"Frigg's Twelvefold Flameis a wonderful resource. From the oldest textual mentions of Frigg to a modern day understanding of her, Rev. Máire Durkan takes the reader on a journey in which she uncovers every aspect of this deity and her retinue of goddesses. The book highlights the relevance Frigg and her companions have for modern spiritual practice and daily life.Rev. Durkan gives thorough consideration to both Continental Germanic and Norse sources while beautifully weaving in her personal gnosis. Complete with practical suggestions, this book presents readers with a complex yet friendly approach toward learning about and from Frigg." --Daniela Simina, author of Where Fairies Meet, A Fairy Path, andFairy Herbs for Fairy Magic "I am not a Heathen, but I have been in friendship and community with Heathens for several decades.


I have studied enough lore that I am sometimes presumed to be Heathen when I am at events and view it as an honor. My appreciation of this path and community has been reinvigorated by what I found in Frigg's Twelvefold Flame. It is rooted in history and the lore while also expressing a modern and progressive worldview. It blends devotional approaches with magick to create rituals and practices for social activism and personal freedom. In addition to a nuanced exploration of the Goddess Frigg, we are introduced to the Goddesses of Frigg's retinue. There are so many sections in this book that are inspiring because the words are aglow with the author's love and sincerity. I recommend this book for Pagans, Polytheists, and Witches as strongly as I do for Heathens. It is a treasure trove of living practice.


" --Ivo Dominguez Jr, author of the Witch's Sun Sign series "Frigg's Twelvefold Flameis both a wonderful introduction to the dynamic goddess of Norse myth and a platform for a deeper relationship with Frigg and her retinue of powerful goddesses. Rev. Máire Durkan expands past her firm grounding in history and lore into today's world to offer empowerment, connection, and hope." --Ash Glasse, leader of Elk Ridge Kindred, Heathen presenter, and educator "There is very little information out there about some of the goddesses in Frigg's Retinue, but Rev. Maire Durkan has found a way to not only find the little bits of information here and there, but she also creates a framework for a practitioner to develop their own relationship with these goddesses in a powerful and authentic way. Providing information in a clear, and organic manner, she provides a path to being able to worship these goddesses in a much deeper way. As a disabled activist, I found the approach to these goddesses reaffirming and motivational. I can't recommend it enough!" --Stacey Lynne Stewart, Distelfink Sippschaft Godsperson, author of Heathen Traditions of the Pennsylvania Dutch "A thorough, highly accessible, and engaging work on one of the most significant of the Nordic Goddesses.


Durkan effectively blends solid research with intersectional analysis and spiritual practice in this compelling work. Frigg's Twelvefold Flameis a welcome addition to any Heathen or Norse-curious seeker's bookshelf." --Ryan Smith, author of The Way of Fire and Iceand Spinning Wyrd.
