Winter Nights is the holy time when we of Asatru honor the Disir - the female ancestors of our line, often thought of as being led by Freya, the Goddess of love and fertility. Is death merely a curtain, a veil, through which the love and inspiration of our foremothers (and all our ancestors generally) can reach us? Asatruar say "Yes!" - the line of ancestors and descendants transcends time and space, and mortality. Join us as we describe how to honor your own Disir, the mighty women who gave you the gift of life!

Latest AFA Podcast Asks: Where Are Asatru's Cathedrals?
The Asatru Folk Assembly's latest podcast asks: Where are the cathedrals of Asatru? Medieval cathedrals were built to show the power of the Christian God over the centuries. Should our own faith have any equivalent to these magnificent buildings? How would Asatru “cathedrals” differ from those of Christendom? Would they even be places of worship - or would they be something entirely different?
This is thinking on a large scale, but it is time we who follow Asatru begin envisioning that which is far beyond our current reach. Asatru is not just another form of entertainment in a degenerate age, nor a substitute for video games and television triviality, nor is it a club for Viking “wannabees.” To find out more, listen!
