Flow through me...
From atop the mountain.
Flow through me...
All the memories.
Flow through me...
All creation.
Flow through me...
Those elders tears.
Tears flow from my eyes.
Tears of separation.
Tears of those before.
Tears of all...that ever will be.
Flow through me...
Cleanse my spirit.

From her womb you are born.
a shimmering golden sun.
a burden so precious, a gift so beautiful.
A daughter she bears.
so strong you shall be.
Let me teach you these words.
I will sing your spirit free.
My words they shall heal
They will teach you to see.
These words shaping iron,
arrows they shall be.
I will stand as this tall ever-growing tree.
These roots, they are planted in soil warm and deep.
I will take all your shame,
bid you free from your chains.
With wolves teeth youll speak wisdom unto thee.
As your wind songs fell bonds, lift spirits, spin tongues.
Youll see threads weave, let thy spirit free.
HEALING THE MOTHER!

An Eagles Blessing

I lifted you from your place of rest.
I spread your wings as mine.
I laid you down by the waters edge as I placed my hands on you.
These hands unclean, they drew from you these feathers of gold.
I laid you down under ancient stone.
This blessing I laid on you.
I gazed on you from across the water.
I heard your voice inside.
Eagle: "Return me now from where you stole me.
This is not where I chose to lie.
You see this ring of stone below?
This is why you are here.
Take these stones and make it whole.
Mend this broken ring."
Me: "I see this ring of stones below.
This is why Im here.
I will take these stones and make it whole.
I will mend this broken ring."

Carry the body of that which you've stolen.
Carry her under the harvest moon.
Long is your journey, lifes weight on your shoulders.
This doe your burden, her life for yours.
Lay her softly by the roots of the hanging tree.
Feel her blood run down your hands.
Warmth has faded, her flesh grows cold.
Mornings light shows her tender soul.
See your reflection inside those dead eyes.
Sing your sister to the other side.
Weep for her, don't be afraid to cry.
Whisper her the eternal lullaby.
Her pain has faded, theres blood on your hands.
These marks shall be painted across your head.
Redden this rune, breathe it life, sing it breath.
Three prongs form this body, now honor her death.
Raise her bones up to the sky.
Give her blood as your sacrifice.
Remember her beauty, remember her grace.
She is the gift from the forest you take.

Fire freeing, winds are weaving, waking waters
to bring these seeds life anew.
I remember an Old Tree.
I remember from long ago.
I remember creation turning.
Stars I saw lighting the sky.
I remember brother Bear.
King of the dark wood.
I remember the eagle soaring.
High above the mountain.
I see roots decaying.
I see sickness spreading.
I see our pain growing.
I see a new world birthing.
I see the wheel turning.
I see a people yearning.
I see seeds becoming.
I see in all its beauty.
Fire freeing, winds are weaving, waking waters
to bring these seeds life anew.

Sun and Moon Dance North Carolina
We're seed and tree with roots deep into earth and branches stretching to the heavens. We are the voice of creation…from the smallest of creatures to the mightiest of beasts. We are songs of dancing fire, whirling wind, flowing water and the standing stone. We are pain and sorrow woven into hope and beauty. We are forest and meadow… the mountain and river. We are what was and what is becoming. ... more

It is different than previous releases, nonetheless it is astonishing and beautiful homage to nature. One reproach, like both previous albums this one too flown by so quickly. Do yourself a favor and listen to this music in forest you like to visit.

With this album Sowulo continue to bridge the gap between the ambient soundtrack and the heart-pounding gig. I'm lucky enough to have heard them live, and like their albums they draw the past into the present.

Vetrarljós
by Gaetir The Mountainkeeper
supported by 10 fans who also own “Re:member”
Gaetir has a unique approach to Germanic folk, and it touches on an aspect of the old mindset and way of life that other folk artists capture in a select few songs, not entire albums. That is the Faustian Spirit: a celebration of the majesty of the infinite expanse and the unknown, infused with awe, fear, and curiosity. Gaetir captures this sometimes destructive yet irresistible attraction to the more primordial reaches of the cosmic thread. Highly recommend listening during storms.
