Asatru Academics

A continuation of Types of Old Norse Magic… this time focused on galdr! I talk about its practical uses and its super fancy special meter.

A former science teacher explains… What is magic? Has it been proven to exist? What types of magic did Norse people in the Viking Age do? What the heck is oneiromancy? What’s up with Ægishjálmur? How did Vikings curse people?

Enchanting, magical symbols, dream magic, and curses explained in this episode. 5 more types up next!

Völuspá is the treasured monolog of a cheeky witch verbally pulverizing Odin by recounting his most painful events--past and future. You guys requested I read some of the The Lore in modern, regular English… so no better place to start than with super foundational Völuspá. It is my second favorite piece of The Lore mostly because of the huge amount of attitude. She is attitude goals. She is a witch with a capital “B”.
