Executive Summary

Mark “Mystisk Ulv” Weisman writes recovery-aware, ethics-first mythic spirituality that blends practical psychology, emotional cartography, and Celtic–Norse ancestral frameworks for real-world resilience and belonging. His publishing roadmap is structured as a coordinated ecosystem spanning a core nonfiction path, a companion series, and a multi-year spoke rollout designed for clear reader entry points and scalable expansion. The Traveler’s Journey Home leads the acquisition path, alongside a Year 1 spoke slate (six completed, six in progress), a potential expansion of companion titles, a Year 2 plan of twelve additional spokes, a prospective revision/expansion of Turn to Final, and five staged fiction projects.

Celtic–Norse practitioner · author · emotional cartographer

Mark “Mystisk Ulv” Weisman is a Celtic–Norse practitioner, author, and host/creator whose work blends myth, psychology, and trauma-aware spirituality to support recovery and belonging.

Through Alaska Ulfhednar (501(c)(3)), Mark facilitates circles and teaching that bring grounded animist practice from the ice-quiet North into hospital corridors, kitchen tables, and recovery rooms—offering tools for real life, not only ideal conditions.

His work focuses on:

  • Shamanic/ancestral guidance rooted in Celtic–Norse ancestry and ethical ritual
  • Emotional cartography—visual maps like the mood ring, the well of the self, the horn of feeling, and the Me Gate
  • Plain-language tools people can use in real-time crises, not just on retreat

Projects in the Hopper

1) The Traveler’s Journey Home: Clarity in the House of Chaos

Status: Full manuscript complete; proposal and sample chapters available.

The Traveler’s Journey Home: Clarity in the House of Chaos is a narrative-driven, recovery-aware spirituality book that blends myth, practical psychology, and ethics-first ancestral practice. Structured as a nine-step Path of Discovery, it offers grounded tools for readers navigating addiction, PTSD, relationship patterns, and generational trauma—

…especially those hungry for meaning but wary of institutions and guru culture. Chapter 4 is the origin point of “Rewriting Your Emotional Recipes” (RYER) which is a standalone 2025 ebook with future companion pillars.

The spine of the book is a nine-step “Path of Discovery,” moving through:

  • Attunement — learning to hear the “echo” and reclaim inner signal (Ch. 1).
  • Perspective — reframing existence and meaning without losing wonder (Chs. 2–3).
  • Inner terrain — psychology you can actually work with in daily life (Ch. 4).
  • Living currents — breath, energy, and emotional weather as practical tools (Ch. 5).
  • Durable lessons — “stones along the path” that hold under strain (Ch. 6).
  • Ethics + practice — a modern, workable expression of the Ninefold Way (Ch. 7).
  • Belonging — a grounded arrival to land, kin, and self (Ch. 8).
  • Integration — “walking on” with steadier agency and a truer relationship to the sacred (Ch. 9).

Readers get tools they can use immediately, including:

  • Simple, repeatable practices for attention, repair, truth, and return.
  • A recovery-aware way to work with emotional “weather” and personal “climate.”

Core metaphor: we are not statues to be fixed, but fields in motion.

2) Additional interconnected works

Beyond The Traveler’s Journey Home, the broader publishing pipeline is structured across multiple lanes: a companion series; a Year 1 spoke rollout of six completed and six in-progress titles; potential additional companion volumes; a Year 2 expansion of twelve additional spokes; a prospective revision/expansion of Turn to Final; and five staged fiction projects. Detailed working titles and one-paragraph synopses are available on request.
