Hey everyone. I know I've been gone for a while. The truth is, I've been dealing with a lot of issues, but things have started to look up for me lately.
I have a general question about a certain branch of Neo-Paganism. Personally, I'm a Wiccan, but my boyfriend is Asatru. I've done a bit of research on it and found that it's very similar to Wicca, except that it focuses entirely on Norse mythology/practises/beliefs.
I was wondering if I could get some more detailed information on Asatru here.
Asatru?

Wikipedia is a great place to pick up some quick info. I was watching a news show about a week ago that reported that it has now been certified as one of the most reliable sources of information. Any how;

The mind is a window to the universe, but for many the window is closed
Truth is unique, it seldom has meaning for anyone other than the one who speaks it.
My opinion is my own. I am willing to share it, though you are not required to accept it.

Re: Asatru?
Actually, Asatru is very different from Wicca. Unfortunately, most of what I know comes directly from people who practice it. It's not my religion, I don't pay all that much attention to looking for the actual sources of information or I'd refer you to some.Ashleigh wrote:Hey everyone. I know I've been gone for a while.

But I do know that it's very different.
