I can highly recommend Lady of the Labyrinth (Maria Kvilhaug) on YouTube. Her video series on how to interpret the poems in the Edda really made me look at them in a new light.
She stresses the importance of translating the names, which would otherwise make no sense to a modern reader:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evE6aLg-_Q8&list=PL69DFD95FB096EAEC&index=1"Nordens demring - Nordiske myter og sagn" Niels Chr. Brøgger is a great introduction to the Norse myths and sagas. The book is beautifully illustrated by Knut Yran (see the attached pictures for some samples)
"Norrøne gude- og heltesagn" by P. A. Munch (and the revised edition by Anne Holtsmark) is another great book on the subject - a very thorough and in-depth book that explains the names and meanings behind the myths.

I link Guðrún Kristín Magnúsdóttir's channel with a strong word of caution:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQj_jtWzylAQRYhCeOB-syAShe's an Icelander who is intimately familiar with the Heathen worldview, so there is knowledge to be gained.
HOWEVER, she is also a Transcendental Meditation enthusiast, and in many videos, is clearly trying to force fit the Heathen worldview into the Trancendental Meditation worldview. Plus her accent can be a bit on the thick side.
Be prepared to shift through some dirt before you get to the gold.

Grumpy Lokean Guides - Edda Translationshttp://grumpylokeanelder.tumblr.com/post/60472960801/grumpy-lokean-guides-edda-translationsI see people asking quite often which Edda translations are the best. To that end, I’ve compiled my reviews on various translations.The best translation:Dronke, Ursula. The Poetic Edda. (3 vol.) - Do whatever you can to get your hands on these. They were limited runs and are obscenely expensive, so you’ll probably have to do what I did and read them via interlibrary loan through a university. The Old Norse is presented alongside an extremely accurate English translation with extensive footnotes and translations notes. Commentary is included that provides valuable historical and cultural context, explains difficult terms, discusses religious and social pressures that may have influenced the texts… just amazing. Mrs. Dronke unfortunately passed away before the fourth volume was complete, but I’m still crossing my fingers that it will be released. A read through Dronke’s translations and essays will do wonders for your comprehension of the Poetic Edda.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ursula_Dronke

>The Council
It's almost like they are creating an anti-white "asatru" government to rule over these newly formed Asatru communities. They want to centralize control of Asatru and promote universalism just like you'd find in Christianity.
Theses morons will fail because the breakdown of western culture that is occuring and the decreasing European populations in their own homelands will lead to resentment of universalist ideals.

I want to OCR it as opposed to just scanning it like a peasant, but know jack shit about OCR software (I attempted to OCR Volume II I found, but special characters like "Æ" are making the OCR process shit the bed).
Even if I'm not able to OCR it, I will have a scan up soon (hopefully by this weekend).

I dont know if there is interest but I could translate a bunch of short fairytales and folkstorys from upper to lower germany about the wild hunt and its white horse riding, hat wearing and in the north called on as "wod"(wodan ofc).
Its mostly from a 19th century peasant perspective so with a lot of wacky elements and quiet mundane problems at the core but in them are some some vague attributes and conducts about the central european version of Odin which arent in the Edda-nothing scandinavic,epic or vikinglike tho as I said.

I think he's just aiming to remain as factual/analytical as possible in his content. He's stated he personally likes some of Jung's ideas but refuses to accept that god archetypes are merely psychological phenomena, but rather truly transcendent powers, so regardless of how he presents information in his vids I don't think it's fair to say that he personally has a non-religious/atheistic view of things.

Here are a few interesting links for some websites dealing with the runes and such.
Not sure how credible these sites are, but they seem alright. If anyone wants to double check them, that would be nice.
http://sunnyway.com/runes/meanings.html
This gives the meanings of most of the runes, if someone could fact-check it and see if it's good, that would be wonderful.
http://www.runes.info/links.php
A large wealth of information about the runes published by some old guy who has also wrote some books. His information seems pretty good, and he has a couple articles that talk about writing with the runes. There's also a link to an old forum that has commenting turned off, so check that out (not sure how credible the entire site is, though).

I can highly recommend the first site. I cast runes as soon as I get out of bed and that site helped me a lot.
It's strange, I recently got back to Asatru and the rune casting to me is the real highlight of it. It feels like Wodan is speaking directly to me, shining upon me with pieces of his wisdom. This is an experience I've never felt in any other religion. I can highly recommend it

This book is a pretty good intro into the stories that Asatru is based on. It's a little slick here and there, but mostly accurate. It also reads much better than the Eddas themselves, which can be quite a handful sometimes
