The Sons of Baldur: A Forest Music Drama (Classic Reprint)

Description: This book presents a lyrical, dramatized ceremony integral to the ancient Norse tribe the Sons of Baldur. It is in the form of a play which immortalizes a significant, age-old tradition particular to this tribe, the 'Burning of Care'. This ceremony epitomizes the rejection of worry, doubt, and anxiety. These feelings, represented by the slain dragon Nidhugg, are symbolically incinerated to make way for the tribe to embrace the virtues symbolized by the god Baldur - joy, love, beauty, and goodness. Full of fantastical imagery, ancient wisdom, and the exploration of Norse mythology, this book is a unique and compelling read that delves into the beliefs and practices of ancient cultures.
