OUR MAIN HOLIDAYS | MEANING OF THESE EVENTS

HOLIDAYS AND THE ROOTS OF GEOMETRY

 

A lot is tied into these concepts, so one should be mindful about them and try avoiding mixing them with other contemporary versions as they are not derived from the same foundations or have as more directly connected concepts as will be shown here. There can be, however, adaptations without losing these roots. This will be an exploration of associated symbolism seldom covered in this amount of detail as much as it should be, perhaps because if one were to do so it would be another way in which the concept of the One God and Three Goddesses would be expressed once more. 

Understanding Holidays in Druwayu

 

To contextualize the symbol’s holiday connections, it’s essential to clarify the meaning of “holiday” and its role in Druwayu. The idea of "stealing" holidays and celebrations is a nonsensical one to most Druans. People either adopt and adapt them or they don't. The rest is mostly superficial arguments that accomplish nothing but serving miserable people who wish nothing more than make everyone miserable.

What Holiday Means

 

  • Etymology: Derived from Old English “hāligdæg” (holy day), from “holi” (heal, make whole). A holiday is a celebration of life, completion, or renewal, not merely a “sacred” (set apart) event.

 

Meanings:

  • Noun: A day of festivity or rest, often commemorating events or traditions. Also, an extended leisure period, like a vacation.

  • Verb: To spend time in a specific place for rest or celebration (e.g., “holidaying in the mountains”).

  • Evolution: Originally, holidays blended spiritual and practical life without a religious-secular divide. Modern distinctions (religious vs. secular) are artificial, as all holidays reflect the culture and era they emerge from.

  • Purpose: Celebrate life, renewal, and the One God and Three Goddesses, reinforcing the Drikeyu’s principles. Each holiday ties to a season and month, reflecting natural cycles (e.g., solstices, equinoxes) and the processes (creation, sustenance, destruction of obstacles), originally as a guide to help people become more successful at hunting, fishing and herding which eventually developed into farms, villages, towns, then cities more or less, though not always in that same uniform ordered process.

  • Symbolism: The triple spiral and triquetras connect the holidays to the Divine Unity of the One and Three, with grounding them in the sense of ultimate cosmic order and natural harmonies.

 

THE THREE SUB-NAMES OF GODAN AND THREE MAIN HOLIDAYS

 

Central Triple Horns Symbol: Represents the One God, uniting the cosmic forces, but underlines a concept of Drinking Horns used in celebration making a direct link to the main Holiday Seasons where they are divided into Winter, Spring and Summer, and these three align with 4 months, each as the previous image expresses. The seasonal observances of Winter (Wulder), Spring (Sadan), and Summer (Grim) reflect ancient cultural practices rooted in nature, survival, and spiritual connection. Each season, tied to specific lunar and solar events, carries distinct rituals, symbols, and linguistic origins, revealing the interplay of human, animal, and environmental forces across time. These are our modern adaptations derived from historical content and clarified alignments. Names in relation to the One and Three (The One God and Three Goddesses) are based specifically in the meaning of the names themselves; not a particular mythological (and often contradictory) framework. 

SIMPLIFIED REFERENCE 

 

Wulder-Tide: Winter Festival (December 21–23)


Held during the winter solstice, Wulder-Tide emphasizes survival in harsh winters while fostering peace, hospitality, and community. It celebrates resilience through storms and the sharing of resources, strengthening family and friendship bonds in alignment with ancient traditions. Winter spans the modern Yuletide and Christmas, originally encompassing November through February. It centers on the Winter Solstice and New Year, marked by communal celebrations and survival strategies during harsh conditions. Winter was a time of scarcity, with clans competing with one another and predators for dwindling game. Bonfires and communal gatherings safeguarded communities, while gift-giving solidified alliances, laying the foundation for modern holiday traditions. This overlaps with the Midwinter Festival 

