The Disclaimer: I am not now, nor have I ever been, a member of any Asatru or Heathen group. I do not identify as Asatru or Heathen. I am a northern-tradition Pagan, which is a religious tradition that is reconstructionist-derived, rather than a reconstructionist tradition such as Asatru and/or Heathenry. The views espoused in these pages may or may not reflect the views of most Asatru and/or Heathen people or religious groups. They are derived from the personal gnosis of myself and other people whom I trust and respect. I do not claim that they are provable by academic sources, nor that they are anything other than what I say they are. Read at your own risk.

The Pathwalker's Guide to the Nine Worlds, by Raven Kaldera NOW AVAILABLE!
The Pathwalker's Guide to the Nine Worlds is the first written exploration of the ancient Norse/Germanic cosmology not by academics and mythologists, but by the experiences of northern-tradition spirit-workers astrally visiting the Cosmos of the World Tree and the Nine Worlds that surround it. Written as a travelogue and etiquette-primer for would-be worldwalkers, and centered around the author's experiences on a nine-day walking tour of the Nine Worlds, this is the first book of its kind ever published.

The Journal: Nine Worlds, Nine Days
The goddess who owns me, body and soul, Hel the Keeper of the Dead and Mistress of the Underworld, has commanded me to take a nine-day tour of the Nine Worlds. It will take place from October 6 to October 14 of 2003. I intend to keep journal entries of all the preparations for this journey, and afterwards write about what I have experienced. She has asked me to put this material up where it can be seen by others, in case (I suppose) She has others in mind who would be benefited by my work. Therefore I give my words and my struggles forth as a gift. Read them and take what you will from them.
