VÄKI – Stories and Songs of the Old Spirits
About
Long ago, the world appeared mysterious and full of unseen forces to the Finnish people. Nature was alive with väki—the powerful spirits residing in forests, lakes, and skies. Every tree, rock, and body of water had its own väki, and living in harmony required respect and understanding. The Finns knew that a whispered greeting to the forest or an offering left at a sacred spring could mean the difference between safe passage and misfortune.
