- Ghost Cult was honored to interivew Maria and Chris from Heilung at the Moxy Hotel in New York City, as they wound up their amazing North American tour, where they performed their ritual nightly! We chatted about the rise of the band, their beginnings and how they came together, what kind of practice and preparation goes into creating their instruments and garb, the theatrical basis for Heilung live rituals, how they approach creating music, how Heilung is really their lifestyle, not a concert or shows as a normal band would, why Metal fans, in particular, are drawn to them, how to become a "warrior" when they come to your town, and much more! They even gave us a prop from their tour at the end of the chat, which was awesome (pictured in our thumbnail)! Thanks to Season of Mist for hooking it up! Interview with Keefy ( ghostcultkeefy), and editing by Omar Cordy of OJC Photography ( OJCPICS), with A/V help from Jason Dean ( bunnysyn_photography). Theme music by Salted Wounds ( saltedwoundsnyc).

Usually I am not commentating on RUclips, but this needs to be said: Thank you! Finally I see an Interview with someone asking questions, who is clearly feeling their music. There is nothing worse than reading reviews and interviews and the people asking the questions or writing them are just doing their job. I love how sometimes the interviewer is missing words or repeats himself. That just shows how he feels it.
Thanks! That really means a lot!
It was literally one of the few times "I don't know what to say, I cannot put this into words" was the totally right thing to say. We know what you were trying to say instinctively but we don't have the words either.
You should watch Heilung: Tea Time Interview with Maria Franz & Elizabeth Tharoff. It's a very detailed interview as well
Heilung taught me the importance of space between sounds and how real a higher vibe is... We are their psychedelic brothers in america...sort of... You either get it or you don't....we try to get a vibe across with just our instruments... Heilung is like no other band ...so deep and intertwined.... contemplative... Love it!
took the words i was to type
'Heilung do not have fans, they have brothers and sisters' ❤
That makes things a bit awkward when you're in love with Maria...
ah i know right, love them
@@darkiee69 i know how you feel ......
@@AnajutheKhajiit same
I so want to go to a show.
Heilung...
We don't have fans... we have brothers & sisters.
We don't play concerts... we conduct rituals.
We don't go on tours... we go on raids.
THANK Y'all
if no blood is spilt its neither a raid nor a ritual
The band is so metal they don't even need guitars
Agreed!!!
I was just thinking the other day that Heilung is proof that you don't need to be metal to be metal.
The band is so metal... they don't even need metal... so they use bones & wood.
Raw metal.
Great comment
This is my church, these are my people.
Them incorporating Indigenous communities here in the US and their discourse on it - my heart is so fucking full. I didn't realize it was possible for me to love them more but there it goes. "We are not here to take, we are here to give. But you cannot give anything if there's no one to give to. Without the blessing of the people that owns this place." 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
🤍
I think they also ask the first nation for permission before hand to to be part with them
I am living with O.C.D. I live my life in rituals. Every morning, when I take all my vitamins, and my kratom, I HAVE to take all my meds while I listen to Heilung. They have become part of my morning ritual. I don't feel ready to start my day until I've listened to them. I have listened to them every morning for the last few years. (My neighbors just love me)
Her hair is SOOO pretty.
Yes! I was looking for this comment. I love Caucasian dredlocs too. I hate that so many don’t understand that people can choose to allow the hair that grows from their own heads to loc. Hers are healthy & beautifully maintained.
If aliens land on this planet and we need to send representatives, we should send Heilung.
These guys are the closest you can get to the truest, purest form of us human beings.
Not corrupted by the many forms of stupidity of our modern society.
No because then they’d be disappointed when they see the rest of humanity
LOL.
I have to say Tim, this is one of the most dead on comments that I'm going to read all year. Respect 🙏
@@Nitlda You know there are literally many kinds of people right, they are nothing like my Lakota tribe, and that’s ok, they don’t have to be. Also, what’s so original, they literally said they used a stylist to come up with their aesthetic.
Imagine Heilung featuring Wardruna, that would be truly amazing to see on stage!
That is our dream show!
My dream too!
@@papaskazoo5860 me too, I’d love them to come to Australia
And Danheim too! :D I have tickets to see Wardruna and hopefully COVID can go away by that time, they've already had to postpone their dates once already! :)
That would be absolutely fantastic not gonna lie. Hopefully once this pandemic is over and we start getting live music events on the regular again, we might see a collab between Heilung and Wardruna.
