Waking The Dragons: Norse Myth, Folklore, Runes and Magic

An exhilarating journey exploring the relationships between myth, magic, man and nature, through the symbol of the dragon and guided by the oracle of the runes. This book is an immersion into the revival of the rich living tradition from Scandinavia. The stories, folk-magic, sagas and world-literature offer us insight into the resilience that can be discovered in our lives, ecology and community today. The lesser-known branches of the great World Tree (Yggdrasil) are explored as we hear about reconciliation as a road to wisdom. Much of this material has never been translated into the English language.