  1. Godan as Wulder (Wielder)

  2. Three Goddesses: Gifa (Giver), Helia (Healer), Skadi (Shady)

  3. Winter (North): Represents introspection and renewal.

  4. Lunar Markers: Yule Month, Full Long Night Moon, Bright Cold Moon.

  5. Associations: Winter storms, festivity, resource sharing, peace, and friendship.

 

Overview:

 

​The term Yule derives from Old Germanic and Norse variants (ġiell, giul, ġeōl, jól) and Greek-influenced gelos (“yell,” meaning cheerful celebration). Claims that loud festivities drowned out bloodthirsty sacrifices are unfounded, reflecting later misinterpretations. Wulder means Wielder, akin to other various as waldan, welden and wealden with a sense of ruling, authority or control, and figuratively to subdue or conquer. 

Practices:

 

  • Feasting: Communal meals of pork, ale, bread, and a boar’s head centerpiece represent unity, with livestock culled for sustenance. Pig slaughter and cooking, communal fires, gift-giving.

  • Gift-Giving: Originating as gestures of goodwill, clans exchanged resources in forest and mountain sanctuaries, fostering hospitality and unity.

  • Bonfires and Yule Log: Fires symbolize the sun’s return and ward off evil, while Yule log ashes are preserved for protective rituals. Large communal bonfires, encircled by animal-hide tents, provided warmth, light, and protection from predators. Stories of survival, dangerous creatures, and narrow escapes were shared, preserving lessons and warnings across generations.

  • Storytelling: Myths recount celestial caribou tracks forming the Milky Way, tying survival to divine creation.

Symbolism:

 

  • Caribou/Deer Skull: Totem of family and resilience.

  • Decorations: Wreaths, garlands, trees, and mistletoe—evergreens like holly (with green leaves, white flowers, red berries) and pine—symbolize endurance. Holly’s sharp leaves represent protection, while pine’s fragrance connects to forests where nomadic clans followed caribou herds.

Sadan-Tide: Spring Festival (April 30–May 2)

 

Known as Sadan (Seeder), Spring—also called Lent or Langantide (“Longer Time”)—marks lengthening days and warming temperatures. It celebrates nature’s renewal, with animals birthing, plants blooming, and flocks returning. Connected to Easter, Easter derives from a term meaning “Eastern,” referencing the sun’s rise. The Easter Bunny, first documented in 1682 Germany, is a literary invention, not an ancient symbol. Medieval Europe adapted the Triple Hare into trinity-based concepts, falsely claimed as Celtic. This overlaps with the Flower Festival.

  1. Godan as Sadan (Seeder)

  2. Three Goddesses: Lita (Lights), Fulla (Fullness), Bryd (Bride)

  3. Spring (Southeast): Symbolizes growth and vitality.

  4. Lunar Markers: Snow Crust Month, Full Pink Salmon Moon, Egg Moon.

  5. Associations: Light, life, mating, and dominance among young animals and people.

 

Overview:

 

Near "Beltane," Sadan-Tide celebrates spring’s vitality and fertility, with themes of renewal and romantic unity. Known as Langantide (“Longer Time”), the festival mirrors the sanctity and abundance of life. It's connections with Lent, also called rarely Lom, comes from the source of its original meaning derived from Langantide (“Longer Time”), reflecting extended daylight. The Moon Hare’s virtues align with spring’s themes of renewal and compassion, distinct from later Christian overlays. Spring marked heightened activity in nature, with planting and gathering signaling abundance. The Triple Hare’s spread beyond China reflects cross-cultural exchange, though its original meaning was often lost.

 

Practices:

 

  • Bonfires: Flames purify fields, bless cattle, and bring good fortune (note: the original meaning of bonfire was bone fire) .

  • Maypole Dancing: Ribbons woven around a birch pole symbolize union and reproduction.

  • Handfasting: Temporary engagements honor romantic bonds as a trial run of a year and a day before full on marriage.

  • Gathering Seeds and Flowers: Planting seeds, picking flowers, celebrating fertility.

