The three Norns were a group of female supernatural beings who, within Nordic mythology, weave fate and control the fate of the cosmos, as well as the destinies of mortals and Gods alike. In Pagan Portals: The Norns, Weaves of Fate and Magick, Irisanya Moon introduces the reader to these beings, Urdr, Verdandi, and Skuld, each of whom have their own specific function and purpose that tend to weave in and out of our human lives. An invitation to explore and work with each Norn is offered to those who are interested in diving deeper into working with these beings. ~ Frances Billinghurst, author of Encountering the Dark Goddess: A Journey into the Shadow Realms, Contemporary Witchcraft: Foundational Practices for a Magical Life and On Her Silver Rays: A Guide to the Moon, Myth and Magic
