A Nova Scotian kindred of the Elder Troth

Falla fossar,
flýgur örn yfir,
sá er á fjalli
fiska veiðir.



You have reached the home page for our Halifax, NS, kindred of the Ring of Troth, called Fiskiörn Kindred for the bird pictured above. (If you're using a text browser that doesn't read special characters, that word can also be written as "fiskioern".)

Contact people currently are our gyðja, who is sometimes known as Katla, Shane, and Francine. Information can be had from Little Mysteries Books, Barrington Street: ask the store owner about us. You can also send email to ip-ERCE@chebucto.ns.ca, and it will reach us.

As a Kindred, we conduct the seasonal blessings and work to increase our knowledge of the practices, religious beliefs and mythology of prechristian Northern Europe. We have recently completed a series of workshops on Runes of the Elder Futhark at Little Mysteries Books, one per month. We are investigating seiðr, and run seiðr sessions open to the general public (see "kindred events" for details). For more information on runes, rune readings, rune magic or rune workshops, seiðr sessions, or seiðr workshops, Norse cosmology and ritual practice, please contact us.

    [Seal - The Troth] HSPACE=The Troth is an international organization of Ásatrú followers. Its practices and philosophies are explicitly anti-racist, anti-homophobic, non-sexist. It has members in Canada, the US, and elsewhere and is associated with other Heathen organizations in Britain, Scandinavia, North America, Ireland, Australia... Its annual meeting, Trothmoot, attracts members of many non-affiliated kindreds within North America, as well as guests from overseas. Details of Trothmoot 98 available from Troth website, or from gydhja"at"hfx.andara.com.
