Hi - my native language is Icelandic. These two words "Seidr" and "Galdr" are from old Norse which
I am of Nordic dissent Swedish specifically. I have been practicing paganism for most of my adult life. I’m very glad that you put only facts out there as there is much miss information regarding Nordic history. I truly appreciate your videos. Thank you very much.
Thank you for keeping it real ! Lots of folk don't realize, that by making things up it muddles that which was/is real and potentially destroys any hope of unearthing the real thing.
Thanks for posting such great videos . They are very educational
Good video. Thanks for putting the facts out there and being objective. We need more people doing videos like this.
Thank you, for all of your hard work. I am fairly new to Heathenry, and truly appreciate it, especially this particur topic.
I truly enjoy and appreciate your unbiased on-judgemental approach to presenting various theories and that all are welcome as long as they align themselves to some degree with the historical evidence. A truly refreshing and enjoyable channel. Thanks so much and keep up the work!
Wish I had run across your channel before. I would have added you to my recommended youtuber list when I did my video on becoming a norse pagan. Awesome content, you've earned another subscriber.
I love your work.
I really like your content thank you
Thank you very much. This has been quite helpful.
Seiður is (I think) more making a potion i.e.a liquid with healing, magical, or poisonous properties. Seiðkarl (or Seiðkona) is a person who makes a healing potions that other people do not know how to do.
Tusen takk!
Thank you once again for the information. :)
Thank you for the post and for being an educator, a teacher correcting false history.
Hearing you describe Seidr brought a memory of an episode of River Monsters to mind. In Mongolia he met with a female shaman who used a drum and brought herself to a trance like state. he described the religion as a pagan religion stretching beyond the age of Genghis khan.
Very interesting. Though the magic side isn't so much where I am coming from, the potions and herbal remedies are. Look forward to seeing your other videos.
WOW that was helpful! Thanx
I found this fascinating:
I’m wondering if you could tell me anything about Viking medicine or healers?
