent or in these islands may be mixed in terms of language, culture, belief or ancestry or any combination of these features. Thus, when discussing the possible Germanic ancestral antecedents of the Iceni, the Belgae or any other tribe, it must be borne in mind that there is no evidence that they were necessarily Germanic-speaking.

 Referring back to the continental home of the Belgae, Caeser referred to the German origins of these people but his precise words were: 'that the greater part of the Belgae, were sprung, from the Germans,....'    The emphasis here is 'the greater part'; he did not state that they were all sprung from the Germans and neither did he say that those who were of German ancestry were not also descended from any Celtic peoples as well. By the time that Caesar wrote about the Belgae, they had already been settled in Gaul for a sufficient time for any mixing of blood, language, culture and religion to occur. 

Tacitus, writing in his Germania, chapter two states:

                                  'for that the people who first crossed the Rhine, and expelled

                                   the Gauls, and are now called Tungri, were then named Germans;

                                   which appellation of a particular tribe, not of a whole people,

                                   gradually prevailed; so that the title of Germans, first assumed

                                   by the victors in order to excite terror, was afterwards adopted

                                   by the nation in general.'    

The Tungri, it should be pointed out, were part of the Belgae tribal confederation.

More or less within the same time period that Caesar was writing his Bello Gallico, the Belgae who were already established in southern Britain were still ruled by the same king who governed the Belgae in Gaul, Diviciacus of the Belgic Suessiones tribe. It should be noted that the etymology of Suessiones appears to be Gallic in origin, not Germanic. This Diviciacus should not be confused with the druid of the same name who belonged to the Gallic Aedui tribe.

There is also speculation by scholars that the Regni or Regnenses in southeast England were also part of the Belgae confederation or at the very least they were influenced by them and may have had a Belgic leadership stratum. Gunivortus Goos (Gardenstone), a Dutch researcher and a long time resident of Germany (whose books I recommend) suggests in his excellent new work, Britain and Boudicca (2025) that other tribes such as the Catuvellauni and the Trinovantes were or may have been of Belgic origin. Mr Goos provides a lot of interesting information on individual tribes in his aforesaid work with maps and coloured illustrations. 

It would also appear that the Belgae were not restricted to just Gaul and modern-day England but were also present in Iron Age Ireland too. According to Professor Thomas Francis O'Rahilly (1882-1953), some of the Belgae settled in south-west Ireland in the fifth century BCE, becoming the Iverni (Erainn). He also was of the opinion that the memory of the Belgic settlers was preserved in Irish mythology in the name and people of the Fir Bolg. This latter theory is no longer acceptable to 'mainstream' historians (nothing to do with Irish republicanism then?).

What we do know from this patchwork of Celtic and Celto-Germanic tribes present in Iron Age England is that the accepted paradigm of a totally 'Celtic' Britain prior to the Anglo-Saxon colonisations from 449CE onwards is now no longer tenable! 

                           

The Sigtuna Pendant

 The Sigtuna pendant, excavated in the 1960s shows artistic similarities to the Hiddensee pendant, namely: the raven motif and the detailed filigree workmanship. This has led to some suggestions that it is the work of the same craftsman. Like the Hiddensee hoard, the piece dates to the late 10th century.

Sightuna at that time was a newly founded royal and commercial centre, and an early focal point for the establishment of Christianity in mediaeval Sweden. It is speculated that the town was founded as replacement for Birka, which became abandoned in the 960s. The town was named after Fornsigtuna (modern-day Signhildsberg), an old royal estate, 2.5 miles to the west of Sigtuna. According to chapter 5 of the Ynglinga Saga, which is the initial part of Snorri Sturluson's Heimskringla, the euhemerised Odin 

                     'took up his residence at the Maelare lake, at the place now called Old Sigtun.

                     There he erected a large temple, where there were sacrifices according to the

                     customs of the Asaland people. He appropriated to himself  the whole of that

                     district, and called it Sigtun. To the temple priests he gave also domains. 

                     Njord dwelt in Noatun, Frey in Upsal, Heimdal in the Himinbergs, Thor

                     in Thrudvang, Balder in Breidablik; to all of them he gave good estates.'

