Description
The Havamal is one of the most important ancient texts of the Northern European religious tradition known variously as Asatru, heathenry, Odinism, and the Troth. Part of the Poetic Edda, the Havamal (“Sayings of the High One”) contains advice from Odin on various topics including hospitality, love, friendship, magic, and the value of life. Many heathens consider the Havamal to be the most important Asatru ethical and magical text, and study it frequently for its religious and magical significance.
Havamal-Canada is a discussion group where Canadian heathens can discuss the Havamal in a structured, frithful atmosphere. Topics for discussion include, but are not limited to: interpretations of the meaning and significance of specific stanzas and sections of the poem; the differences between translations of the Havamal and how this affects its interpretation; the use of the Havamal by present-day heathens as a source of ethics; and magical wisdom contained within the poem. Moderators will choose new topics for discussion periodically from topics nominated by group members.
Discussion, which is expected to be on-topic, and debate are encouraged, but be frithful. Full rules are included in the group instructions file sent when you sign up for this list.
