From a Kentucky Hillside to Building a Hall for the Old Gods

Norse Pagan Symbols: The Valknut · 13:48 · Video: Jacob Toddson · Watch at the source

In short: Explore how a personal spiritual journey in 2016 evolved into a growing community of Norse Pagans. This video tracks the transition from private offerings to public gatherings and the ambitious goal of constructing a physical hall in North America.

In 2019, Jacob Toddson began organizing communal worship for the Old Gods after experiencing a personal spiritual connection with Odin. Starting with a gathering of 27 people in Kentucky, the movement gained significant traction through his online platform, 'Wisdom of Odin.'

The initiative aims to move beyond digital community building toward physical infrastructure. The long-term goal is to construct a dedicated hall in North America, a project that requires community labor and resources to transform a shared spiritual dream into a permanent landmark.
