Emma Karlsson grew up in Kungsträdgården, Sweden, surrounded by Scandinavian heritage. Tales of Loki were more than just stories told to her at bedtime; they were accounts of what had happened long ago in a land where frost giants dwelled and warred with the armies of Odin. She used to dress up as Freya and ride a makeshift chariot that she made by tying her cats to a cart. She was often found outside sitting under the Spruce tree in the backyard dreaming about the gods and goddesses who inhabited a wondrous, enchanted world, perfusing it with their magic. Her love of Norse mythology and culture helped her develop a robust working knowledge of the religion and its roots. In an attempt to connect with her ancestors and form a mutually respectful and loving bond with nature, she became a follower of Asatru, one of the modern interpretations of Paganism. She has devoted much of her learning to reading runes and understanding what it means to be a follower of the Old Norse Paganism belief systems. She continues to develop her knowledge base to share with her readers around the world. She believes that the magic of the world around us is precious and plentiful enough for all of us to experience. When not writing or researching, Emma loves to immerse herself in nature, formulate cosmetics and natural remedies, dance, and spend time with family and friends!

Guide to Norse Paganism

A Comprehensive Guide to Explore Viking History and Culture, Myths and Legends of the Gods & Goddess, Creation of the Universe, Runes, Rituals, Symbols, and Divination.

Emma Karlsson

Explore the roots of Viking culture and traditions as you embark on a Norse mythology, mysticism, and magic journey.

How did the universe come into being?

Was it a creation of a God that shaped the cosmos in a matter of days?

Or was it the slaying of a giant at the hands of three brothers that gave rise to everything we know?

That last question might seem odd, but it forms the very foundation of one of the richest and most fascinating religions that flourished in Europe during the Early Middle Ages.

Very different from monotheistic religions and prominent in the Scandinavian regions, Norse Paganism was a collection of customs, beliefs, and sagas that defined the Viking way of life – full of magic, mysticism, and an ever-expanding mythos.

Today, however, you’d recognize the elements of Norse Paganism populating the fabric of pop culture – in historical TV shows, superhero movies, video games, and even novels – retelling the sagas of gods such as Odin, Thor, Loki, and more.

But Norse Paganism packs more within its intricate layers of stories and cultural practices – it is a melting pot of high values, interwoven with nature and a true sense of freedom.

If so, look no further. Norse Magic, Runes & Mythology is the ideal guide that will take you through the past and present of the mysterious, fascinating, symbolic world of Norse paganism.

Norse practices, rites, and rituals are far from limited to a bygone era.

Rather, the knowledge they contain has been passed on from generation to generation, and you, too, can harness the power of Norse magic in your daily life.

You can become a practicing Norse pagan, interpret and leverage the messages contained in the runes, and carry out a variety of rites and rituals that will enable you to feel more empowered.

You have always wanted to predict your future with runes and use this knowledge to change the outcome to a favorable one, but perhaps you thought that their language and symbolism were too complex. In reality, rune reading is subjective and personal, and you can learn and leverage the powerful knowledge they contain.

If you always thought that Norse magic belonged exclusively to the Gods, think again. Magic was and continues to be part of the Norse pagan community, and you can use it to divine the future, ask the Gods for something you desire or lend tradition and beauty to ceremonies such as your wedding.
