Asatru is a modern pagan tradition whose roots lie in the ancient myths, folklore, sagas, and historical artifacts of those who lived in pre-Christian times in what is now Iceland, Scandinavia, Scandinavian-influenced Scotland, Germany, and other parts of northern Europe. In Asatru, Erin Lale provides listeners with an accessible introduction to this heathen religion, one of the fastest growing religions in the United States and Europe. The book includes these key topics:

  • A brief exploration of Asatru's mythology and prehistory, its contact with Rome, and its history up to the present day
  • A comprehensive survey of Asatru's many gods and goddesses
  • The rituals, including holiday celebrations, toasting rituals, weddings, and other life events
  • The moral virtues of a true Asatruar: courage, honor, loyalty, truth, hospitality, industriousness, self-discipline, self-reliance, and steadfastness
  • The magical practices of rune divination, spells, and bersarkrgangr
  • A look at the "universalist" and "folkish" interpretations of the Asatru tradition and the "hijacking" of the symbolism of the northern European religions in the 19th and early 20th centuries

While its nice to hear a heathen oriented book on Frisian gods and trans inclusivity, its a shame how some things just don't make sense (like equating Fehu the rune of cattle and wealth to the Fire of Muspelheim, when we literally have a fire rune, Kenaz/Cen). Also interesting how the primary reason many disregard Thorsons (Flowers) work being his supporting openly fascist organisations isnt mentioned but instead is thrown at being cuz he left the faith. Atleast this was structured and aimed at being a practical guide but I would not recommend this book to anyone even if they can get it free with subscription. Atleast the narrator is someone I always enjoy listening to and this was a short read.

dissapointing