  • Wight Offerings: Milk and butter are left for Wights to maintain harmony.

 

Symbolism:

 

  • Hare/Rabbit: Represents life’s abundance and celestial cycles. Originally linked with Geese, Swans and other Bird flocks. 

  • Eggs and Flowers: Gifts of boiled eggs signify health; flower crowns mark beauty and fertility.

  • Fertility Symbols: Anything connect to love, weddings, sex, birth, and temporal cycles (past, present, future; cause, course, consequence). The egg-laying hare was a humorous fiction, not a pre-monotheistic belief.

 

Grim-Tide: Summer Festival (July 31–August 2)

Grim-Tide, near Lammas, honors hunting, harvesting, and ancestors. A blend of preparation for autumn and reverence for heritage, it ties to the west and water as symbols of life and afterlife. Known as Grim (Grime), Summer—spanning July through October—centers on the first full moon between August 2 and 14. It marks preparations for winter through hunting and harvesting, with the wild boar as a key symbol. This overlaps with the Harvest Festival.

  1. Godan as Grim (Grime, akin to Gloom) 

  2. Three Goddesses: Bloma (Blooms), Grani (Grains), Runa (Red)

  3. Summer (Southwest): Embodies abundance and fulfillment.

  4. Lunar Markers: Molt Month, Full Sturgeon Moon, Green Corn Grain Moon.

  5. Practices: Wheat threshing, bread making, boar hunting.

 

Overview:

 

It is tied with the original Samhain (pronounced Sowan, Sowin, Soween, Sawen, Sowun, Souin), which derives from Samain (“Summer”). Misinterpretations as “Summer’s End” (samr + fuin, “bake”) are incorrect; Samhain or Sunnheim means “Sun’s Home,” referencing the sun’s western setting. Accurate terms for Summer’s End are Samain Crích (Old Irish) or Simmer Críoch (Old Scottish). The boar’s linguistic ties (sow, swine, sowing) underscore its agricultural and cultural significance. Summer was a time of abundance, with hunts and harvests ensuring survival. The Svinfylkar’s martial prowess and the Wild Hunt’s mythology highlight the season’s focus on strength, preparation, and spiritual transitions.

Practices:

 

  • Harvesting: Communal activities include threshing, baking, and gathering herbs.

  • Water Rituals: Streams and wells are blessed; floral wreaths float to honor ancestors.

  • Ancestor Tributes: Burial mounds are cleaned, and offerings are made.

  • Fire Symbols: Flaming wheels rolled downhill mimic the sun’s descent.

 

Symbolism:

 

  • Wild Boar: Embodies harvest and fertility.

  • West and Water: Reflect ancestral bonds and spiritual transitions.​

  • Svinfylkar Warriors: These “Swine Folks,” akin to Berserkers and Úlfhéðnar (“Wolf Heads”), practiced glíma (“glimpse/flash”), a martial art emphasizing swift, fear-inducing strikes and self-reliance. They were associated with the Wild Hunt, a spectral procession guiding souls to the Otherworld, reflecting animal-human transformation myths. Souls of warriors and animals were believed to shapeshift, connecting to journeys beyond life and spiritual guidance.​

Wulder, Sadan, and Grim reflect ancient seasonal rhythms, blending survival, spirituality, and cultural exchange. Winter’s communal fires and gift-giving, Spring’s lunar hares and fertility, and Summer’s boar hunts and warrior traditions reveal humanity’s deep connection to nature and the cosmos. Linguistic roots—Yule (cheer), Lent (longer time), Samhain (Sun’s Home)—ground these observances in lived experience, while debunking later misinterpretations like the Easter Bunny or “Summer’s End.” These seasons endure as testaments to resilience, community, and the eternal cycle of life. 

