Asatruar and Heathen Worldwide Map
Written by Mark Stinson

EMAIL to be Added to the Asatruar and Heathen Worldwide Map

The purpose of this map is to help Asatruars and Heathens to find other Asatruars and Heathens in their area, for the purposes of communicating, gathering, and kindred-formation. It should also be useful for Asatruars and Heathens that are moving or traveling into an area. THE MAP IS 2 PAGES NOW, so to see every entry you must scroll all the way down and also look at PAGE 2.

Over 225 individual heathens and kindreds have placed themselves on the Map of Asatruars and Heathens worldwide, and we're been sent stories already of people finding other Heathens in their area they didn't know about before. This note is to let you know about some changes we've had to make.

When we started the Asatruars and Heathens Worldwide Map, you were able to add yourself to the map...but people were accidentally messing up the map while trying to add themselves. It was happening almost every day. To keep this from happening we've changed how you add yourself to the map.

TO BE ADDED TO THE MAP, SIMPLY EMAIL ME at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it with (1) your name or your kindred's name, (2) your city, state, and country, and (3) some form of contact information. I will then add you to the map.

To view the map or to help us spread the word about it, here are some short links:

The Importance of Oaths
Written by Swain Wodening   
Wednesday, 03 February 2010
Fifteen hundred years ago, tribes were made up of families and clans. They were a close knit community of people related by ancestry and blood, and if not that, by marriage. Today’s Heathen finds themselves in a different situation. While entire nuclear families being Heathen is becoming more common, most cannot even claim that they have seventh cousins as fellow Heathens. So where does this leave us in the formation of modern day tribes? It leaves us where some ancient Heathens found themselves after losing family to war, famine, or disease. In their day, one could join an artificial family either a dryht (OE) or drött (ON), a warband, or gild (guild). And what bound these groups? Oaths are what bound them together.

Heathen Open Halls Project
Written by Cat Heath   
Sunday, 17 January 2010
**What is the Open Halls Project?**

Military life is not easy, it’s full of challenges for service members and families alike. Very often, duty takes military Heathens away from community and with constant moves, it can be hard to find a Heathen community again.
Hence the reason for the Open Halls Project .

The Open Halls project is an independent grassroots project with the sole purpose of helping military Heathens to find community wherever they are posted.

To make this work, our needs are twofold:
• Firstly we need military Heathens (service members, family members, DoD employees) to register with us via email at the address below (please state that you're military). Only a name, email and rough location. Please keep OPSEC in mind when posting on this group!

• Secondly we need Heathens, be they lone Heathens or Kindreds to register as being willing to ‘open their halls’ to any military folk in their area. By ‘open halls’, we mean to make contact, meet up and just generally be prepared to show hospitality to Heathen military folk. If you and/or your Kindred is interested, please register your name, contact details and location by email at the address below(please state that you're civilian).
