AIYA and Greetings Eldalië (Elfkind) and Elendili (Elf Friends)! Since we did some recent changes here, click HERE or on “Blog” above if you are looking for our articles and updates.

Thank you so much for visiting the home of Elven Spirituality! This is Tië eldaliéva, meaning the Elven Path, or the Path of the Star-people.

The co-founders came together online for the purpose of creating a spiritual path that is based on the Elven viewpoint put forth in Professor JRR Tolkien‘s Middle-Earth stories, collectively known as the “Legendarium” and include The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. However, most of the materials used for the creation and practice of the Elven Path are the posthumous publications, which would be considered the origins or the historical back-stories. These especially include The Silmarillion, the Lost Tales I and II, Unfinished Tales, and Morgoth’s Ring (Vol. X of the History of Middle-Earth, or HoME, series).

The reasons for doing so are varying due to the individual, but overall, there is a prevalent understanding that Tolkien’s stories, which he began writing in 1917, are a valid mytho-history and after applying this deep and touching material to our current spiritual understandings, it has been discovered the materials do indeed relay all one needs – and if there are outside ideas present already that help fill it in, so much the better. A great explanation can be found by reading Calantirniel’s Interview with Author Emily Carding, of which most is published in her book published through Llewellyn, Faerie Craft!

This is not a Role-Playing Game (RPG), but a genuine spiritual practice that although best practiced as a standalone, it can enhance certain understandings of any and all spiritual backgrounds that is based on love, balance and the flow of nature.

While we welcome those who are on an identity discovery path (i.e. types that are exploring “elvenness” through the otherkin paradigm), the actual intentions of the Elven Path are toward the PATH itself, rather than the identity of the traverser.

Tië eldaliéva is all about education and outreach, to bring awareness to the spiritual seeker of the existence of this deep and beautiful spiritual path that will speak to the hearts of the right people that wish to follow such a path. Please explore our blog/articles, calendar and resource pages, which also include Elvish linguistic learning sources.

Thank you for stopping by! Feel free to grab two gifts from us JUST for joining our Email List to stay updated with news on the highly-anticipated Elven Spirituality book!

Hi friends, I created web and I want to dedicate it to the Valar, so I call, if there is someone who has serious not the fan relationship with the gods of Middlearth, I need you. I have good informations about Melkor, some about Manwe and feanturi, but the rest is missing and that needs to change. I have enough of Tolkien’s informations but I need informations of those, who really know th the Valar.
Contact me, if you can help with the webpage “temple of the Valar”
use message to author: http://bila-hvezda.blog.cz/en

  Hi Morell! I will contact you about possible resources for your project, but I do wish to mention that we do not celebrate the dark one once called Melkor (and later became Morgoth), as he is not of the Valar after this happened. We do remember him though, if for nothing else than to learn from the stories. Thanks for stopping by this page today! Calantirniel

    Hi, sorry for so late reply, I missed your message. A lot of work, but still I’m eager to cooperate. Good think is that bigger part of page is done, at least in matter of webcode. I keep continuing no matter the dark magic atacks. No matter who the enemy is, it can’t stop us.
    I must also make one thing clear: no interest in christian texts. I work for the Valar, not for the church of christianity. I also do have problem with description of Maiar and Valar as the angles. The reason is that who compares them so is in danger of working with angels instead of these beings, and that has it’s affects.
    What can be contributed: original immages, texts to honot the Valar prayments, rituals, myths and legends, etc., texts about the elves, also links to music on youtube, which allows to feel energy of specific Vala.
    also anything else, which is usable and fits.
    
    You can visit the already working part of the temple.

    You can check my progress on my DA page. I keep my followers informed on this page.

    Thank you for your post Morrell, it appears you have a good start! While we encourage those of any faith to participate, including Christianity, we can certainly understand and appreciate your offering will match others’ connections with Tolkien’s amazing Middle-Earth body of work called the Legendarium! Hope you have some visitors come your way!

    Thanks for your kind words, friend.
    I have my reasons for that. I’m not enemy, but after some speeches with archangel Azrael I know enough to be aware of this.
    Christianity wants everyone. I only those, who I know will be helped this way, But to some it may cause damage. That is something I must be aware of!
    I hope to help many, but the truth is, that I’ll be lucky to find few beings and I’m very unique.
    Also one small request. Can I please place your freebies from this web to this temple as free downloads?The files will be of course credited.

    I can give permission with my document, which is the Varda story. However, I do not own solely the copyright. I would need to ask permission of the others who helped. But in any case, I have an idea 🙂 Look in your email box soon, okay?

I’m but a lurker, because I get lost in technology and can’t seem to use my time properly. I found you just today and am delighted you are here. There’s a flame burning in my heart for a calendar that is more in harmony with our natural world. I have also come to understand that my soul is an elven one (am so happy not to be alone – God bless our beautiful elven sojourners on earth!), so I found you while searching out the elven loa. I would like to know how it is that our people at Home determine the first day of the new year. In my explorations I found you. I very rarely get online so you may not hear from me again, but you have already blessed me – thanks so much for being. I just wanted to let you know that yes, we are out there.
