• Question. Do others here experience benefit from planetary hours and working with your gods?
    Do you know of this?
    Of course, I mean hour of Jupiter for Thor, hour of Venus for Frigg, hour of Mercury for Odin, Sun to honor Baldr (or Sunna), Mars for Týr, in this case.
    Or even, the associated runes being a focus during those power zones?
    By the way, apparently Njord would be syncretic to the Saturn hour, most likely?
    For multiple reasons, I would rather say Skadi. I won't go into those reasons here.

    I think this could be good as more than a singular post.

    Oaths and Oath Rings – The Bonds of Honor and Law in the Old Norse Society

    In Old Norse society, an oath was one of the most binding actions a person could undertake. A promise was not merely a verbal assurance but a sacred obligation, a bond between individuals, the gods, and örlög (fate) itself. Swearing an oath meant placing one’s life, honor, and future in the hands of the gods, and breaking it was to defy both human and divine laws.

    Oaths permeated all aspects of society and were used in legal proceedings, alliances, trade, warfare, and daily life. At the thing (assembly), an oath could decide a dispute when evidence was lacking. The one swearing an oath before the legal assembly often had to place their hand on an oath ring, a sacred object made of silver or iron, which was kept in temples or carried by chieftains and jarls. These rings were not merely symbolic—archaeological finds from Uppsala, Uppåkra, and Torsbjerg bog show that such rings were indeed used in ritual and legal contexts. In Njál’s Saga, the law-speaker Hrut swore an oath before the thing to assert his right to an inheritance, and in Eyrbyggja Saga, an accused man attempted to prove his innocence through oath-taking. The oath functioned as a legal guarantee, and anyone who lied under such an oath risked not only their reputation but also the wrath of the gods.

    But oaths were not sworn only in court. In war, the oath was a way to bind men to one another and to their chieftain. Warrior bands swore oaths of loyalty by touching an oath ring, a custom mentioned in the Kings’ Sagas. Breaking such an oath was an insult to both men and gods and could lead to blood vengeance. In the Völsunga Saga, Sigurd swore loyalty to King Gunnar but broke his oath through deceit and manipulation, setting off a chain of vengeance and bloodshed. Similar themes appear in The Lay of Atli, where betrayal and broken oaths are described as the cause of King Atli’s downfall.

    For a Norseman, oaths were also part of everyday life. In marriage, vows of fidelity were made; in trade, oaths were sworn regarding the quality of goods; and between friends and foster brothers, oaths could seal eternal loyalty. In Laxdæla Saga, a broken oath of loyalty led to a prolonged feud where honor demanded bloody retribution. Those who broke their word risked being labeled a níðingr, an outcast with no rights or protection in society. Being called a níðingr was one of the worst insults a person could suffer, and there were few ways to restore one’s honor after such a disgrace.

    The gods do not look kindly upon oath-breakers. Loki, who once swore a blood-brother oath with Odin but later betrayed the gods, is destined to be bound in a cave while venom from a serpent slowly drips onto him. His fate reflects the inevitable justice that befalls those who break their oaths. The gods demand loyalty and honor, and those who violate their oaths can expect divine wrath to find them sooner or later.

    The oath was not only a promise between people but also a connection between humans and the gods. In the Landnámabók, an oath ring in the temple at Uppsala is mentioned, used in religious ceremonies and legal proceedings. Similar finds have been made in Norway, where large silver and iron rings connected to temples and chieftain seats have been discovered. In Heimskringla, it is told how kings and chieftains carried such rings and had their men swear oaths of loyalty by placing their hands upon them.

    Thus, oaths were more than just words. They were a link between people and gods, between the past, present, and future. Archaeological finds, sagas, and legal texts show how deeply rooted oath-taking was in Old Norse society. To swear an oath was to take örlög (fate) into one’s own hands, to place one’s life in the scales of the gods. Keeping one’s oath was to preserve one’s honor, one’s rights, and one’s place in the world. Breaking it was to lose everything. And even today, the gods watch over the oaths that are sworn, and those who break them do so to their own ruin.

    How do you view oaths today? How seriously do you take the promises you make?
    And what does it truly mean to keep one’s word in a world where oaths and promises have, in many ways, lost their value?

  • many question !

    Did Odin and hes brothers create Vanaheim?
    Odin hung himself from tree to get knowledge of the Runes , but it was Freya who thought the Seidr/magic of the Runes , which meens she knew the Runes before he did , and she is Vanir !

