Loki Deity - Tumblr Posts

Gorgeous and relatable. 🔥

When Loki guides and shows the ways that seemed impossible. Just drawing what it looks like in my meditation practice.

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. ❤️

The Cave-under drawing by CinderR0SE

this is the under pen drawing for the painting i’ll be doing of loki bound in the cave, the moment when the venom hits his eyes. the top part of the snake got cut off and all the details of the cave itself are going to be added when the painting is actually made in photoshop later. there are a few kennings associated to this story so i’m unsure if the name of the finished work will change or not. so lots of people have heard this story: loki is pissed hes not invited to a party where he was always supposed to be cause oaths are only *sorta* important, gets drunk and raucous at a party and kinda had enough of everyones shit involved and calls out there various overt shortcomings and personal lies/indignities and admits he murdered baldr. he flees the party afterwards in sort of a dramatic huff and realizes he’s probably screwed and should hide cause the threats weren’t funny anymore. he hides in wilderness near a stream and makes a rope to catch fish to eat with and thereby inventing netting. but when he hears thor coming to find him, he burns the rope and turns into a fish; he jumps into the water to hide and thor somehow figures out how to net from ashes left behind and catches him. vali and narfi, in the interim, are murdered as somehow a proper tradeoff for baldr; although they were totally innocent of everything but existing. (narfi is turned into a wolf and murders vali, because i guess loki having one child that was an uncontrollable wolf and messed around with wasn’t enough for everybody?) loki is caught and forced out of his fish form, for the life of me i don’t know how thor could manage that, and the intestines of vali are used to bind loki in a cave and skadi affixes a venomous snake that evidently sprung a leak, defying the natural order of the reptile kingdom too, and it drips on his face. i guess asgard has a leaking snake problem? (extensive knowledge of snakes tells me that that snake hadda be tortured a bit too because it would have to be permanently adhered in a position that forced it to constantly be milked of its venom, and yeah i understand its supposed to be a magical snake but if we are gonna use childrens intestines to enslave a god the very least someone could have done is discussed that poor snake too) and sigyn holds a bowl over lokis head put eventually would have to empty the poison out and it would fall into his eyes as originally planned and caused writhing so bad we experience earthquakes in our world (midgard). i am convinced snorri sturlson never saw an actual snake. so with all that in mind the end result of loki being freed is bring forth ragnarok where he takes on his ‘breaker of worlds’ kenning that MANY people know well and love arguing about. while it is overtly obvious with research that the story of loki’s binding is heavily influenced by the christian conversion period (and the bound devil narrative) as well as the christian politician who penned the story (wilily ole snorri), its worth noting that i personally find the story incredibly important regardless. i *personally* ascribe to loki, while a deity over many things, to a traditional funerary god as a manifestation of sacred funerary fire, bringing gifts or sacred offerings to other gods (since offerings and sacred dead were often burned). i notice too many things to not draw this conclusion personally and this binding story seems way more related to attempting to remove ancient peoples from there sacred dead via forced conversion and binding THAT in a hole in the ground. if you remove loki, you pretty much remove all connecting and fluid actions between worlds, gods and anything else otherwise and at the very least his function was so nessesary that its uttering ridiculous to malign it. and as a result in our world (cause again old stories need to be viewed in every lens possible), if you demonize, remove, isolate, and ultimately abolish traditional funerary rites and cut off people from there sacred dead its easier to manipulate and coerce them because they feel alone. its kinda backwards though, because the majority of people during this time period were actually committing the very acts that ultimately loki the god became accused of and ultimately punished for. the early conversion periods historically were notorious for going out of the way of outlaw and ban ANYTHING that had to do with the dead because they knew it was extremely effective to there targeted peoples. i feel like the narrative of loki being bound is, in many ways, representational of this AS WELL AS the targeting of someone who socially falls into the ‘other’. with all this in mind, i find lots of classical representations (paintings, block prints, sculptures) of scenes like this made thoroughout history, not even the modern ones, and loki looks particularly well put together oddly enough; whether he was viewed as the nordic devil, maligned villain, ‘other’ that needed to be stopped in society, or ultimate betrayer at that particular time period. he often looks somewhat irritated, maybe some weird faces here and there but mostly calm if not willfully determined. also he is depicted bound with ropes and chains and all in all looking *somehow* attractive when its actually supposed to be his sons intestines, horrifically painful, and anything put pretty. i feel personally that if people want to look into the cave and present something like this, that they might as well get a feel of what it might actually look like to see a god bound with venom dripping in his face. going through the effort to insist a god is tortured and then depict him as anything else is not doing service to the story whatever the original stories motive was (or historical accuracy, divinely inspired or otherwise) nor to the rawness that truly needs to be expressed. i plan on further illustrating many of the points i brought up here in works of art i make in the future, but the cave imagery i think is a good spring point; not even just for the treatment of loki and how no one really wants to look at it, but ultimately the various layers of meaning that could exist here. this will be a completed painting in the near future. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ do not remove my watermark, and if reposted elsewhere give me credit and link back to my main site, thanks! ~cinder. 

