#godess of fidelity

[dank-art]

Part of a small comic

[barefoot-a-pregnant]

This is so sad and I think a big thing, because of them, many people don't find themself in the norse pantheon. Because all they know and hear about the "Odin!"/"Wallhalla!" - Type of People.

But the Norse Pantheon is so much more!

Where is Idun? The Godess who watch over the apples of live, without them the Gods would die? Who is the Love of Bragi, the God known for his talent of music?

Where is Sigyn? Wife of Loki? Best known for her everylasting fidelity to him?

Where is Frigg? The Mother, who wandered every inch of the realms, so that her beloved son would not die a tragical death?

Balder - the bringer of new beginnings? Of new Light?

Do you know, that Thor is often pictures right next to Frigg? Spinning with her? Because he is also a God of Agriculture?

Or what is with Frey? The God of fertility of Nature?

Believe me, the old Norse Gods so much more than warriors. Yeah, they are Warriors, because often the old norse had to be. If you living in isolated "This are we" - "These are the others" - Groups, you better know how to fight for your life!

But for the most of them, this was not there daily bread. They were farmers, hunters, foragers, merchants, bards, priest and so much more.

If you only talk about the wars and the warriors, you dismiss 99% of all old norse People and like 90% of all norse Gods.

Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely adore deity depictions made by artists online. However, it sometimes gets unsettling when deities whose aspects are centered around entirely nonviolent concepts are drawn as hyperviolent, warrior-type of characters. This is especially common in depictions of Norse deities. I can understand why this tendency would be, considering some of these depictions are made for promoting video games, and such. It’s plenty more surprising, however, when such drawings can be traced back to pagan sources. Now, this highlights a larger, more concerning issue: the general perception of Norse deities by pagan informational websites. It gets easy to distinguish between the pagan sources I want to look into and those I want to avoid, based on the general image of some deities that they choose to present. I know I’ve talked about this in the past, but if you spread information on Norse deities but depict them all as “warrior Gods”—by only relying on hyperviolent representations even in the case of more “peace-oriented” deities for example, it shows you don’t care to go deeper than your surface-level understanding of a mythological pantheon that’s filled with diverse figures and nuance. And it’s especially concerning when this type of perception is spread by websites that advertise themselves as being 100% factual and unbiased. These types of sources generally reduce deities to a fixed list of aspects (“This or that deity is the god of this, period”) and it doesn’t help new pagans at all to explore the pantheon and their own perception of it. (This tendency is especially common on New Age websites, as they also tend to put up lists of unmovable correspondences while reducing the importance of UPG and personal belief in deity associations.) It doesn’t spark skepticism, reflection or curiosity. Let me illustrate: if someone who’s questioning their spiritual path and considering becoming pagan sees a super intimidating and ferocious depiction of Óðinn, accompanied by the caption “He is the god of death and war:))” (implied: he is the god of mostly that), they will likely not consider right away other important aspects of Óðinn as a deity, such as his association with wisdom, poetry, the afterlife and other, vastly more nuanced elements of his myth. Websites who present hyperviolent depictions of pretty much all Norse deities, even in the case of Frø or Njörðr, more often than not have some sort of ties with the far right or even sometimes with white supremacy. At the top of my head, I could even name at least two folkish pagan websites I stumbled upon simply because I was baffled by the images they put up online and sought to see who’d commission such pictures. These sorts of website also tend to reduce deities to a handful of personality traits and this can lead new pagans to view them as entirely two-dimensional. It’s a dead giveaway for sources to avoid, in my opinion. If you are a new pagan who seeks to better understand a deity’s areas of influence and general personality, I would advise you to double-check sources, to keep researching and researching until you’ve consciously made your own opinion of them. Don’t right away believe the very first source you stumble upon. This is all a personal thought I’m trying to express as clearly as possible, and if any of you guys have anything to add, don’t hesitate to share your own thoughts and experiences! I would be delighted to hear about them.
