Interview by M. Hunter Yoder with our Gudja and brother Hoen Falker (Isaac Vazquez) for the Hex Factory, the original interview can be found here: http://www.thehexfactory.com/isaacvazquez.htmHere is the full interview:Isaac Vazquez I met Isaac Vazquez in 2008 on MySpace. I was attracted to his profile image that I later used in a Hex design that is hanging in The Hex Factory today. The fact that the entire Hex is composed of Runes really impressed me. From the pictures of his Kindred in Mexico in ritual I concluded that they are some of the hardest core Folkish Heathens around.anywhere. They had the look of a South American Indigenous Shaman's alter only Germanic Heathen. Quite a pagan spectacle to say the least! Later on Facebook, I found out that he has his own site for the kindred he founded, Hermandad Odinista Del Sagrado Fuego or Odinist Brotherhood Of The Sacred Fire and they have membership throughout all of South America. Isaac lives and works as a professional in Mexico City along with his wife, Rubi Vera.Hunter M. Yoder1.Isaac, How did you become an Odinist?When I was 13 I loved going to the Catholic Cathedral as they had on the floor filled with black swastikas this is where I was born which is a port in northwestern mexico .I started studying shamanism and sorcery of mexico with several guides and teachers, but any change in the wake of a repetitive dream I had and did not know its interpretation.I dreamed of a cliff watching the moon in a dark sky mounted on a black horse field and led me down to a river where he was a boatman with wide-brimmed hat took me to an island where they heard the word fehu continuous echoing in the center was a cabin with the door open .Inside stood a fireplace with a warm fire and a woman on a bed of long black hair was pregnant in act of birth and birth outcome was a large black dog out of the womb that became big and transformed in a white crow and then transformed into a small black cat whose forehead was marked kenaz rune in white and touch it and put it in my chest everything was transformed , the atmosphere changed to a desert where there was a big flame and the floated within 3 runes.The first rune was Ansuz the second was Berkana the third was Kenaz .As I put my hand grabbed 3 fire runes and put them on my chest ended the dream .This happened many times to the point of looking for answers that were these signs and the characters in it.I thought me crazy because for nine months was constant repetition vivid and real.That led me to study and deepen the way of the gods of the north in the Troth .When I started in my country no one am one of the oldest started living this way in my country.I am considered a Gothi or Gudja , a priest in my guild Odinist .2.Why is it important as a
Germanic Heathen to embrace Odinism as a religion?Why this in our root in our blood and in our spirit embrace this call ancient faith of our ancestors being free men face to any destination to manifest our faith nourishes and gives us strength to stand up to any track and make our great teaching .And why is the faith that our descendants should our children by the example of his parents as his greatest treasure treasure individuals being free and full of values so they have the tools to fight in a society destroyed by consumerism and globalization and the loss of values and family breakdown as the core of society.3.Any thoughts on Hexerei, or Germanic Witchcraft? What connection if any does it have with Brujeria or Bruxaria [witchcraft]?Germanic Witchcraft has a large component of people anglosaxon and much of what many new age or wicatrus actually has its historical and traditional witchcraft magic in Germanic.What is the connection, if any, to Witchcraft or Bruxaria?Germanic Witchcraft has had a strong revival and see that there are people actually involved in the study and practice of this noble art and way of life.I deeply respect those sorcerers and artists like Hunter m. Yoder whom I admire his artwork as hexologist and believe deeply that the hex symbols can be transformed for better or for worse, all around.4.What can you share with us about your expertise with falcons? Do you hunt with them?The Falcon is present in my life is an important guide that comes in my dreams and in my daily life I always observe the signals where I live always see these magnificent and beautiful animals flying free and hunted with them and have made communication and familiarity me falcons are part of my family and my spirit.Many years ago when I started this way in a Blot I made to the gods in a tree perched a great white hawk and stayed with me until the ceremony finished filling me with great joy.Do you hunt with them?I do not do because I think the hawks are free to fly without a master.5.The Black Sun or Schwartz Sonne has a special place in the hearts of those of Germanic descent, Intuitively, I have concluded that this is because of its connection to the Great Migrations and the use of the wagon, specifically the wheel and the ancient Aryan connection to the sun as 'sons of the sun' What conclusions have you arrived at regarding this powerful sigil? Do you see any connection here with the Aztec 'Black Sun'?Undoubtedly the tremendous burden that is this symbol in Indo-European cultures and their representations of the sun wheel or swastika to the center as a way of inner light that forges the individual to look inside yourself and find your answers connected with his past and ancestors in so many cultures that make up the Indo-European .I look like a black hole that would manifest a truth of a holographic universe within the multiverse that compose reality.In the relationship of the sun wheel and seasonal
