The Heathen Underground promotes heathenry in a way that we feel honors pre-Christian northern European beliefs & practices. We share information on heathen history, archaeology, literature, folklore and art, as well as comparative articles from across Europe and beyond.

Introducing Nehalennia, a goddess revered in the Netherlands in the (pre-)Roman period as protectress of travellers across the North Sea. The remains of a temple 🏛 and over 300 stone altars found on the seabed in the province of Zeeland attest to the popularity of her cult.

Take a few minutes and absorb everything here. The barriers & challenges, the massive importance of visibility, senior mentors and all-woman shared training spaces.
This kind of thing is what's needed to make #trowelblazing fields inclusive for all women.

Hel is the Norse goddess of the dead. She ruled over the underworld, Niflheim, where she received the dead. Her name means “one that hides.” In Norse mythology, Hel’s father was the trickster god Loki and her mother the giantess Angrboda. 1/2 #FolkloreThursday

Waking the Dead
"The mythology of Hel speaks of a journey that must be undertaken, a road that must be traveled by the dead that slopes 'downwards and northwards' and that passes over a river."
