Modern paganism (Ásatrú)

Modern paganism, particularly Ásatrú, is a contemporary revival of ancient Norse beliefs and traditions. It emphasizes the worship of the Norse gods, such as Odin, Thor, and Freyja, as well as honoring nature, ancestors, and the values of courage, honor, and community. Practitioners often celebrate seasonal festivals, conduct rituals, and seek to connect with the mythology and spiritual heritage of the Viking Age. Ásatrú is inclusive, catering to diverse interpretations and personal beliefs, and it aims to cultivate a sense of belonging and connection to the past in a modern context.
