One of the things that I deeply value in my relationships with both Freyja and Freyr is that they meet me where I am, as I am. I do not have to change in anyway for them to have an intimate, loving and respectful relationship with me. They fully accept me as I am. In fully accepting me as I am, they transform me. I grow and develop in ways that I ( Read more... )

Personally, I am not comfortable with doing things in relation to Freyja and Freyr that feel out of date to me. I get that for some folks learning dead languages, how to use ancient weapons, wearing ancient style clothing, and having rituals that use ancient things like wagons is meaningful. However, for me all of that stuff feels, well, out of ( Read more... )

I’ve been thinking about Njordr and Nerthus. Even though literary references to them are about a thousand years apart they are connected in at least three ways: etymologically, ethnologically, and cultically.

Just as our family members and friends say a lot about who we are so do our goddesses and gods. In my experience those of us who ( Read more... )

The Brisingamen (Necklace of the Brisings or Shining Ones)

“Freyja owned the Brisingamen (Necklace of the Brisings or Shining Ones).”

“Now on a day went Freyia afoot by that rock of the dwarfs, and it lay open: therein were the dwarfs a-smithying a golden collar, and the work was at point to be done: fair seemed that collar to Freyia, and fair seemed ( Read more... )

When I write about Freyja and Freyr telling me about their prized possessions or anything else, I take their answers as being for me. I do not take their answers as being for others, except if they ring true to them. In other words, I do not think that others ought to think what I think about Freyja and Freyr. I think that others ought to think ( Read more... )
