A question for followers of Asatru (please read details...)?

Question

Just out of curiosity, does Asatru contain an anti-Aesir element? For example, if you'll excuse the parallel, like Christians have Satanists, do the Asatruar have the followers of Fenris or Loki?

If so, are there any formal bodies that oversee such a cult/religion akin to the Church of Satan?

I ask because, while I am an atheist, I consider myself (metaphorically) a scion of Fenrir Wolf. I regularly do rituals to honor him (even if it's only a symbol relevant to my life).

I have claimed solar and lunar eclipses as my 'holidays', days significant and relevant to me, go out into the woods to build a bonfire and renew my pledge to his ideals with a silence shattering howl, so that Fenrir will know he is not forgotten, even though I know the astromechanics behind the events.

It'd be nice to meet up with some others who share such a passion for the Wolffather, whether they believe in his literal existence or not.

Answer 1

Well there are people who primarily worship Loki, they're called Lokeans. And I have also known some who follow Fenris.

As far as I know there is no equivalent to the Satanist's "Church of Satan" for those who do follow Loki.

Answer 2

WOW GREAT QUESTION!!!!!
I have always though the "dark" side of Neo Pagan faiths like Asatru lay in Racial supremacy. I had not thought about what you are suggesting!
I guess at last someone has tried it...
I guess Egyptian traditions have the Setians (Temple of Set)
Though I know Asatru sometimes veiw Good and Evil a little differently as Loki is never totaly evil (like Satan) just as Odin is never totaly good...but they are more "human" and like nature...

Answer 3

Astrau is Loki, Fenrir is a Babylonian wolf God, thats why I like the aspects of freestyle polytheism, incorporate the Norse(cannanite), Sumer, and Babylonains, with the Egyptians.

Answer 4

All followers of Hinduism do no longer settle for just one unique faith via fact the owner and grasp of God, or the actuality. on the choice, they understand that all of us exist on distinctive stages of evolution and diverse stages of progression in our direction in direction of the theory of fairly the certainty. hence, Hinduism as a faith accepts, tolerates and respects with comprehension each and every theory, faith or faith and expects a similar or an analogous approach from different religions in direction of itself. The Rig Veda expresses our approach in direction of different religions by skill of asserting: "Aa no bhadrah kratavo yantu vishwatah".. which skill, "enable any noble theory to return to us from despite direction"... This word consists of the actual approach of Sanatana-dharma and of the fairly non secular guy. each and every follower of Hinduism respects the two all saints and prophets from each and every faith.
