The concept of Eihwaz is deeply rooted within Ancestral Spirit and Memory, the Power of the Runes, and the Forces of Nature. I started Eihwaz in the winter of 2006/07, after writing the very first song of Yule Galdr. It was my first recorded acoustic work, and after being very happy with the Result, I began to form all the concepts in my head. For the name I chose Eihwaz, which came very naturally, and the more time goes by, the more I realize how perfect this name was for my project and all the meanings behind it. Eihwaz is the 12th Rune in the Elder Futhark, its shape is very special to me, and I have spent more time meditating on this Rune than the others (for now), and it continues to unfold for me.
I began to write more songs, and after compiling a few I came up with the concept for my first album, Will of Yggdrasil, a very metaphorical concept focusing on my Beliefs and our connections in Life to all the Nature around us. Not only does this album have a deep meaning for me, but it is also the perfect intro for Eihwaz being that the meaning is very linked.
After writing the songs for Will of Yggdrasil, I began to write various other songs, not doing much in the way of recording until I wrote Ostaralied, and once I wrote this song I knew the concept of my upcoming album. I am currently working on this second release, and still working ..ing the recording of the first album. I will be focusing on all German Lyrics, and once again very Spiritual themes and moods, Music to move the soul and fill the mind with wondrous and beautiful visions.
Eihwaz is my deepest Passion in Life, and I will continue working on my Music, furthering it, ascending it (and myself) to greater heights and feelings. May my Music move you, and my imagery speak to you in familiar yet forgotten tongues, and guide you through the Beauty that is our Life, our History, and our Heritage!
Eihwaz ist ein Akustik und Folk Musik Projekt, welches im Winter 2006/07, von Anwend (Der ewige Wanderer, Waldweg) gegründet worden ist.
Die Eihwaz-Rune wird in Verbindung gebracht mit der Weltenesche Yggdrasil und gilt als der Geist unseres Daseins. Es ist ein sehr folkiges Konzept, es symbolisiert den Geist des Feuers, unserer selbst und unserer Rasse – das Blut, das unaufhörlich mit Kraft und Stärke durch die wahren Heiden fließt. Wie die Nornen sich um Yggdrasil kümmern, so pflegen sie auch unser Schicksal. Ich grüße die, die mich zudem gemacht haben was ich bin. Ohne sie, ohne die Entdeckung von ihnen und dem Schicksal, das sie für mich bereithalten, würde ich nicht das sein was ich heute bin und dieses Projekt würde nicht existieren. Heil den Göttern unseres Glaubens! Heil Wyrd und den Nornen! Heil den Waldgeistern! Heil all den Elfen und Feen! Möget ihr alle diese Weihung hören!