There are various theories regarding the etymology of the name, Sigtuna. The primary ones are as follows:

a) 'place' (tun) of a 'swamp' (sig).

b) 'place' (tun) of 'victory' (sig).

It should be remembered that 'sig' forms the first element in some of the bynames of Odin:

a) Sigdir (victory bringer).

b) Sigfodr (father of victory).

c) Siggautr (victory Gautr).

d) Sigrhofundr (victory author).

e) Sigmundr (victory protection).

f) Sigrunnr (victory tree).

g) Sigtyggr (victory true).

h) Sigtyr (god of victory).

i) Sigthror (successful in victory)

While both explanations are suitable, I personally favour the latter. The Ynglinga Saga  draws a clear connection between Odin and the old settlement of Sigtuna. From the 10th century, the new Sigtuna took over the functions as well as the name from the old settlement, while the former Sigtuna became known as Old Sigtuna or Fornsigtuna. 

Returning to the symbolism of the pendant, it is clear to me that the bird head represented on the bottom of it is a raven in abstract form, a heathen symbol with close connections to the god, Odin. It is stylised to form almost a hammer shape, and for this reason many modern reproductions are referred to as the Sigtuna 'hammer'. The original pendant was crafted in gold and an image of it is shown below.

Britannia, Aryan Tutelary Goddess of the British Isles

 The following is the resposting of an old article originally published on my now defunct Celto-Germanic Culture, Myth and History blog which I have edited and tidied up. My reason for doing so lies in the recent awakening of the Germanic and Celtic peoples of the British Isles, most especially here in England where thousands of England flags now fly from lamp posts on most housing estates.

As a child, I was often fascinated by the imagery on old English coins and in particular the figure of Britannia on pennies, ha'pennies and farthings. This imagery continued with decimalisation in the early 1970s.

It is commonly believed that the concept of Britannia as a tutelary Goddess began with the Roman invasion but this is not the case. Although she is equated with the Roman Goddess Minerva, Her history and origins precede the Romans.

Professor L. Austine Waddell in his remarkable and fascinating The Phoenician Origins of Britons, Scots and Anglo-Saxons Discovered by Phoenician and Sumerian Inscriptions in Britain by Pre-Roman Briton Coins (1924) makes it very clear that She originated with the earliest Aryan invaders of the British Isles. In Professor Waddell's works he establishes that the Phoenicians, like the Sumerians, and the founders of Egyptian civilisation, were originally Aryans. They did of course rule over other peoples, namely Semites who later became associated with the term Phoenician but originally they or their leaders were Aryan.

Professor Waddell was also one of the first scholars to recognise the Hittites to be Aryan civilisation. This is today now commonly accepted but this was not the case in the 1920s. Modern science is beginning to validate this great man's theories and his books, over recent years, have reached a new generation of racially aware Indo-Europeans.

Professor Waddell identifies ancient Phoenician coins from Lycaonia in the 3rd century CE  that also bear the image of this deity, but holding a cornucopia rather than a trident. Some of the coins also feature a shield with an equilateral Sun Cross, marking Her to be a solar deity.

"These coins, with others of the same type elsewhere, are of immense historical importance for recovering the lost history of the Britons in Britain and in their earlier homeland, as they now disclose the hitherto unknown origin of the modern British marine tutelary 'Britannia', and prove her to be of Hitto-Phoenician origin."(Waddell) 

Professor Waddell draws a link between the ancient ruling Aryan clan, the Barats and the name of Britain and hence of this Goddess. Studies of Her portrait show Her to be both graceful and beautiful, a notable Aryan physical aesthetic.

"Usually the head only of this goddess is figured on Phoenician coins, and it is a fine Aryan and non-Semitic type; see for example the Phoenician `Barat` coin from Carthage, and Phoenician coins generally. In these coins of Lycaonia the general resemblance to Britannia will be noticed-Britannia hitherto being supposed to have been first invented by the early Romans in Britain in the 2nd century A.D. in practically the identical  form still surviving on our modern British penny." (Waddell)           

Britannia, or more correctly in this context, Barat is featured on the Lycaonian coins as seated on a chair of a ship amidst the waves. In some coins She holds a cornucopia and in others possibly a sceptre or a cross. In Her other hand She holds the tiller of a rudder. The shield beside Her chair features the Sun Cross, likened to a St. George Cross within a Sun Disc. On modern pre- and post-decimal coins this cross is now the eight spoked Union Flag. The eight spokes like the four are significant and relate to cardinal and ordinal directions and the wheel of the year. Some shields portray instead the rayed sun so the solar implications of Her cult are obvious.