The closest we've gotten to that collab so far is Vallåt by Kaunan, released a couple years ago, which Einar Selvik and Maria Franz both sang on. If you haven't checked it out already I'd really recommend you give it a listen, they both complement each other very well.
I was at two concerts of them. The first on a pagan festival in the Netherlands and it was the most beautiful concert ever seen/ experienced.
It was in the evening and we were all outside, all listening to another pagan group on another stage. When it was time to go to there stage, we all run to see the ritual in the beginning, and it was so mesmerizing! The moon came behind the stage like it has meant to be.
It was one big ritual, we were all in a mesmerizing state of mind and so happy.
It was their first concert and I was there, and it was a very very beautiful pagan night. In the beginning of the evening we burnt the wickerman and we finished with the most beautiful ritual with Heilung.
Y'all got Blessed 💓
I absolutely adore Heilung. I feel like I've found my tribe, my Germanic roots. It's raw and primal and I freaking love it.
Us too! Thanks for sharing and supporting us and the band!
Support Indigenous Peoples and battle against empire for that primal love together!
I remember 20 years ago with my generation, Gen X, we felt so cluttered and confused with technology that we yearned to return to the wild but didn't know how. Today, everyone brings their cell phones to concerts instead of living and being a part of the moment. And now with Heilung, once again people are becoming the moment by interacting physically, mentally and soulfully to the music. It's so good to see!
I am what you call Gen X (I find these "generations" a stupid concept) and I love technology ever sind I got my hands on a Commodore 64. Still, I barely use my phone, which is collecting dust most of the time. There are times when I enjoy messing with tech like building a new PC and times when I prefer to relax like when using public transport (while nearly everyone else is playing on their phone). I would rather buy the Live DVD afterwards.
The sad thing is, living in an apartment now, I can't even play loud music. Else I could have my own little "Concert". Headphones simply aren't the same, when you want to feel the sound.
@@moomah5929
It's just not right to stack people on top of each other!
No matter what you do or don't do, there will always be someone who's offended or pissed bc of it.
No wonder that most of the people who live in these big citys are so angry, and behave/act so weird all the time.
oh they still stare into their tiny screens watching their filming of the gig instead of the actual Heilung in front of them ... Blews my mind but they do it .
15:55 I saw them live in NYC last week and oh boy. When they entered on stage I could feel their power. My whole body vibrated. They are the read deal. They are not performers of any kind. I knew right away it was a ritual and them getting into trance. I could feel the energy moving. It activated my own Primal being. It was pure ecstasy for me which I noticed majority of the crowd simply did not get. It went over their head. They came to watch a show. They missed the ritual part. And how in the bloody world can you listen to their music and NOT DANCE???? It was beyound me. People are so disconnected from the Primal source, so dead inside.. I know the music of course touched and moved them, but they were not fully connected. Not even close. Listening to the recorded music (even live performances) is still nothing compared to physically being in their powerful healing presence and feeling the immense vibrations of the drums and the bass. I felt at home. Nothing else has ever truly made me feel that way.
Amazing! Thanks for sharing!
Not sure if dancing is it. i never dance eigther. But i feel this Music. I spend hourse here in the German woods.
So i am close to the Nature. And this Music is the Soundtrack to that.
Heilung changed me. I am your sister. We are all brothers and sisters. (please...come to Sao Paulo, Brazil) and YES, I would love to go on stage with you!!!
Um show em Curitiba/PR pra ficar bom pra todo mundo.
My husband I got to see you when you came to Maryland. I’m not sure that words can describe the trans-formative experience we were granted by participating in your ritual. Thank you for coming to America and sharing it with us. We hope you come back again.
Lots of Germanic/ Scandinavian people's here in the US, myself included ☺️
@@volkischfrau2957 British are direct predecesors of germans, danish and french, it's just that their language (as well as french) was severly alterated by latin, but they're all the same nordic culture.
I went to see them in Asheville this past weekend, and it has changed me. Knowing that this exists and now it has been taken away (I can't go to EVERY one of their concerts, unfortunately) has left me feeling like there is a hole in my heart longing for more. I wish I could create sounds and a ritual like theirs. I feel lost
Thanks for sharing! Wardruna is coming to the US again next month. Also check out Myrkur, Urferd, Lili Refrain, Kariti, and more!
