The Seidhr list is a forum for the discussion of seidhr, also spelled (in English texts and modern continental Scandinavian languages) seidr, seidh, seid, sejd, seith, and probably even more ways. Seidhr is, very roughly speaking, the trancework and magical/shamanic practices of the Germanic/Heathen/Asatru faith. For a clearer notion of current ideas, practices and some further definitions of Seidhr please read over the many informative articles on the following webpage:
http://home.earthlink.net/~jordsvin/Seidhr/Index.htm.

This list is not a general magic discussion list, nor is it a training class. I recommend you go to http://www.groups.yahoo.com/group/SeidhrStudy for discussing entry level Seidhr training.
The purpose of this list is to clarify with fellow experienced practitioners as much of Seidhr/Spae as possible, establish general definitions, ethics and practices. Discussion of other different viewpoints and methods within the Seidhr sphere are certainly welcome and definitely and eagerly encouraged.

The Seidhr list is a frithstead with clear posting guidelines. Racism, sexism, homophobia, and flaming are not welcome. The Seidhr list is for ADULTS ONLY (18 years or older). The methods and practices discussed and described on this list are NOT safe; in fact, they are inherently unsafe for the inexperienced.

For OFF-TOPIC threads, Jordsvin has provided this list with a "sister,"
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/JordsvinsHeathenDiscussion.
It is wide-open; anyone can post and read posts, whether a member of the list or not.
