The Norse tradition versus black book magic: Each tradition focuses on different aspects. When practicing within a specific tradition, it is crucial to follow its rules. If you choose to practice another, you must respect its guidelines, and it is generally best not to mix the two. Where these traditions cannot be integrated, it is wise not to force a blend. You must thoroughly understand both mythologies and be able to discern where they align and where they clearly do not.
The Norse tradition and black book magic rest on entirely different principles. The Norse tradition is the tradition of free individuals, a tradition of warriors who were never subjugated. In contrast, black book magic is rooted in Christianity. It is a fusion of Christianity and paganism, but more specifically, it represents the darker aspects of Christianity.
At its core, black book magic remains a form of Christianity, albeit its underground, shadow side. Because it is based on Judeo-Christianity, it stands in direct opposition to the Norse tradition.

Thanks guys & Girls

For Thurseblot durning the first full moon of the year.

Hail to the ancient Jotnar,
Guardians of the wild and untamed,
I offer a feast of meat, eggs and honey mead from my land.
To honor your strength and wisdom.

Thor, son of Jord, who battles with might,
Loki, trickster of the frost,
Skadi, fierce goddess of the mountains,
I acknowledge your kin, the giants of old.

May this offering be a bridge
Between the realms of man and Jotunheim,
Bringing peace, understanding, and respect.
Hail to the Jotnar, ancient and enduring.

May Odin inspire you , May Freyja guide you, May Thor give you strength , May Tyr give you bravery, May Loki handle your enemies and blessed be.

For those Heathens in the Northeast of the USA, if you are interested in Traditional Heathenry (basically Germanic tribal "religion" for people descended from the Germanic/Nordic tribes) please look into the Irminfolk Odinist Community and their annual Folkish Summer Hallowing events in the late summer. It is an event held in NE Pennsylvania with members travelling from all over the US and world to attend. The universalist pagans will label groups like this "Nazis," because they don't want us to know the Truth about our culture and they want you to stay away from connecting with our Ancestors and Old Gods, Old Ways of life. Instead, they want you to believe our Ancestors were shield maidens and rainbow Vikings, full of diversity and inclusion, and all that modern jazz we know to be garbage and BS. In 2025, for possibly the first time anywhere in the world, all three of our main Gods will be reunited in Idol form when the Irminfolk unveil Odin and Thor, finally joined by Freyr. These deities are nearly 6 ft. tall and gilded in gold. It will be amazing to be in Their presence. Join me, my friends! If anyone has questions or would like more info, just ask here or DM me.

Björk hasn't been releasing many songs, lately, in Icelandic. I've been listening to her music since her album 'Homogenic'. I was in junior high school at that time.

I have been studying the lyrics for her song, 'Verandi' for some time now. Noticed that the phrasing for "eye" is almost the same as in German.

I took two or three years (I can't remember) of Latin in high school. Studied some German at university. I tend to slowly work at languages. Was studying Cyrillic at one point in time.

Hafandi eyrað í vasanum
Hafandi augun í skónum
Ástarbréf í maganum
Vönd af kossum í munninum
Kyrr!
Hafandi haf af girnd
Hafandi loðna löngun um mjaðmirnar
Hafandi sjón sem að sér þegar er slökkt
Og gott bil milli fótanna
Kyrr!

Sannarlega blíð jól! Þigg þù aldregi bölvalðan mjöðr, skål!

Blíð jól sé þú ok í hugum góðum! Þórr þik þiggi, Óðinn þik eigi. Til árs ok friða, skål!

May you have a blessed Yule and be in good spirits! May þórr protect you, Óðinn keep you. To a good year and peace, skål!

Ask veit ek standa,
heitir Yggdrasill,
hár baðmr, ausinn
hvíta auri;
þaðan koma döggvar,
þærs í dala falla,
stendr æ yfir grænn
Urðarbrunni.

Gestaþáttr ~ Stanza ~ 034
To a false friend the footpath winds
Though his house be on the highway.
To a sure friend there is a short cut,
Though he lives a long way off.
