"If you want something done right, you should do it yourself."

I have wanted Emo fashion featuring the Gods I worship and believe in, and in the Scenemo server I mod it turns out I wasn't the only one. So, I decided "Oh, screw it!" and decided to start this project - and yes, you can actually buy these shirts! Right now, three designs are available of Fenrir, Hel and Jormungandr. More is being worked on, and it won't just be Norse specific so keep your eyes peeled.

If you like what you see, please consider supporting this project! If you want behind the scenes goodies, you can join the server I mod by checking out this post by the server owner; https://www.tumblr.com/xx-k1tsun3-k1d-xx/686684282845102080/rawrrr-its-teh-server?source=share

Invocation to Hel

[[Prayer written by a member of the Godsring.]]

Hail unto thee Hel,

Oh goddess of Helheim,

The one who brings us into your warm embrace,

Who grants the lonely and restless a place to belong.

We invite thee, oh sister of Fenrir, sister of Jorgamandr, daughter of the mighty Angrboða and Loki into our lives at this time.

May your presence of peace fill our aching hearts,

May your hands comfort us in all walks of life.

We ask that you, oh goddess of half life and half death,

Lead and guide us as our souls travel down this ancient path.

Oh Hel, we praise thee and thy presence as it enters into our lives,

May it always be there,

Your loving light guiding us from the darkness.

Hail Hel!

Altar Bundle for Hel. Orange mums, dandelion leaf, plantain, mugwort with lambs quarters and dandelion roots for extra “oomph” factor. All of these herbs have an association with the dead.

Hel: I dunno maybe the horrors would be less daunting if we were holding hands

Móðguðr: with each other or with the horrors?

Hel: I've got two hands

I was wondering if you knew of any books that talk about Hel? Or any good books for someone wanting to get more into norse paganism? I've been "on the path" for a few years now, but i feel like i still know almost nothing. (Please ignore this is coming from my rp blog, i didn't realize when i set up side blogs that it would only let me send asks from the 'main' XD)

Much to my dismay, there’s so little content out there about beloved Hel in general. *sighs* I love her, so it makes me sad to see how few scraps of actual concrete information we have on her left. And the rest of the shit out there is UPG. As far as books, the only book I know of isn’t a book that’s solely about her, but it mentions her in passing and it puts her in the dark goddess/crone box that I really don’t think she belongs in tbh. Like, sure some goddesses are dark goddesses. But crone doesn’t apply to every single goddess that doesn’t have children and is serious. 🥲 So again, sorry. But I honestly don’t have a good recommendation. If anyone does tho, please reblog with its title and author. Or comment. Because I’m interested as well.

Skadi (left) and Hel (right) are looking quite lovely today 🥰

I’ve been debating on “minimizing” my altar but I like all the stuff on it. I might switch things out every now and then. I’m a “maximalist” at heart.

Hii 🤗 Hope you are well. I love your art! Will definitely get a print or two when I get the chance.

I was wondering if you would tell me (your vision) about Sigyn and Hela?

Sigyn has been with me for some time now, and though she doesn’t communicate much, I feel very connected to her. Through her I had a couple of meaningful encounters with Loki, even though I don’t work with him directly. I would like to strengthen my bond to her but not sure how.

Hela recently made herself known in things I’d been carrying for easily over a year. It never occurred to me that she was there until she came out almost shouting. I feel like she’s expecting me to give her her due but I don’t know what to offer her.

I’m hoping that hearing about other pagan’s ideas and relationships to these goddesses might help me get a clue.

Thank you so much and I hope you have a wonderful day ✨

Hi 😀 thank you Im doing good. And thank you, always warms my heart that so manny pepole seemes to like what I do ❤️

Ok sure thing. I dont work with Sigyn much but perspectives are good.

So Sigyn. For me shes a goddess of strenght in tuff times, a goddess of strengt and light in the dark. This is also why for me she is included during Disablot, when the nights are long and the the world still cold, to find strength in the one that stod for endless nights awaiting light and reelife.

I find her also as a goddess of victory, makes sense do to her name meaning "female friend of victory". I find her surprisingly innocent compared to her husband, with a good nature, but very choosy of who she helps. Like, less active. I love that you also, just like me, finds her also not comunicating much haha. In short I see her, as a burning start, The one that burns the britghtes in the darkest moments. Idk if this helpes sense I dont work with her much, but hope its of some help.

Idk what would would be the perfect offering for you to give her, its more what the offerings means to you that matters, the symbolic meaning.

But I offer her just good foood, bread, baked goods and a lot of drinks, wine, mead, honey water and hard alcohol. But try what feels right for you.

But if i was you, I say, maybe the best thing you can give her is your time.

