Synopsis

Why a study guide for the Völuspá? Völuspá, the Prophecy of the Seeress (sometimes referred to as the Sibyl’s Prophecy) is undoubtedly one of the most important sources for the study of Norse mythology. Knowledge of secret magical techniques and the search for hidden wisdom were frequent concerns for the ancient heroes in the Norse pantheon of Gods. The “Seeress’s Prophecy,” also known as the “Prophecy of the Völva,” is one of the most famous epic poems from pre-Christian Norse mythology; part of an ancient text referred to as the Völuspá. This text is just as critical today to 21st century Völva’s, and seiđkona’s to come to understand the deeply hidden Ancestral wisdom of Spa as was held by our Indo European Ancestors; ~just as the Hávamál is a crucial text to contemporary Vitki’s and Heathens when coming to understand runic magic and Odin’s Ordeal. I hope anyone reading this special guide complied by The Asatru Community gets much use and wisdom from within the text.
