Hermanad Ásatrú Argentina - Martillo de Thór Secoli addietro, gli uomini che abitavano quella che oggi chiamiamo Europa, avevano la stessa religione . Una religione antichissima , che risale alle origini dell’apparizione dell’uomo in questo territorio , migliaia di anni fa . Questa religione del Nord Europa , fu chiamata Ásatrú ( o Asatro). L’Ásatrú è la parte meglio conservata sino ad oggi di questa religione ancestrale . Con l’arrivo del cristianesimo in Europa, l’Ásatrú incominciò ad essere oggetto , prima di una intensiva campagna di evangelizzazione , e immediatamente dopo di una persecuzione feroce ed atroce , che provocò una moltitudine di uccisioni. Le loro feste sacre furono usurpate , i loro monumenti e le loro statue vennero distrutti e i “demoniaci “Ásatrúar assassinati nel nome di un Dio che era loro estraneo. E fu così che l’Ásatrú entrò in un letargo che durò centinaia d’anni , appena rotto da piccoli gruppi o semplici individui che praticavano la loro religione , in molti casi ponendo in gioco la loro stessa vita. Forse, il gruppo più eccellente entro questo periodo fu “La Fratellanza di Odin” ( The Odin Brotherhood) , una società segreta antica di 579 anni. Molti si chiederanno com’è possibile che ci sia gente Ásatrúar in argentina , un paese tanto lontano dall’Europa del Nord , nel quale la religione maggioritaria è il cattolicesimo e la lingua e la cultura sono totalmente differenti . Però non dovrebbe esserci nulla di cui sorprendersi . Gran parte del nostro popolo discende da Europei , da quegli stessi europei (Visigoti, Ostrogoti, Bretoni, Sassoni , Angli, Longobardi, Vikinghi, Germani in generale) che secoli fa praticavano l’Ásatrú.

Welcome! This self-study program is designed for people who have a strong interest in Asatru and want to learn about the gods, rituals, and central ideas of Heathen religion. We expect that most people will take between three and six months to complete the entire course. When you have finished, you should have a good basic knowledge of: -the gods and goddesses of Asatru -other beings we honor (e.g., land-spirits) -the concept of Wyrd ("fate") -Heathen ideas about the soul and afterlife -the modern Heathen community - its ideals, organizations, and differences -types of magic practiced by some Asatruar We hope that this course will equip you to dig deeper into areas that draw you as you continue learning about Heathenism. As you go through the course, one thing that will quickly become apparent is that there is no one "right way" to practice Asatru. In selecting the readings and links for the course, we have aimed to give you some sense of the diversity of ideas and practice within Heathen religion. Ultimately, it is up to you to make your own decisions about what Asatru means to you and how you will practice it. We hope that this course will prove useful to you, and we wish you well on your learning journey! The Asatru-U Committee , Frigga's Web Association, http://www.friggasweb.org

39. WHAT IS ASATRU? Ásatrú has been recognized officially in Iceland, but also has a large following Ásatrú is focused on honoring the two families of gods and goddesses, http://www.erichshall.com/whatis.htm

by Erich Campbell The word "Ásatrú" literally translates as "faith in the gods," but it is best described as the modern rebirth of the indigenous, pre-Christian faith of the Nordic/Germanic peoples. It is a polytheistic faith, meaning that it honors a pantheon of numerous gods and goddesses. Many of the names of these gods and goddesses remain part of our modern culture. One example is found in the days of the week, i.e. Wednesday is Woden's (Odin's) Day, Thursday is Thunar's (Thor's ) Day, Friday is either Frigga's Day or Freya's Day (scholars debate which). Ásatrú has been recognized officially in Iceland, but also has a large following throughout Scandinavia and in America, England, Germany, and other countries. Ásatrú is focused on honoring the two families of gods and goddesses, the Æsir and the Vanir, but it also holds a belief in various other land spirits and a reverence of ancestors. Many follow a list of nine virtues, referred to as the Nine Noble Virtues, that have been culled from the Eddas (our primary sources) and the Sagas. These virtues are: Courage, Truth, Honor, Fidelity, Discipline, Hospitality, Industriousness, Self-reliance, and Perseverance. Ásatrú has a strong emphasis on individual spiritual experience, however, Ásatrú people often form small groups. These groups are variously known as kindreds, hearths, garths, felags, halls, etc. Some have a designated priest or priestess, while others rely on inspired volunteers to lead the celebrations. A priest is referred to as a Goði, a priestess as a Gyðja. There is a great deal of importance placed on the study of the literature, folklore, and history pertaining to the original religious and cultural elements upon which Ásatrú is based.