@@GhostCultMag I will look into all of these, thank you for the suggestions and thank you very much for this lovely interview ♡
I am very tempted to fly to their upcoming concert in Minnesota, just so that I don'tmiss out on seeing them again
Nothing like treating yo self and traveling for a show!
"How're you guys doin?"
*Nods*
"Great"
I was at one of their concerts yesterday... and I am just speechless... 💚
This is often the case!
These guy, you can tell they genuinely love what they do and they don't care about pandering to the masses, they want to make their music an experience! A spiritual, unreal experience!
and oh boy is it an experience, i need to go to a live ritual at least once
My heart and mind were opened more by you guy's and the music makes my body feel electric and i feel emotionally connected.
Im from a small town in Vinton iowa were we are pushed away because we don't go to church but when we were introduced to your group something inside awoke.
Organised 'Religion' was meant to keep us divided and make us beLIEve that we were born with 'original sin', we were actually born with the DIVINE SPARK... HEILUNG UNITES us! Much Love Brethren!
From Missouri here. I know exactly what you're talking about, and I empathize with you.
Thank you Heilung for your gifts. The brotherhood and sisterhood. I feel so very connected...your purity of intent through ritual is beautiful beyond words. Thank you for helping me remember what has always been there! Forgive my lack of eloquence here. Words are useless to express the spirit...
Wow, thank you
No drums in Scandinavia? What sound do you get when you smash the skull of your enemy against your shield?
:-P
Exactly!
I discovered Heilung about 2 years ago and I am absolutely blown away at the level of talent, creativeness and stage presence. Its not a show. Its an experience. I cant wait to see them live.
seen them yet?
I was at the Mtl ritual and I have to say that it was the most intense musical experience I have ever had. I absolutely agree with them saying that we are all there together living the moment, the drums pounding move all of us in the same frequency uniting us as one movement. I was right in front of the great Priestess Maria and I was absolutely in awe of her, her movement, her voice, her proximity (I have a huge crush on her! Is she and Chris still together !?). All Heilung were incredible, the 2 maidens on vocals and instruments, the Shaman, the viking drummer, Kai and his incantations, Chris with the voices from beyond and the unmiked chants of the warriors, this tribe is absolute must see event, I wish they come back during summer to live it again outside with the actual contact to earth, wind and stones, and beasts and trees. Heilung Uber Alles !!
I was there too Brother!
I love the degree of eldritch insanity in your post, you really make me feel like being inside a lovecraftian apocalyptic story :D
Best. Reply. Ever. EVER!
Ritual has been taken from us and given into the hands of clergy alone. Yet, humans NEED a "Sacred place" instead of the mindless 'carnival' we are subject to 24/7. A Spiritual Center within each of us allows us to develop recognize the multi-level Beings that we are, but have not been taught to "be":)
Maria ,imo is so powerful up there. Her voice is Angelic yet powerful & strong & connects.
I've wondered what it is like trying to go thru customs here and there with the equipment they carry...bones, shields, etc :)
I've wondered the same!
@@heiress2hades579 ...Whose blood is this.
I’m studying history and hope to go into museum work and help make history more accessible, immersive and interactive for people. And Heilung do exactly that, and with such passion and authenticity. They’re a huge inspiration!!! I’ve been telling everyone I know about them since I discovered them :)
That is awesome! Best of luck!
@@GhostCultMag thank you so much!!!
Saw them in Silver Spring, MD...no words to describe the experience...hope they come back next year!!!
Keefy, I want to say that I greatly appreciate the way you handled this interview and your obvious connection to the music. The humility on display in this video is hard to find these days. Be well and take care!
Thanks so much!
Great interview! They are so well spoken and answered in such detail! Its really good to see them taking off and getting huge support here in the US. I find it amazing, too, how different Maria's other band, Euzen, is compared to Heilung.....just multi-talented musicians all around!
Chris is in Euzen too. They also have another project called Songleikr.
I want to go to their next ritual performance so bad. The only problem is that everyone in my family are Christian and would be scared/ weirded out by this😔 we are from Rhineland-Pfalz Germany originally and this music pulls me back to my ancestors, which I need do badly!
I'm a catholic and went to see them last year November time in London was absolutely amazing was a bit scares tho aha
Ironic since Christianity is literally a form of doomsday death cult, a real apocalyptic death cult not a fictional media portrayal.
@@whatabouttheearth on what do you base this on?
the perfomance of the ritual was amazing and perfectly. I think most of us who attendant this performance get very emotional.
