Achterflaptekst:

A guide to working with the runes as living spirits and Otherworld allies.

Living Runes provides a thorough examination of the Norse runes that will strengthen your understanding of these mysteries. Galina Krasskova - one of the leading scholars and practitioners of the Northern Traditions - begins with an explication of the story of Odin, the Norse god who won the runes by sacrificing himself on the World Tree. She continues by examining each of the individual runes in turn, both the Elder Futhark and the lesser-known Anglo-Saxon Futhorc. Each rune is studied not only from a historical viewpoint but also from the perspective of a modern practitioner. You will be introduced to the practice of galdr as well as the magical use of the runes, the proper way to sacrifice to them, and how to read them for divination.

Galina Krasskova is a free-range tribalist Heathen who has been a priest of Odin for more than a decade. She is a gifted rune-master and occultist, and is heavily involved in the reconstruction of Northern Tradition shamanism. Krasskova holds a diploma in interfaith ministry from The New Seminary in New York City, a bachelor's in religious studies from Empire State College in New York City, and a master's in religious studies through NYU, and is a member of the American Academy of Religion. She has presented at prestigious academic conferences including those held at Harvard, Fordham University, and Ohio State University. She is the author of several books, including Northern Tradition for the Solitary Practitioner and A Modern Guide to Heathenry.