She is one of the least talked about goddesses and with not that manny who do rituals to her often, most pepole are all about her husband or Thor or Odin and Freya. So I say, just sit down in a Nice place and think and feel, dont expect her to comunicate a lot or something grand or mind blowing magical thing. But just sitt and be, and have her as your focus. Let that time and moment and space, be a offering to the one all to manny forgotten.

And then we have Hela. Or as I call her, Hel.

Hel I worked with a lot. For me she is maybe not death it self, but death centric, or the one that rules desth. I see her as the one that watch over bones and graves, queen of the dead and to whom all shall go to sooner or latter. Like the one that watch over those in the grave and your ancestors. As well as her being a direct line to them.

When I hold rites to her around Alvablot, I often wear a wodden or ceramic mask I made, something other local hesthens sometimes do as well, but a cloth works just as fine to hide your face. Its to honor her during the blot while also protect yourself and not bring death in to your life. We also have a statue of her in the Temple year around, but coverd her up with a cloth, do to the whole temple just feeling diffrent and well, full of death after we put her statue there. But I dont see her as bad or evil. More of a, loving embrace, like a wathfull kind hug that I one day get to trully feel. So its not that Im afraid of her, just carefull and respectfull of her.

Its hard to describe without getting to personal. But I hope you get it.

To her I often decorate the altar with dead colourfull leafs, a lot of candels and bones and teeth and animal parts. Offerings to her may include dried flowers, something ones alive but now dead, yeat still remaining its beauty. As well mead, wine, baked goods, candy, fruits and meat from the hunt.

A thing that I do tho, thats not really for her but that I like to do, is happening soon tbh.

Around all souls night/all saints night here in Sweden when the graveyeards are filled with candels, I go supper dupper late and often also the night after. Like when there is no one there but like 1000 candels are lit. I just calmly walk around and relit each and every candle that for some reason or other gone out during that one night. Someone was there earlier so the person is belloved and special to someone. I dont light my own on strangers graves, but I make sure that all those candels put there with love and sorrow get to burn to the very end and ligt up the night for both the dead and the living. Its not for everyone, but its a thing for me.

You also get to see a bunch of spooky stuff if you are lucky haha.

I find it intresting that you find her as shouting, I see her more as quiet and always in controll, with a calm in mind. Not in form tho. Thats more loud. My fiance who do a lot of Sejdr work describe her as flashes. Not half a corps and half a healthy woman. But like if you were in a room of blinkning lights and she go from looking dead to looking alive over and over again, no one of those forms was true to her being, because she is fully both at the same time, the living death.

Now you dont have to do it the way I do. Try things out and dont be afraid. Try the offerings I give her if you like, but its ok to just experiment and see what works for you.

And as always, the way I see them is not absolut or "the true way". Everyone see them and work with them diffrent and I always want pepole to try to find what works for themself. But I hope my perspektive was of any help.

Sorry about my english btw, engelska är inte alls mitt bästa eller mitt första språk och dyslexi är en riktig jävel haha.

And thank you again, and I hope you also have a lovley day ❤️

July for Loki using 30 Days of Deity Devotion prompts, Day 5 • Members of the family – genealogical connections

Loki Laufeyjarson, Loki Son of Laufey. Laufey is Loki's mother: Laufey the leafy Ásynja (female Æsir), Laufey the Birch set on fire by the mighty Jötunn Fárbauti, the Lightning that strikes and brings the flames to the ground. According to this myth, Loki is of Jötunn and Æsir blood, belonging to both worlds and none at the same time, making him a liminal being from the very beginning. I personally feel Laufey is originally a Jötunn, later included among the Ásynja, but it's an UPG (unverified personal gnosis). Laufey gave birth to two other children, Helblindi and Býleistr, Loki's brothers. Sigyn is Loki's wife, and little is known about her. According to my own feeling, she belongs to the Jötnar too, but it's another UPG. Together they have two sons, Narfi and Váli. The Lady of Járnvid (Ironwood), Angrboða, conceived three powerful children with Loki: Hela, Queen of the Dead; Fenrisúlfr, the Wolf Fenrir; Jörmungandr, Miðgarðsormr, the Sea Serpent that hugs Miðgarð. To all of these children, Loki is father. And yet there is another children, too often forgotten, to which Loki is mother: Sleipnir, the eight-legged horse he conceived in the form of a mare with the stallion Svaðilfari. You may be familiar with Sleipnir being Óðinn's mount. Óðinn is also Loki's blood brother by oath, another detail some prefer to forget. Their relationship may be complex, but if we wanna talk about Loki's connections it seems only fair to me to include his good old friend Grímnir (Hooded, Masked One), too.

When Loki chooses to "work" with you, he'll introduce you to his family, sooner or later, in no particular order. He's a family person, and just loves his dear ones, especially his children, with all his burning heart.

Art by @muirin007 , love this depiction of Loke with his kids!