does Loki count as a chthonic god? because I've been burning incense for him as an offering, but I've read it somewhere (I can't remember where) that incense isn't a good offering for chthonic gods. what are your thoughts on the topic?

These take me forever to write up so have an audio clip of me prattling instead:

(Apologies for stumbling over my thoughts and for the audio quality. People are welcome to transcribe!)

Prayers•

Flame-hair, your soul burning into the night, Throwing caution to the wind And casting the die of fate, Teach me your fearlessness. Lie-smith, your sharp words like daggers, Cutting through illusions to the bone And revealing the reality we refuse to see, Teach me your clarity. Silver-tongue, whispering carefully veiled truths, Sowing shrouded mystery in your wake, And leading only the clever onward, Teach me your secrecy. And leading only the clever onward, Teach me your secrecy. Gift-Bringer, recognizing all the overlooked, Giving rightly earned reward where it’s due, And in turn, blame as well, Teach me your justice. Scar-lip, ending silence in the face of injustice, Grinning down at the outcasts And rallying your voice with theirs, Teach me your anger. Pain-holder, accepting your punishment, Embracing the consequences of your deeds, And taking the fall of those who are weaker, Teach me your resilience. World-breaker, harbinger of chaos, Spitting fire upon the stagnant And carving the spear of change, Teach me your courage. Cruel-striker, slanderer of the gods, Burning the inefficient and stale, Revealing potential in the ashes, Teach me your insight. Sly-walker, throwing your mischievous grin about And casting laughter into the darkness Where before there was only despair, Teach me your joy. Shape-changer, manipulator of all walks of life, Confidently adapting to every situation, Commanding the strength of any form, Teach me your cunning. Hearth-fire, warmth of my heart, Your arms a sanctuary where none is found Light and life of the home I can always return to, Teach me your nurturing. Sky-treader, ever true to your wild heart,Letting none even try to contain your spirit As free as the sky itself, Teach me your passion. Hail Loki, And thank you, my God, For everything you bring to my life.I love you so.

Loki is the Norse god of mischief, and the hard cold truth, even tho he may be cold, he is wise, and charming in many ways.

Heres a weird dream I had!

so a very large horse was charging at me, like larger than they make horses and hide from it at first and then I confronted it and got mad, it reared up at me and I pushed it into a car and slammed the door on it, planning to cook it in the summer sun, it started changing to a black coat and grew more frantic at being trapped.

somethingweird that happened the other day

some weird looking viking spirit claimed I was a 'son of Loki' and laughed and gustured to my cunt and was like 'are you sure about that

question for the lokien's!

do you think he would like my little pony?

New art poll!

Not me crawling back to tumblr because of a new thing I'm into

So unrelated if you're a Lokean hmu-

Loki's daughter's name is Hel

So I guess you could say he's a

Hel raiser

So I got covid last week and was in a pretty bad way for the first few days. I kept consciously and unconsciously reaching out to Loki and I felt a cold nothingness in response. I began to fret and worry, thinking I had upset him somehow. A few days later when I was feeling better, I took my dog out for a walk. Before exiting my building, I saw a giant spider just chilling on the wall. It felt like Loki was saying "I'm still here dumbass"

Man my hel raiser joke popped off where do I go from here

I got some extra money cus I recently got a tipped position so I casually spent $80 for Loki :>

Awe yeh
