Galina Krasskova

I just finished reading Galina Krasskova’s book Exploring the Northern Tradition. While she uncritically parrots the claims that Freyja forced the Aesir to run her through with their spears and burn her and that her burning was an initiation akin to Odin’s hanging on the tree (what irresponsible BS), I was pleasantly surprised when I read her devotional chapter on Freyja. Thank you, Galina, for what you wrote about the goddess with whom I am wed.
