Supernatural beings not disturbed by new pagan temple

[icymist]

Construction is well underway for the first main hof, or temple, of the Ásatrú religion in a thousand years. The temple will be ready in spring 2017.

The new temple will be situated in the beautiful woodlands in Öskjuhlíð, a hill in Reykjavik where The Pearl is located, and is designed by architect Magnús Jensson. It is built around the path of the sun around the earth‘s mantle and the holy numbers of 9 and 432,000 are used in the design. The Golden ratio and sacred geometry play a part in the temple‘s design, just as they do in many of the worlds religious buildings.

Originally the temple was supposed to be ready in the late summer of 2016 but Hilmarsson sayst that the new date is more realistic. "Everything has gone extremely well. The supernatural beings are on our team, as we gave them copious amounts of súrmjólk (sourmilk) and beer. We were sensitive to their needs and they seem to be happy." Hilmarsson is excited about the new temple. The last main hof of the reliigion was burned down in Uppsala, Sweden in the year 1070.

1. I'm glad to see that the non-humans appear to be pleased

Thanks for posting this. I needed the good, happy, read today. Between a migraine that has refused to give me any peace for three days and all the other unhappy stories of late, it is good to finally see something upbeat.
