Chapter 7. At the Well of Urð 182 English. The book contains a text of 47 charms in the three forms (drawn, spoken and written) mentioned above; this time, however, the Christian coloring is either extremely thin or non-existent. Many of the spoken charms mention the Heathen Gods by name, the written prayers are in late runic script (still in use during the period that this book was originally committed to parchment), and many of the signs are of strange, angular shapes, probably, according to Flowers, stylized runic bind-runes, which are much like the overlapping letters of a modern monogram but with magical significance as opposed to simply being the initials of someone’s name. Although the original text was Icelandic instead of German, one can still see the Germanic technique of the three forms. As mentioned above, there are texts from around 1000 CE, either a compilation of charms, such as the Lacnunga, or discussing the use of charms within the context of a narrative, such as in Egil’s Saga: “Then the queen and Bard marked the horn and passed it to the beer-server. She took it to Egil and asked him to drink it. Then Egil drew out his knife and stabbed it into the palm of his hand. He took up the horn, carved runes on it, and rubbed in the blood. He said: ‘I hatch the runes on the horn, help seal each spell with blood. Now, hear the nostrum I’ve notched on this wild-ox horn. Let’s booze as we think best beer those cheerful girls poured. Bard’s marked it. What’s that mean? Mischief? Well, let’s find out.’ The horn sprang apart and the drink poured down into the straw.” 16 This tradition shows the carving of runic symbols and the spoken charm as well. Dr G. Storms wrote an analysis of Germanic magic, particularly the Anglo-Saxon variety, called Anglo-Saxon Magic in 1948. 17 Most recently, Kveldulf Gundarsson, Warder of the Lore for one of the more popular reconstructionsist organizations (The loan. 16 Fell, Christine, tr. Egil’s Saga (Everyman’ Library; London, UK) 1975, p. 62. 17 Out of Print but published by the Hague and occasionally available through inter-library
Chapter 7. At the Well of Urð 183 Ring of Troth 18 ) published a book in 1990 CE, called Teutonic Magic 19 , which is a practical manual for those wishing to engage in this method for indirectly accessing knowledge. His book is well steeped in the ancient Germanic world view. Since that time many others have written books, some combining the Germanic tradition with the New Age or classical occultism of the Hermetic tradition while others, the reconstructionists, have written very good, well researched books. A reading list of some of these latter can be found at the end of this book. People are all different in their individual needs, but certain needs are consistent for all. All want to be comfortable with life, in general, and want to make the journey from birth to death meaningful and fulfilling. Virtually all cultures have attempted to accomplish this by creating worldviews which help them extract the most out of life by offering a systems of interpretation which bring seemingly chaotic, random events in accordance with the needs of the community and the individual. Each culture, and each worldview, must take into consideration that a community is made up of a variety of individuals with different spiritual, emotional, and physical needs as well. To this end, any worldview offers a variety of approaches to life ranging from the strictly physical needs of the atheist/ agnostic to the more spiritual needs of others while at the same time offering heritage and a place in history. So it is with the Germanic worldview as well. The most base, physical approach in the system outlined in this chapter is that of simply acting in a functional manner so as to ”go with the flow” to use a modern phrase. Other approaches are more ritualized in nature such as the celebrations of the ancient holidays with an understanding of the purpose behind them as interpreted through the Germanic worldview. Other routes are more spiritual with methods for extracting deeper meaning out of the happenings of the world. Whatever the individual’s needs are they can be met out of the same single system. TO DRINK AT THE WELL OF MÍMIR In one way or another, all the methods outlined so far allow an individual to access the ¸orlögas it has been laid down in the Well of Urð. Changing one’s way of acting results in putting down good strong layers that permit a greater access to power/ luck, reading omens allows one to glimpse relationships between lineages 18 The Ring of Troth PO Box 25637 Tempe, AZ 85285-5637.
