Green Rûna, The Runemaster's Notebook: Shorter Works of Edred Thorsson

By Edred Thorsson

Book Overview

From the late 1970s to the early 1980s Edred Thorsson produced a significant volume of material which was published in rather obscure ?satr? or Odinist journals such as The Runestonein the USA and the Raven Bannerin England. Additionally, the then fledgling Rune-Gild published a number of shorter works. All of these would have likely ended up as virtually "lost" if they had not been collected and edited for publication in this volume. The Contents Include: Holy Signs: Threefold and FourfoldA Curious Curse FormulaThe Uthark Theory and the TarotReincarnation in ?satr?"Fate" in ?satr?The Rite of the Sumble Euhemerism in ?satr?The Germanic Idea of the HolyThe ArmanenschaftA History of German Runic EsotericismPersonal Authority and Odian Ethics This volume also contains a short biography of Edred Thorsson- who became not only the most influential writer and leader in the Northern Renaissance in North America, but also, inevitably for a while at least, its most controversial. This biography sheds some early light on what the controversy was all about.

An indespensible guide...

I'm not Jewish. I'm actually a Spirit-filled Christian. My branch of the Church tends to emphisize prayer, personal devotion, and intimacy with God. As a devout student of the Bible, I've always looked to the ancient Jewish Prophets and Mystics to learn how to grow closer to God. Years ago I came to the conclusion that deep spiritual meditation was at the center of their spiritual lives, yet I was not terribly familiar with...

Book Builds Bridge

There is no question about the renewed interest and a more thoughtful examination of religion and its sister, spirituality in our contemporary society. However, since the mid nineteenth century, in a period scholars called, "The Death of God," the supernatural aspect of the three great Middle Eastern (not Western) religions have been extracted from European and American culture; it's most noticeably evident in its absence...
