Maria Kvilhaug: The Maiden with the Mead #5
Descriptions of rituals in the Poetic Edda meet mediterranean mystery religions and Carlos Castañeda!
We are joined by Norwegian author Maria Kvilhaug for a fascinating talk about her discovery of The Maiden With the Mead – a goddess of initiation in Old Norse mythology.
Starting out as a master dissertation in history of religions, The Maiden With the Mead will be published in an updated and expanded book version in 2022.