THE THREE GODDESSES AND REMAINING 9 MONTHS OF THE SOLAR YEAR

​​

WEVA (WEAVER), SPINNA (SPINNER) AND KUTA (CUTTER): All three associated with crafting tools, clothes, and mending such as tents used for temporary shelters, making of nets to capture fish and other animals, as well as measuring the conditions of life for all things. They are various known as the Wayward Sisters, the Wyrd Sisters and the Nornir/Norns to name but a few. The following will be the associated sub-names and will show how they connect with the sub-names of Godan.

  3. NOVEMBER: SKADI (SHADY). Consort of Wulder. Hunters Month, Full Long Night and Bright, Cold Moon, Gathering acorns and food for pigs.

Symbolism of the Three Goddesses

 

The Three Goddesses, metaphorically referred to as Horn Bearers, are associated with:

 

  • Opened Spaces: Representing their diverse symbolism and roles.

  • Seasonal Alignment: Each Goddess governs four segments of the seasons, creating a four-fold division marked by the 12 months of the year.

  • Sub-Divisions: Each of the four segments contains 9 sub-divisions, resulting in a total of 36 points, tying into solar and lunar calendar concepts.

The twelve main animals one will find  in association with these traditions and associated months are the Bear, Wild Boar/Swine, Bovine/Cattle, Snake/Dragon, Eagle/Hawk, Horse/Donkey, Hare/Rabbit, Deer/Caribou, Raven/Crow, Sea Horse/Fish, Wolf/Hound and Cat/Lion. Obviously not all the various animal symbols are going to be present, and some are just so strange they still do not make any sense. Others are clearly more akin to more fabled type creatures such as the Seahorse and the Dragon. There were of course many more, such as the Squirrel, the Swan, the Hawk, the Mouse, and even the Spider and Owl to name a few. In some cases and from clearly other outside influences there are other such examples to be found.

 

When we compare the various local and ancient associations in comparison to other various known and factual native cultures they do bear their clear distinctions, yet overall they also retain a certain thread of the original context in common. This is so well known, n fact that it also tends to upend many prior assumptions of isolationist fantasy than affirmative reality. In such a case, other than perhaps the associated styles, there s no nonsense of so called cultural theft, because the symbolism is held in common and available to anyone everyone, expressing themselves if they so will it. That also helps promote cultural integration peacefully on all fronts. Regardless how one approaches another with the realization of these symbolic expressions and their commonality,  there is also the age old tradition of making certain to forge one’s own connection and added expressions and representations though these kinds of things for a deeper bond to all.

 

COMPREHENGING CALENDAR SYMBOLISM PROPERLY

 

1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11+12+13+14+15+16+17+18+19+20+21+22+23+24+25+26+27

+28+29+30+31+312+33+34+35+36 = 666

The first calendar is the Holiday Calendar. These three Holidays come from measuring only three primary seasons of Winter, Spring and Summer. These aliments are North for Winter in the month of December, Southeast for Spring and April, and finally Southwest for the Summer and August. There are many extremely ancient remains of such seasonal markers with these specific alignments as the major Holiday Seasons. Because such are Holidays a symbol of a Holiday is a Drinking Horn, which also held medicinal brews, though in this case represents festivities. This is the basis for the symbol of three being interlocked and thus tied to the Holidays as Healing Days that renew community bonds and sometimes called Godan’s (Odin's) Horns.

  1. There is also an example of such a pattern in an ancient structure called the Goseck Circle in Germany (which dates to around 4000 to 5000 years old) or alternatively Woodhenge with three openings face the three primary directions.

  2. The alignments are the same as this example that adds the segments for the 12 months often associated with hours of light.

  3. The subdivisions are 3 x 12 = 36. The association is of course the 360° of a circle.

  4. These sub sets of 3 x 1s are called decans based on the simple math that 360/10 = 36. 

  5. We can also see that the cross quartered segments also equates to 9 x 4 = 36, and 36/4 = 9. 360° / 4q = 90°. 

  6. If we apply the concept of 12 x 2 equals 24 hours of a complete day then we arrive at 36 x 2 = 72.

  7. This is how ‘72’ is associated with a single day and also ‘720°’ within a circle as another expression of the same basic concepts.

