Asatru sounds familiar. Could that be similar to Astarte, Isthar, Isis, or Inanna? Here is a good source by Nancy Marie Brown:

Asatru is a Scandinavian term consisting of two parts: ASA referring to the Germanic Gods and Goddesses and TRU meaning faith. Thus Asatru literally means faith in the gods, although it is commonly misunderstood to mean 'true to the Aesir gods'. The faith is also referred to as Odinism or Norse Germanic Heathenry.
