Kari’s Voluspa: November 2009

About Me

Location: Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States

I am a Völva. Völva is Old Norse for “staff carrier,” the traveling spiritual guide learned in the ways of my European/Scandinavian Folk Soul. Like Thorbjorg from Eric the Red’s Saga, I am invited into communities to lead ceremony, share information, impart wisdom, and perpetuate the folk ways through song, story, and dance. I heal oorlag at it's source and read wyrd for individuals and groups.

Live at the Capri

The above video is from our recent gig at the Capri Theater under a City of Minneapolis Great Sreets art grant and in collaboration with the Northside Arts Council.

The live cd "Kari Tauring and Huldre-Live at the Capri" is available on line at: http://nacarts.org/news/great-streets-performance-series/

A head's up for iphone users - look for a new "The Runes: A Human Journey" iphone application available by this Yule!

I'm also making headway on my new book "Volva Stav." I hope to have it available Spring 2010 along with a cd to practice along with.

I'ts a busy time between now and 2010. I hope everyone is planting their "spring bulbs" so that May is full of new projects, well underway!

Best to all,
Kari
