Asatru Folk Assembly - Zierscheibe, Sonnenrad, and the Black Sun #afa #asatru #ásatrú #asatrufolkassembly #shorts

00:00:00.000 in German, it's called a Zier Shiba. And it's just a decorative disc. And they would have this motif

00:00:06.960 on so many different things. And if you if you Google them, or you look them up, they're very,

00:00:13.200 very similar to that 12 spoked solar, solar symbol, sun and rod, or I'm not trying to fool

00:00:22.080 anybody black sun. And if you look at it, the reason that we get a lot of ooh, that's edgy or

00:00:27.760 whatever is it is displayed prominently in uh Schloss Webelsberg in Germany that ended up that

00:00:38.480 was the uh the Schutzstaffel's headquarters but the thing that comes into play often with

00:00:47.200 Third Reich imagery and Ausatru is we're both hearkening back to an Ur tradition of

00:00:54.800 symbols and spiritual power from our pre-christian germanic ancestors and so there's certainly

00:01:08.200 going to be things that both groups use this 12 spoke version this is the most clean modern

00:01:17.340 version of it, but you can find 12 spoke variants of, again, these very ancient Zerscheibas.

00:01:27.100 Zerscheibas, sorry, for any of our German speaking audience, I apologize.

00:01:34.620 But yeah, it's a very powerful symbol and it's solar, it's got the 12 for the 12 months,

00:01:39.980 The completion, the number 12, is very important in our lore and in our practice of Al-Satru.

00:01:50.120 In material that Svon and I will be going over with you guys shortly in the Gilfaginning when asked to, you know, who are these Isir?

00:02:00.380 The Isir are 12.

00:02:02.000 The Isir that it's beneficial for man to worship or that it's good to call upon are 12. 0.94

00:02:07.320 that number of 12 is really important to us so the 12 spokes just like the 12 you know 12 hours

00:02:15.000 on a clock face are essential to that the uh the squiggle yes it's the sig rune the victory rune

00:02:22.920 but it's also it implies that movement and it's particularly that solar movement um sodas i mean

00:02:30.120 when we're on the topic of these particular kind of symbols so does the swastika it it's a solar

00:02:35.800 symbol that implies that rotational movement and that constant movement is essential to

00:02:43.480 concepts in our faith that are really important um it's reinforced in our lore a lot but the basic

00:02:52.760 idea is to keep moving forward
