I am the founder of the Unapologetic Pagan. I formulated the idea of the "Unapologetic Pagan" when I began noticing a festering movement in the Pagan community, a lurking agenda that sought to undermine the entire community. Something I couldn't put my finger on until one day I heard a quote "We were so busy fighting about what liberties the right was going to take from us that we never saw the monster growing on the left." That's when I took a step back and realized that since the turn of the century we have gone from a community that just won our religious freedom and validity... to a community being taken over by liberal atheist who want it to be just another label in their identity politics. I see a complete white-washing of historical Pagan philosophies into leftist SJW ideology. An unwritten doctrine that dictates anyone who calls themselves a "Pagan" must put leftist fundamentalism first. I knew I needed to take a stand. Someone needed to push back and not allow Paganism to just become another word synonymous with "Liberal lunatics". That someone had to let others like me know they are not alone and that together we can reclaim our faiths and stand together without shame. I started this site originally as a blog in 2015 but after the "Bind-Trump" fiasco I knew the Pagan world needed this site more now than ever, causing me to relaunch with a full .com and contributors joining with me.

Russia’s Witches Back Vladimir Putin With Magic

Coven of Russian witches perform ‘circle of power’ ritual in Moscow to summon supernatural energy in support of President Vladimir Putin

A coven of Russian witches and seers formed a ‘circle of power’ on Tuesday to mobilize their supernatural energy in support of President Vladimir Putin

Dozens of self-proclaimed sorceresses stood side by side to perform the ritual, which they say is one of the coven’s most powerful.

Dressed entirely in hooded black robes, the group read aloud spells and chanted incantations in an effort to support the 66-year-old Russian leader and help him defeat his enemies. 

Alyona Polyn, the head of the coven, said the purpose of the gathering was use the occult to improve Russians’ quality of life which would in turn make the world a better place. 

This means protecting and guiding Vladimir Putin along the right path, Polyn said. 

‘We have gathered here to make the world better off through Russia,’ she said. 

The coven leader led the spell casting during the ceremony in Moscow yesterday. 

‘Breathe, Mother Earth embracing Russia on all sides,’ she recited.

“Oh primordial power, return to the abyss those who wish to hate upon Russia. May Russia rise and step away from grief and poverty and may the coming days open the gates of happiness for Russia. All hail.”

The occult is deeply embedded in Russian history, with the practice of spell-casting and witchcraft dating back to pagan times and its folklore containing various examples of people who posessed mystical powers.

Russia’s Health Ministry data shows that there were approximately 800,000 people in the country making a living through folk healing, practicing psychic mediums or other similar occupations in 2017.

The coven called upon a supernatural power to ‘return to the abyss those who wish to hate upon Russia’

There are a few Witch covens in the United States doing the same for president Trump, unfortunately most mainstream media refuses to even acknowledge these groups existence, let alone report on them. Instead they would rather place sole focus on just the one protest group of Antifa members LARPing as Witches that claim on-line to annually place hexes upon the president

Satanic Temple Threatens To Sue Netflix

Lucien Greaves, cofounder and spokesperson for The Satanic Temple, a collective of left-wing atheist who identify as Satanist to resist christianity, is taking legal action regarding the new Netflix show “The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” for what Greaves claims in a tweet is copyright infringement.

Greaves followed that up with several tweets, defending The Satanic Temple’s position.

Greaves is referring to the statue of Satan, which sits in the fictional main hall of the school the lead character, Sabrina, attends. Greaves claims it is an exact copy of their deity, Baphomet. Of coarse this is like a christian church claiming that a TV show violated copyright because a picture of Jesus on the show looks too much like their own idea of what Jesus looked like.

Keep in mind that the Satanic Temple’s statue was made in the exact likeness of an etching by Elphas Levi in the 19th century. This image has been public domain for over two centuries. It can’t be copyrighted any more than one can claim copyright of the Statue Of Liberty. See the images below and compare for yourself. If the Netflix show ripped off the Satanic Temple, then the Satanic Temple ripped off Levi… it’s that simple.

Speaking with SF Gate, Greaves says The Satanic Temple isn’t doing this for money, no way it’s all about optics… Of coarse that was while they are suing for $150,000,000 (That’s right, you count those zeroes) claiming the show “hurt them” and has hurt their poo widdle business.

“I want them to take it out! It looks like it’s a CGI facsimile to begin with. I don’t know how much work that takes, but I simply refuse to have our monument used in this way in perpetuity. I don’t want our monument to be associated with this.”

Yes, this guy is serious. He and his group literally created a statue for the express purpose of placing it in public spaces to offend people and say “We can put this anywhere we want because… first amendment” is now demanding that another group remove their own statue from a public space because they are offended, free speech be damned.

