Overview

Vegvísir Unveiled: The Wayfinder and Compass of the North by Tobias Wolfsberg guides readers into the fascinating world of Icelandic magical symbols, centering on the enigmatic Vegvísir. Often called the ""Viking compass,"" this striking stave is more myth than map-yet its meaning runs deep. Wolfsberg explores the symbol's true origins in 19th-century Iceland, its links to the galdrastafir tradition, and its symbolic power as a guide for spiritual and personal navigation. Through careful research and lyrical prose, he reveals how the Vegvísir has journeyed from obscure manuscript to modern icon. Perfect for readers interested in Norse mythology, Icelandic folk magic, and symbolic spirituality, Vegvísir Unveiled offers both historical clarity and interpretive depth. Wolfsberg masterfully weaves together folklore, cultural revival, and modern esotericism to show how the Vegvísir continues to inspire seekers today-not as a tool for sailing seas, but for charting inner journeys. Follow Tobias Wolfsberg through this compelling exploration of myth, meaning, and memory, and discover how a single stave came to embody the soul's ancient longing for direction and destiny.