Well said!
it's already been said but this is one of the best interviews (conversations) I have ever seen. We can identify with the interviewer as much as with Maria and Chris, No embarrassment, no posturing, just genuine passion and love. And Maria and Chris are every bit as wonderful and articulate as I could possibly have hoped. Like the music, these people are unique, compelling and make you feel you've known and loved them as long as you have been alive. Remarkable people and a truly wonderful life experience (so much more than a band)
This was a good interview, I was dying to hear about the "clothes" that are worn and so pleased Chris corrected any notion that they are remotely costumes, how brilliant. I would love to learn more about this attire as it looks so Shamanic to me, very reminiscent of what Siberian Shamans wear.
It is so moving to hear them refer to ceremony and brothers and sisters, so powerful and i'm uplifted to realise it isn't just a show, but they really get it and know exactly what they are doing. This is all so timely and the movement towards plant medicines and endogenous healing traditions is spreading and something deeper is coming up to the surface and Heilung is embodying this impulse.
Thanks for watching! Hopefully, in our best interviews we learn stuff right along with the fans. This was one of those days.
It’s regalia not costumes
We paint our drums with our blood.....bruh this band is on a wholenother level 🔥 can't stop listening
Neither can we! Stop listening, that is!
@@GhostCultMag fr...definitely a breath of fresh air...lol got it playing in the background rn...keep up the good content 🔥
Thank you Maria, for including our indigenous Native American Tribes, you all warm my soul and my heart
I just discovered this group 2 weeks ago honestly, never heard of them before that and I must say I wish I would have known about them sooner. I hope they come back to the United States and tour Detroit I would totally try to get tickets. I am really transfixed when listening to their music. It's so full of life and magic it's incredible.
Jacob McCorry they are coming back for 1 show at Red Rocks in October.... if you have a chance, gooo, i saw them In Denver and seeing and hearing them live is amazing
Thanks for thi reply! You rule!
Heilung rocks, Best Wishes to the Collective!
Edit: Also fact that Nature right now is in Great Danger, needs more attention to it
1:36 I feel like when Maria Franz speaks, she is still singing...
The family will be there! Im so excited the stars are all that have been missing from the ritual.
amazing Ceremony in NY, thank you for the amazing energy.
Glad you enjoyed it! it was an unforgettable few nights!
Proud to be a Member of this Family! Thank U for what U do. U grabbed me by my Primal parts and I've never been the same again. I will see you in Detroit Sept. 10th, 2022.
Can't wait!
💯
Amazing! Absolutely attending an open air event with this spiritual work of art!
I absolutely love Heilung!
I do have to say that this is the first time that I saw an "Asia" patch on a metalhead's jacket, though I can honestly say that my local FM station played an Asia tune during the lunch segment because "Nobody hears this much anymore." Serendipity.
Amazing comment! This patch is older than most of our fans 😛
What a fantastic band.. can't wait to see them live in Ireland some time in the near future.. !!
As a Mexican American this music to me his very HARD! I LOVE IT ! I can't wait to be at one of their shows!
Awesome! This will tour here again soon!
♥️Maria♥️ and to all involved #HailODIN
Skål!!
What a great interview with such amazing people! I’ve only found them a couple months ago and am in such love with all they do! Seeing this for myself will be a great point in my life. I can’t wait!
Every song is a ritual, every voice is a call, every resonance permeates the soul. A call to action. Honor the old ways and seek harmony. This is what Heilung means to me.
Thanks for sharing! That was awesome!
I love this! This combines three or my favorite things music, culture, history . Thank you 💓
Thank you so much for such a great interview. I love Heilung´s music and I can say that I agree and I feel all they say and I resonate with it. To me there are several types of music and artist. Some touches just my ear, some touches my heart and some touches my soul. Only few musicians could merge and penetrate into all my being and even further and deeply into my soul. Heilung is one of the few and thank you from the bottom of my heart for creating such mesmerizing and beautiful music and all the ritual concept ♥
Thank you kindly for these words!
Weird as it may sound, this is kind of like certain types of electronic music gathering. But you're not restricted to be just as a spectator you are a part of it. Im all too familiar with this type of stuff and I really really really like this. I recently discovered heilung and I am very happy to know that this is something that I'm very familiar with. I will definitely be going to the ritual in Los Angeles this year I'm going to try to get ground level so I have that open space.
I literally felt like I was there when I was watching the recorded stream I felt completely connected to the entire ritual.
