The Book of BlotsThe original and genuine Book of Blots of the Odinic Rite inherits the rich and formal qualities of English ritual language. It derives, ultimately, from times when poetry was mantic and widely used for magical purposes. Now, as in the elder days, it introduces, interprets and celebrates within a spiritual context the events and seasons of life and of the natural year. The fully revised and updated second edition of The Book of Blots provides a comprehensive celebration of the events and seasons of the Odinist year. This classic handbook is now re-issued for the guidance of all heathens. |