“It’s distressing on the grounds that you have to worry about that association being made where people will see your monument and not know which preceded the other and thinking that you arbitrarily decided to go with the Sabrina design for your Baphomet monument, which rather cheapens our central icon.”

Honestly this demonstrates just how much of a bunch of LARPiers the Satanic Temple is. A group of social rejects who pretend to be satanist by dressing and acting as evil as they can, while claiming to be total pacifist who are all about peace, love, kindness and all around good fee fees and they are worried people will think they are ripping off a show for former Twilight fans? I don’t think so. They are in this for the legendary cash grab because honestly they have bigger issues with their optics…..

“…which rather cheapens our central icon.” Having followers in Halloween store costumes and corpse paint already did that.
Who put Carl in charge of making our banners? Dammit Carl!

The Cultural Appropriation Of Halloween

It’s that time of year again. To most of us it’s the day we celebrate the end of the harvest, a new year, the turning of summer into winter, our ancestors and the dead. But for the last decade it has become more and more a time for anti-white racist to spread hate with one of their favorite tactics… crying about fake oppression at the horrors of Halloween costumes. It always starts with their favorite go-to accusation, Black Face, A practice that was never started, nor perpetuated, by whites, but instead by the jewish community in Hollywood. (A full video explaining the little taught history of Blackface in America can be found HERE But I don’t want to delve into that as it’s a whole topic in and of itself.) But now the outrage has swelled to engulf almost everything else possible.

A landslide of article ensued screaming outrage that little European Jane has no right to dress as her favorite Disney princess if said character happens to be any other ethnicity but white. BUT WAIT! It is now being written in the laws of social justice that if little European Jane dresses as a  white Disney princess, then she must face the full force of hatred because she’s promoting “White beauty” GASP! Damned if she does, damned if she don’t so sorry Jane, no Halloween for you.

 

And while you’re at it you may as well not even think about celebrating Cinco de Mayo, as told by Newsweek.  So if it isn’t her people’s holiday, she has no right to even partake in it.

But with all of this hullabaloo about stealing other’s culture and not being allowed to celebrate anything that is not your culture, why are these outrage harpies not only often dressing as white characters, but are celebrating what is literally a white ethnic holiday? What? Halloween is white culture? You better believe it.

It would again derail this whole article if I went into the history of Halloween, and nor should I have to waste my time doing so. Everyone older than 30 knows it always was, still is, and always will be, a Celtic and Anglo-Saxon celebration. All of its customs and rituals are the product of ethnic European culture going back thousands of years, predating the pyramids. Oh but “Muh white people don’t have any culture” Pfff, please.

Now before anyone tries claiming Halloween is in any way derived from the south American Día de Muertos just stop right there.  While their holiday may seem similar in their celebration of the dead, they moved THEIR holiday across the entire calendar from the Spring time to coincide with Halloween… which was by leftist terms, a holiday version of colonization.

So for so many all across America and Europe who rail day in and day out about cultural appropriation, and that European people have no right, nor should even dare, be involved in anyone else’s culture, they don’t waste a second’s time jumping right in and celebrate white holidays. Just look at St. Patrick’s day and how many millennial NPC’s will celebrate it and wear green even though they aren’t Irish. See HERE for a video exposing that debacle… but hold on! According to these white-hating racist that holiday shouldn’t be allowed to be celebrated because it is an ethnic white holiday.

So let’s just cut the sarcasm. The core goal is to erase our culture from our own societies and this nothing new, ESPECIALLY for Pagans. In the dark ages christianity would ban the practices of the Old religions as a means of eliminating them from the next generation by attacking those practices as “Satanic”. In today’s social justice culture they use a new word “Racist”. By shaming anyone who dared practice the Old ways and pushing social engineering on the youth by encouraging them to attack any who defy the new social order, the ruling class was able to easily change society to their new society. Today is no different.

Almost all ethnic groups in the world guard their culture and holidays as it is how they maintain their heritage and pride in their people, Whites are not only told they have no culture, they are not even allowed to celebrate their own holidays. And left-willing, those holidays will be banned. If you really want a multicultural society then you are either going to have to practice what you preach and let all children dress as whoever they want regardless of who’s culture it is, or admit that you just hate white people and seek to plunder their culture.

My final word on the matter is this-> Everyone needs to acknowledge we have our own cultures and we all have the right to have pride for our heritage. We don’t demand some non-white be fired from their job if they come to work dressed as Dracula(both a great European historical figure and literary mythical character) so we either continue to share our culture with everyone else without jealousy, or we keep getting shit on and decide that it’s time we start taking our culture back.  But for the Gods’ sakes, Just let the kids be kids and have their fun.

