Reacting to Heilung for the first time! (Aonoana)

[@dnanarv]

Observe the eclipse. The ancients looked at people born during the eclipse (the black sun on that guys drum) as having powers of turning into their spirit animals, and giving life to the dead. She was born during the eclipse, and merges with her spirit animal in another eclipse.

[@Astro-Markus]

Unfortunately, the "black sun" is a symbol first designed by the Nazis in Germany. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Sun_(symbol) But it's not the symbol used in this video.

[@edwardlenovo3240]

@@Astro-Markus false the nazis appropriated many ancient Nordic/Germanic symbols and altered them , there are sun wheels that look very similar to the nazi black sun. And no the symbol on the pregnant woman looks like a Aeghisjalmar variation.

[@joshuawelch6722]

That fallows logically

[@stratis7410]

​@edwardlenovo3240 bro u can see literally black sun in this music video tf u talk about symbols

[@Graldo_music]

​@@stratis7410the symbols are the futharc rune for "sol" , the sun, a symbol which the nazis happens to use for the SS symbol. So yes both right and wrong at the same time. Origin rune symbol, used with a bad group.

[@Friedensp4nzer]

Ah yes, Heilung. They don't do concerts, they hold rituals. Their shows are always special. The "standard" recommendation would be to watch something from their first show at Castlefest, LIFA. For example Krigsgaldr or In Maidjan

[@TheOffkilter]

I dont know if she found Kai's singing in THIS to be "unsettling", I think shed freak out over pretty much anything from LIFA lol.

[@jamisonr]

I saw them front row about two weeks ago, amazing. I mean here I am looking at reaction videos for something I've seen up close and personal, very powerful still.

[@george93308]

I concur 100%. Saw them outdoors at the Greek theater. It was a 2 hour ritual. A couple parts were a little unnerving but it's something you have to experience.

[@Nidels]

Hi: The lyrics for this piece are mainly taken from bracteates: golden, circular coins or amulets found in Northern Europe that date from the 4th to 7th centuries CE. They are often fitted with a decorated rim and loop, which indicates that they were meant to be worn and perhaps provide protection, fulfil wishes or for divination. The bracteates feature a very significant iconography influenced by Roman coinage. They were predominantly made from Roman gold, which was given to the North Germanic peoples as peace money. In Anoana, the listener has the chance to delve into a collection of likely encoded spells from the Migration Period and get a touch of magic from the Dark Ages. The intention of the piece is to playfully reconnect to an incantational language of a period where the North was richer in gold than any other region. Our forefathers presumably enjoyed a time of great prosperity and it may make us rethink how dark these ages real Above the sign on the womb of the giving birth mother is probably a painted version of Ægirs Hjelm/Aegishjalmur/Ægishjálmr ("Ægir's Helmet"), which is a symbol described in the Poetic Edda as a symbol of ultimate protection, physical, mental and spiritual referred to as protection against all kinds of fear "Ægir/Ægi" means "Sea" in both dialects of Old Norse and is also the name of the personification of the sea. "Ægir's Gate", describes the eddies that drag ships to the bottom of the sea. Ægir / Ægi has often been described as an old man with a long white beard, and to see him standing still in the water was a bad omen, as he surfaced to drag people and ships to the bottom of the ocean. Ægirs Hjelm is described in the Poetic Edda in a stanza with a shape-shifting dragon, Fafner, whose blood is poisonous. The dragon guards a treasure and, with the help of Ægirs Hjelm's spell, is invincible. In The Galdrabók, the symbol is also described as something "you wear on your forehead, between your eyebrows"). In any case, this must be taken with tweezers since it may be wrong. About the solar eclipse perhaps these images would be connected with the symbol of the black sun. For the ancients, the sun was the source of life, as it provided them with heat and energy. The lack of him was just the opposite. For the ancient peoples, it seems that the periodicity and continuity of day and night made us think not only of the existence of 1 sun, but of two suns, one bright and luminous and the other black. One represented life and the other death. This could be translated as the balance between light and dark and its connection to the world of the dead and the living. In it, the dawn of the day was interpreted as the rebirth of life and its renewal. That is why eclipses were so important for all primitive and ancient cultures: When the sun disappeared in broad daylight, they predicted that eclipses would bring about great changes, or that even in the worst case, the world could come to an end. As for the drum that Christopher Juul handles and the symbol that is drawn on it, it bears a certain resemblance to the kolovrat and the black sun, but I have not been able to find any that really come close, so the question is whether this symbol, what Have the members of the group created it as something aesthetic for the video, or if that symbol really exists in the Nordic culture, but I am not able to find anything about it at the moment. The answer certainly lies with the members of the musical group Heilung or some archaeologist specialized in Nordic culture. This is the original letter: [María] Athilr Rikithir Ai Eril idi Uha Ijalh Fahd Tiade Elifi An It Athilr Rikithir Ai Landawariar Año Ana Fahd Tiade Elifi An It Aelwao Ano Ana Tuwa Tuwa Tau Liu Ano Ana Tuwa Tuwa [Kai] UL FOS LAU LAL GWUL PED UL ULD AUL LEI ELw ATH RET LAE TyS Otro REI GUI AU AU LA OA SEJS ZUL AU AL HaR HaS Ka TIL AZ Ha IR EL UNOZ LEIT Una DZ GUI UI THUL UHNG Ur OI WHUG DIT La La LIH LaL Ur USK GLa Jue LAL La La La TLG Jue TiL Ur Ur Ur Ur Gel THuL So Oth LAU IA TyL LI RAI WUI IL DAI TU Han UTH A IUr EL AL Dan An ERUI AL EIZ An RA TIU An KU AK The language is proto-norse.

