PREVIOUS EVENTS
25-27 February 2022: Norse in Nordmarka - traveling with our ancestors
Norse Tradition arranged a weekend retreat in collaboration with historian and scientist Sturla Ellingsvåg, at the Nordmarkskappell. The weekend was a dive into our ancestors world, in an attempt to understand more of today's Norway. The development of the nordic society throughout the last thousand years was discussed, both from a historical and spiritual perspective. Everything from early European fertility-region through the conquers of the indoeuropean sky-Gods, to the christening and development of a modern society were central themes of discussion. We also wandered about what happens in the crossings of tradition and an ever more globalized world.

28-30 January 2022: Vinterblot
Our first ever Vinterblot was arranged at Svarstad Lodge, just outside Tønsberg. The blot was devoted to the God-creature Tyr. Thus, the lectures of the weekend were also dedicated to how the power of Tyr was expressed in the Norse society, through law, order and justice. We also talked partly about the mystical creature Loke, an expression of the force of chaos, and an opposite to Tyr's force of law and order. ​
