A member of a local pagan Facebook group I am on is
wondering if there is a faith based on Old Saxon
beliefs specifically, in the same way that Asatru
is based on Old Norse beliefs.

I suggested Seax-Wica, also known as Saxon-Wica, founded
by Raymond Buckland in 1973, but then he said he is looking
for something pre-modern-Wiccan beliefs.

Does anyone on this newsgroup know of any
online or print sources related to old Saxon
pagan beliefs?

Thing is modern Asatru is pan-Germanic and as such not
specific to Norse. That's a fallacy. Saxon is also
pan-Germanic and so every bit as much central to our
modern ways. Google for Theod and Anglo-Saxon Heathenry.
Plenty to be had.