    If Odin and hes brothers createde Vanaheim , they create Freya and the Runes ?

    Why go to war whit Vanir , to gain something you have create ?
    and therefor have knowledge of it !?

    War starts when Vanir march on Valhalla , after killing Freya 3 times whitout her dying ! Odin throw gungnir , toward the Army and war start !

    Gugnir was made by the Dwarfs after the peace and behead of Mimir !?


    So did Odin and hes brothers create the Physikal World of Vanaheim ?
    but the Spirit World of Vanirs and the Runes a older and should be align whit Muspelheim and Niflheim at thet start of time at Ginnungagap?

    If you anser pls state , if this is your opinion or if you have info about it !

  • Uploading first photo. My latest work.
    There's so much to say about it and I don't know if there is a character limit.
    I can start you off exploring.
    In the upper right corner under the disc of light is a hare. If you've got good eyes you can see the eye is sort of red.
    Reflective of the light above, somewhat softer. Spring tones.
    I start with extremely dark disturbing layers and continually work with it like a metal.
    All the elements are involved.
    This one presents more earth and air.

    The hare is important as, of course an ultimate springtime fertility fylgja. I work with many.
    I stay surrounded by a party of guardians at all times.
    The works could be thought of as hyperspatial knotwork and Interdimensional runes.
    My work with the runes began when I was a teenager.
    As you can see, the hare is in motion. Great quickness, leaping through the air.

    It is harder to see, you may need to stare a while but almost subliminal and silhouette is a tiny wide eyed baby underneath the hare.
    If I was going to call this one thing, it might be The Hardest Lesson.
    For the serpent rising along the right side of the canvas. See the gridding pattern like DNA.

    This is something we all have to face.
    The serpent wants to take the hare.
    Rises to the throat to lunge and feed.
    Yet, now the wild-eyed infant hare, see that eye now as an insanely menacing grin on a face that is facing you, lunging at the serpent.
    It might be better if I upload videos at some point and zoom into parts and highlight things.

    The hare is one of the most important associates of the goddess, with feminine divine overall.
    In the upper left of the canvas one might get a sense of wings being spread and flapping and a bird ready to descend on either the serpent or the hare. Curved back and descending upon, talons extending to snatch up.

    To sum it up quickly, the lower left of the canvas is the tree trunk of the world tree. Where one can get a sense of the goddess shape, the feminine divinity, If you see the sky beside the tree as her back into her side and where the roots begin as her hips.

    I travel the world tree and have protected it. The tree we call Yggdrasil.
    Now my work is more intensive than ever after my findings and after the beginning of the war.

    My part in the war has been dealing specifically with a corruption that has taken root in it. A great offense.
    One I seek to purge, actively.

    I do not speak of it to get others involved or recruit.
    I've been a man of the world, but the vikings taking me in after the fallout has meant so much to me.
    It was Odin who spoke highly of me at the Thing. It was the High One who said, 'he is one of us'. Since most here interact with All Father, look into it for yourself.
    I have solid Germanic roots but my ancestry is also cosmic. I wouldn't be considered a 'pure blood'. I could have chosen from many paths.
    I said I would rather burn in Hel as a viking. It wasn't then that it was decided.
    The values are my own.

    I am always in love with Brigid. That never changes.

    This is skrying, it's also the cauldron or the Well of Wyrd. It also is Seiðr, only nonsexual. I know the history of that, and many other things.
    I am by no means an expert, and wish I spent more time learning earlier on.
    I tend to be like the berserker, more than the sage.

    I post this here as I will intentionally be bringing all of my work here from now on. As much as I can. Please understand that I work multiple jobs.
    These are for this community to become stronger in magics and meditations, to be inspired.

    For a long time, I gave it freely to the wrong people. Those who are like that serpent, if in this case, we would be that hare.
    In that regard, it also offers knowledge of the sometimes frightening and terrific masks shamans don. To protect. Not to use their magic to go around preying on the light of others. You will see endless of these faces and voices of ancestors revisited in my work.

    Truly, this is amazing being here with you, and something that I honor.
    This went way over over what I was going to write here.

