Seiðr Craft - Chapter 8: ‘Standing’ Grounding

Standing grounding is the spine of seiðr. Before you call to the gods, ancestors, or landvættir, you must become properly placed: rooted, aligned, and fully present. This chapter explores the Norse foundations of grounding through the cosmology of Yggdrasil, shows how historical sources hint at this preparation, and gives you a complete step-by-step ritual to root, center, and steady yourself. When you stand well, the craft opens. When you don’t, everything wavers.
