Modern Guide to Heathenry by Galina Krasskova

A Current Guide to Heathenry readers will be able to examine the holy legends of many heathen gods such as Odin, Frigga, Freya, and Thor, as well as get insight into the devotional rituals of modern votaries. Blóts, the most prevalent devotional ceremonies, are thoroughly investigated, with examples provided for personal use. Readers are also exposed to the notion of wyrd, or destiny, which is central to the heathen worldview. Unlike many heathen publications, this one is neither denominational, nor does it attempt to overload the reader with strange Anglo-Saxon or Norse language. A Modern Guide to Heathenry is the ideal introduction for Pagans who want to learn more about the Norse deities, as well as those who are new to heathenry or are just curious about this unusual religion. Those who want to enhance their religious practice may find this book useful in their personal efforts. A 320-page paperback book measuring 6" x 9".
