Krákualjóð: The Black Tongue Rite of Raven-Calling in Norse Troll Witchcraft.

 𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐑𝐀𝐕𝐄𝐍-𝐂𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐆

—For the Summoning of Corvid Spirits & Trollish Familiars in the Black Tongue of the North—

This ritual pertains to the summoning and command of raven-spirits, both flesh-bound and spirit-wrought, through the old arts of black Norse magic. It is not symbolic, nor metaphorical. It is functional sorcery—troll-seiðr wrought in accordance with the laws of blood, breath, and ancestral current.

The raven holds a high seat in the tradition of svartkonst and northern baneful magic. Known in the tongues of our dead kin as hrafn, it is not merely a creature of the battlefield, but a bearer of fetches, a scout of the unseen roads, and an enforcer of the sorcerer’s will.

To the old ones, ravens were not pets or totems, but servants and watchers—beings that walked between the corpse-road (helvegr) and the breath-road (öndveg) with ease.

They consume the eyes of the fallen to see what lies beyond. They speak not in riddles, but in clear signs—if one is trained to listen properly.

This rite—Krákualjóð, “The Chant of the Raven’s Maw”—is not for novices, nor those seeking gentle counsel. It is for those who require the eyes of the raven in the dark, the claws of the raven in their working, and the call of the raven to pierce the veil between worlds. This is true summoning, not symbolic. It draws upon ancient trollkunnig methods from the hinterlands, where animal-bond, blood, ash, and binding are used to enforce obedience from the spirits summoned.

The rite must be performed under correct conditions or not at all. The place must be wild, preferably a high or liminal site—such as beneath bare rock, at the edge of bog or forest, or near a carrion place. It must be conducted beneath a waning moon, ideally on the thirteenth night before the dark moon, in the hour before midnight. The time is chosen to fall within the svartvindur—the black wind—when the boundary between the breath-world and the under-roads thins, and the hrafn may cross freely.

This chapter provides the correct construction of the rite, including tools, ingredients, vocal methods (throat-sung overtones), protective boundaries, and instructions for binding a raven-ally into service. This is not Wiccan fluff, and it contains no rhymes or false light. It is ancestral, brutal, and effective.

If you proceed, do so knowing the raven remembers all. It watches the hand that calls it—and it punishes the hand that misuses its trust.

Proceed with discipline. Or not at all.

Trolldómr in Old Norse Tradition: The Shadowed Art of Sorcery.

Trolldómr, the Old Norse term for witchcraft and sorcery, was a feared and powerful practice that spanned from the time of the Viking Age through medieval Scandinavia. Unlike seiðr, which was often associated with prophecy and fate-weaving, trolldómr was viewed as a darker, more malevolent form of magic—one that involved curses, spirit-binding, shape-shifting, and direct manipulation of natural and supernatural forces.

It was the magic of outlaws, witches, giants, and those who walked in the shadows of the wilds. The word trolldómr itself comes from "troll," referring not only to the supernatural beings of Norse mythology but also to magic-workers who operated outside of societal norms. 

This was magic that belonged to the wilderness, to those who invoked the forgotten gods, the dead, and the dark places of the world.
