For Thurseblot durning the first full moon of the year.

Hail to the ancient Jotnar,
Guardians of the wild and untamed,
I offer a feast of meat, eggs and honey mead from my land.
To honor your strength and wisdom.

Thor, son of Jord, who battles with might,
Loki, trickster of the frost,
Skadi, fierce goddess of the mountains,
I acknowledge your kin, the giants of old.

May this offering be a bridge
Between the realms of man and Jotunheim,
Bringing peace, understanding, and respect.
Hail to the Jotnar, ancient and enduring.

Symbol of the month: Mother Goddesses

The Winter Goddesses of both the Slavic and Celtic traditions symbolize the life cycles of nature: the death of the old year, the rest and stillness of the Earth, and the rebirth that is assured with the return of spring. These deities are not merely figures of destruction or decay but of necessary transformation. They maintain the cosmic balance by ensuring that the cycles of life, death, and rebirth continue, holding magical power to both preserve and purify. Whether through the fierce, chilling winds or the protective nurturing, these deities remind us of the constant cycles of life in which destruction leads to creation.

Hel's Seal: What Is It? A Rune Stave of the Goddess Hel
Hel's Seal is a powerful symbol made up of two runes: Perth, crossed by Isa. It functions as a magical stave with the ability to close any channel or bond between things. The symbol is named after Hel, the goddess of Helheimr, the realm of the dead. Her word is final—when she says "no," it means a permanent "no." There's no room for argument, and this "no" applies to any bond, permanently severing it.

Mother's Night is coming:
The Goddesses of Winter Solstice

Hel came to me in a dream about a month ago. She claimed me as hers forever now. Tonight I went into my woods and left an offering and accepted her as my Goddess. I don’t know what’s coming down the spiritual pipeline but here I am! #hel #norsepaganism #norseheathen #goddess

When establishing contact with the goddess Freyja, it's important to remember her connection to the natural world. As a goddess of fertility and nature, you will have a deeper connection with her if you step outside human-made environments, away from the city. Freyja's realm includes forests, fields, rivers, streams, and bodies of water that remain untouched by human influence. Much like Artemis, she prefers not to dwell in places where humans reside.

In Norse mythology, Friday is a sacred day dedicated to the mighty goddess Frigg (or Frigga), wife of Odin and mother of Baldr. Frigg is revered as the goddess of love, marriage, fertility, and foresight, the ultimate protector of families and homes. She holds the power of prophecy, though even she couldn’t always change the future.
The very name "Friday" comes from "Frigg's Day," a tribute to her influence, which is echoed in languages like "Freitag" in German and "vrijdag" in Dutch.
In some traditions, Friday also honors Freyja, the goddess of love, beauty, fertility, and war. Though different from Frigg, Freyja shares similar powers and also has ties to death and the afterlife.
Friday in Norse lore is a celebration of feminine power, love, beauty, and the deep mysteries of life. It's a day to honor these goddesses who embody strength, protection, and transformation.

Not sure who’ll see this but I need to share a dream that I need opinions on. I dreamt this female entity, very dark energy with maybe multiple eyes or with shifting face that made it look like multiple eyes, came to me and said give me your arm. I did but was a little scared. She then peed on it and scolded me to not ever do something ever again. I don’t know what that something is! Then she said you’re mine now forever. As she was leaving she was holding a little girl’s hand. She could have been my late daughter or me as a little girl. I couldn’t tell since we looked alike at that same age. I woke up and my first thought was the goddess Hel. I was a little scared but also felt awe and reverence for her. Does this sound like the Goddess Hel? I’m am new to Norse heathenry.

PL

My idziemy poprzez sioło
Oj dodo, oj Dodole!
A zaś chmury poprzez niebo
Oj dodo, oj Dodole!
A my prędzej, chmura prędzej
Oj dodo, oj Dodole!
I chmury nas prześcignęły
Oj dodo, oj Dodole!
Żyto, wino porosiły
Oj dodo, oj Dodole!
Oj Dodolo, bożko miła
Daj, bożko, daj!
Nichbyś deszczem porosiła!
Oj Dodolo, bożko miła
Od dwóch kłosów worek żyta
Oj Dodolo, bożko miła
Od dwóch gronów dzbanek wina
Oj Dodolo, bożko miła

ENG

We are walking through the village
Oh dodo, oh Dodole!
And the clouds through the sky
Oh dodo, oh Dodole!
And we are faster, the cloud is faster
Oh dodo, oh Dodole!
And the clouds outstripped us
Oh dodo, oh Dodole!
They sprinkled the rye, the wine
Oh dodo, oh Dodole!
Oh Dodolo, lovely god
Give, lovely god, give!
Let it sprinkle with rain!
Oh Dodolo, lovely god
A sack of rye from two ears of rye
Oh Dodolo, lovely god
A jug of wine from two grapes
Oh Dodolo, lovely god