and cosmological cycles over the constellation of the Big Dipper and the Little Bear from the star Polaris is a double star very important to our ancestors and peoples and Germanic tribes trunk .If no relationship with Mesoamerican mythology and more focused on Ometeotl god of fire god of light and darkness and the role that the god Tezcatlipoca the smoking mirror .I think in the past there were previous contacts with civilizations which left their legacy through a puzzle and many parallels not only in Mesoamerica or Slavic Indo-European tribes or tribes in all of them there are links that can lead us in the future to reassess the history as we know .6. What is the relationship between the Runes and the Germanic Pantheon of Gods and Goddesses?The mystery of the runes is strongly linked to the conceptEormersyll - Nawarns - Wurz ( Yggdrasill - Norns , Wyrd ) as a cosmological systemcyclical thought and spirituality of the ancient Germanic peoples aresubstantiate in double time, ie , " what is" and " what isdevelops or becomes , " we must emphasize that the time isgoverning the runes are only two dimensions , not three , as currently manymanage system Runic time ... : Thus, to penetrate the mystery that surrounds the runic system , isneed to understand the " macro- " surrounding it. The concept of Wurz orWyrd is central to the interactions that exist when handling the artrune - magic , ritual and generally any action either from a spiritualor mundane. That energy inherent in time and space of the multiverseenergy traps every submerged and subject to the laws of Wyrd . The concept of Wyrd can be viewed from several perspectives , ie from theLoom standpoint and from the systematic concept big tree orEormersyll ( Yggdrasill ) . The first refers to the great web or loom , weavingby the three Nawarns ( Norns ) , where the three primal energies spin and weavemore complex system with nodular all threads are beingsenergy , they are gods , giants , humans, etc. . , individual destiny , governedand intertwined with the rest of the vast multi universe that strong and formsinfinite direct or indirect interaction with the whole, where every being created ,strengthens and shapes its own energy dynamics, which exert a force orloose thread in his individual and general , to this dynamic force is calledrlog , and is through the loom tension and relaxation occur aschanges or " what will become ." The big tree cosmogonic system , concentrated time and spaceGermano concept ; weather Wurz denotes the shaft , while the spaceis assigned to Eormersyll . Recall that the great cosmic axis , one thatsupports and links to the 9 worlds is the tree or pillar Irminsul ( NOT to be confused withHammer of Thor) , is because the multi - universal . The system cosmogenicthe great tree is very similar to the natural process that takes place in anyfloor of our earth, forming the top of its branches and leaves,supported by a stem and entrenched
deep in the earth for its longroots, which absorb nutrients from the soil and transport thevitality up, thus achieving the natural life cycle of the plant.Within Germanic cosmogony , vitality and wisdom are brought toabove the tree through its three roots , each root with its well anddifferent sites or specific destinations : Neofelham , Hvergelmir and rootWurz belongs to well . This entity represents the destination cosmogonically andetymologically speaking , it is a cognition of the word Wyrd , whichmeans " rotate " , interpreted as fate or " what will be" . Wurz isthen, one of three Nawarns , the primary and central tripartite system .In this way, energy accumulation , events, wisdom principlesdynamic , static equilibrium and chaotic , it's like keeping fitcontinuing the life cycle of the great tree , which supplies its " jets "life energy or push the fate of all entities in differentenergy levels that comprise it. In this system, are described Nawarns spraying and adding water and claythe well of Wurz , denoting the sense of creation, action and transformation ,where the dynamic energy or water flowing up through the roots and , as can bereferred to as " what is" , and nurturing , the complex multi - universal ,resulting in the growth of branches and leaves of the tree , creating aprocess " photosynthetic cosmological " which eventually culminate in the creation offresh water will drip from the leaves to the well and with this startinginfinite cycle again . The big tree was thus a major supplier ofknowledge and wisdom to Wodan ( Odin ) for their self-sacrifice , whenceobtained the vision of multi - universal mystery fully understood in thearrangement of the nine sticks. The cosmological concepts described above are complex and complicatedunderstood , so it is necessary to study each specific for nowonly mentioned in a basic and simple . Understanding these cosmological systems we can realize the role thatplay in the mystery of the runes. The create them, carve them , sing and readproduce a strong interaction with the system or the great tree ofgreat fabric , our journey through life is created by the force of Orlog that areour own actions , however , there are aspects of our entitycan not be changed and that may be remnants of the same energy forceof our ancestors who also Wyrd has given them his touchenergy . The mystery of the runes micrometer reveals a part of what comprisesrunic mystery and time , reveals a vision and understanding negligibleknowledge and wisdom of the macro -cosmos . The work it takes us into these cycles primal universal force ,we are carried away by the infinite current through the vast natural cyclethe great tree , running from deep , dark roots upthe top of its branches, covering us in the great fabric also has beenmysteriously woven by those skilled hands of the great triad . 7.Can you educate the audience as to the evolution of the practice of Odinism in your native Mexico and the rest of Central and South America?Our community is