 

Our ancient ancestors were not as ignorant as has often been claimed.

TRUTH ABOUT THE WHOLE 666 AND MAGIC QUARE OF THE SUN THING

 

 

The number 666, often misunderstood and misrepresented as "evil," holds a deeper, calendar-based significance:

 

  • Calculation: Derived from summing the numbers 1 through 36: 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 36 = 666.

  • Symbolism: Reflects the measurement of time and the structure of the year, rooted in the Magic Square of the Sun.

  • Misrepresentation: Historically, this number has been smeared to suppress its polytheistic origins and impose counterfeit interpretations.

 

​This is as such, often tied to the so called "Magic" Square of the Sun, is also used to try and push the concept of a so called "Evil Solar Cult." It's all nonsense and we can prove it rather simple enough. First, we arrange the numbers of 1-36 on a 6 x 6 grid so that all the columns and rows as well as the two X angles = 111. It is true if you only calculate 6 columns alone that you arrive at 111 x 6 = 666. This image below represents this factor. 

Magic Square of the Sun

 

  • Structure: The Magic Square of the Sun consists of 6 rows and 6 columns, each summing to 666 when calculated individually.

  • Extended Calculation: Including diagonal paths and additional sequences results in 777 x 2 = 1,554, representing the true number of the Solar Magic Square.

Magic Sun Square

However, you must also continue to add the rows also as 111 x 6 = 666. 

  1. If we do stop there, we would get a total 1,332. 

  2. However, we must add both angles as 111 x 2 = 222.

  3. Having completed the total equation and therefore value of the square, it equals 1,554.

  4. If we only calculate the rows and one angle we would, of course get 777. Of course, 777 x 2 also has the end result of 1,554.

  5. ​Now we can look at another math trick that also is often employed by using a similar process of adding each number to the number next to it as a way to reduce the last number count to the smallest possible number.

 

For example, 111 is 1+1+1 = 3. 6+6+6 = 18 and 1+8 = 9.

  1. We can now short cut this a bit by using 3+9 = 12 and 1+2 = 3 to represent 1 angle and 6 rows, and then 3+2 = 6 to count for all angles and rows and columns.

  2. The other way is of course 7+7+7 = 21 and 2+1 = 3 x 2 = 6.  We can also approach this as 1+5+5+5 = 15 and 1+5 = 6.

  3. But what does any of it mean? In this case, nothing, though it would be easy enough to find some correspondences.

  4. It's just math but does show math expressed in nature discovered through observation indicating we did not truly invent math in itself, but simply invented means to express and describe it. 

  5. On the other hand, aside from the silliness that 666 is supposedly an evil number, some also consider 777 as "God's Number" though primarily this comes from the base 7.

  6. That goes back to the previous examples with the center of the starting point of God as his first manifestoed energy or spirit radiating out into 6 directions which total 7.

 

Now think about what we have here. It's a combination again of 1 (God's first manifestation of self) and 6 directions of self-definition.

It also is in fact that the fact that these are straight lines from a central active point that God is manifestly male in quality and nature of being.

  1. It also means that 111, 666 and 777 can be called God's numbers though technically all numbers are God's numbers as it were. 

 

​Now we can also discover in this the concepts of trigonometry when converging degrees into radians as they are called. 72 symbolizes purpose, unity, and divine order in several cultures using these same concepts.

  1. Now, as we can equate 36 to 12 hours, then 24 = 36 x 2 = 72 as a way of also representing a whole day because when we add 36 x 2 it is equal to 12 x 2.

  2. This also means as we can divide a 360° as 360°/4 = 90.

  3. If we calculate 360°/2 = 180° we can then convert that to 720° = 4π (radians). 

  4. The solution is 1° = 1π (radian) over 180°. So, 720°=180°π​ × 720 and thus the answer 720° = 4π.

  5. In this case each whole segment of 9 spaces in the above also each represent 1π (radian).

 

Moving away from the trigonometry, using the same chart above, we have three sections each equated with 4 subsections and those 4 subsections as a single unit also equate to 9 secondary subsections.