I just love Heilung. I'm happy to be part of your community and enjoy your music.
These guys are the explanation to why Europe has so many awesome metal bands per Capita. Despite changes in religion/govts, the deeper culture and practices stay on.
Exactly!
These aren't my people, but I want to be their people. Goddamn inspiring stuff. I've been heavy into them in the last 12 months......stumbling on their music in a game trailer and finding out what the hell I'd just heard. Can't get enough of them even now.
Us too! Once you see them in person, it changes you!
Was at the Maryland ritual and it was incredible. Would love to see Heilung in Tennessee. I don't know the names but there are 2 caves that have concerts. Would be perfect.
I predict in the future concert venues won't be able to contain the rituals. Nature will be the way...
@@GhostCultMag I agree!
Primal is the perfect way to explain this, this art / virtual brings the primal nature of the human species out within us. I sure as heck felt that. When they mentioned trance like state when it comes to listening to that music I am almost certain they also feel the same thing when they're performing, I can see it with the way that they use the instruments they get into that rhythm it's such a specific way almost like they're not trying, but they really are just completely one with the music making it look effortless and thats when you know they are diving deep. I'm obsessed with music that gets me into trance/meditative like state.
It's interesting how the more 'technological' our species has become, there is also a curious hunger(?), I'm not sure what word to use, for a simpler, less technological lifestyle, and one in much closer connection with Nature. I'm not sure I would want to go back to Neolithic times, but the nostalgia for it, for a growing number, is strong. Maybe (this is just speculation) the realization that humans are now capable of disrupting the 'natural' course of Nature and the global environment itself, is a big motivator for why artistic expressions like this are so appealing? I don't know. But their work is undoubtedly energizing.
Heilung has been my new favorite for the last two months. Very impressive talent. Thank you for the new awakening.
Love them they’re so chill and personable. Been listening every day and hope to be a part of a ritual sometime. 🙌🏼🤘🏼
You hit it right on the head. They were immediately friendly and appreciative to do the interview.
Pagan belief has it that anyone who uses their own hands to make a useful object whether it be a music instrument or a flint point or a tattoo or a song , there is a bit of your own magic your own essence is in that object ... Heilung Forever !
I'm a metal fan and that's how I also got to know about Heilung. While I don't like masses, which kept me from going to Wacken for example, I would love to experience this live. I still remember the swearing-in ceremony in my army time and the marching band with a giant drum moving past me. Every beat of the drum I felt in my chest and heart. Must simply feel amazing with all the drums Heilung uses and of cause the resonating voices and chants.
Hopefully they will do live rituals again and you won't need to go to a major festival to see them.
Literally, banging different types of angled rocks to larger boulders on the ground shaped differently to create melodic percussion, and water reeds with holes as wind instruments are thought to be the oldest of instruments
They bring the true primal spirit out of us to this ritual.
Can’t absorb enough of their energy
I feel that very much!
They radiate an air of calmness I think they even had an effect on the interviewer cuz at first he seemed really nervous and was checking himself a lot and by like a third of the way through he seems a lot calmer
True. Keefy had just gotten over covid-19, too.
I love these guys the band is amazing.
Saaaaaaaaaaaame \m/ \m/
I've always found Heilung's music really interesting, but it was more interesting to hear them talk about how it isn't a show, it's a ritual, and that it's something they've been living every day for years. Which leads me to wonder whether or not they identify with any particular organized religion. How do they identify themselves spiritually when asked? I've seen/heard their opening ritual, recognizing the one creator who was there before humans came and named it, which makes me wonder how they refer to it. And I'm pleasantly surprised to hear that they've received such a warm reception here in the U.S., where Judeo-Christian theology predominates and people are quite often hostile to this kind of event.
They were also surprised and and then again not shocked at some of the more puritanical cities they went to on the East Coast.
Someday, my kids will allow me and be old enough to let me see there show 😅 I'm a huge fan of there art - and its an huge inspiration for my personal style. Thank you Heilung
I hope so too! \m/ \m/
When I first seen videos of these guys live I was at first confused, I didn't know what to make of it but I was instantly drawn to their music. I don't understand a single word spoken in any of their songs but I would love to see them live in Michigan one day. They really need to do a tour visiting more than just a couple of states. I know they may not be that big or have a huge fallowing over here, but their concerts look amazing.
