Are you tired of hearing "you're doing it wrong"? Norse Witch by Connla Freyjason celebrates the Spirit of the Norse Tradition, fusing past with present towards a more magickal future. Rather than steadily looking backwards into the past, and treating History as the Letter of the Law, this book focuses on building a living, breathing faith that is as vibrant and electric as a Scandinavian night sky. We cannot live as our Ancestors did, nor should we really want to, but we can and should learn from them, and then take those lessons forward into our modern world. That is the soul of what it means to be a Norse Witch; to reclaim the Heidhrinn Heart.Participate in Godfinding; procure, bless, and ensoul your ritual objects; go wight-walking, and reclaim your Heidhrinn Heart, as you journey down this spiritual path, shimmering with the myriad colors of the Northern Lights.

Note: those two words are pronounced exactly the same way. That's because they are etymologically identical, stemming from the same Old Norse root: Heidhr. The original Heidhr was Gullveig, after her "trial" at the hands of the Aesir (and specifically Odin Himself). Heidhr means "bright" or "clear", and is encountered so often throughout the Eddas and Sagas as the name of various volvas (or seidhrworkers; i.e., Norse Witches), that this suggests it may have become a title for such practitioners of Norse magick. Over time, as Christianity came to dominate the spiritual landscape of the Norse lands, the word Heidhrinn sprang up to denote those who still followed the "Old Ways"; the Pagan Path of the Norse. Today, that term survives as Heathen. Though often mistranslated as meaning "of the heath"-people who lived on the fringes of society in the countryside, and, therefore, clung to the "Old Ways"-in truth, the very word Heathen is actually a combination of the word Heidhr and the Old Norse suffix -inn, which is used to turn nouns into adjectives. Therefore, to be Heidhrinn is to be like Heidhr: a bright, clear, some might even say shining witch." -Connla Freyjason, Norse Witch: Reclaiming the Heidhrinn Heart, Chapter One: Northern Lights
