Eye color changes definitely. They can go from green to yellow to something past yellow. Thyroid no, but I do become super aware of my own blood and a strong, fast pulse, and afterwards my eyes feel like they were bulging out of my head though I know they were not. Odin, if anything I think, is patient. He was with me.

Just reading an article on Ecstasy and Trance....I do miss like minded people to practice these things with, or just to witness. Maine is very close minded. I miss my Pack!

Someone mentioned a Facebook page back in January on the somafera site. I'm one of the moderators to the page, the younger one.

Hello everyone, I would like to introduce myself and tell my story. My martial arts training is the following from 12 - 16 years old - Iga Ryu Karate (nb. "external" martial art), then from 22 - 26 (now) Yi quan kungfu (nb. an "internal" martial art). The practice of Yi quan meditation (zhan zhuang) is based in the philosophy of Taoism. But the main purpose of Taoism is going back to your roots. The question that came to my mind was: How can I go back to my roots through Taoism as an European? Taoism has its roots in China. The path forward was clear, Odalism. So that is why I am here. As Berserkgangr is a European internal martial art and to stay true to my roots I had to change and morph my style. I am working up slowly to become an Ulfhednar, training in agility, strength and psyche. Using my Yi quan practice for free form fight dancing or weapon dancing. I am sort of a lone wolf in these practices and I like it that way. I am planning on making my own initiation ritual. (I know, It's dangerous bla bla bla, it has to be dangerous for it to WORK.) And we will see if it works. Hope that the exchange of experiences will be useful for all. Friedrich

Skål, I am Eversor, of the old pack of Wayland's. You may remember me, as I am pretty sure I remember you.
Glad to see the torch carried forth in any context.

Welcome Friedrich Eversor and Ophis!
So as for a pissible TN gathering, any time is good for me because I quit my job. What is everyone else's schedule like? Anyone near east TN? I'm so glad all of this is happening.
A gathering may have to more or less be a potluck and definitely bring tents. Is spring good or woyld everyone need longer to save up? Once I get an idea of the # attending i could see how much i could maybe provide foid and drink wise.

"Pissible." That typo is too grand, I shall leave it as it is.

Sometime in later spring would work well for me. Not too long of a drive from PA.
