I expected a short word of our chairman, since this is the last issue of this publication, but beside a short note in the inside of the cover, there is nothing. For several reasons (stated in earlier annoucements), the magazine will cease to be, but nothing is mentioned. Perhaps the opening article is telling. The articles of Herman Vanhove are usually humerous, this one is about someone who passed on… continue reading Traditie 2008/4

The opening article is a nice and lengthy article about the Yule celebrations and it… continue reading Heidens Jaarboek 2008
A while ago I got an email asking if the “Kith of Yggdrasil” could republish my “Asatru and Hinduism” article in their periodical. I had a look at their website (then still kithofyggdrasil.org I think), saw nothing I object to, so I said that I had no problems with that as long as I could have a copy of the issue. Well after the autumnal equinox I now get the… continue reading Sunwheel 16
The newest issue of Traditie magazine has reached me even before the autumnal equinox! The contents are as follows:

Next up is a look in the life and house of chairman Stefaan Van den Eynde and his girlfriend Heidi Lemmens. After that an article quite like this one of myself is published, followed by… continue reading Traditie 2008/3
