Understanding Norse culture, paganism, and Runes with Renate Elida Haug
We have all heard about Norse mythology and its warriors. Besides being fascinating mythology, it has stories that captivate the attention of those who hear about it; to find out more about this mythology, today, we will have a special guest to enlighten us with her knowledge.
Today's guest is Renate Haug, an expert in Norse mythology and the runic alphabet.
Renate was born in Norway, and since she was little she created an appreciation for Viking culture, which led her to study and learn more about her own culture.
In today's episode, Renate is here to show us how to interpret the world in a different way through the runes. Also, we will talk about paganism and initiation.
You cannot miss this episode! You will not only hear about Norwegian culture but also know the meaning behind the UNcivilized logo.
