Really it just to Zephyr. In another thread you said "I'm a man, and in Asatru magic is considered the woman's domain". Would this mean that if I did find Asatru(or even Odinism or what not) to be right for me, that as a male I would have to give up my practice of magic?

Well I wouldn't kill anyone for even saying that. But I understand what you mean. Though something I read in the book The Rites of Odin that I picked up, the guy say that if one has interests in the Arcane and the Occult one should pursue, and maybe became a Priest or a Priestess along with the normal jobs. Arcane usually intalls "magic". To me it will be a hard thing to give up. But really to have what would seem like all of Heathenism look at you as something so unmanly that if someone call you it you can kill them, wouldn't make me feel good. I guess this is something I must ponder for myself. Thank you.

I found something I would like to add to a talk about magic in Heathenism my friend(if I may call you that). Seiðr Magic
Not sure I reliable this person is or how he is seem with the Asatru/Odinism group but that it might me something else to talk about.

I just thought of one more thing to add this morning before I go off to work. I'm not trying to say you are wrong in what you are saying, you did say you don't know about magic so....well anyway here goes. I had read also that one of Odin's area pf control was magic. And the way I read in to Runes they seem like a form of magic, plus there are some other thing that seem to me to be works in magic that ether male or females both do. In the long run I guess it's how one sees magic to begin with.

:siren:Stay the hell away from that thing!:siren: It is pretty much the worst source you could possibly come across for Asatru.

"He's pretty wild when it comes to gaining knowledge about anything,"
Same here, maybe that's way I feel drawn to Odin..... "so I guess he just didn't really care about the hit to his reputation and went for it anyway." Sometimes though one shouldn't care what other think. Though I still think most people don't understand magic that's way they think that way and think it's for girl well then to hell with them. I guess I may still be lost in what fits me. Maybe not....... Thanks for you're input my friend.

One more thing to add(sorry if it's a lot to ask). Do you think though that there is a difference in the Knowledge of Magic(knowing how it works) and the Practice of Magic(working it).