We moved away from any kind of racism taking as an organizationtribalism as one of their top whatever adoptedby the tribe is part of it with equal rights and obligations We were innovative on this regard although it was out of nowherethe fruit of other groups born in the back to see the past and thereturn to the old ways Developing with the passage of time our own systemworked well in the organization of this brotherhood We are polytheists . We believe in not mixing different paths and religions with our faithour gods deformation of these ideas is something toalways be against the indiscriminate use of the tendency ofsee everything as part of a whole, when we believe that everything hasan essence in itself and whether it should be respected as exemplifiedJesus is the god odin is balder and mercury We believe that combining this type of practice only leads to theignorance and spiritual emptiness calling him finishuniversalist We respect all forms of spirituality making it clear thatis who we are and what we do not want to be Taking the reconstruction and recovery of language and writingGothic as a backup for homogenizing this movement , assacred language that someday our descendants maydaily talk Part of its strength is that the customs and culture of yesteryearmove to the present in order to create individualsaware , more spiritual about their surroundings , anda great sense of respect for the world around them, for lifeand this entails equilibrium in Midjungard Our temples are all forests and heat our homesmaking it clear that there will be venues as churches orbuildings temples make this brotherhood somewherebut all will be used for this purpose midgard respecting andhonoring its sacred nature and careful forest ecologyand our brothers animals which rely on the animal kingdomthe formation of our clans We take to the trees as clear examples of what ourspirituality taking all clans and guilds issued bythis same symbol of the cosmic tree flanked by Eomerssilstars of the constellation Ursa Major and having highthe same tree an eagle surmounted by the double star polaristaking the spiritual north of our tradition as a beacon to usgives its light into the darkness of infinite space Faith , Honor , Family .8.The A:L:U: charm, (Ansuz:Laguz:Uruz) what personal significance if any do you attach to this charm?I'm not familiar with such charm and has no relevance to me. 9. What can you tell us about this Runic Hex?Isaac, can you tell us about your usage of the Runes in creating this visual sign?The sign I use is called Hawk's eye represents the clan of the hawks I see it as an implosion of energy that causes a balance in form and influences creating energy waves around.It is a variant of the big wheel the flyfot the swastika in the cycle of seasons.In generating cycles of 8 runes lighting. Protection, Abundance and fertility.A large sun white across the black hole.In Heathenry or reconstruction called Germanic paganism currently being forged , in every stepcourageous heathens worldwide , expose their views Return to this call is
a daunting task , involving more thanlive a noble life values and beliefs , with leads to betrue in what one is In this diversity of groups, in their work of rebirth, eachorganization interprets these truths and endorsed by providingcharacteristics .There are various schools and folks and among them there are some differences that sometimes give a sense of ideological divorce , even this dissent can occur within the same folk.This phenomenon is perfectly normal, Odinists primarily because we lack a central institution to be responsible for issuing regulations and dogmas of faith . However, there is a unifying element : the ancestral , but above all , faith .The point is that this call in some people and occasions, is present , in particular guiding spiritual direction.Past and even invasionsstrangers religions , a person was away to choose a religion and spirituality growing within their own tribe . A Native American, happy in his wild nature, not listen to Gods rare for them such as the Gods Orientales.This was due to the tribal structure in which he grew up as a child , born within the bosom of a tribe with a more or less established beliefs and a spiritual entities which yieldedworship, this conception was far from self and worry about otherreligions , devoted his life to his own inheritance . Similarly, other beliefs , other Indians as in Europe , were established in a society where we own was including religion and spiritual traditions in which they conceived their development.A clear cut in these customs andorganizations could be clearly pagan Rome, an empire and asEmpire Universalist any nation . Rome adopted for if , like Greece, gods and customs of other peoples , usually peoples who had already dominated and closely studied .Unlike the later would make Christian , Rome not destroy most of the time andexcept sometimes counted , the religions of the peoples who invaded and imposed their religion on anyone. Now identifiedother Gods as Germanic or Celtic and interestingly the Greeksof those who took much of their beliefs , with hisown . Odinism is a religion tribalist , but this , I observe thatoften only seen from an organizational perspective andsocial , ie Odinists Clans and we settle inFolk Families of it , however , we often ignore otheraccounting for Tribalism meanings and traditionsspiritual are totally misunderstood , at least to metrial, but some contemporary Heathens . As we have seen , each person belonged to the religion of the tribewhere born, were those same traditions those of his nearest anddistant ancestors and what would be their offspring frommoment when these come to Midgard. Spirituality is transmitted to us as so many things,our own genetic inheritance also becomes a legacyspiritual . This is proved by many things , our own environment byinstance . The Cultural Environment clearly marks the character of theperson , since childhood. More than ethnicity, is the culturewhat makes children and headed for an education (not toconfuse ethnicity with culture). A religion of that culture willbased solely on their mother culture where flourished
