Rites of Odin by

Rites of Odin by Fitch, Ed

The ancient Norse knew a rough magic drawn from the beautiful grandeur of vast mountains and deep forests, from the power of rolling oceans and thundering storms. This religious and magical system of explorers, farmers, warriors and hunters went with the Vikings to the New World and was practiced across Europe and eastward to the steppes of Central Asia. The rites and beliefs that sustained the Norsemen have been brought compellingly into the present in “The Rites of Odin.” Here is a complete source book on Odinism which brings the ancient values back to these turbulent times. The material is authentic and the presentation is poetic and powerful. This book opens the door for the solitary seeker, for groups who have chosen to follow the Old Ways and for families who wish to be unified by warm and close ceremonies. This book puts forth the message, in rites, practice and background lore, that you are uniquely important. You are in charge of your own destiny. The family and friends who constitute your “extended family” are also important: by working together and helping one another, all of you can prosper and be happy. Paperback, 333 pages.

Northern Mysteries & Magick

Northern Mysteries & Magick by Aswynn, Freya

They comprise a powerful system of divination & a path to the subconscious forces operating in your life.

It is the first to offer an extensive presentation of rune concepts, mythology & magickal applications inspired by Dutch/Friesian traditional lore. Discover how the feminine Mysteries of the North are represented in the runes, & how each of the major deities of Northern Europe still live in the collective consciousness of people of Northern European descent. Contains an updated & expanded section on the feminine Mysteries, reviving the sorely neglected feminine aspect of the Norse Mythology.
