14 posts held, back to 19 May 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 pageof Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 14 posts for this entry, the most recent from 11 July 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.
48 reactions across 10 posts, in 5 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 37.5% of them.

No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 10 of the 14 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 48reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 14 most recent posts we hold, published 19 May 2026 to 11 July 2026, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.
This is incorrect, historic attestations of the word never rely on it as such. Further, the Saga of Sigurd Jerusalemfarer even refers to Muslim pirates as "vikings". "..Þá er Sigurðr konungr sigldi fyrir Spán, barst þat at, at víkingar nökkurir, þeir er fóru at herfangi, kómu í móti honum með..."

“Viking” isn’t a profession as some may claim, but an ethnonym. The poem Widsith contains the term wicinga cynn; Vikings’ kin. No Anglo Saxon literature applies this term to themselves, despite being a related, seafaring people. The Old English term cynn means kin, also appearing in the term Angelcynn, used in Mercian law codes, and by Alfred the Great, to describe the unified Anglo Saxon People. It also appears in t…

THEOPHANY OF WŌDEN The King of the Gods in Germanic Paganism is Odin, called Wōden in Old English, Óðinn in Old Norse, and Wotan in Old High German. Wōden is commonly known for having sacrificed an eye for wisdom, giving Him a one-eyed appearance. Historical sources also describe Wōden as divine and dignified with the appearance of a king and emperor. Today, we will look at some of those sources, developing our unde…

Relavant paper, The Hills Have Eyes. The Mighty One in The Mountain: a homonym, masking what were originally two quite distinct words. In the sense of a powerful, even divine, supernatural presence in the landscape, it has its immediate antecedent is the early medieval Icelandic form ǫ́ss ([heathen] god), < *ansuz, and is declined as a ustem. Identical in the nominative singu lar is the word áss, ‘beam, ridge, ya…
It can also refer to a yardsail of a ship, a main support pillar of a house, and the horizon on rocky craigs.
The Old Norse term óss can mean the mouth of a river as well as Æsir, and the Norwegian Rune Poem could interchangeably use this meaning; “Óss er flæstra færða för; en skalpr er sværða.” “Estuary is the way of most journeys; but a scabbard is of swords.” This links it to Odin as the patron of travellers, who is called Váfuðr, Gangleri and Vegtam (wanderer) and Farmagnuðr (travel-furtherer), calms a storm in the Regin…

We have this. It is called Anglo-Saxon Paganism / Heathenry.

The Heathen man has a responsibility to protect his family and people. If you aren’t allowed to carry a weapon, at least train in some form of unarmed combat. In light of certain killings that are happening in our homelands we must take action and be prepared to protect ourselves and our loved ones when the time comes. These mindless drones who stand idly by while they watch their kinsmen be slain are just as guilt…

There's a lot more to this argument than simply wondering where this missing carbon is coming from, and some random literature, but also the simple fact that cremation is a very intense process and requires a lot of heat. And if done wrong, the body can both move and make noises that make it seem as though the person is alive. It takes a lot of talent and capability to produce a fire hot enough to actually burn human…

You’ve probably heard that the Vikings threw bones into forges. The theory comes from Lotte Hedeager, who made a rather convincing case that, despite a lack of concrete evidence, it may have been bone ash that provided some of the necessary carbon to carburize bog iron into high carbon steel. This would also have immense spiritual implications, if the bones of an ancestor or sacred animal was used, imbuing a sword …

Showing the 12 most recent of 14 posts we hold for @germanic_religion. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.

Channels on the register whose posts this channel has forwarded.
Built only from forwarded posts we have actually read, on both sides. Coverage is early and deliberately incomplete: a missing link means we have not read the post that would prove it, never that the relationship does not exist. Counts are distinct forwarded posts observed, so they only ever go up as we read more.
A live page changes as we take new readings, so a citation should name the measurement it is based on, not just the URL. The line below cites the subscriber count as measured 8 August 2026 — this entry's latest reading, not the date you are reading this.
