The prophet's dictionary guide to the supernatural

Germanic peoples. This war god is known for his affinity for intoxication. Typically, beer, soma, and mead were his drinks of choice and the hallucinogenic mushroom his favorite intoxicant. The god thoroughly possesses his offspring and promotes war and savagery as part of his ritual. Wotan is symbolized by drink horns and drunkenness is a precursor of a worshipper’s service to him. His warriors resort to drunkenness to divest themselves of all inhibitions that would hinder their ability to become possessed of the god and brutalize their opponents always seen as his enemies. This morphing deity changes shapes to facilitate his conquests. The snake, the serpent, the dragon, and the werewolf are his favorite life forms. The single state that dramatizes Wotan’s presence is frenzied madness expressed in bloodlust. His members succumb to it to commit heinous atrocities on humanity. Adolph Hitler and the Nazi movement are said to have received their inspiration from Wotan. See Werewolf and Swastika. The prophet would do well to understand this spirit’s influence to identify demonic powers and to deliver those so possessed or seduced. 1641.
