"Yet, heroes, ancestors and landvættir are too often overlooked in modern Heathenry."
This is a very important takeaway.
Other forms of polytheism and Indo-European paganism hold the land spirits, ancestors, and heroes on high regard with their tradtions practice and spirituality.
This is how all European traditions were and should be.
This doesn't mean disregarding the high divine. But that our most direct connection is through the nature around us and our bloodlines.

A little hymn of praise to Woden based on the Nine Herbs Galdr:
Hail Lord Woden, Prevailer against The Nine Black Malevolences!
Glory to He who Hung Holy in the High Heavens,
The Wise Lord who sends Venom-foes to do battle against Glory-fleers!
Praise to He who, with Radiant Branches, smote into nine The Slithering Wyrm,
The Loathsome Shadow that fared over the land.
May The Serpent kill none and find shelter never.
May The Nine Glory Branches that pierce The Adder wax ever in might!

“Now, as for myself, I shall receive the faith in Norway on that understanding alone that I shall give some little worship to Thor the next winter when I get back to Iceland."
~Laxdæla saga
When sagas and ecclesiastical records made claims of mass conversions, this is often what’s truly being described, and how Grimm found people still worshipping Odin in remote reaches of Scandinavia and Germany in the 19th Century.
