Inhaltsangabe

Book description form the publisher:
"The folk magic of Sweden, Norway, and Denmark, has been practiced for more than 500 years. Now, after extensive research, Johannes Gårdbäck presents the fascinating occult art of Norse trolldom to an English-speaking audience. This detailed account of traditional Scandinavian folk magic offers in-depth historical background, divination methods, and descriptions of practical trolldom, paving the way for the 2014 publication of hundreds of collected trolldom spells for love, money, protection, healing, and cursing. Johannes Gårdbäck is a respected healer, teacher, and spiritual worker of Swedish folk-magic. A practitioner of hoodoo and conjure, he is also a founding member of AIRR, the Association of Independent Readers and Rootworkers. He brings solid, firsthand knowledge of Norse, Scandinavian, and African-American folklore to his international practice. He currently lives in Göteborg, Sweden. The Norse folk magic tradition, called Trolldom, has much in common with the practices of African-American folk magic. This book is a detailed account of traditional Swedish folk magic and offers spells, background, and descriptions of the Trolldom practice."
