This book is a roadmap for how to live your best life based on the wisdom of Norse gods, as gleaned from myth and lore. Delving into primary sources, the values, priorities, and goals of the people and their gods are revealed. Norse Paganism is rooted in ancient practices and beliefs. It thrives today, but not without adaptations. The difference is not a shift in core values. Instead, it is an evolution, acknowledging advances in science and social norms, to meet the needs of modern-day heathens. This book explains how the Viking's values and attitudes, adapted to a modern world, can work today to make your life more satisfying and rewarding. It provides guidance on how to incorporate those things more intentionally into your life. The traits and values that this belief system encourages, like honesty, warranted pride, commitment to long term goals, and the importance of acting honorably will help a person be more responsible, confident, and motivated to achieve whatever they desire. From Odin we learn the importance of wisdom and the value of life-long learning. Hard work, dedication, belief in yourself, and a sense of purpose are just some of the attributes characteristic of a Norse Pagan way of life. Those traits are also key for successful men and women in almost every career field, including the military, which is discussed in detail. Because it is not just a religion, but a way of life, you will also find information about the function of magic in the everyday life of our ancestors and how it manifests today. How modern-day heathens celebrate special events and holidays and how you can begin to build your own memorable traditions. You will learn the important role of reciprocity in Norse Paganism. Also included are stories from the lives of the people behind the sources, including the ambitious Roman orator Tacitus, creator of the controversial, 2,000-year-old book, Germania. You will learn the real reason why the people of Germania were a "pure race." Spoiler alert, despite what White Supremacists would like you to believe, it had nothing to do with race.
