Welcome to Gaia! ::

Don't worry about Zombies; worry about Draugr.
Norse Undead are much worse!

i like to wrassle ^^ draugr aint to worry ^^ I just just can't wait to hang out with the big snake and giant puppies the undead chicks and ride on fingernail boats ^^ sounds like a blast. just hope its in my lifetime id rather fight as me than a draugr.

Zombies are only something to worry about if your on the Wrong side^^ Zombies, draugr, big puppies, giant snakes, sounds like resident evil ^^

Not as much 'zombies' as rotting corpses with superhuman strength and toughness as well as a really bad attitude... and in some versions of the myths they do have a taste for human flesh. domokun

Heilsan Allir,

Have had much discussion on this with traditionalist Seid Folk and such, and one of the best comments came from someone whom knew a traditional South American spirit worker, and paraphrasing said:

"What do you do when you've finished with last years calendar?"

Indeed, this is how I see the whole 2012 thing. We've got people panicking over nothing. Some real research on the concept will see that the 2012 is the ending date for the Mayan Long Count Calendar (yes, that means they had short count Calendars as well), which is tied into a specific celestial event which happens every few thousand years (sorry for the paucity of definitive information but some basic research will find you factual websites dealing with the topic).

Ultimately, we need to live our lives prepared for things to change as much as they will, on a day to day level. Something like 2012 is only a focus, a bit like the year 2000 and the year 1000. Both had a mass of hysteria attached, and what happened... Does that mean that we shouldn't be prepared in our day to day lives, well, certainly not. But rather than preparing for the end of the world, we should be prepared for storms, government problems, supply problems, etc. Live each day to the full, and let the long term take care of itself.

Heilsan Allir,

I am less inclined to view Ragnarok as being set in stone, as being a prophecy. For those of us whom work with Wyrd, there is an understanding that at some point in time something like Ragnarok becomes pretty much unavoidable, but up until that time, we have a choice, and it is our choices, how we live our lives which create the web of Wyrd and as such, we can choose to engage in actions which either bring Ragnarok closer, or actions which keep Ragnarok as a possibility.

Valhol is a place one can choose to go, in other words, one is given the choice of whether or not one goes to Valhol. Now, I don't at this stage have a fully realised and referenced argument for this, being at the moment more along the line of a general theory of mine based on study and reading to date, as well as intuitive process. Although I am sure that at some stage of matters, things will solidify in this regard, and I'll end up writing something about the whole thing which explains my reasoning and such much better. For the moment it's purely a personal theory up until a time when I write something far more well formed than a basic theory.
