I'm from Bavaria personally and only recently started getting into folk magick. I feel as though we don't have many traditions because Bavaria was and is very christian. I personally work with Germanic Deities but I don't shy away from Celtic gods because my family is from the North. The other half of my family came to germany during the time of WW2 from Sudetenland and Poland. So I dabble in slawic traditions, mostly through symbolism, sometimes. And the Roman empire had also an impact on this area, so I actually worshipped Roman deities. Through that, egyptian traditions also travelled here, so did greek ones. I have a hard time choosing only one, since I don't want to offend anyone, especially with germanys history. So yeah, this is my little rant.
I might also add that christian folk magick is very much a thing bit I don't practice.
I recommend the book "Heimische Hexenkunst" by Claire if you want to geberally hear about german folk magick. However with this book you need to do a bit of research yourself in addition.

~I just found your channel and your content is so helpful on my journey of learning German folk magic and finding where my ancestoral heritage in Germany is. Thank you for all this information! Also I love your accent and I'm sorry English is so dumb XD

[@De_Spoekenkyker]

Tautreten sounds like it may have given rise to the "Kneippbad" phenomenon--where you walk around in this Kneippbad, in water over your ankles. It's not dew but it seems like the same idea. The Kneippbad is sort of late 1800s medicine. Quark is a sort of relative of cream cheese. Being American with a German mom (my mother tongue is litterally German), growing up we refered to cream cheese as "Amerikanisher Quark". In Chile, where I live quark is sold under the name ricotta--which seems very very close.

North Germanic/Scandinavian folk magic is today known as trolldom and svartkonst 😊

[@SarenthDricten]

I also have read folkyngi as magic/folk magic in addition to these.

Ich bin aus Niedersachsen (Hannover-Area) und wohne in Düsseldorf. Sollte ich eher nach dem gehen, wo ich und meine Familie her sind, oder wo ich jetzt wohne?

[@De_Spoekenkyker]

Viele verändern ihren magischen Weg leicht, wenn sie in eine neue Region ziehen, aber haben immer noch bestimmte Bezüge zu ihrer Heimat, die sie miteinbeziehen. Vielleicht wäre das ja etwas für dich? Letzenendes kannst nur du wissen was sich für dich richtig anfühlt

My grandmother passed down a poultice of milk soaked bread for removing slivers that works very well. She said it was “Native American” from our “native ancestor” (that doesn’t exist, American family history) 😅 probably not Native American since it’s made of bread and mil 😂 in hind sight it’s probably from Germany or Scandinavia where the two sides of her family are from

[@De_Spoekenkyker]

Honestly a poultice with milk and bread is one of the most German folk remedies I could think of😅

[@dizzygiggleflix257]

Is there any surviving Prussian traditions?

[@De_Spoekenkyker]

I'm sure of it, although I personally haven't looked into that very deeply. You're most likely going to find Prussian folk practices in immigrant communities who lived in areas where they weren't being prosecuted. I think I've heard that there are some parts of South America with a lot of Prussian diaspora