Hi from germany, you have to go very deep in to nordic and germanic history, its about the reborn god of nature (the child) its about the conection to nature we are all connected to nature. Great reaction!!! Heilung considers themselves to be a tribe and their fans brothers and sisters

[@ShilohSmith]

I’m at the point where I can’t even think of the right words to describe the art that is Heilung. Everything they do, is nothing short of pure, primal gold.

[@goeranm55]

Can I just add some points that are important in seeing this? The most important being that the child is born under an eclipse (seen in background several times). After the birth you see a circular path of darkness which is one of the possible destinies for the child, and it scares the mother. According to previking believes they (those born under eclipses) had very special gifts: hamnskifte (= the ability to change appearance), age shift, talking to animals, healing (of the bird) etc The previking time and it's religion in nordic countries is much more female oriented than the religion in the later years (with viking gods like Tor and Oden... ). Also healing of the bird. They sing in a reconstructed version of the previking proto norse language.... The bracteates are the starting point for this tale, because they are one of the few "written" recordings of this language. But Sweden and Norway are also full of drawings (hällristningar = rock carvings) as memory of them. Example en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_Carvings_in_Tanum Caveat: I did publish similar comments to other reactor earlier, but I do think this is important in order to appreciate it

[@strider675]

Pagan, this is a band that is well worth doing some research on. As mentioned in an earlier comment "they dont have concerts they have rituals. Everyone who listens to them comes away a little changed. Welcome to the family

[@sophieb1829]

[@susannradal9303]

Yes it is called kullning and it is both the high notes and the low

[@marlonjames2000]

since most everything on the topic of the video itself has been said so far, ill just state that their previous album was about the male spirit, within a village that was forced to war (with presumably the romans) and the warrior. this album is focused on the mother, the lifegiver and the female strength. theyre very deliberate with their topics and themes so this is a great representation of their newest projects soul.

[@Titan19701]

This band is what beautiful sounds like…. So much peace….. it’s crazy how much peace I feel hearing them sing….. wow.

[@TD_JR]

A child born under an eclipse in Old Norse was thought to be imbued with special powers allowing them to assume the form of an animal or restore its life from death. With regard to the eclipse itself, the Sun is pulled in a chariot by two horses ... who were chased by Skoll, a great wolf born of Fenrir. Skoll's sibling, Hati.... chased the moon. Ragnarok... their version of the end times was related to this event in which the Old Norse thought would occur if Skoll finally caught up with the Sun, and Hati finally caught up to the Moon... devouring them and unleashing the end times among those who believed it. So.... here's this video showing ceremonies with a whole lot of drumming going on which is what the Old Norse did way back then in an attempt to scare Skoll and Hati off from their heavenly pursuits. Anoana does a fantastic job of putting it together.

[@michaelbosse7321]

The more often I see that video the more I can't hold back my tears praying for an alternative society.

Check them out if their music speaks to you. A greater voice speaks through Maria when she sings. Whats the connection with Mother nature and yourself, their music will bring about a sense of the primal within and yet a yearning to return to her.

[@sylvari]

Another Pagan Army here to comment on how happy I am to see my two worlds collide! These guys are spectacular in every way. If you are up to it check out more of their stuff, they do not disappoint. It reminds us that women were once considered sacred because they stood at the gates of life and death with their bodies. Loved this!

