Chapter 7. At the Well of Urð 199
For these people to function, however, it was necessary that the more ancient Germanic
worldview was upheld and retained as can be seen in any of the Germanic
manuals of charms, such as Pow-Wows or the Galdrabók, mentioned earlier.
As reinforced throughout this entire volume, the ancient Germanic worldview
is a viable matrix for collecting, storing, working with, and making sense out of
personal experience so that the community of all beings within the Tree, including
Lærað Itself, benefit. By grooming the ties that bind all together, all are able to
access power/ luck in their own individualized ways and according to their own
needs. The bundle of lineages flowing through the Tree, the Waters of Life, are
that which maintains the wholeness of the Tree and keep it from falling into eternal
decay (the Ragnarök).
Over the centuries, society, in general, has lost its sense of overall vision, and,
as a result, modern 20th century man is doomed to search for this vision. Until
now, those of Germanic heritage have had to look elsewhere for a workable view
of the world which has resulted in the hodge-podge, crazy-quilt mess of the New
Age. Although everyone has a role within the ancient Germanic worldview, these
seekers in particular have a special need for they have tasted the Waters of the Well
of Mímir and without a home to go to they wander the world ever searching, but
rarely settling to play out their role. At one time, the drinkers of these Waters were
relegated only to the fringe of community because of their internal need for the chaos
of wilderness, but now this chaos is rampant within the enclosure of modern cities.
Because the overall worldview of modern Europeans has been corroded by the acid
rains of the industrial age, their sense of community and singleness of purpose has
fallen into ruin.
The so-called New Age has moved into these communities to fill the gaping holes
slightly, but it is rootless without heritage or lineage. Heritage and lineage can be
provided, but communities are also in sore need of the ancient healers/ poisoners;
these people can bring massive changes that are now so necessary. The Tree/ Waters
complex seems to be spewing forth these Drinkers-at-the-Well at an ever increasing
rate, but without a single worldview, people of Germanic heritage are floundering,
and because of its lost linkages to its own past, this culture carries with it the
potential to do the most damage both because of its numbers and its strength
of weaponry against other peoples and the environment. Indeed, not only does the
potential exist, but this culture already has irreversibly damaged the world it lives in
through its lack of foresight throughout the entire industrial revolution, the uprising
of the Nazi philosophy, and its continued persecution of indigenous peoples as well
as the environment in general.
The Tree is in need of seiðfolk more now than ever and this “need” is consistent
with the ever-growing number of seekers-of-occult-knowledge. Without access to
