A Norse Pagan Sacrifice to Thor // The ASATRU Blot explained in detail. 

I just did a ritual following your instructions and I messed up a few parts and getting the words out was hard stuttering a few times but I was able to do it, I used a hammer that my late grandfather owned I thought it was perfect especially if it was something from my ancestor. I gave my thanks to Thor for being the guardian of midguard and the realm eternal and for giving me the strength to control my fears and expressed to be friends I also asked for strength to tell my family one day. Most of my family are Christians most will probably won’t understand mostly my mother who was born paranoid and my great aunt who’s a southern Christian so yeah

Hail from Florida. Heathen for more than 30 years, enjoyed your blot. I have always been solitary in my blots. Thankful there are more of us than there were when i began my ancestral worship. Hail to the old Gods!

Cool, clean, simple and to the point. Excellent video on blot' for those new to the path. Myself having been Heathen for many, many years, basically the only things I do different are first I consecrate the circle with fire; either a censur bowl or a candle. Second, I also close above and below in addition to the four corners. But that's just me. Everyone does what they feel comfortable with, and what they feel the gods expect from them. TAK!

So i followed the instructions in this video and did my first blot. It was really weird at first i was incredibly nervous but after the hollowing it was actually really calming and peaceful and powerful.

Thank you so much for creating this video. I am extremely new to Heathenry and am still trying to find my way. I live in a very small town with limited resources, so RU-vid is a great place for me to spend some time. What is the best beginner, but not cheesy, book to assist in discovering Asatru and specifically daily rituals, blot's meditations, etc. Again, thank you so much for being in this space.

I'm really glad I found your Channel. I have only recently began to get real serious on this journey of connecting with the Gods and spiritual ways of my ancestors. I found this video very straightforward and informative. I did one solo Blot using a combination of stuff I found in books and my intuition a couple of years ago, but didn't do it again for fear of doing it "wrong", and even worse, offending the Gods. Now I see that my fear was misplaced.

Just found this I am new to Asatru and have been planning to do my first blot and this is probably the first most comprehensive set of instructions on a blot that I could find so thank you

Hail thor may he give us strength and protect Midgard from corruption and evil

Raised heathen, last 10 years verrrry solitary practice, last 2 meeting with a kindred monthly and experiencing structured group ritual, learning and growing but solo practice is still foundational, thank you for sharing and hail!

As a Ásatroende swede who still worships in the way of my ancenstors, I say you did a good job. When I my self and pagan friends give to Tór I do it short and with power, tho I know that is what that nature energy is that i give to. Keep up the old ways and stay safe.

I am an avid hunter and I always make it a point to perform a ritual to ask Ullr for a safe and successful hunt and I offer a portion of the meat from a successful hunt after the hunt has concluded

Thank you Brother for this guidance. Odin has shared some of his wisdom with you and we are grateful that you share these insights with us. Gods keep you brother and may wisdom continue to guide you.

Hail Thor 🍻 blessed be by friend 🙌

Thank you for remembering us HIR (heathens in recovery)

Thanks for sharing this with the folk.

Thank you for showing this, when I first started looking into the faith I was drawn right to Thor and it's great to see an example of how to honor him.

Thank you SO much for this - a video that actually SHOWS a way of devotion, beyond merely describing it. I am *just* at the beginning of learning/reading about Asatru. For a while, it seemed like it would be the least-likely path of interest to me, because my perception was that it embodied a hyper-masculine, uber-militaristic slant. But what I'm seeing and finding (so far) seems to suggest otherwise.

would water be considered an appropriate offering to Thor if the Blót is performed in a desert climate?

Stellar man. Thank you for sharing.

nice simple instructional video. I think a ritual knife is a important tool but I always cut a hlauteinn. I also think some kind of fire is very important this could be a candle or a bonfire. I pass an iron hammer and a lit candle over the perimeter of my circle. another thing I like to do is an appropriate sending off of the offerings, either dig a hole and pour it in or into a body of water or scattered up to the sky or into the fire as appropriate. spiritual hygiene is important purify and consecrate your thoughts speech and actions, your ve and your tools and make sure who your offering is going to is explicitly stated.

I only do solitary blots. I don't know any other Asatru/vanatru. I talk to the Gods and Goddesses by myself every day. I use my handmade runes to pray and talk to the Gods and Goddesses of Asgard. I have made several sets of Rune stones and Rune cards. I pray in my living room.

I feel the world needs more of this. I personally feel many heathens blot or sumble privately because they fear of what others might say. “You’re doing it wrong” “You messed up” “You didn’t add this” And at the end of the day I’m sure of it, the gods would appreciate the effort alone, than to fear attempt. I personally try to keep it original as possible, with modern, realistic attributes. My family doesn’t and I don’t believe in wasting food, so burning the offering, burying it, or leaving it isn’t a practice we do. I typically will use a liquid offering as you stated, but if it’s a food, such as a meal or feast, I’ll typically dedicate the meat of the animal to the gods, ask them to bless the meal, and invite them to feast within the meal. Kinda like we were sharing the meal with them. Hail to you!

