According to the publisher: "Gullveig is the Teutonic and Germanic highest feminine principle of darkness - the maid, the mother, and the crone: Gullveig's traits are analogous to Lilith's and Hecate's. In the Old Norse Mythology she is the sinister arch- mother of the giants and the black arts; she's also the divine feminine manifestation of the analogue thursian purpose." The book is in effect a grimoire of Gullveig, drawing from old Norse Mythology and occult lore to establish a pathway of black magical practice. Quite dark in all respects. The author is know for his "Panparadox," published by Ixaxaar in 2009. Both book and art folder about Fine condition. (book issued without dust jacket). Obviously oversized and heavy so additional shipping charges to those automatically quoted will apply to all destinations. Item #65529
