Under The Whip

A place where a humble blind service submissive can calm her mind and clear out the corners with her thoughts, opinions, stories, experiences, and tribulations.

I am a proud Norse Pagan and practice Asatru, a path deeply rooted in ancient traditions and the Nine Noble Virtues. Through extensive research into both Asatru and the values that guide my beliefs, I discovered a profound alignment with the principles of the Leather Community. Upon further exploration of the BDSM lifestyle, I found striking similarities between the virtues upheld in Asatru. Such as courage, honor, and discipline, and the core values within the Leather Community, which also emphasizes respect, trust, and personal integrity. This intersection of faith and lifestyle has allowed me to embrace a path that merges spiritual depth with the transformative power of connection and self expression.

 


The values of Asatru, particularly the Nine Noble Virtues, align closely with the principles upheld within the Leather Community, reflecting a shared emphasis on honor, personal integrity, and mutual respect.

 

Courage in Asatru mirrors the Leather Community’s commitment to standing firm in one's beliefs and desires, often in the face of societal norms or external judgment. Both cultures embrace the strength to be authentic, even if it means embracing what may be unpopular or misunderstood.


Truth is a cornerstone of both traditions. In Asatru, being truthful is sacred, and in the Leather Community, honesty and transparency in communication and behavior are paramount, ensuring genuine connections based on trust.


Honor resonates deeply within both Asatru and the Leather Community. Upholding personal honor and the honor of others is key to both cultures, where respect for one’s word, integrity, and the fulfillment of promises are held in the highest regard.


Fidelity is another shared value where loyalty, faithfulness, and commitment to one’s partners or community are vital. Whether in relationships or to one’s chosen path, both Asatru and the Leather Community value devotion and unwavering commitment.


Discipline in Asatru emphasizing self discipline to uphold honor, finds a parallel in the Leather Community’s focus on self control and personal responsibility, essential for maintaining balance and respect within power dynamics.


Hospitality is honored in both worlds. Asatru emphasizes welcoming others into one's home and life, and the Leather Community likewise values a culture of inclusion, support, and mutual care for others within the community.


Self reliance underscores the importance of independence and responsibility in both Asatru and the Leather Community. Both emphasize the ability to stand on one’s own while supporting others in the shared pursuit of mutual respect.


Industriousness promotes hard work, perseverance, and the desire to continuously improve oneself. Both Asatru and the Leather Community respect the dedication to personal growth and the industrious spirit that strengthens both individuals and the community as a whole.


Strength is revered in both traditions. Not just physical strength, but the inner strength to persevere, to confront one’s fears, and to face challenges with resolve. This strength both personal and collective, is a unifying force that helps foster resilience and deeper bonds in both Asatru and the Leather Community.


Both cultures rich in honor and discipline, embrace the importance of authenticity, mutual respect, and personal responsibility. Forming a strong foundation for individuals to grow, learn, and connect in meaningful ways.
