Halvar is a man who seamlessly bridges the gap between tradition and modernity. Growing up, his parents embraced the lifestyle and spirituality of Native Americans during their vacations, instilling in him a deep respect for nature and its forces. At just six years old, Halvar had his first encounter with shamanism, a path that has shaped his life ever since. After training as a chef, Halvar returned to his roots and immersed himself in Nordic paganism, mythology, and shamanism.
Tattoo Artist
Today, Halvar is a multifaceted artist and spiritual guide. His tattoos are crafted entirely by hand, without the use of a machine—each design is meticulously drawn and executed with care. For Halvar, tattooing is far more than art; it’s a ritual. Before every session, his studio is energetically cleansed to create a space for positive vibrations to flow into each tattoo. For him, tattoos are not just images on the skin—they are magical symbols filled with stories and energy that accompany their wearers for a lifetime.
But his creativity doesn’t stop there. Halvar collaborates with his wife to create stunning altar decorations—wooden discs adorned with Nordic mythology-inspired motifs, skillfully burned into the surface. He also offers custom dreamcatchers and magical talismans designed to protect their wearers from negative influences.
Spiritual Guide
Beyond his artistry, Halvar offers a range of shamanic services. Whether it’s guiding astral journeys, leading meditations, providing grief counseling, or officiating handfastings, Halvar uses his knowledge and intuition to offer profound and transformative experiences. He also shares his wisdom through online courses, helping participants explore topics like astral travel and develop their own spiritual abilities.
Podcast on Nordic Mythology
Halvar is also a passionate teacher. Alongside Altrun, a longtime friend and fellow pagan, he co-hosts the podcast “Wielands Wortschmiede.” Together, they delve into the mysteries of Nordic mythology and the art of runes. Their discussions explore spiritual practices, the magic of runes, and the relevance of ancient myths in modern life. The podcast is an inspiring, in-depth resource for anyone seeking a spiritual home in Nordic paganism, all without preaching or judgment.
Storyteller
For the next generation, Halvar has created something special: a children’s book series on Nordic mythology. Designed for his son, the series introduces young readers to the world of the old gods through enchanting illustrations and engaging stories. These books offer a thoughtful and accessible way to explore the wisdom and magic of the Nordic pantheon.