I blot to Eir frequently alone, to thank her for my skills in healing and to focus my strength on certain people when needed. Thank you for doing these videos and sharing your knowledge. It is appreciated.

I came over here from Tik Tok looking forward to learning….

This is the only channel that I can trust to get straight to the point, receiving knowledge without all the hype. Thank you for your genuine intention. Hail Thor!

I'm a solitary practitioner and do solitary blót all the time be it in my home or outside in the back i have a spot in the mountains good hike to get there i have stone's there for offering. What i us along with what you already mentioned is smoke white Saga or something i make and fire a small candle but be careful and mindful when doing so and a small food offering and some coins and words of my own. Simply amazing and beautiful my friend 🤘🏼❤️‍🔥⚔️🛡️ thank you for this video once again

Thank you! I am doing my first ever Blot tomorrow. I really needed this. I will do it in a old place of worship in Sweden. I am really nervous and excited.

A lot of things that you have said have really hit home. The actual showing of what to do or even the interpretation was awesome for me. I really appreciate this channel! I hope to one day meet in person with you to learn more and also celebrate!

I'm sorry if I mess up the spelling, but Id like to set up my own "vae"? (I'm thinking about starting a kindred my self) do you have a video on dedicating a space?

I've done a solo blot. Great video btw, hail Thor!

Loving the videos. So question are you going to do one on how to make one of those awesome basket packs? I live in North Florida, and anytime a hurricane comes my way I do a blot to Thor and leave the Beer in my Blot Bowl on the horge until the hurricane blows by, every time i have done this there will be limbs everywhere but the blot bowl full of beer is still there and i pour it out at a tree

Raised Mormon tell I was 8 and took a stand against my parents about the religion. Looked into a few different religions but none seemed on the up and up. Interested. :)

Thank you for the Thor blot! Very moving and potent really enjoyed being a part if it, Hail Thor!

Hello, Im new to being pagen, and I live in Kansas. I don't know where to find a kindred here. What do I look for?

Hello! I have a question well 2 really how did you get your handheld hammer? I have one but its huge my grandad made it im 15

I loved this video. The continued blessings of the Gods and Ancestors upon you!

That was truly interesting. It does not seem as difficult as I thought it was going to be. So why do you use the hammer to open the blot but not to close it? Is it because you did not need the protection anymore after you were done?

Hail Thor powerful god of Thunder!!!

I loved this, thank you! Hail Thor!

Have you been a pagan your entire life? Did you ever subscribe to the Christian faith? If so, what changed you and why? No disrespect intended. My great grandparents are from Finland and I often wonder about the faith of my elders.

Great video; thank you for posting. Newb question: Are these details as you described here attested to in Icelandic sources, or do they fall in the portion adopted from Wicca as part of the revival process?

i have ben locked up for yrss we put a blot togher we did not have none of this this is so all some ..thanks man good stuff ..would you email info

Hail Brother! I have long since lost parts of my Kindred and have heard your words. It brought tears to my eyes, drumming to my heart and lightening to my skin to hear another speak of our ways so rightfully put. Thank you for awakening a part of me I though was long since jaded and missing. Hail!

As far as offering go. I have it is not good to offer your own blood. Is there a particular reason for this? I dont know anything that can be more sacred to oneself other than the essence of one self.

In the event of using a food offering, is it acceptable to burn it for the gods, or is it best to simply leave it as is?

Hail Thor!

I will try this tomorrow. Thank you so much for the guide 👍

Love the scarf and examples used here. TY 😊

Having noone in my area to practice with this helps me out alot thank you

Can we wear Odin spear or dos it need Hamer and do other gods and goddess have a symbol like Iike the hammer

I found this interesting and beautiful - appreciate you sharing Dave

May you all make it a blessed May Day. 🔥

One thing I must ask, what did you mean when you said "as we emerge as the dominant force in Midgard"?

Does the sprig have to be pine?

I just realized... But need insight. Would your hammer pendant be a good hammer to use if you don't have one?

Thanks for the great video. I would ask, what are the reasons that you ask for protection via the 4 directions and the necessity for closing at the end?

Awesome

Thanks for sharing!

I have a question about the resiteing part what if its something you wrote and you just have a bad memory so you need the paper would that be ok as I'd consider it still from the heart if it was written by yourself and not someone else

Hello friend

Hmm... would you talk about people who are not european or don’t have european ancestry but they try or want to practice asatru? What do you think about that?

Can confirm that this is legit, I did this and chris hemsworth showed up!

Have you heard of the Dephi murders?
