Runestones reveal story of Viking Queen medievalists.net/2023/10/runest…
In Old Norse society, honor was paramount. Claims against honor frequently led to duels or blood feuds as a means of resolving disputes and safeguarding reputation. Such violent feuds could endure for generations, unless settled through peace or a truce. 🖼 By Pierre Raveneau.
Mjǫllnir, the hammer belonging to the god Þórr, is used as a powerful weapon saving the gods many times, and will be taken by Þórr's sons (Móði and Magni) after Ragnarǫk. It was (and still is) also worn as a pendant during the Viking Age. Mjöllnir - Thor Hammer by InnerSpirit.
Berserkers, 'Berserkir' in Old Norse, were warriors who fought in a trance-like state, often howling and biting their shields, until they became weak and exhausted. They are often depicted wearing a 'bjarnarhǫfði' (a bear-head) and not wearing body armor. 🖼 By Jonathan Gebel.
Hail lady Frigg, wife of Óðinn, come Ragnarǫk Óðinn will fall and she will again experience another loss, this is the second grief of Frigg. Have a blessed Frjádagr and a good Friday twitter, do not hesitate to share your love for the gods. 📸 "Frigg" by Pascal Quidault.
Hail to Vár (or Vór), a Norse goddess associated with overseeing oaths, vows, and other private agreements made between couples. She is good to invoke as a show of trustworthiness, but she may punish the oath-breakers who don't keep their word. 🖼 "Her oath" by Corey McGill.
Huginn ("thought"), Muninn ("memory"), are two ravens belonging to the highest god, Óðinn. These ravens provide Óðinn with information from all across the world, because of this he is also given the name, Hrafnaguð (Old Norse for "Raven-God" - "Hrafn-Guð") 🖼 By InnerSpirit.
The Jera ᛃ rune means year and harvest. This rune can represent a passage of time and abundance. Praise the Gods, and may your crops be plentiful. 📸 "Jera" by Alexandru Morariu.
Goði (ᚴᚬᚦᛁ), a prominent figure in Old Norse society and a religious leader in the Norse pagan faith. Goðar played a pivotal role in maintaining the religious traditions and beliefs of their community, and occasionally offered sacrifices to the Norse gods. 🖼 By J. L. Lund
Ymir's flesh was used to create earth, his blood the ocean, his bones the mountains, his hair the trees, and among others; his brain was used to create clouds in the blue sky above. It can be said that the clouds are Ymir's thoughts. 🖼 By Torgeir Fjereide.
Mímisbrunnr (ᛘÍᛘᛁᛋᛒᚱᚢᚾᚱ, Old Norse "Mímir's well"), is a sacred well belonging to the wise Mímir. The well exists beneath three roots of Yggdrasill and is said that the water contains so much wisdom that Óðinn sacrificed his eye for a drink. 🖼 By Robert Engels (1903).
Týr, god of courage and law, is known for his bravery and self-sacrifice. He lost his hand to Fenrir, a monstrous wolf, to protect the gods during Ragnarǫk, he was the only one among the Æsir brave enough to do so. 🖼 By Seraphinus Calvin.
Yggdrasill (ᛁᚴᛏᚱᛅᛋᛁᛚ. Old Norse potentially meaning "Óðinn's Steed"), is the name of the world tree. Yggdrasill is a massive and sacred tree that is said to connect the nine worlds in Norse cosmology. Yggdrasill: The Mundane Tree (1859). By Finnur Magnússon (1781 - 1847)
Harold II, king of the English, slew brother Tostig and Harald Hardrada, king of Norway, at the Battle of Stamford Bridge #OTD in 1066. A lone Norwegian held the bridge for some time in a later tale. Of the 300 ships that had descended upon Northumbria 24 returned. ©Angus McBride
Shield-maiden (or "Shield-maid", Old Norse: "Skjaldmær" - ᛋᚴᛁᛅᛚᛏᛘᛅᚱ), a female who chooses to take up arms as a warrior. Shield-maidens were mentioned often and looked at positively in sagas. Many graves have also been found containing female skeletons with weapons.
Freyja, a goddess of love, beauty, and fertility, inspires bravery in warriors, owns the falcon-feather cloak for flight, and cherishes her powerful cats that help guide her path. 🖼 "Goddess Freya" By Iqnatius Budi.
