It occurred to me that your interpretation of "Loki's stealing then replacing of Sif's hair" could have other interpretations.... As you were telling it, I immediately came up with my own interpretation (based on other myths from other cultures along with farming practices employed since prehistoric times). My (intuitive) interpretation: After the harvest, the plant bodies still remain on the land, but then the FARMERS purposely burn the remnants of the crops leaving the land scorched and barren, but in doing so, they assure a beautiful harvest for the next year. If you simply leave the leftover plants to decompose, there sure could be benefits from the compost, but sometimes it also gives shelter to pests and diseases that wait out the winter to feast on next season's crop. So, burning it offers the best option (in many cases). As you said later in the vid, Sif's golden hair is symbolic of a bountiful harvest. Hey, I'm new to the channel and am loving it. Having an Icelandic mother, I am hungry to understand my own heritage better (than my own mother does)... 😃

Family history was not a subject of conversation in the family.

I'm an eclectic pagan on a left-and path that includes Norse influence among others (when you're of Scottish/Irish/French/German ancestry living on Turtle Island, you kinda have to do it that way bc so many of those pagan traditions are land-based/folk practices and thus I can't practice them here, plus I can't find anything about Scottish pagan practice at all here so... 🤷). It's so nice to get an objective view of religion. So hard to find 😅

Such a fantastic analysis and scrutiny. I wonder if Heimdallr too is associated with a more ancient and profound Norse mythological platform because of his somehow vague and specific maternal lineage. I think there can be some interactions between him and Thor as rainbow and rain/thunder could be put together in the fertility category.
2 жыл бұрын
Yes, Heimdall is a particularly hard one to study in terms of the pagan associations related to this deity. It's hard because in Snorri's version of Ragnarök Heimdall actually plays the role of the Archangel Michael; on that one Snorri didn't even bothered and it's quite clear the Christian associations. However, and fortunately, there are other works of literature, kennings and Skaldic poetry. There's much to tell about Heimdall as being one of the ancestors of humanity, but perhaps most especially is his relation to the number 9 and his 9 mothers, which again gives us an indication of his connection to magic and creational-powers. Some people like to use Heimdall for their far-right political ideologies because Heimdall in the sources is described as being white, although colours in Old Norse myths in relation to deities is never in relation to ethnicity but rather easy colour-associations with the functions and attributes of deities. White is in reference to wool. Heimdall is related to wool as a much needed product to make clothing but also rich garments, and related to sheep, goats and especially the ram. I'll explore Heimdall some day, and also the rainbow bridge concept, which is closely associated with the rainbow-serpent the "shaman" rides into the Otherworld, attested in many Eurasian animistic mythologies.

pretty amazing for an introduction, i would highly recommend this to anyone with an interest in thor or norse mythology. i cam away from this feeling as if i knew far more than before, especially about the history. oddly enough, i have been watching jackson crawford and he said that loki was not actually a god of fire, i don't know whether this is right or not
2 жыл бұрын
I understand why Jackson Crawford says that, and he isn't wrong if we only look at the etymological roots of Loki, which is what he has done. His argument is that people have made the common error of equating Loki and Logi, and as such the common misconception is that Loki is a god of fire because of the similarities in name with Logi. This argument isn't wrong; indeed, etymologically speaking, Loki (Danish: Loke) and Logi do not have the same etymological roots. However, that's not how mythologies and folklore works. It's not about the root of languages, but instead about purposely creating sound-similarities to help making easy associations and remembering content in oral tradition. And I repeat: "sound-similarities in oral tradition", nothing to do with linguistic roots. This is all over every world-mythology. Loki and Logi sound similar, because they are meant to sound similar, to create an easy association and remembering the cultural and traditional content in the myths. Jackson Crawford, in my opinion, is one of the very best we have nowadays on the field of Old Norse language, but his field isn't archaeology, history, neither mythologies nor folk traditions, and he knows that, and we know that. So we do have to be careful were and why we place some arguments because they might lead to other misconceptions. Loki wasn't a god, he was a trickster spirit, and he was indeed related to fire (among other things); not just and only, but also. To this day in Swedish and Danish folklore Loki is still very much related to fire, heat, summer and the hearth, as he was in the past. I've done a video explaining this and I have placed the bibliography at the end of that video too, entitled "Loki the Trickster Fire Spirit". If you have the time, please do watch it, thank you: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Ztl8dsx80pjWeoU.html