Ancestral Temple seeks funding

A family is trying to raise funding to build a temple in the Ukraine dedicated to venerating ancestors and the worship of Heathen gods.

The Kushnir family currently has four potential locations in the Carpathian mountains, all land they currently own. Check out on potential view.

https://youtu.be/awS_6akMM0k

The inteded size of the temple will be a 16 x 9 meter elevated A-frame design.

Painting of a building the Kushnirs intend the temple to look like.

The inside of the temple will be lined with statues of the gods Svarog, Odin and many others including Slavic, Norse and Celtic dieties.

The family has set up a GoFundMe

They need to raise $50,000 to cover the construction and furnishings. They intend to harvest the wood from the local Forest and use large Timbers to ensure that the building has the potential to last centuries.

Iceland’s fastest growing religion will soon complete the first temple to Thor and Odin in 1000 years

The Norse gods are making a strong comeback after a thousand years in the shadows. Outmaneuvered by Christianity around year 1000, Nordic paganism is now Iceland’s fastest growing religion. From 570 members in 2002, the ‘association of the faith of the Æsir’ – Ásatrúarfélagið – now numbers 3900 Icelanders, making it the largest non-Christian religion in the country.

“I don’t believe anyone believes in a one-eyed man who is riding about on a horse with eight feet,” High priest Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson told The Guardian. “We see the stories as poetic metaphors and a manifestation of the forces of nature and human psychology.”

The pantheistic religion that is the ethnic faith of the Norse people is a prime target for globalist to push their agenda of open borders, homosexuality, forced multiculturalism and the devaluing of European culture. While we would like to think this temple will not fall prey to such things and be used for faith, not propaganda, the reality looks unpromising when the High Priestess of the temple openly states she does even believe in the Gods. Hopefully her views are not shared by her parishioners.

 

Although long in the making, the Ásatrúarfélagið’s first temple is finally expected to stand ready by the end of 2018. It is designed by Icelandic architect and member of the association Magnús Jensson and given a form to underscore a close relationship to earth, sky and sun. The temple will hold a maximum of 250 people for religious ceremonies and concerts.

Although the temple, called Hof Ásatrúarfélagsins, will be Iceland’s first in 1000 years it is likely not to be the last. The land was donated by the city of Reykjavik, and other municipalities have shown interest in having temples built, seeing perhaps the potential allure of tourism. Similarly, Denmark consecrated a temple called Valheim Hof to Odin for the first time in a millennium in 2016.

Photographer Creates Beautiful Scenes from Slavic Mythology

Source

Slavic mythology is an inexhaustible source of inspiration, this has been proven again and again by various photographers. This time you will see the amazing work of Marko Stamatovic from Serbia. His images have been made with great care as he and his studio made all the costumes themselves; and traveled to Kopaonik Mountain just to get that perfect shot.

Long, long ago, in a certain tsardom there lived an old man and an old woman and their daughter Vasilisa. They had only a small hut for a home, but their life was a peaceful and happy one. However, even the brightest of skies may become overcast, and misfortune stepped over their threshold at last…

The costumes and all their details are entirely created from natural materials. Whole costumes were covered with natural maple leaves in various stages of fall color change. The angelic beauty of the models along with the natural beauty of the landscape helped evoke the true magic of autumn’s arrival.

Ancient Sparta: The First Self-Conscious Ethnostate?

Source

Guillaume Durocher, The Occidental Observer, 12 June 2018

If in Athens we have ethnopolitical aspects, insofar as the democracy was tempered by Hellenic virtue, in Sparta we have a State wholly dedicated to systematic organization of the society according to a biopolitical ideal. Sparta’s mixed system of government and fiercely communitarian and hierarchical customs were supposed to have been created by the semi-legendary lawgiver Lycurgus, who perhaps lived in the ninth century B.C. Virtually nothing can be said for certain about his life. Lycurgus was, in later ages, rumored to have traveled to Egypt, Ionia, Crete, and even India, where “he talked with the Gymnosophists,”[1] before establishing Sparta’s constitution. What is clear, in any case, is that the basic law and way of life attributed to Lycurgus, and credited for Sparta’s success, were emphatically biopolitical.

