• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The myths tell of gods and giants. This book reveals the rituals that shaped their world.

For centuries, the true practices of Norse religion have been a puzzle, pieced together from conflicting sagas and silent artifacts. This guide finally puts the pieces together, reconstructing the visceral reality of their sacred world.

Inside, you will discover:

• The true purpose of the sacrificial blót, from the great feasts at Uppsala to the intimate household offering.
• The binding power of the sumbel, where oaths spoken over the horn shaped personal and tribal destinies.
• The intricate arts of the völva, the methods of seiðr divination, and the potent magic of runes.
• The sacred roles of animals, the powerful rhythm of seasonal festivals, and the living presence of ancestors in their daily lives.

Grounded in evidence but written for the curious mind, this is not just another history. It is a clear, comprehensive, and indispensable guide to the practices that gave the Norse world its meaning.
