We need to reclaim the Bear for the Norse Berserkers, my brother. It's far too cool an animal to be corrupted by the Russians

Indeed. It is a damn shame, especially given how profoundly admired the bear and its image was, although Ruskies and Slav bros are kind of wanting for the iconography. To be clear: all of the indigenous ethnic religions of Europe have features worthy of appreciation IMO, but Norse paganism in particular is a treasure trove of symbolism and almost an embarrassment of aesthetic riches. I mean, just the Ægishjálmr, Gungnir, Mjölnir, Triskele (Óðrœrir, Boðn, Són), Valknut, Vegvisir and Yggdrasil alone is a KO1.

I'm almost full-blooded Celt, with only a tiny fraction of Norse DNA. I once asked a friend of mine, who has decades of experience in various Magical and Religious systems, why I was so drawn to Odin, Thor etc rather than the Gods and Goddesses of my own ancestors. He answered,

"A man doesn't choose his Gods. The Gods choose him".

Looks like I'll be queued up in some Soviet Like-line. Forty likes equals one like on sherdog.
