Negative Positive
Title: Almost a waste of time.
Review: Although Willis' book has many good exercises within its pages, I have a hard time getting past the flagrent misinterpretations within its covers. Willis tries hard to fuse the Grecko/Roman philosophies, and the Astrology that is based on those philosophies, with the mythos and ideals of the Norse, but it just cannot be done successfully. The two philosophies are just too different. He tries to equate Jupiter with Thor. Beside the point that Jupiter was a king of gods and Thor wasn't, Jupiter was feared by his people and Thor was loved and was treated as if he were blood kin.If you are looking for a good book to learn the esoteric meanings of the runes, avoid this book at all costs. "Northern Mysteries" by Freyja Aswynn, "Futhark" by Edred Thorson, and "Runecasters" by Edred Thorson, are far better.
