Publisher's Synopsis
This book is a blinding lightning strike to the ways and traditions of the Northern peoples and the magic of the runes. It is an absolute mental and spiritual aviking to uncharted waters and hitherto unexplored territory. This book introduces such a scope of new metaphysical and Runic concepts, that in the near future, a new era of magical thought will be defined by its publication!! Not only does Yyggssbok define the twelve elements of the Runes, but it presents the most complete, poetic, and powerful version of the Norse cosmology that has as of yet been written. The Runic Poem presented as a synthesis of traditional lore bound to the foundations of the new, is perhaps the most powerful, beautiful, and intelligent runic poem ever written for Northern practitioners. The great hallmark of this work is a description and analysis of the two energies of magic and their role in the evolution and progression of the human soul. Never has such a depth of understanding been applied to such a complex and elusive subject as reincarnation and the function of magic via the mind-body-soul of man. The lore of the runes takes a radical evolutionary leap of many decades and is presented as a further unfolding of the thoughts of the greats such as Aswynn, Pennick, and Thorsson. The Runic ways may just have found a way to reclaim the natural evolution and progression that was cut short by the violent conversion of the Northlands by the Church!!! This book is of such importance that Freya Aswynn has made it the required reading for her advanced magical students. In Freya's own words, "I honestly support his (Ulf's) claim that it (Yyggssbok) has been inspired by Odin himself. I recognize His paw prints all over the place."
