Experiencing the landscape of the runes in Bodo
After basing my life on the Younger Futhark runes, and the Norse pantheon I have finally managed a trip to Norway. We arrived (I...

My first meeting of "rage" Loki
So, I am back from my small annual lokk-seidr retreat in the barns, and yet again I am reeling at how deep we went. I plan to write a...
A trouble-some journey with Tyr
Spirit guides are funny things, to me they have as much importance in my life as friends and family. I have taken the time to get to know...