[@ColumbiaBeet]

Nail on the head with all your off the cuff observations. Their "costumes" are home made, with materials that would have existed during the bronze, iron, and early middle ages Northern Europe, with some personal touches that help them feel grounded and remind them of home. So yes, very special...and they perform wearing the same attire, every show.

so difficult to collect my thoughts........I am amazed, frightened, hopeful, feeling mortal, wanting to pray to some deity........I believe these are the emotions Maria and the band hope to elicit from the audience.........I can imagine these are EXACTLY the sounds made by pre-Christian Norse shaman, priests and warriors......does anyone know who makes their drums and what skins they use? thanks in advance.....note that the ritual takes place under an eclipse in the sky.......I like to think the ending shows Anoana meging with the ox in a perpetuation of nature......

[@sanjuro66]

Great reaction, and your name...how fitting. LOL. In retrospect, I watched a video done by Heilung with a quick explanation of the song. Maria Franz (lead vocalist) stated the "words" that more-or-less can be translated are "Landa wariar" I believe they are utilized three times in the song...ergo: "Landa wariar Ano ana" or loosely translated to PROTECTOR OF THE LAND ANOANA. Also, kudos to Annicke Shireen, who did the high pitched kulning-like vocals.

[@BolasDaGrk]

Every time I hear this song, my entire body is engulfed in goosebumps...

[@robertwhite7234]

You seemed to really enjoy this Heilung song. A few weeks ago they released an official version of this Anoana done live this year at their London "ritual". You should revisit this song and see how absolutely powerful it is and how they pull it of in front of an audience. I got to attend their Denver ritual a few weeks back. They are stunning in concert.

To me its a beautiful celebration of life, and, like you said womenhood. Theres a tiny bit during the birthing scene where you see one of them taking a psychedelic mushroom and curiosly thats a theme I also pondered about while on shrooms, how women are the gifters of life and much more, if there where only men on this world I think we would have torn ourselves to pieces without the balancing presence of women in our lives. Its hard to describe but I think yall get what I mean.

Heilung is AMAZING, especially their live performances... I'd recommend you watch the "In Maidjan" live performance (and if you want, watch the Hellblade 2 Official Reveal Trailer first... They used part of the "In Maidjan" song on it and holly f*ck it hits hard on that trailer...)

[@vava_pl]

Oh yes. In June, I was at their concert for the first time, at the Mystic Festival in Gdańsk, Poland. I had very high expectations, but they were far exceeded. Best show at whole festival, and one of the best experiences i had.

[@paulslater9555]

So I would encourage anyone new to Heilung to watch the LIFA performance on KZbin in its entirety. It was performed at Castlefest in Lisse, Netherlands. It was the very first time they performed in front of a large audience. You can also listen to their first album “Ofnir” and really hear the beginnings of something that has taken the world over. From 2017-2022 they have amassed millions of views, fans(family) and toured the northern hemisphere. Starting in March they will cross the equator and travel to Bankok(literally sold out in minutes)and then to Australia.

[@wuotaniruoperath8410]

in the Edda there is a text that tells what you see in the video here. According to this, it is the oldest love song of mankind, a love song to the women, revered as life bringers and irrepressible force of nature and Heilung interprets this text very well. With the Germanic/Nordic "uncivilized" peoples, the women had a higher reputation than comparatively with the "civilized" Romans or Greeks and today women have forgotten to be women and men forget to be men.

Is a song about birth and rebirth. The singers symbolize the souls and at the same time for male and female. Is typical of shamanism in the north... the collision at the end does not represent death, but rather a new beginning.

OK, going to take you up on a few suggestions with a shaman type vibe (but not as much as Heilung....but amazing. Aurora is an amazing singer, suggest The Murder Song (5,4,3,2,1)...suggest her live performance at the 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert. Also strongly suggest Diana Ankudinova, in my opinion the most fascinating vocalist today, suggest starting with her cover of Wicked Game, or her amazing performance of the Russian Folk song "Rechenka"....both at a very young age (use masks/filters to avoid the copyright cops). You might have to go to her KZbin channel, as the Russian Govt has blocked a lot of their state run tv content lately. Also is her mind blowing performance of the Elvis Classic "Cant Help Falling in Love"

You should read the "Oera-Linda Boek" which is a history of the Frisians AKA proto Germans going back to the Neolithic age. The society was matriarchal, there was a king but he had to get the approval of the Burg-Magda. An interesting read.