Thank you Hielung for your talent and incredibly beautiful sounds, your new song Anaona, so feminine and primal maybe because I work around animals, horse wispering especially but other animals, cat and dogs, steers, I understand these creatures, many ways they are better beings than we humans are
Thanks for watching!
Thank you brothers and sisters!
I first heard of this band from the hellblade trailer, and I had chills from the top of my head to my ancles, I got obsessed, and now, after binge listening to this amazing band, I just want to part take in their rituals while on shrooms and paint in my face, I have never been this captivated by a band before, not even my favourite band, in flames, managed to captivate me on THIS level
A year postponed, but I found this interview after that special open air concert that Chris was teasing at 20:19 ;) I hope you were able to get to it as well, because that show will absolutely go down as one of the most incredible experiences I'll have. Technical-issues and all
I would have killed to get to Red Rocks! Hoping they come back some day!
1. Fun Fun Fun Festival in Austin is outdoors... (assuming it is still around)
2. If you like ritual muzik check out AMF - Aesthetic Meat Front/Foundation
3. Hopefully next tour they can make it further south!
They have their eyes set on many outdoor to make their dream a reality. Hopefully, Red Rocks can happen.
LOVE these guys - i hope they come to FNQ Australia.
I hope they come back to California to play. I have to attend their ritual!
Yasssss! They are planning future US rituals! \m/ \m/
@@GhostCultMag awesome!!
I am planning on going to their next one☺️
They will be playing at Red Rocks in Colorado next year. I will be flying from San Diego to see them!
I have to say this made my day- hearing them talk . ty . Heilung works. listen. Heal.
Imparting an essence of yourself to an instrument you would use to express. Wow. This is a wise band. Calling a concert a ritual. Thinking about that, I think all concert that has been performed is a ritual, unbeknownst to the crowd and/or the performers.
Great thoughts! Thanks for sharing!
Great interview! To me it's no surprise that metalheads get Heilung. What's cool is that so many other people do as well. Maybe metalheads understand the power, beauty and intimidation of nature that the general plastic pop, urban Hip Hop or EDM fans don't. I know Heilung is not just a band but I literally think they are the most important band in the world. I think Joe Strummer might agree.
We had a recent interview with Slim Jim Phantom of the Stray Cats who totally went off on a bunch of Joe Strummer stories. Check it out! anchor.fm/ghostcultmag/episodes/PODCAST-Episode-158-Slim-Jim-Phantom-The-Stray-Cats--The-Head-Cat--Joe-Strummer---The-Ghost-Cult-Interview-e1hhan0/a-a7pvljp
she flinged with her eyes when he said we are lucky we have them, we are, there is nothing like them, they are gathered by fate and we are blessed by theyre work.
Their.
@@GhostCultMag xD thank you (y)
I did not even know they came to the US.
This is fantastic..great vest..the REAL deal.
Glad you like it \m/ \m/
Wow, These People are Cool. Thank You & Bless You All With Unconditional Love & Light Energy!!!! Cheers!!!!
This group popped up in my recommended after watching a few Trobe de Morte” videos.. and they are by far my new favorite mood... with roots in Germany, Scotland and Norway this makes me feel alive, like my soul has been missing something and finally found it🖤
This music of the ritual is spiritual that’s way it’s so moving to the core of my spirt
I attended a Ritual in Stuttgart on 14/12/22 . I was mentally blown away. The intensity & the rithyms really entranced me. At times t he lighting brought me back only to go back into another unpronounceable trip.
I can't wait for my first ritual later this year!
Please come to Greece
Please come to Australia, I would feel so blessed to be part of your ritual.
Absolutely love Heilung group!
Us too! So amazing!
Im so proud to be alive to beable to have Heilung as an experience I get to take part in!! Ticket for december!
Awesome! Rituals are coming back!
one of the best interviews
Much appreciated!!
Its naturalistic tribal and primal experience where you connect through the ritual to the natural world around us and its a shame this doesn't happen organically much anymore
One word that is not being used for this experience is "ecstatic".
100%
wish I could of went to one of the shows
I wish you could have gone too. It was beautiful. I don't like crowds of people...but standing in the middle of the crowd, I felt peaceful, content!!
This dude was not ready for Heilung. He's just now starting to understand what it's all about.
Aren't we all always starting to understand something???
When I listen to the Futhark chant in the song In Maidjan, I imagine myself among the Cheruski preparing to consecrate Teutoberg forest with Roman blood