    I'm having a hard time figuring out how to upload. Social medias are not really my thing lol

  • So I wanna make a post about spiritual psychosis and how I have been seeing it a lot more in recent years within Nordic polytheism for example people thinking they are married to Loki or to any other god seems to be a symptom of trauma and most of not all spiritual psychosis stems from improper guidance on the path and trauma for example one may attach onto Odin in particular and think that he is actually conversing with them and that person if asked would probably say they had an abusive or un present father figure with proper guidance one can be taught how to navigate trauma and use the path to aide in doing that without falling into this mental state Loki wed people every single one I have asked has had some type of experience with abusive partners witch isn’t wrong I just think when you say there is no right and wrong way to practice to these people and say everyone’s practice is valid no this particular path that people in spiritual psychosis are on is not valid its harmful and can become dangerous to themselves and others instead try to help them properly the upholding and excusing of spiritual psychosis in Nordic polytheism needs to stop people will not go outside if they get a certain rune pull and people will believe that if they see a dead raven they will pass away or something bad will happen and will not leave their house for moths on end because of this

  • Regarding the Artifacts of the Gods, the Dwarves-Masters, and Dark Excess: You’ve correctly identified the artifacts and their essence, but also consider that these magnificent gifts were ultimately returned to the gods, as they originally belonged to them, albeit in a different form. The spear Gungnir, symbolizing absolute precision; the ship; the boar; the sword; and, of course, the hammer, which was altered through Loki's intervention—these all returned to their divine origins. Finally, the ring that sparked much of your discussion. You were right to deduce that the ring was necessary to replicate and reproduce the elements of the proto-foundation of Good, elements that could not be replicated in the realm of Helheimr. The ring’s design is based on the principle of time; it does not operate continuously but periodically, meaning it is linked to time—something that does not exist in Helheimr. Therefore, the ring could not function there and had to be returned to Odin. This explains the fearsome reputation of the ring, which was later immortalized in the Song of the Nibelungs and the Saga of the Volsungs, where it is said to bring misfortune. Why misfortune? Because it was created in a world of evil, embodying the very evil that people once rejected, recognizing it for what it was.

    Bevarandet av vår Tro och Kultur.

    I hjärtat av de nordiska länderna, där de snöklädda fjällen möter de vidsträckta skogarna och de djupa sjöarna, finner vi en rikedom av kulturell och jordnära arv. Det är här, bland de dramatiska landskapen och de uråldriga traditionerna, som Nordiska Asa-samfundet tar sin plats som en bevarare och stöttepelare för vår tro, vårt arv, vårt ursprung och våra traditioner.

    Asatro, eller tillbedjan av de nordiska gudarna och gudinnorna, är en tro som har rotat sig djupt i den nordiska kulturen och historien. Den sträcker sig tillbaka till forntiden då våra förfäder, med sitt djupa band till naturen och kosmos, fann förankring i en tro på krafter som Oden, Tor, Freja och alla de andra makterna. Denna tro har överlevt århundraden av förändringar och utmaningar och lever idag vidare genom Nordiska Asa-samfundet.

    The Preservation of our Trú and Culture.

    In the heart of the Nordic countries, where the snow-covered mountains meet the vast forests and deep lakes, we find a wealth of cultural and earthly heritage. It is here, among the dramatic landscapes and ancient traditions, that the Nordic Asa-Community takes its place as a guardian and pillar of our trú, our heritage, our origins, and our traditions.

    Asatru, or the worship of the Norse gods and goddesses, is a belief deeply rooted in Nordic culture and history. It dates back to ancient times when our ancestors, with their deep connection to nature and the cosmos, found anchorage in a faith in powers such as Odin, Thor, Freyja, and all the other mighty beings. This belief has survived centuries of changes and challenges and lives on today through the Nordic Asa-Community.

  • Fancy dropping in on Odin this weekend? Several place names in England and Scotland are believed to be derived from the name of the god Odin (Old Norse Óðinn) or his Anglo-Saxon counterpart, Woden (Old English Wōden). Here is a list of such places:

    England:

    Odin Mine: Located near Castleton in Derbyshire.

    Odin Sitch: Also near Castleton, Derbyshire.

    Wambrook: In Somerset, interpreted as "Woden's Brook."

    Wampool: In Hampshire, meaning "Woden's Pool."

    Wanborough: Found in both Wiltshire and Surrey, derived from "Wōdnes-beorg," meaning "Woden's Barrow."

    Wansdyke: An ancient earthwork in southern England, translating to "Woden's Dyke."
