Hi
I found the tribe site after another online friend started a group here on freebirth. Figured I would do a search for some fellow heathens whilst I was here...and here you are.
I am a 30yr old SAHM to 3 children (very soon to be 4). I live in Scotland with my heathen OH and two cats. Originally grew up in Yorkshire in England, was born elsewhere.
Fairly new to heathenism on the whole, but have been using magic in various forms since around 2000. Initiated in witchcraft (not wicca) beside a rowan tree (unlike others...seemingly my guide got 'lost') and was drawn to heathenism by Thor and Sif around 2004/5.
My involvement in local groups has dropped somewhat as my home commitments have increased. I met my partner psychonaut at the local Yggdrasil moot in Glasgow. We originally had a general moot going locally, but as mentioned before...more kids, less time to do things lol
Most of my interaction now is done online with other heathens. On occasion I get opportunity to meet up with like minded people. There is a lady locally who practises Seidr with whom I have met and chanted with.
We get married next year here in Scotland in a legal heathen ceremony. Will be very interested to read any information or references to wedding ceremonies as we are putting the ceremony together ourselves with the help of our pagan celebrant. Combing both Scots and viking traditions.
I have Viking Answer lady's page on the subject bookmarked. Unfortunatley stormerne and arleas ceremony is no longer online and our other friends who had their 'wodening' at the Clava Cairns in Invernesshire...is a bit too long for us personally (we have half an hour lol)
Other than that I am interested in freebirth (purebirth, unassisted childbirth), run the local homebirth support group, and do general web stuff apart from my role as supreme being....I mean mum. History, cooking, eating said cooking...baking chocolate cake...mead....chocolate.
so thats me. Look forward to reading more. Forgive me if I don't post often my time is limited lol

Re: Introduction
Fri, June 6, 2008 - 3:59 PMWelcome! I can relate with your intro. I am father of three and my wife had all three naturally- strange to say that about birth! Time and all...I hope we can enjoy some of the discussions together.
