Gnosis Diary: Life as a Heathen
My personal experiences, including religious and spiritual experiences, community interaction, general heathenry, and modern life on my heathen path, which is Asatru.
Cover Art Reveal for New Asatru Book
I'm excited to reveal the cover art and title for my upcoming book! Asatru: A Beginner's Guide to the Heathen Path is coming Spring 2020 from Red Wheel / Weiser.
The more I look at this art, the more I like it. I don't know who the artist is, but they must know a lot about magical symbolism.
This book is a longer, updated version of my out-of-print classic Asatru For Beginners. New and improved! Now with more gods!
I've added to the history chapter so the new book covers the rise of the modernist movement within Asatru, which is new since Asatru For Beginners was first published around the turn of the millenium. There has also been new scholarship since then, and I've expanded the section on the gods, as well as other sections. I've replaced some outdated language and concepts with the latest practices. I've added a chapter on holidays based on my Heathen Calendar. This book is still in the editing phase with the publisher, so it doesn't have ARCs ready for reviewers yet; I'll let you know when they're available, and keep all of you updated on book news.
