A Völva was and is the ancient Norse equivalent of a Witch; a Healer who was also a Sorceress, who did holistic, organic root work and was most often a seer. In the past, a Völva was the equivalent of a medicine woman and often a spiritual priestess as well. This workbook was written for the advanced course in spaework taught by Ivy Mulligan, modern Völva and seiðkona. Welcome to the world of ancient Nordic magic, reinterpreted for the modern practitioner!

5.0 out of 5 stars Well researched material
Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2022
Great book with lots of experience and practices to back it up.

*additional information edit:*
This is a book I think anyone seeking authentic guidance on how to practice seidr in 21st century life should read.

I am a student of indo European indigenous anthropology, and I discovered Ivy 2 years ago at the urging of one of my Native American professors who had a chance to work and speak with Ivy.

All Ivy's work is based on those of European descent to have the ability to find and reclaim their own Indigenous ways without having to appropriate other native peoples traditions because; * “Scandinavia and all of Celtic Europe has its own native people who’ve been there since the beginning of time, still living the old ways even today. Living Heathenry is an ancestral path that when learned via traditions and through intuitive implementation; we modern descendants can live much more vibrant Spiritual Animist lives...”

*That very statement targeted Ivy within the north American Asatru community as “racist.”

This book is the second in a 3 part series created to train apprenticeship seidkonas in understanding the historical data found in both archaeology and our intuitive kennings of what Ivy calls Living Heathenry.

Obviously where recorded history is missing a contemporary methodology is required; so Ivy (via working intimately with Native Scandinavians over the past few years: i.e. Ailo Gaup, Lars Magnar Enoksen, Inger Johanne Syverd, and Lindy Fay Hella to name a few) implemented the missing practices of ancient Europe with today’s core shamanic/neo-pagan ritual procedures.

Ramasi left a review on this book that doesn’t appear as if s/he truly read it, there is MUCH in this book of credible historical references; but instead Ramasi simply bashed the author and promoted his own favorite book(s). Ramasi review (as many have this past year)were generated simply to demean Mrs. Mulligan and not her actual writing due to an incident that was orchestrated by a large group of “Americanized Asatru” to contrive a situation where Mrs. Mulligan was made to look the part of the ‘racist’.

Huge organizations with thousands of followers (and financial support) set up Mrs. Mulligan to be the ultimate “Viking villain” via fake FB accounts, and fabricated screen shots in a time Cancel- Culture was at its apex for ridding a platform of someone who goes against the norm; ~in this case it was Ivy speaking out against the fact American Asatru was not about being a contemporary European Indigenous Animist practicing Living Heathenry, but instead was becoming a cult of corporations based on Viking tv shows and gurus.

Ivy was protesting Asatru organizations touting ‘authentic Forn Seid' being turned into a dogmatic/pragmatic “religion” that was behaving much as monotheism does, only with Norse Names and Viking costumes.

This second book of 3 Ivy wrote covers everything one needs to begin a serious seidkona practice.

The first book she wrote “Contemporary Seiðr; Old Ways of Living Heathenry in Today’s High-Tech World” is geared towards beginner’s on the path of Living Heathenry, and her 3rd book “Godar/Gydja Handbook: Living Heathenry for a Contemporary World” addresses the ways of Godar initiations; which is the most scholarly of Ivys work that includes many rare manuscript and book recommendations.

I can’t encourage reading (and working through!) these books enough!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book with a fresh perspective
Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2022
I have greatly enjoyed working my way through this book and have found the information inspiring and helpful in bringing a fresh perspective to ancient paths. I purchased it some time ago, so I don't know if I am considered a "verified" purchaser per Amazon, but I actually did purchase and read this book. Reading "The Deeper Arts..." was a positive experience and I would recommend it to others. I have noticed some negative "reviews" are not reviews of the book at all. They are personal attacks on the author, by non-verified purchasers. I hope those personal attacks can be removed, so Amazon's book review section, can reflect actual book reviews.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome and informative!!
Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2022
This is a phenomenal book. And I had the opportunity to sit down with and interview the author. She is absolutely not a racist. I am appalled at the baseless accusations leveled against this author! Please do not believe those 3 reviews. They are obviously conspiring together since they each wrote almost identical reviews without purchasing or commenting on the content of the book!