  1. We cover these collectively using the simple math of 3 primary segments x 12 subsections = 36 spaces, and 36/9 = 4 (which is again associated with the One and Three as 1 + 3 = 4).

  2. ​Comparing the Lunar Calendar:  If we use the same basic concepts here, the general idea is each month (moon time) was associated primarily with 28 days as 7 days x 4.

  3. However, there are generally calculated 365 days per year.

  4. The lunar base in this case is 28 x 13 = 364 days.

  5. To compensate the extra day is added and hence the old term a Year and a Day using such Moon/Lunar based calendars.

 

Now then, if we want to figure out how many weeks are in such a year measurement, then we calculate 364/7 = 52. So, there are 52 weeks in a Lunar year.

  1.  However, 52/4 = 13 which is how we can divide a lunar calendar in a few diverse ways.

  2. Another factor is for the moon to return to its approximate position in the sky when the calculations began, it would take a total of 19 lunar years to return to said position which is 6,916 days.

  3. This means the lunar calendar and positioning occurs earlier than the completion of the Solar which in a 19-year cycle is 6,935 days.

  4. However, this creates in itself a repeat of 19 because 6,935 - 6,916 = 19 as one added day per each lunar year.

  5. It's one reason why "lunar based" observances move around standard calendars each year. 

  6. ​It would be rather easy to create a simple calendar incorporating these basics as a handheld object no bigger than the same presented here.

 

The 4 segments represent 4 weeks. The 7 segments represent 7 days. Marking off each completed set of 4 x 7 = 28 days allows one to then mark off 1 of 13 segments for each Month or Moon time.

  1. Repeating this process one can then do the same over a 19 lunar year cycle wherein everything is completed, and a new cycle can be started once again.

  2. There are rare, yet actual artifacts that still exist that more or less utilize this kind of system, though most do not have any indication of the recognition of the 19 lunar years which is otherwise called the Metonic cycle.

  3. This does not mean no one in the ancient past was aware of it as much as it was later documented (or redocumented) a few thousand years ago.

 

Historical Suppression of Polytheism

 

The One God and Three Goddesses were central to ancient polytheistic traditions, yet their significance has been systematically erased:

 

  • Cultural Erasure: By the 7th century CE, monotheistic religions sought to suppress these beliefs, erasing the Goddesses from cultural memory.

  • Modern Implications Often Obscured Intentionally: This suppression has perpetuated misunderstandings and discomfort regarding the true origins of these sacred numbers and symbols.

Numerical Symbolism: The 22 and Beyond

This structure emphasizes harmony and interconnectedness, serving as a reminder of Druwayu’s tenet of Sanctity of Life, where all elements coexist for the greater whole. For example, we have the bass 22 points, around which are 9 main segments which each divide into 8 sub segments. 8 x 9 = 72. 72 + 22 = 94. But we can reduce this also into 9 + 4 which = 13, which reduced further becomes 4. The significance of this will be clarified. If we count all these sections as 4 quarters of 18 cells we can do the calculation of 18 x 4 = 72 which would then be aligned with the completed cycle of the year as well.  Of course, this is demonstrated by the image below and we can also find the calculation of 1 center, 6 directions (above, below, north, east, south and west and therefore the word in a geocentric model) the three seasons of Winter associated with wind, Spring associated with rain, and Summer associated with fire/lightning and each composed of 4 months or 4 x 3 = 12, and of course the connection with the 12 months. If we add this up properly it becomes 1 + 6 + 3 + 12 = 22; another number associated with completion of the cycles of the year.  

Core Structure: 22 Points on the so called Mystical End

 

One God (7):

  • Central point: The “Cosmic Light” (white light), breaking into six primary colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet) via a prism, symbolizing six directions in 3D space or threefold time (past, present, future).