          "Her proper name is now disclosed by the Vedic hymns of the Eastern branch of the Aryan Barats to have been Barati, meaning'                          'Belonging to the Barats.' She is also called therein 'Brihad-the Divine' (Brihad- diva)..." (Waddell)

Britannia's association with the trident draws a link with the Roman Neptune or the Greek Poseidon, who many will know was the founder and tutelary deity of Atlantis.

          "In these Vedic hymns all the attributes of Britannia are accounted for; her tutelarship of the waters and of  hips, her lighthouse on the                  sea, her Neptune trident (as well as the origin of Neptune himself and his name), her helmet and shield, her Cross on the shield as well                as the cornucopia, which she sometimes bears upon the Phoenician and Greco-Roman coins, taking the place of the corn-stalk on the                 Briton coins." (Waddell)  

Rig Veda 2.35  is devoted to the 'Son of Waters', whom the Indo-Aryans called Napat. Napat may be the origin of Neptune.

           "The Son of Waters, gathering strength in waters, shines for his worshipper to give him treasures."(Rig Veda 2.35.8)                   

Often deities who were originally female were subsequently replaced by male ones. An obvious example from Germanic mythology is the Nerthus referred to in Tacitus' Germania, worshipped by the Angles and six other tribes in northern Germania. Later Njord became prominent amongst the Scandinavian peoples and the root of Njord is to be found in Nerthus. Some speculate that they simply formed a divine pair as did their offspring Freyr and Freyja.                         

"In the Vedic hymns she is called 'The Great Mother' (Mahi) and 'Holy Lady of the Waters' and is hailed as 'First-made mother' in a hymn to her son 'Napat the son of the waters' who has a  horse (thus disclosing the remote Aryan origin of the name and personality of the old Sea-god, Neptune, and his horses, and accounting for Neptune's trident in her hands). She is a 'Fire-Priestess' and `shows the light' (thus accounting for the Lighthouse on the older British coins with Britannia). She is personified Fire and sits upon the sacred Fire (thus accounting for the St. George's Cross which, we shall find later, symbolises Fire of the Sun). She is associated with the twin horsemen of the Sun (Aswin or Dioscorides), represented on the British coins, and coins of Syracuse (an ancient Phoenician colony) etc." (Waddell)

The concept of fire on or in water reminds me of Odin's eye (the sun) being hidden in the waters of Mimir's well. Professor Waddell also finds a connection between Barati and Bairthy, the Egyptian Goddess of the Water. Their functions are identical.

                          "Thus the tutelary Bairthy of the Ancient Egyptians and Assyrio-Babylonians appears to have been designated by them as 'The                               Warrior Water-goddess of the Sailor Phoenicians of the Land  of the Fire-drill cult.'" (Waddell)

A link may also be drawn between Neptune and the Celtic sea-God Manannan mac Lir who also was associated with horses, an Aryan totemic symbol. He is the tutelary deity of the Isle of Man, whose flag consists of a three-legged triskelion, a clear solar symbol.

                           "The Poseidon of the Tuatha De Danann Pantheon was called Lir, but we hear little of him in  comparison with his famous son,                             Manannan, the greatest and most popular of his many children." (The Mythology of the British Islands, Charles Squire) 

Barati was also the tutelary Goddess of Crete, Brihad-the-Divine, the divine daughter of Phoinix, the King of Phoenicia, thus demonstrating the Aryan origin of Cretan civilisation via the Aryo-Phoenicians. There may also be an association with the Irish Goddess Brigid, the daughter of The Dagda of the Tuatha De Danann. She also was a solar deity as evidenced by the rather interesting Swastika-like Solar Cross associated with Her.
