Earendel Home Page
Welcome to Earendel Hearth. Earendel is an Anglo-Saxon Inhired dedicated to keeping the ways of our ancestors. We believe that the true path of the Anglo-Saxon Pagan lies within honoring the Gods, Goddesses, ancestors and Spirits of the land in similar fashion to that of our Germanic ancestors.
Earendel Inhired is very serious in its collective and individual member's pursuit and study of the old ways. Some of our senior members have made several trips to England, where they've had the opportunity to visit sacred sites such as the Rollright Stones and Arbor Low. They've gazed out over Hadrian's wall, explored the Yorkshire moors and traversed the "witchcraft country" of Lancastershire.
Here in the United States we do our best to integrate our international experiences with what we learn about the indigenous beliefs and customs of the Anglo-Saxon people. We enjoy activities that help us connect not only with the earth and fellow man, but also with the lives of our ancestors and spirits of the land. For us, our spirituality is an important and integral part of our lives. We also recognize that spirituality in our Anglo-Saxon ancestor's perspective was a belief system that was both functional and indefinitely sustainable.
The family of Earendel strives to accurately practice the old ways. Not just in how we as a tribe praise and honor the gods, goddesses, elves, dwarves, woodwose and wights, but, in how we live our daily lives.
In today's fast paced, technologically oriented world, this is not an easy task. We work hard, in much the same way our ancestors did, to cultivate oneness with the earth, animals and nature, by planting and harvesting crops, practicing bee-keeping and harvesting their honey for use in mead making.
In this way the folk of Earendel share many of the challenges, and even some of the hardships that our ancestors did. It is through this labor, that we strengthen the bonds of kinsmanship, experience a small piece of what our ancestors did, and keep the old ways intact.
