INITIATION RITE
In this rite you renounce any previous creeds and affirm your true faith, the Asatru. If you have not been baptised or have no other confession of faith, you will only proclaim your Asatru through this rite.
This rite is performed in connection with open blót´s organized by the local blót kindred, the rite as such is relatively short, so it can be performed after the blót has been performed.
This is a rite performed by one of our officiants. In the presence and guidance of the officiant, you undergo a rite in which you renounce previous confession of faith and affirm your true faith.
After the rite, there is the possibility of obtaining a certificate in which you confirm your faith Asatru with your name and the name of the officiant, with the approval of the community.
You do not need any prior knowledge to perform the rite as the officiant will guide you through it.
What you need to arrange before the rite is a piece of jewellery or other significant item to bring with you to the rite, the officiant will keep this item in custody during the rite, and will be returned after the rite has been performed.
You must also be 16 years old to make this decision to undergo the rite yourself, otherwise the authorisation of the guardian is required.
