The complete guide to help you learn about the origin of Norse Paganism, Celtic folklore, and Norse magic and runes.

Have you watched the TV series Vikings and imagined yourself sailing on a longship and conquering new lands?

Do you think it looks thrilling and exciting to have lived in such a primitive manner and living every day as if it were your last? Or does it just look cold and violent, filled with bloodshed and conflict?

The truth is that most media representations of Norse and Celtic times are based on fiction with a smattering of truth and are embellished with a healthy dose of imagination. There are very few written accounts from these societies because the information was passed on by word of mouth. Stories were handed down through the generations and became the sagas we know today but how much of that information is accurate is debatable.

Did you know Asatru, the religion of the Norse, is one of the largest growing religions today? You don't need to be Scandinavian or even European to join. Their ranks are growing, with people around the world turning to a more organic way of worshipping.

This book is all about Norse and Celtic beliefs and how they are just as relevant, if not more so today, than it was over a millennium ago.
