Book Review

"Pagan Portals: Loki - Trickster and Transformer" by Dagulf Loptson

I'll start with content notes for the book: blood as part of rituals, mentioning of animal sacrifice in ancient times, mentioning of animal parts as optional part of the practices (hearts, snake skin sheds)

In this book, the author presents the often misunderstood or even demonised Norse deity Loki as a trickster, an agent of change, a transformative god and a speaker of uncomfortable truths, among other things.

Each chapter contains a myth about Loki, which the authors retells in a modern, easy to read language and he also interprets the myth, often metaphorically. Also in each chapter, there is a practical part, with a ritual and some things you can craft and put on your altar if you choose to have one. There are also suggestions for a daily practice, an interesting section about "Nine Lokean Virtues", and a Lokean Dedication Ritual - for instance if you choose (or are chosen by) Loki to be your patron deity.

In many of the rituals the authors suggest to take a drop of blood from one's finger, as this is/was common in Scandinavian folk magic, but he also gives an alternative for that. One of the rituals is about shadow work basically, but the author calls it demon work, and I guess this is meant as a reference to the "inner demons" we all have to some extend.

The book closes with recommended reading, some of them devotional works, and a bibliography (also with several old or ancient texts)

My conclusion: This book provides a very good starting point if you are interested in working with/ venerating/ worshipping Loki.

This page is from the book "Norse Gods" by Johan Egerkrans and it's one of the prettiest books I own 🖤 Collecting art books - whether from movies or about mythology - has become somewhat of a hobby of mine. I just love books! Skull is secondhand

I’m delighted to announce that I have a contract to write a book all about bird magic and folklore! I’m passionate about birds and lucky enough to live somewhere with safe and respectful access to hundreds of amazing species, so this is a project I’m extremely excited about. Watch this space!

Looking for recommendations for a good book on runes. Asking for a character in my book!

I've been using runes since I was 14 years old, and I've only one old, out of date book...I need something better for my character to look up.

“All magic originates from the will.” -Freya Aswynn Some light reading this morning. Absolutely love the soul behind this book. It’s so refreshing to read a book by such a strong woman. 🌿 I’d heard such wonderful things about her, and after watching a video of her reading runes, I had to get a copy for myself. #freyaaswynn #volva #vitki #seidr #magic #heathen #pagan #asatru #vanatru #odin #freyja #paganbooks #norse #nordic #oldways #runes #divination #futhark (at Missoula, Montana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEE6yFKBczd/?igshid=15klou17eoc3l

WIP~ Progress~ Divination page My designs begin using my photoshop or pixelmator pro depending what mood I’m in lol 😆 Once my customer is happy with the digital artwork. I then sketch the design onto tracing paper. I do this because the Favini paper for the book is really fine and creates heavy pencil smudges that then need erasing so I want to keep smudges minimal. As you can see further detail is added once the design is traced onto the page. It’s a long process but it really works for me. Love love love the latest design Divination 😍😍 #artbymandyuk #artprocess #artistinthestudio #commissionedart #paganbooks #bookofshadows https://www.instagram.com/p/CZg_gKpqS7w/?utm_medium=tumblr

Book review „Brigid: History, Mystery, and Magick of the Celtic Goddess“ by Courtney Weber If you are interested in working with/venerating/worshipping Brigid or if you are already doing so, this book is a treasure trove to find out more about this Celtic goddess. The author goes deep into the historical background and quotes numerous traditional tales, myths and prayers. The Catholic saint St. Brigid is also a recurring theme. Brigid is portrayed here as a versatile goddess who is connected with the earth, blacksmithing, healing, poetry, various animals, spring, justice matters and much more. The author also has included some personal anecdotes of her journey with Brigid, for instance some travels to Ireland and how this book came to be. Throughout the book there are several rituals, reflection questions and the last chapter is devoted to numerous spells with a wide variety of themes, e.g. protection, money, love, banishing, house blessings, justice and some more. Some of the spells are quite simple and easy, others are more elaborate and there are also a few group rituals included which can be adapted to the needs of the respective group.

🇫🇷 Mille mercis aux éditions @alliancemagique pour agrandir aussi généreusement ma liste de lecture ! J’ai tout particulièrement hâte d’entrer dans la lecture de l’opus consacré à Ostara, étant donné que depuis mes premiers pas sur la voie des célébrations saisonnières (il y a près de 18 ans maintenant), ce sabbat et moi sommes plus ou moins en conflit. Mes célébrations d’Ostara, quand elles ne sont pas totalement ratées, ont globalement été systématiquement gâchées par des facteurs divers, quand elles ne sont pas tout bêtement tombées aux oubliettes. J’espère que cet ouvrage m’aidera à rectifier le tir ! 🌱🌷🍃🌸 #books #bookworm #booklover #read #reading #readingtime #readaholic #paganbooks #sabbats #alliancemagique #alliancemagiqueeditions #ostara #ostaraiscoming #wheeloftheyear #magic #witch #witchcraft #pipe #hobbitpipe #hobbit #readinglist #magicreading #pagan #paganism
