The stories of Odin, Thor, Freyja, Tyr, Loki, Heimdall, and the other gods and goddesses
The Nine Noble Virtues, The Six Fold Goals, Five Further Thews
Wyrd, Orlog, and the Heathen soul
The Nine Worlds
Runes and their meanings
Symbols and sacred objects
Holidays and seasonal celebrations
Blóts and Sumbles
Handfasting and marriage tradition
Viking funeral customs
The beings of Norse cosmology
A pronunciation guide and reference section
And Much, Much More

Whether you are simply curious about Norse Paganism, returning to your ancestral traditions, or looking for a dependable reference to accompany years of study, The Modern Heathen provides hundreds of pages of practical knowledge designed to educate, inspire, and encourage further exploration.

This is more than a book about Viking history. It is a guide for living Heathen values in the modern world.

W. S. Hurst is a practicing Heathen and dedicated Volva who follows the ways of her ancestors by incorporating the Nine Noble Virtues into her life on a daily basis.
