 EpisoOdin_Paxsonde 14 of Gifts of the Wyrd welcomes Author, Seeress, Editor (and more) Diana Paxson to discuss her latest book, Odin: Ecstasy, Runes, and Norse Magic.  While in Germany prior to this episode, I had the pleasure of spending a week with Diana and 6 other people as we traveled around central Germany to visit sacred and historical sites. We took a moment after a day of walking around Bronze Age grave mounds to talk about the book and the process leading to its writing. Diana Paxson’s website can be found here.

I am a Devotee of Freya and the Vanir in a modern age pursuing a spiritual life and sharing experiences as an inclusive Germanic Paganism spiritual path. Explore the connection with the gods and beings of the web of Wyrd as we create our path today inspired by what we can learn from our ancestors. I am a Vitki, Gothi, and Runester (I work with runes). I do not support the use of Germanic (or any) spirituality for the promotion of racism or bigotry. If you support racism or bigotry - we do not have compatible ideologies. Find my podcast where I speak with others on this inclusive path at giftsofthewyrd.podbean.com, Apple & Google Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, or other podcast providers.
