Description
The Northern Traditions Podcast is the official podcast of The Wisdom of Odin YouTube Channel. This podcast is meant to be a lighter take on the often heavy subject of Paganism, all while still discussing topics that we believe can help you on your own personal journey. We occasionally bring on guest to interview about their personal experiences, or what they are up to in the larger pagan community. Conversations meant for every level of practitioner.

With Ian and Jacob just coming back from Heilung, we decided to discuss how ritual practices continue to evolve and change.
This is the full interview based on the latest video on The Wisdom of Odin Youtube channel. I am joined by Mirjam and Anthony as I ask them questions on Shamanism and how to practice it in our modern day.

With the upcoming shamanism video, many people have asked about mentorship within pagan practices today. So today Caleb and I, discuss the complicated nature of establishing new mentors in beliefs that used to rely so heavily on them.
We have several topics to discuss today, including Estonian Paganism, Reputation and its importance, as well as gift giving. As always grab a warm or cold drink, and enjoy the conversation around various pagan subjects!

Ian had a dream, that dream was to host an episode and talk about spooky things. This episode is letting Ian live that dream.
We decided to have an interest talk today on whether or not heathenry is becoming too soft in this modern age. Has our fear of scrutiny, judgement, and harassment made us too scared to practice our faith more honestly? Check into this episode to hear our conversation on this very question.

Ian and Jacob discuss the difference of being pagan in the summer vs the winter. And how living by the seasonal cycles may benefit you now even in our modern age.
In this episode we talk about the modern obsession with DNA test, and ancestor websites and how they relate to paganism. We also talk about our own experiences discovering our ancestors and how we honor them today.
After our short break, we return with an episode on the differences between spirits. Specifically we are talking about North American spirits vs European, but we also discuss how different environments can effect spirituality.

Our three topics today include Jacob finally telling his mother about his job and religion. Caleb dealing with two children, working, and getting little sleep all while still trying to maintain his spirituality. And then Ian talking about different kinds of sacred (legal) plants.

We continue out three topics, talking today about three things that are good for those getting into the faith for the first time.
Our topics today include drinking culture in paganism, and around the world. How fitness can connect you in different ways with the faith. And daily routines that can help you maintain your faith when life gets busy.
We are changing our format a little on he podcast, we are now going to try and focus on several subjects throughout an episode to give you more variety in our content. So today we discuss our thoughts on Heilung's new album, as well as the differences between christian funerals and what we want pagan funerals to become.
Last year we recorded an episode called "The Wolf, The Raven, and The Bear: The Many Pathways of Odin." This episode is a follow-up showing how much our lives can change in a year, and what lessons we learn along the way no matter what path you take.
We bring back on Claire from 60 episodes ago to discuss what it has been like for her to be pagan while growing up in Europe. While sharing our experiences as Americans and what it has been like to practice in the "new world."
We bring back on Lauren to discuss the ever growing issue of internet Viking Bros, and wanna be shield maidens. We tackle both sides of the issue from the popularity of Viking media, to the importance of respect when getting interested in new topics.
