I suppose there’s some hope for ethnic pagan revival in Armenia. It’s still in its beginning stage, but it’s growing. I see this in all modern nations and cultures. Everywhere people are starting to slowly wake up from the long monotheistic Abrahamic nightmare
If you wish to find some facts that show the difference between the old pagan European rulers, and the new hierarchy of church & Christian monarchs, one of the areas you can look at is Europeans medieval history of poaching.

The information you’ll find in official records is the stuff they didn’t mind telling the public, but if you dig deeper, you’ll find all kinds of records of historical information they don’t want you to know. Like the horrific laws against poaching, and how they punished the common people back then for simply wanting to feed their families as they have always done.

By studying this you will be able to learn just how bad things have gotten for the common people of Europe after they were put through spiritual and social reforms organized by the church and the new Christian monarchs....

The difference was night and day. Old world pagan kings would never watch their people starve, and unjustly punish them just for going into the forests, and hunting game to feed their families. Reserving the right to hunt only for the privileged, and the nobility in the land.

While the common people of Europe starved to death, the new Christian elite conquerers organized themselves massive hunting parties just for the fun of it.

Pagan kings of old didn’t view themselves as being separate from their people, or superior to their people. Pagan kings of Europe, as well as pagan Slavic rulers saw their people as their family.

Pagan rulers of Rus land & Europe were considered as elder of their kin, or father of their kin. They didn’t think themselves to be gods and expected their people to wash their ass for them and serve them as slaves.

European & Slavic pagan kings of old cared about their people. They fought in battles, and bled for their people. They went hunting with their people
When you go to official sources to look up the medieval European history of poaching, they all try to tell you that the common people were allowed to hunt but only on common land. However, they don’t really clarify exactly where the common land was. When you dig a little deeper, you will start learning that this idea that there was a common land that was free for anyone to use is bullshit, because the king/monarch owned all of the land in the kingdom
What happened to Europeans is exactly what happened to Russians, and other indigenous cultures after Christianity took over.

Dr. Leonid Sharashkin talked about this during one of his presentations. He was talking about the new hierarchy of Christian rulers (Romanov Dynasty) in union together with the Orthodox Church changed everything. After they successfully exterminated the previous righteous Slavic pagan rulers, the new Christian monarchs quickly seized all of the Russian land, including the land that the Russian commoners lived on

They declared to the common people of Russia that the new Christian monarchs are one step beneath God himself, this means that all of the land belongs them now, and to obey your king is to obey god.

Then they made sure to seize all of the food sources, food production, hunting & foraging, etc... This is where laws against poaching come in. I don’t know the details, like what were the rules on keeping farm animals on your property, and such. I do know that European and Slavic common people back in those days were always starving and living in severe poverty.

These were the first major steps of enslaving the common people. You take possession of the food sources, land, and suddenly the people don’t have a way to feed themselves no more, they don’t have the land to farm and to live on. So now the people will come to you, because you have something that they need, and in this way you enslave them.

Overtime they made it worse by driving people to forget how to be self-sufficient, how to provide everything you need yourself.

Traditional French summer solstice festivities are linked to Saint Jean (John the Baptist), celebrated on the 24th of June. Customs declined in the 20th century but are still alive in some places. Fires lit on the occasion may have their origin in bringing prosperous harvests.

Bonfires are lit, with dances sometimes going on all night long. Specifics depend on the area but it's customary to jump above the fire, especially for young people, the celebration being linked to youth and life.

There are references to ashes from the bonfires being used to enrich the soil. A charcoal taken from such a fire and placed inside the house is told to keep it safe from lightning and fire.

Certain flowers are picked on the 24th. John's wort is the typical plant associated with that feast but other plants with healing properties are gathered. They are said to be most potent when picked at this time when the sun shines the longest, and to keep their potency all year long. Bouquets are also left to dry and protect the house.

Have you looked up what they did to the Cathars? That was a literal holocaust. And it was racial. Albigensians. Alb = the Aryan word for white. Gens = race or tribal group. LOOK IT UP. Albigensian literally means white tribe.
What a shame that this magnificent 200 feet across swastika symbol in the forest of Germany was removed. The swastika would come in each autumn season, because the trees would turn yellow during autumn. The trees that made up the swastika symbol were a different species of pine trees from the rest of the pine trees in that forest. All of the other seasons, these trees blended completely with the other trees, but during autumn, a giant, gorgeous looking swastika would become visible. Really upsetting that they took it down.
I respect them for protecting their family & property. I’d do the same.

My parents had to move out of their house due to some problems, and temporary move into one of my brother’s houses. The house is located in one of those cookie cutter subdivision, so it’s not like a it’s a poor neighborhood, but majority of people who live there are African Americans.

The reason why I’m even bringing this up, and why I’m pointing out that this neighborhood is full of African Americans, is because for the past month or so, my parents keep finding one of their vehicles covered in ketchup, eggs, even cheese. Just recently one morning my dad went out to turn on his truck, to warm up the engine for the trip to take my mom to work, and found that someone spit on the windshield.

No one knows exactly who did these things, because they didn’t see anyone do it, but I am assuming it’s one of the African Americans who lives there.

It started exactly at the same time when all of the protesting began with violence, looting and destroying

My brother went to install some cameras so we can catch the person/people doing this.

It makes me worry, not for my parents, but because my dad is not someone to fuck with, and if he catches these idiots messing with his house he can really hurt them and then he will go to prison

The husband and wife came out guns blazing to chase BLM/Antifa Marxists away from their property in St Louis tonight.
When we moved into our home three years ago, there was already a figtree growing in the backyard. During summer time the tree gives us a handful of figs almost daily.

When I pick the figs, I talk to the tree, and tell her how much I appreciate her giving us these fruits.

Although in the past I was never really into figs, I now know that fig trees are one of the fruit bearing tree species that grow easy in Florida.

This got me thinking, we should all be constantly planting food bearing plants & trees all over the place.

Everywhere where human populations have settled to live should be surrounded by, and full of plants and trees that bear fruits, nuts, seeds, beans, berries, vegetables, grains, etc...

It should be absolutely everywhere! On everyone’s property, on every street, in the parks, etc...
I agree 100%
