[edit]
Description
English: Forn Sed: Disablót at boulder. The picture is taken at a Disablót held by the Gothenburg kindred Godthiod at 7th February 2009 at a boulder called Storbuckasten (i.e. approx. The Big Buckle Stone or The Big Bulging Stone) in Sörby parish, Vilske hundred, Falköping municipality, Västergötland, Västra Götaland, Sweden. Disablót is a Norse ceremony honoring Goddesses, Ancestresses, Disir, Fylgjas, and children yet to be born, and it is corresponding to the Celtic Imbolc. The boulder is 8×5 meter and 3.5 meter high. In the picture we see two participant doing their personal offerings at the boulder. The offereings consisted mainly of fruits, sandwiches, and sweets. Note that no cult images was used at the ceremony.
Svenska: Forn Sed: Disablot vid flyttblock. Bilden är tagen vid Göteborgs-blotlaget Godthiods Disablot 2009-02-07 vid flyttblocket Storbuckasten, Bäckagårdens utmark, Sörby socken, Vilske härad, Falköpings kommun, f.d. Skaraborgs län, Västergötland, Västra Götaland, Sverige. Disablot är en nordisk ceremoni för att hedra gudinnor, diser, anmödrar, fylgjor och de som ska födas. Disablotet motsvarar den keltiska högtiden Imbolc. Flyttblocket är 8×5 meter stort och 3,5 meter högt, samt ingår i en gropavall (en ålderdomlig typ av hägnadsvall) med nummer "Sörby 145" i Riksantikvarieämbetets Fornminnesregister. På bilden ses två deltagare göra personliga offer vid Storbuckasten. Offergårvorna bestod främst av frukt, smörgåsar och godis. Notera att inga gudabilder förekom vid blotet. Flyttblocket ligger nu i granskog, men på 1800-talet var här uppodlat. Godthiod var ett blotlag inom Sveriges Asatrosamfund (numer kallat Samfundet Forn Sed Sverige).