Hey dear bro, first thank you for your work, and as often I'm trying to share in return : in France where I live, many places kept 'thor' in their toponomy through the ages (Thor, Odin, Freya, borvo...) I'm actually living in a city named Thorigny (Ignis in Latin means lighting a fire) so it's something like ''the fire of thor''. Actually there's a large number of Thorigny in France, I'm in Thorigny ''sur Marne'' Marne is a river, it's gallo-roman name is Matrona, the mother goddess in other words. We can't read the signs anymore but the old gods are still there ;) Thanks again bro, I like your channel a lot ❤ Add-on about the relationship between serpents/dragons/serpentine shapes and Thor's ''electric'' aspect is what Howard Crowhurst revealed about the telluric currents (about the ''tromenie de Locronan, a long procession in the Locronan village in french britanny which is all along about piezoelectric and/or électromagnétic currents rejuvenating people every 6 or 7 years) mastering the serpent is mastering the natural earth energy (and Thor's mom is ...) I see there another aspect of the pattern in terms of today's science said with myths for everybody to understand. 👌

40:20 It is also mentioned in Grimsnismal that Thor has the biggest home in the realm of the gods. So it makes sense when the most people go tho him. 48:49 The german word for thunder is Donner, which is very similar to the name. I know the name Donar but have no idea where it is mentioned in sources. If one looks at the stellar constellation of Orion you can see a man with a phallus and also a big club at the same time. The club is part of Orions lower body. I guess they have seen this constellation as Thor.

The use of a hammer in cultic context is way older than christianity though. Also to be seen rock paintings, and with objects given in a grave (=stone axes with no practical aim). The hammer is also there in other Indo-European religions as the object of the god of thunder. Also remember the symbolic use of it in justice (as it is still nowadays). It had also its Roman parallel. Also in the expression of Sub ascia dedicare. In symbolism the Axe and Hammer are interchangeable. The hammer is a mains for initiation. To defend the worldsnake= death and rebirth.

So, what about iconography in Norse religion? Was it used? It is not talked about much. I am 3D printing an awesome Thor Idol. That is why I asked. I got Hel, and Odin on his steed as well. I am going to likely gild them as an offering, not necessarily as a "fetish" proper. Though it will be used as a focal point in rituals and connection to the deities. Hel is my favorite. She is very potent, yet very stable.

@Jayston Kaliko. Ya but Norse Magic,Beliefs and Myths called Arith a Woke Fake Pagan:( i don't see modern politics in Ariths studies though. Which is good!

Bonjour ! Ça serait vraiment cool d'avoir les sous-titres en français, même si c'est par Google Traduction. Serait-il possible, s'il vous plaît, de les avoir, ne serait-ce que pour cette vidéo ? Merci beaucoup !

Holy crap on a cannoli! This was a great video. I used it as a podcast for my 2-hour Drive. I learned so much more about Thor than what I even thought I knew. It really helped out with my journey into paganism

For all things occult I rely on Odin. I always had issues with runes until I began work with Odin. They were too simple. However through his eyes (or eye) I see that is the awesome part. Revealed messages lack ambiguity. They are to the point yet can still gain deep insight. The latter I doubted. Now I do not doubt. I have become obsessed with them and their construction.

There is a little story: some twins are having a conversation in their Mothers womb. "Do you think that there is an afterlife, when we will have to leave this realm?" I forgot how it went further but the point is already clear. From the Inside in the Womb (Cave) it looks like the End of Life to leave that Womb (Cave), so it represents Death but is also represents Birth into the Afterlife, where the "real" Life on and not any longer in the Earth (surrounded with Water (amniotic fluid) takes place after a journey through the Channel (River). The Baby or in this Case the Twins have to swim through the great Flood (Maritime Law: Mother of God is named Mary) into the Afterlife, where the crazy Churches and their Priests claim to be the Representatives of God (Mother God) via a faked Birth Certificate which they see as Death Certificate which allows them to "own" all the Children especially after they had sacrificed in their nice Hospitals Jesus (the Placenta and the Umbilical Cord), who was hanging on the Tree of Life (Placenta) ups and down. From this point on we can find out all the rest including all the Stories (his story) and so called Myths: over and over again until Men will accept that they are Men and not Frauen (Freyas) and will not need any longer their foolish Games of Crossdressings.
