The grave of a völva, a female shaman and seer in Norse mythology, was discovered in Köpingsvik, on the Swedish island of Öland. This grave contained several intriguing artifacts that provide insight into the völva’s role and status in Viking society.

One of the most notable items found in the grave is an iron staff that measures 82 centimeters long. This staff is adorned with bronze details and features a unique model of a house on top. The term “völva” translates to “wand carrier” or “carrier of a magic staff” in Old Norse, indicating the significance of this artifact. The staff or wand was an important accessory in the practice of seid, a type of sorcery practiced in Norse society during the Late Scandinavian Iron Age.

In addition to the staff, the grave contained a jug from Central Asia and a bronze cauldron from Western Europe. These items suggest that the völva had connections to far-reaching places and was likely a part of the upper strata of society.

The völva was dressed in bear fur and was buried within a ship setting, or stone ship, which also contained sacrificed animals and humans. This type of burial is indicative of the völva’s high status and the reverence with which she was regarded.

These findings are on display in the Swedish History Museum in Stockholm. - Source: Pagan Trader ThePaganTrader.com

"Happy national Sami day!"

Happy birthday to the Sami people!

I absolutely adore your culture and admire you for standing strong and continuing your traditions! I decided to draw a little drawing of Hel and Jabme-Akka, just two underworld goddesses that share the same type of afterlife but are from different cultures✨💕

A witch’s take on a wind chime. Well, I was going to make a Valhalla ladder with cinnamon sticks (though it’s typically made from driftwood), the bug of the full moon bit my ass and I was compelled to make this. Made from large cinnamon sticks, of which I kept two for top and broke up the others. Bay leaves woven in between, 3 roses I have dried myself. What’s important to know is that the yarn was anointed with a sacred ritual and protection oil (I rubbed the oil on my palms and threaded the yard through as I made everything). Cinnamon sticks are amazing for protection, cleansing, banishing, and grounding. Amazing prosperity and health. I anointed this while a cedar spray, protection spray, anointed (dipped a feather in each oil and brushed over everything) with Go Away Evil, Protection, and Thor oils. You can hang this up in your home and it serves a number of benefits (don’t get me started on how rad bay leaves are). I braided some yarn and let it dangle while thinking of intention. This keeps your home safe, happy; full of love, laughter, health. It wards from sickness, evil eye, negativity energy from work or otherwise. It is also very telling for those in the spirit realm, to tread this path with respect (on both ways) and to keep any from causing any mischief in your home (well, not too much that is). Thor was petitioned as well, to wield his hammer and smash anything that threatens my family/hearth/pets. Witchcraft is just so much fun and I love the beauty that comes from it.