, notforget that Christianity is not a religion of our culture. This religion of a culture so scrupulously concretetypical mean spirituality endangered cultureUniversalism disintegration phenomenon that destroyscultural and religious identities , globalization laying inlife threatening unit of American Indian tribal groups areperhaps the cruelest face of such universalism typical of the EmpireFascist , or as others say , the Oligarchy . Politics alwayswill be one of the greatest dangers of cultural groupsdesire for survival , such as ethnic and cultural sectorspose a danger to globalization , the main source ofincome from strong and the powerful . Here we see the worst atomic weapon , the worst side ofUniversalism , ie, the yoke of totalitarianism under whichtry to humiliate a tribal collectives . Another clear example of such binding religion, culture , involves themythology . We know , at least the fans noticed thedifferent mythologies , that the mythology of a people is capable oftell the story of their culture and even more , as themythology can give huge tracks the thinking of an entirevillage, the village where this mythology flourished. clearly this shows the great truth of spiritual lineage oftribal character and the union of these two factors. a personalways more effective when you own things , one will speakits always best mother language , which he inherited from his culture andwho knows by heart , to another he learned later and talkingclearly difficult. The Odinist receive this inheritance according to Folk tobelongs. Asatru belief is very respectable , but nonethelessHis followers often become very Universalists by not taking intohas its own heritage .I guess for comfort , not try to investigate their owninheritances, Icelandic traditions are when they have nothing todo with Iceland, might not know the history of that nation. theRunes are studied according to the Icelandic landscape and fills themmouth with a runic magical grimoire of Icelandic origin and also withtouches strong Christians.It is true that if our Gods claim for all their childrenthe imposing Teutonic nation , however , it is also true thateach tribe (Folk ) had differences other folk maybe a neighbor ,but different after all .In what does it profit a Goth, Saxon runes ? As materialstudy may be interesting , however when thepractice did you serve ?If the Goths had a very conception Rune and aown magical and spiritual traditions , it is stupid that andescended from them that Odinist call himself , end upbased on a totally different tradition . The all- father Odin, Odin was not called for all Germans .Each one had its own way of calling . Odin may well servefor Asatru , however ? us ?Strictly speaking , either Odin or Uuoden (ie , ourWodan ) , this is the same entity , the same divinity . withoutBut each tribe was revealed in a different way and generationafter generation was inherited to come in an identical mannerto which their ancestors may receive . I have heard that the proper way to call within a Folk isa way of giving the same Folk homogeneity . We are in danger ofthink
that is a method of marking our own identityFolk auque against other and also that is one reason it is alsotrue that there is a powerful spiritual reason within their ownconcept .The establishment of a Folk, not based on making a differenceonly, a different language, a different concept , onedifferent story , maybe better or maybe worse . All this is verynice and very easy to digest , but there is a powerful reason isaway to make a difference and declare a relevant autonomy .Besides all this , is to contact a single intrinsic strength ,within a modus operandi itself that connects us with a sourceancestor that sopondra a profit, the profit from alegacy with which we are born . It's similar to what Jung called the collective unconscious or subconscious race . After folkish ideology , understood in a broad andreal superficiality is removed , ethnicity and its slopesignorant and unrealistic : racism and Nazism. Besides this it is foundFace reality where a person connects his ownpast and takes advantage of his heritage. Now there is a concept historically Germanic , as wetests indicate that history has left the hands of theirspokespersons ; historians.The concept of adoption has been practiced by some tribesfrom early Germanic times nothing . While a familycomposed in a way , that for the western walking , wouldTraditional . Also present the concept of adoption andadoptee ( by a blood pact ) was considered a memberClan itself . This person even had the legal right andlegitimate on inheritances . This shows that this idea was notnothing unusual in the traditional paradigm of our ancestors andOdinism been preserved, among other things , thatsocial conception and assimilated for your organization.When talking about superficiality before interpreting theVolkish movement , also spoke of the idea of those whodeny this truth , adoption is not a universal concept andtribes was used in making a completelytribal Tribalism see it as a third option that frees that infamous war against universalist folkish heathens . There are already several years I have seen flourish groups and organizationsserious , following this call to form organized and establishedas an option in thedifferent systems prevailing in this eternal manifestationsevolution that gives our way For those who stand firm in the distance to our religion and spirituality from here myblessings and admiration for his work Because every path or every conflictgenerates growth and self-knowledge My most fervent are individuals who establish families ,based on values and virtues returning this past and adapting tobe present in the future of our actions and present actions To all who rebuild their tribe , raise my horn full ofmead for this titanic work That the Valkyries ensure the path of those who with a knot ofknowledge and effort to build working randomlyour way At the end of the appointment in the sacred precincts , someday to have enougheveryone equally and then to our gods and ancestors canall provide the same horn.10.
