“Galdrbok offers a complete system for accessing the nine otherworlds of the Northwest European shamanic world tree Yggdrasil. The initiatory system in Galdrbok is inspired by the spiritual legacy of Heathen Northwest European communities of the migration age. Galdrbok maps the altered conscious states which enable shamanic travel – by means of scrying (‘to descry’/‘foresee’/ crystal gaze), galdr (‘sung spells’), runic mediation and other powerful techniques, you can enter ecstasy and 'walk between the worlds' in the footsteps of Woden and Freyja, the Northern shamanic deities par excellence”
The LIMITED TENTH ANNIVERSARY DELUXE EDITION, is freshly typeset, revised and expanded, with a new foreword and afterword, new poetry, an appendix on the plant-ally Mugwort and the Old English ‘Nine Herbs Charm’, an expanded bibliography taking account of literature in the field over the last decade, and many new illustrations.
This handsome volume is printed on 100gsm ivory wove archival quality paper. The 400+ pages are sewn and bound between hand-made marbled end papers, with top and tail bands to the binding. The boards are bound in forest green cloth with a luxury forest green leather quarter binding. The title ‘Galdrbok’ is blocked in gilt horizontally across the spine. The book is held within a custom-made forest green cloth slipcase lined with black paper.
The edition is strictly limited to 81 copies only and will be published at the winter solstice 2015. Each copy will be hand-numbered and signed by the authors.
