Another concise, well researched and thorough book from Morgan Daimler. The author has managed again to take the academic resources that are available and make them accessible for any reader.

They also share some of their personal practices, with a description of items they have used on their altar. There are suggestions for how Freya is relevant in our world today, and how the reader can connect more deeply with this powerful Goddess, should they wish to. 

As always from this author there are excellent endnotes and bibliography, enabling the reader to explore the subject matter further.

Pagan Portals – Freya by Morgan Daimler

The most popular of the Norse goddesses is the Vanic deity Freya, found across the Norse myths and into modern mass media, yet often obscured by contradictory tales and external moral coding. Freya is an alluring deity of magic and fertility, a being so important in the mythology that gods and giants fought over her, yet she is never shown as a passive prize to be won only as a forceful being with agency and will of her own. Who is this powerful goddess who has left such a profound mark across not only Norse culture but also wider Western culture? Pagan Portals-Freya is a basic introduction to the Norse Goddess Freya that covers her history, mythology, associations, and modern appearances, and offers readers suggestions for how to begin connecting to Freya in their own lives.