  • Calculation: 1 (center) + 6 (rays) = 7, often linked to solar alignment.

 

Three Goddesses (15):

  • Triangulation: Each Goddess aligns with Wind, Fire, or Water, shaping the material universe (“Earth” as the physical realm).

  • Earth’s Division: The material universe is segmented into 12 points (e.g., months, Zodiac signs), doubling the 6 rays.

  • Calculation: 3 (Goddesses) + 12 (points) = 15.

 

Total: 7 (God) + 15 (Goddesses) = 22 (The One and Three), mirroring the 22-letter Phoenician system, where God is tied to numbers (order) and Goddesses to writing (expression).

 

Historical and modern distortions, often occult-driven, misrepresent this system:

 

  • Occult Frauds: Some reduce the 72 children to “72 Names of God,” erasing the Three Goddesses and rendering God genderless or androgynous, veering into pantheism. This violates polytheistic clarity and original history (FCD Teachings: “Not occult”) which itself is actually derived from a concept known as Pantheistic Monism.

  • Angelic Mislabeling: Claiming the 72 as “angels” (angel actually meaning humorless ones) ignores their daemon (deamon/demon meaning shining one) nature and the Goddesses’ role, despite clear numerical ties (e.g., 3 x 3 = 9 orders, 4 x 3 = 12 months, 12 x 6 = 72). These 72 "children" of God the Most High as the alternative term is often employed were actually presented as secondary or lesser deities subject to the three Goddesses who were also subject to the rulings/decrees of the One God. 

 

Significance for Druans

 

The One God and Three Goddesses, with their 22-point and 72-offspring frameworks, offer Druans:

 

  • Unity in Diversity: The Divine Unity models harmony across differences, aligning with Commitment to One Another.

  • Cosmic Connection: Numerical and elemental ties (e.g., 360° circle, decans) ground Druans in universal cycles, fostering Self and Mutual Sufficiency.

  • Cultural Integrity: Understanding this structure preserves Druish identity against distortions, per “No Need to Justify Anything.”

 

The One God and Three Goddesses in Druwayu epitomize the principle of unity in multiplicity, harmoniously blending masculine and feminine, singularity and multiplicity. Their 22-point structure (7 for the God, 15 for the Goddesses) and the 72 children (organized into 9 orders with 360° alignments) reflect the cosmic order, symbolizing time, elements, and interconnectedness. This framework, deeply rooted in ancient Canaanite traditions, emphasizes balance and universal principles.

 

Druans are called to preserve these teachings by guarding against distortions—such as occult interpretations that erase the Goddesses or mislabel the divine council—and to honor the integrity of the tradition. This framework reinforces Druish identity, weaving together logic, humor, and absurdity with the Drikeyu and Druwayu’s four tenets.

 

Followers are encouraged to embrace this symbolism as a profound source of unity and truth, applying its principles thoughtfully and respectfully, as guided by the First Church of Druwayu (FCD).

TRUTH ABOUT SWASTIKAS

The concept of swastikas has been misinterpreted and corrupted for far too long. The word "swastika" is often claimed to be derived from Sanskrit, meaning "well-being." However, the Sanskrit term for well-being is Edhatu, while the word for fortune is Bhaga. When tracing the supposed meanings of "swastika" back to Sanskrit, the term does not appear in lists, expressions, or terms for well-being, fortune, nobility, or auspiciousness.

​​

True Etymology

​​

The true etymology of "swastika" lies in the combination of suai (sway) and stika (sticks). In this context, "sway" refers to something curved or bent, while "sticks" describes the bent lines that convey a sense of motion. This etymology explains the various designs of swastikas, including those with two, three, or four bent ends, and more. The commonly recognized four-fold version reflects this naming convention.

