Hänen osana Halo Manash yhtyettä tekemänsä elokuva Taiwaskivi on julkaistu DVD-kokoelmalla "Back to Human Nature" Njuta Films toimesta. Cederberg on myös osa Radio Wyrd podcastia. Cederbergillä on kulttuurialan tutkinto ja hän työskentelee kirjoittamisen ja elokuvatuotannon parissa.

Aki Cederberg is a writer, musician and filmmaker from Helsinki, Finland. Coming from a hereditary line of seamen, priests and doctors, his disposition and many of his interests and passions can perhaps be derived from these ancestral streaks. Relating to his engagement with various esoteric traditions and realms of knowledge and culture of which he has sought first-hand experience, as well as his interest in sites of mythological or historical significance both ancient and modern, he has travelled extensively. Cederberg has written a book published in finnish language titled Pyhiinvaellus ("Pilgrimage", Salakirjat 2013), as well as contributed to The Fenris Wolf book anthologies and several other publications. He has been part of several musical groups, with whom he has released albums and films, as well as conducted exhibitions and tours both in his homeland and abroad. The film Taiwaskivi, made as part of Halo Manash, was released on the DVD-collection ”Back to Human Nature!” (Njuta Films). Cederberg is also a part of the Radio Wyrd  podcast. He has a Bachelor of Culture and Arts (directing and scriptwriting) and currently works in writing and film production. He lives in Helsinki, and enjoys boxing.

This website functions as a resource on his writings, travels and current works.

 

THE HOLY IS WHAT CONNECTS MAN TO THE TRANSCENDENT AND ETERNAL.

It is the hidden source of cultural vitality and a mysterious wellspring of renewal.

Part travelogue, part memoir, and part spiritual autobiography, Holy Europe is the story of one man’s quest in search of the holiness that still abides in the land of his birth: in sacrificial groves and grottoes, sacred trees and ancient monuments, runestones, and inspired works of art and architecture created by the visionaries of recent centuries. These are the reservoirs of an age-old tradition of holiness that could rejuvenate European culture, opening the hearts and enlivening the spirits of her wayward sons and daughters.

Idealistic and irreverent, heartfelt and witty, Holy Europe is a guided tour through the secret histories of a continent. As the distillation of the author’s journeys over many years, this impressive compendium of word and image represents a timely and poetic clarion call.

AKI CEDERBERG was born in Helsinki, Finland. His first book Journeys in the Kali Yuga (Inner Traditions, 2017) chronicled his travels to discover the unbroken magical traditions of the East. Aki conducts rites and rituals in accord with Finnic spiritual tradition, and is chief editor of Porvoon Kipina, a magazine focusing on esotericism, history, art, and culture.

Holy Europe is illustrated with photographs taken by the author’s wife and traveling companion JUSTINE CEDERBERG.

Ei sanat salahan joua eikä luottehet lovehen;
mahti ei joua maan rakohon, vaikka mahtajat menevät.

Words shall not be hid nor spells buried;
might shall not sink underground, though the mighty ones depart.
