Asatru?

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.

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;

If the article doesn't give you enough look at the links at the bottom

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.

But I do know that it's very different.
