The Odinist Edda

From the ashes arises the sacred lore of the North, the ancient stories and proverbial wisdom of the Odinist religion. Mighty Gods and fierce Giants battle in the never-ending struggle between order and chaos, while men seek honor and glory in the eyes of their beloved deities. After many years of research and piecing together sources, now comes the first known holy text ever presented for the Odinist faith. Giving these accounts in their true, epic form, The Odinist Edda is designed as a religious work by and for the men and women of this path. In reconstructing this sacred epic, the idea is to create a living storytelling tradition that will honor the legacy of the ancient Teutonic peoples, while providing an in-depth source of Odinist wisdom for our modern world.

In 2009 The Norroena Society published The Asatru Edda, which has become the beginning of a true hierology for the Odinist or Asatru religion. With an intact body of sacred lore, the Society has been able to take leaps and bounds in discovering new ways that these ancient traditions relate to one another, and how they connect to the Indo-European model.

The Odisbook is a journey through the ages and through the mind and spirit of the reader. It begins with birth and takes you through the many stages of existence. Its purpose is to help you achieve a better life, a higher spirit, and a stronger relationship with the Gods of your people. Now the journey is yours to take, and the first step is in your hands...