Spartan law and culture were obsessed with systematically ensuring good breeding, martial education, and group unity. Spartan ethics and law considered that what was good was whatever was good for the community. During a debate as to whether a commander had abused his authority, the Spartan king Agesilaus argued: “The point to be examined . . . is simply this: has this action been good or bad for Sparta?”[2] Kevin MacDonald has argued that the law instituted by Lycurgus – featuring in-group altruism, relative egalitarianism, separation from and unity in the face of out-groups, specialization in warfare, and communally-determined in-group eugenics – qualifies as a genuine “altruistic group evolutionary strategy.”[3]

Few forms of government have so drawn the admiration of both liberals and ‘totalitarians’ as that of Sparta. Many republicans, both ancient and modern, have been impressed by the Spartans’ ‘mixed’ system of government, with its combination of monarchic, aristocratic, and democratic elements, as conducive to social unity, stability, and the rule of law. The Founding Fathers of the United States sought to emulate the stability of Sparta’s constitution and saw in it a precursor to their own system of checks and balances. Thinkers of a more communitarian bent, such as Rousseau and Hitler, have for their part admired the city for its rigorous organization in service of the community.

Stonehenge builders used Pythagoras’ theorem 2,000 years before Greek philosopher was born, say experts

Source

The builders of Britain’s ancient stone circles like Stonehenge were using Pythagoras’ theorem 2,000 years before the Greek philosopher was born, experts have claimed.

A new book, Megalith, has re-examined the ancient geometry of Neolithic monuments and concluded they were constructed by sophisticated astronomers who understood lengthy lunar, solar and eclipse cycles and built huge stone calendars using complex geometry

One contributor, megalithic expert Robin Heath has even proposed that there exists a great Pythagorean triangle in the British landscape linking Stonehenge, the site from which the Preseli bluestones were cut in Wales,  and Lundy Island, an important prehistoric site.

Pythagoras’ discovery that the sum of the areas of two squares on the sides of a triangle will add up to the area of a square on hypotenuse has been used for millennia to help builders attain perfect right-angles.

Stonehenge in 2750 BC with the four marker stones picked out

The new book, published today to coincide with today’s summer solstice, shows how within one of Stonehenge’s earliest incarnations, dating from 2750BC, there lies a rectangle of four Sarsen stones which when split in half diagonally forms a perfect Pythagorean 5:12:13 triangle.

The eight lines which radiate from the rectangle and triangles also perfectly align to important dates in the Neolithic calendar, such as the summer and winter solstices and spring and autumn equinoxes.

They also mark Imbolc, the ancient date for the beginning of Spring on February 1, Beltane, or May Day,  lammas, the start of the wheat harvest and Samhain, October 31 which traditionally marked the time when cattle were brought down from summer pastures and slaughtered for the winter which has become Halloween.

A bird’s eye view of Stonehenge showing the rectangle and Pythagorean triangles.

Contributor and editor John Matineau, said: “People often think of our ancestors as rough cavemen but they were also sophisticated astronomers.

“They were applying Pythagorean geometry over 2000 years before Pythagoras was born.

“We see triangles and double squares used which are simple versions of pythagorean geometry. And then we have this synthesis on different sites of solar and lunar numbers.

“We think these people didn’t have scientific minds but first and foremost they were astronomers and cosmologists. They were studying long and difficult to understand cycles and they knew about these when they started planning sites like Stonehenge.

“I do feel very sad that visitors to Stonehenge are not told anything about the astronomical alignments, even when they are very simple to explain.”

Nearly two miles north-east of Stonehenge, stood Woodhenge, which was also constructed using a 12:35:37 triangle.

Pythagorean triangles have also been found at Avebury, the inner ring of the Druid Temple in Inverness, Castlerigg in Keswick, Cumbria, Barbrook, in Derbyshire, Borrowston Rig, on the Scottish borders, and Daviot ‘B’, in Aberdeenshire.

Consequently many stone ‘circle’ were not fully circular but have geometry derived from Pythagorean triangles often in whole numbers of Megalithic yards (2.72 feet)  which were probably laid out using ropes and pegs.

Mr Heath added: “The phrase ‘a length of time’ may originally derive from an epoch when the length of a ruler, rope or set measure actually represented a time period—a technique manifested within many megalithic structures, which enshrine the time periods of the Sun and Moon.”

The huge stones of Stonehenge were also once surrounded by 56 wooden posts or stones  which could be used for predicting eclipses as well as showing the position of the Sun and the Moon and the lunar phases.

And the bluestone horseshoe in the centre is thought to contain 19 stones to represent the number of years it takes for the Sun and Moon metonic cycle to go full circle and reset.

The authors believe that much of the knowledge was lost following the rise of Christianity in Britain.

Robin Heath claims important sites in Britain are also linked by triangles

“These days it’s seen as hippy dippy or New Age, but actually it’s a colossal omission to the history of science that we don’t see these monuments for what they are,” added Mr Heath.

“People see the Neolithic builders of Stonehenge as howling barbarians, when they were very learned and it has been forgotten.”

Megalith is published by Wooden Books.
