What is a βStraw-Death?
"Straw-death" was a term used by the Norse people to describe the act of dying peacefully in one's bed.
Unlike the valorized deaths in battle, "straw-death" was often seen as a less honorable end. This distinction reflected the Viking culture's emphasis on heroic deeds and warrior prowess.
So why did we name our blog βStraw-Death?β
Where did we get this idea from for our blog?
We came up with the idea for βStraw-Deathβ while meditating on the meaning of the word while sitting alongside a bonfire.
As a modern Pagans, weβre not likely to die in battle.
We donβt anticipate our afterlives being welcomed into the halls of Valhalla.
So what lies ahead for us?
Getting involved is easy. It can be as simple as supporting this blog by reading articles and commenting. It could be coming to Deeply Rooted events! It could also look like donating to the church or becoming one of our members!
