On today's episode, I sit down and talk to Adam Cage and Alex, one of his children who went through a rite of passage into adulthood during Shadowmoot last year. Adam and Alex describe some of the details that went into this ceremony, and how important this type of ritual is for other children growing up in pagan / heathen communities.

You can connect with Adam over Facebook if you want to find out more about the Coming Of Age ceremony he talks about during this episode: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100083636446363

A nithing pole event appears in Egils saga: "And when all was ready for sailing, Egil went up into the island. He took in his hand a hazel-pole, and went to a rocky eminence that looked inward to the mainland. Then he took a horse's head and fixed it on the pole. After that, in solemn form of curse, he thus spake: 'Here set I up a curse-pole, and this curse I turn on king Eric and queen Gunnhilda. (Here he turned the horse's head landwards.) This curse I turn also on the guardian-spirits who dwell in this land, that they may all wander astray, nor reach or find their home till they have driven out of the land king Eric and Gunnhilda.' This spoken, he planted the pole down in a rift of the rock, and let it stand there. The horse's head he turned inwards to the mainland; but on the pole he cut runes, expressing the whole form of curse." - Egils Saga, Chapter LX.

In Iceland there are modern examples of a nithing pole being raised. It is thought that the tradition has continued unbroken since the settlement of Iceland. A notable example from 2006 happened when a farmer in Bíldudalur, claiming direct descent from Egill Skallagrímsson, raised a pole with a calf's head attached against another local man with a note attached to the effect that he would not rest until the man was either outlawed or dead. The reason the nithing pole was raised was that the man had run over the former's puppy. The matter was reported to the police as a death threat.

In 2006 a local politician in Norway raised several sheep-head nithing poles in protest of a local election.

Improvised nithing poles with dried cod heads were used during the April 4, 2016 demonstration against Icelandic Prime Minister Sigmundur Davíð Gunnlaugsson.

On April 3, 2020, a nithing pole with two svið was put up in front of the Alþingi in Iceland. A sign on the pole cited that the government had been allegedly treating working classes that are predominantly female poorly, for example, lowering the pay of nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic. The pole claimed to turn that around on the Alþingi with the curse.

Additional reference not mentioned in this episode: The Icelandic Vatnsdæla saga records that when Finbogi failed to show up for a hólmganga (duel), Jökul raised a nithing pole against Finbogi for his cowardice by carving out a human head which was placed on a post with magic runes, killing a mare, and then placing the post into the mare's breast with the head facing towards Finbogi's dwelling.

Sources that mention using fire to set sacred space:

Eyrbyggja Saga: "Thereafter Thorolf fared with fire through his land out from Staff-river in the west, and east to that river which is now called Thors-river, and settled his shipmates there." Landnámabók: “There he called it Svertingsstöðum. He there build a temple…. That land, Jörundr carried fire around where he later laid his temple.” Old Saxon Heliand Fitt 2: "The wise old man then brought holy smoke from** the temple and walking around the altar with his censer, powerfully serving, devoutly carried out his task; performing God's Ritual very eagerly with a clear mind." ---**--- “holy smoke”. Saxon Heathens created sacred space by walking around an area with fire, or by sprinkling blood from a blod (animal blot). Here Zachariah is burning holy smoke (fire) creating sacred space in the Saxon Heathen manner at an outdoor altar. Saxon altars were outdoors in a sacred grove.

In Njál’s Saga, Hjalti Skeggison openly mocks Freyja and Odin, for which he is sentenced to outlawry.“Ever will I Gods blaspheme,Freyja methinks a dog does seem,Freyja a dog? Aye, let them be,Both dogs together, Odin and she.”

In the Kjalnesinga Saga, Búi said it was ergi to give blót, presumably because you’d prostrate yourself. The goði Þórgrím accuses Búi of false worship, and he’s sentenced to outlawry.
