Norse Wicca

[long_dead_hero]

Well, I've been practicing what i call norse flavored wicca for a while now, and i have to say i enjoy it. if anyone needs some information on the norse gods, norse magic, and anything else of that nature, just send me a message and i will try to answer your questions as best i can.

I dont think Norse Wicca is a proper name for what i practice, it is very clost to odinism or asatru,

Well there is a book by DJ Conway called Norse Magic. I really detested her claims that the People were Wiccans, and how she described their rituals as Wiccan, just like she did in her Celtic Magic book (just copied information and change the mythos). But it does have a good listing of gods and other information if you ignore her ritual suggestions. The Lore is a mix. She has part of the stories, but not the entire encounter, which is understandable seeing how these are small books, and the lore is meant as background information, rather than a solid study in Norse Mythology.

Mahershalalwis is correct. There is a book by D.J. Conway called "Norse Magic" (which I own, along with her "Celtic Magic" one), however, there was no such thing as "Norse" Wicca. If you like the Northern Traditions of paganism, then you should definitely read Diana Paxson's book called "Essential Asatru". She is considered one of the most knowledgable people in the country on the Northern Tradition of paganism, and I highly recommend the book. Happy practices, and Blessed Be!

p.s. My own personal tradition is a blend of Celtic and Norse practices. However, it's still under development at the moment :lol:

Dagillus, I also consider my practice as under construction. I prefer Eclectic at the moment, but I've been veering over to Seax and Norse traditions. I have things that I like from this and there and it makes the transitions a little difficult and the training a little half hazard sometimes. I honor the Goddess and God of 2 different pantheons now, but I would like to have a little more structure. O dear, there goes that Christian leftover aspect. Well only time will tell where my studies and research will lead me. Best of luck to you and your blendings... Mab

Why thank you Dagillus. I have not formally been in with Norse and Celtic, but I can feel that wandering eye of Odin around me sometimes. He tried calling to me a few times but I ignored him, didn't want to have him hanging around. Now I'm dealing with Ganesh try to come back in... all those Gods seem to be fighting over one person :D... Me!!

Well, aren't you popular? You must feel special. :wink2:

Honestly, I wish some Gods would fight over me. I have plenty of Goddesses I connect to, and not a single God...

I follow Celtic Wicca I don't really care if people say it is not a true path but concidering I follow ancient Celtic beliefs but I also follow wiccan beliefs I don't see the problem and soon the name may change again as I am also learning the Druid ways. I feel its my path and I will call myself and path what I want. :)
