Y'all, Thor is so great. If you need just a solid buddy, he's your guy. We just shot the shit for a while tonight, and it was just lovely. He really gives a shit about us, about humanity. (I mean, protecting us is kinda his Thing™���, after all.) Having spent a little more time with him, I see why he and Loki share so many stories with one another. Neither of them is dumb or weak, but their respective strength and cunning pair really nicely when you wanna get up to some shit. Even if your partner in crime has a slightly different agenda than your own. Add Odin into the mix and you've truly got a sitcom on your hands. Earlier this week I was talking with Thor and Loki together, and Odin just showed up like, "Who the fuck was gonna tell me y'all were hanging out?" What a kooky fucking bunch. I love these dorks. 10/10, would hang out again. ❤️

Um, Odin, Wise Old God, Allfather, Great Wanderer, Mad God of Creative Ecstasy, excuse me, sorry, pardon, hi, hello, what the fuck is happening and how do I make it Continue

So I started getting into a near daily prayer routine. As Odin is central to my practice, he gets some focus and praise every time I pray. Then suddenly, I have things falling strangely into place.

Saturday, I get an email. "Hey, we wanna phone screen you for a job you applied for." Cool, cool, we can do that Monday 1pm opening you have.

Monday, 1pm. The recruiter and I jive very well. She's telling me about the job like it's already my first day. She's impressed with me and wants to move me forward. "Shoot, I'm down two managers this week, so a time might be hairy and... hang on.... oh someone literally just canceled. Can you do Wednesday at 9am?" Fuck yeah I can do Wednesday at 9am!

Cut to Wednesday. I get there, recruiter just so happens to be walking up to check for me just as I walk up to the door. I'm brought in, shadow somebody for 20 minutes (he was really cool, from Los Angeles just like I am), and then go into the interview.

And I don't know what happened. I've never been that self-assured and confident and articulate in an interview. Especially when I'm asked what sets me apart. But I knew exactly how to carry myself, exactly what to say, exactly how to sell myself. And they had more interviews to conduct, but the managers who interviewed me were definitely impressed.

Then I get an email from the recruiter. "Hey, it looks like you didn't fill out an app for this position. Let's have you do that." Turns out they likely pulled my info from a months- or years-old application.

It's freaky and it's a huge confidence booster and what the fuck

Also the opportunity is at a COLLEGE

Maybe this is morbid and emo, but maybe one of the reasons I feel more connected to Oðinn lately, like I'm understanding him better, is that I'm just so.... Actually Autistically and Hermit-ly unsure of how to even relate to people anymore.

And that's really lonely and kind of fucking suck honestly.

So after a long, fun day with Loki yesterday, this morning, my wife points this out to me:

We see buzzards around our area all the time, but never have we seen them congregate like this on this property. While I could see death-related birds being a sign from Hel, my immediate thought was, "Oh, Odin wants attention now." So uh, I guess today is the day I work on typing up those rune meditation posts and maybe do even more meditating? 😅

I just imagine this is Odin and Loki riding Sleipnir across the Bifrost into Midgard to kick off every and all Pride parties and celebrations this month.

Please reblog and share around. The higher the sample size, the better! I want to know who's working with the queer bois the most lol

Hypothetical Interviewer: Wow, so the pagan gods TALK to you? What an honor! Do they tell you secrets of the universe? Do they give you commandments?!

Me: Uh.... Mostly they just watch me cry and uh... give me hugs and like... encouragement to keep living? Kinda like the way my parents should've acted? But also, they give ethereal fists bumps and pat my head and stuff. They're super nice to me and I don't deserve --

Uh. They said it's because I think I don't deserve it that they do all the more hugs.

Please note I do not necessarily agree with Maria Kvilhaug’s interpretation of the translations.

When she made these videos, she was investigating a personal pantheistic path with Freyja as the ‘core’ deity, which seeps through her interpretations and videos. I cannot estimate what her position on the same topics is today.

However, her translations of old Norse are sometimes fascinating and worth further contemplation and investigation.
