Guide To Norse Pagan Holidays: Unlock the Ancient Magic of Norse Pagan Holidays (A Guide to Norse Paganism, Mythology, Runes, Rituals, Rites of Passage & How to Incorporate into Your everyday life)

Step into a world full of mystique, gods, and festivities, and bring their magic to empower your everyday… It’s 803 A.D. You’re at the prow of a Viking longship, waiting to make landfall with your fellow Norse warriors. The cold air breaches your lungs, the jagged Fjords calm your heart, and the rolling hills ahead of you make you realize that you are home. And the first thought in your mind? The festivities that await you – a battle cry for all-father Odin, a reverence for the magic of Freya, and a celebration for the protection offered by Thor. This might seem out of touch today, but it was very much the life led by Norse people during the Viking age. The Norse culture, at its height, was a celebration of the people of Scandinavia and The British Isles, who practiced a religion as hardy as the lands they came from. And within it were festivals – traditions born from the magic of nature – deeply woven into the fabric of Norse society. Each of these sacred celebrations was a reminder of the cyclical nature of life, and of the gods and goddesses who channeled their elemental magic and bestowed blessings upon humankind. But did you know that this magic is not lost? And that you can practice Norse paganism to channel this magic into your own life? How, you ask? This book is your portal into the magic of Norse Pagan holidays and festivals, and it’ll take you by the hand into a world that is deeply entwined with the power of nature, with countless blessings of Norse gods and goddesses. And inside this portal, you will discover: A comprehensive guide to celebrating Norse paganism – explore the festivities of nature, people, and magic deeply rooted in Norse customs throughout the year A quick guide to the months, days, and the cyclical nature of the Norse calendar (did you know that modern weekdays are named after Norse gods?)
