![]() The face of Odin was grim but not frightening. He found himself before Odin, the AllFather. Shortly after this incident, on another occasion, Blumetti experienced his second incident while in a shamanistic trance-state. Blumetti was moved by the experience and swore to himself that he would dedicate himself to the Gods, just as Freyja asked. She promised him that if he would dedicate his life to the Gods, she would chose him to join her in her hall, Sessrumnir in the Folkvang. He could see golden icebergs shining in the dark waters. On one occasion Blumetti found himself on a golden ship, sailing through black waters, under an equally black sky. While in such a state, Blumetti experienced several moving, and soul transforming incidents. Blumetti was especially adept at this and was able to travel to other worlds while in such a trance state. Several of its members were able to induce a shamanistic trance-state. Over the years the group felt confident enough to try and evoke the Gods. Eventually the group became very adept in rune lore, and both forms of magic. Group rune-chanting and dancing was often practiced. The group introduced both galdor and seither magic practices. In time the group’s progression developed its practices of breathing, meditation and rune chanting. The group was dedicated to Freyja, the Goddess of love and joy. ![]() The group began by studying the Norse myths and practicing simple breathing exercises and rune meditation. It contained about five to nine people of various backgrounds. For six years the group met every other Friday on a regular basis, in New York City. The group was organized and run by Bob Zoller, a Gothi with Rune-Gild. Blumetti was first called to the Gods when he joined a Norse study group in 1982. This is why our Gods have sought to act and present to us a path, by which we might save ourselves and our kinsmen, and lead them back to the Gods of our ancestors. Many of our kinsmen will undoubtedly be seduced by the call of strange and alien Gods. The years and decades that lie ahead promise to be turbulent and we will witness a great disintegration of all that we know and have become accustomed to. He has written what he has learned and hopes it will help you, the reader, as an individual and collective as a member of the Folk, to survive the radical changes that is taking place and will accelerate in the century to come. This book is the fulfillment of that promise. Long ago Blumetti swore that he would devote his life to the Gods, and their resurrection. What must be understood upon reading this book is that each member of the Folk is a potential conduit by which the Gods will use to convey their knowledge to our people. It is not meant to be some kind of “holy writ” that such Middle Eastern cults like Judaism, Christianity and Islam depend on. Blumetti does not pretend to be some kind of “prophet.” What he has attempt to do is to put on paper the inspired revelations that were conveyed to him through twenty years of meditation on the Gods through the use of the Runes. The true religion of our people has always been a living religion that grows with us as a people. Actually, it is more correct to describe this book as having “grown.” The Book of Balder Rising is not a “bible” in the usual sense, because this concept is alien to our Folk Faith. This book has been twenty years in the making. GLOSSARY OF PRINCIPAL CHARACTERS, PLACES AND PROPS. THE GIANTS: THE FORCES OF DESTRUCTION AND CHAOS.
