Ritual Artefacts
Needed Ritual Artefacts (Heiligr-Domar)
for Any Blöt, Sumbel, Ceremony, and Rite.
Below are suggestions for Göði/Gyðja/Göðar wishing to compile necessary Ritual Artefacts for their Kindred, Hof, and/or Vé (and estimates of related costs for said items)...
Contact HEIF's Outreach Staff if you need directions to where these items can be acquired. The Ritus-Book, Blöt-Book & Heathen Lexicon can be acquired through HEIF, in a single thoughtfully compiled & bound volume (called the Triplette/Treauddr); it is available as a charitable grant/gift for attested Göði/Gyðja/Göðar...
Each Triplette is a well researched reference-book of compiled dialogues, invocations, and blessings for all Goðar administering important Heathen Rituals, Rites & Ceremonies of Blöt, Sumbel, Naming, Wedlock, Healing, and Passing/Funerary-rites. It offers concise guidance & a limited lexicon of Heathen sayings, terms, principles, and concepts. It features an extensive 9-year Almanac for keeping many important Holy High-Tides & celebrations sacred. HEIF annually updates, improves, and publishes the Treauddr as part of it's charitable mission in support of the ritual practice of Asatru Heathen Native Faith...