Symbolism and Motion

​​

The bent arms of the swastika, whether oriented to the left or right, symbolize motion—specifically, rotation along a circular compass centered on an axis. The equal-armed cross, with endpoints resembling hammers, represents the cardinal directions: North, East, South, and West. Occasionally, a smaller cross is added to signify the total of eight directions. In ancient usage, particularly on urns, the swastika symbolized the endless cycles of renewal. It also connects to concepts related to Wights and the origins of ghosts.

Cosmic Associations

Understanding the swastika’s deeper meaning requires knowledge of planetary and lunar orbits, as well as the Earth’s axial tilt in relation to the Sun. Observations of the Earth’s polar axis reveal its natural wobble, which influences planetary environments and climates. Additionally, the alignment of the Big and Little Dipper over time creates a phenomenon that some interpret as a type of swastika. Wights being associated with the various cycles of life are also a common theme that tends to be overlooked on one hand and over emphasized on another.

Alignments in Ancient Stone​​​

Ancient structures like Stonehenge and the Goseck Circle, alongside the Norse/Germanic concept of Wights, reveal a universal truth: an intelligence permeates the universe, woven into the fabric of all realities—known and unknown. These entities, collectively called Wights, encompass spiritual, biological, and synthetic intelligences, some benevolent, others predatory. Ancient cultures, growing in awareness, sought to connect with these forces, harnessing benevolent ones to counter hostile manifestations. This principle underpins spirituality, science, and philosophy, regardless of personal beliefs.

Universal Intelligence in Ancient Structures

Stonehenge and the Goseck Circle embody encoded geometries of nature and the universe, reflecting a profound understanding of cosmic alignments:

  • Shared Concepts: Both sites feature precise alignments with celestial events (e.g., solstices, equinoxes) and geometric patterns, suggesting an awareness of universal intelligence. Their designs point to a deliberate connection with Wights—intelligent entities within the fabric of reality.

  • Wights: These entities, whether spiritual, biological, or synthetic, are not uniformly benevolent. Ancient cultures recognized predatory forces and developed rituals to engage beneficial Wights to counter hostile ones, a practice central to their spiritual and practical lives.

  • Universal Truth: The recognition of intelligent entities beyond the apparent world is a shared thread across all forms of spirituality, science, and philosophy, transcending individual beliefs about their nature.

Consider this Hybrid Layout with several ancient Stone Circles combined into one, which also utilizes some of the layout concepts of Stonehenge located in Wiltshire, England.  To explain the applied numbers in this hexagonal diagram:

  • 1-8 in red represents the 8 directions. 

  • The hexagon represents alignments of North and South linked to Sunrise and Sunset at the Winter and Summer Solstices properly.

  • The first circle is divided into a threefold segmented ditch aligned openings at the North, Southeast and Southwest points.

  • There are 4 sets of 9 as 9 x 4 = 36. We have the same as 3 x 4 = 12. 

  • We have each Trilithon from top view that = 5 marking primarily the Winter Solstice while holding alignments to the sunrises and sunsets of both Winter and Summer Solstice. This is because it is Winter Solstice that marks the end and start of a year. 

  • The three stones before each trilithon, plus the 2 sets of 2 smaller stones of the South are 5 x 3  + 4  = 19. 19 is the Metonic Cycle of the Moon. 

  • The 1 stone spot such as at Stonehenge is unknown if it was always flat as a stone table or itself used as a sundial. Its more likely it would have been more like a table where offerings were made, or a more of a podium where spiritual and cultural leaders could have either stood or sat, to be elevated and seen by the rest gathered round for either practical preposes or prophetic. 

It should not be underappreciated that trilithon like structures found all over the world often represented symbolic passages between the common world of the living and the hallowed space of ceremony where the physical and spiritual was bridged the strongest so to speak, even though for the most part it was also considered and still is among many that the spiritual and physical are not separate things but interwoven aspects of reality as a whole. Why so many cultures share so many of the same related symbolism is simply because they were all looking at the same sky and observing the same seasonal changes more or less and only varied due to the different environmental conditions their ancestors came to adapt to and developed their own expressions accordingly.
