Norse Pantheon - Tumblr Posts
I’m working hard on this project of mine: a comic about norse myths and lore.
The working title is “Of(f) Ragnarok”.
These are some studies for some of the main characters, if you want to know more you can dm me or support me on my ko-fi
Something different from what you can usually see on my blog, but here is a commission I finished very recently (well... Today, to be honest 😂).
I don't know a lot about Norse mythology (only the basics, y'know), so it was a pleasure to discover an interesting character such as Sigyn and I loved drawing her
Thank you again for your trust and patience 🖤
Sigyn, by Lunidäe
A few months ago, I went to a fantasy fair in Mons (Belgium) and I got to meet the fantastic and always lovely Lunidäe @luniidae
I commissioned her for a Sigyn fan art, and DAMN, isn't it amazing? It kinda reminds me of Uderzo? :D Such amazing talent!! <3
Fenrir: devotional acts + offerings + memes because why not (UPG). 🐺
Feeling angry is extremely valid and important. You can offer it, especially if you have anger issues. All strong emotions are an excellent offering! From anger, frustration, anxiety, everything is valid.
Triggers. Many of us have things that can trigger triggers, and we can give all that to the great wolf Fenrir. You don't need to justify it to give it to him, just do it. He'll understand.
Howl and growl. We've always been taught a lot about keeping our composure, and honestly, I don't give a shit. Bring out your inner savagery and allow yourself to walk on all fours, growl, howl when you're alone. Devour the meat on your plate, muss your hair and move like an animal in your room to the beat of a song like Welcome To The Jungle.
Dedicate the pain, the suffering. The pain of your muscles when you get a tattoo, the pain of your skin when you get a tattoo and the pain when you get a piercing. It can also be the pain of your traumas, the pain your inner child felt, anything is possible.
Donate to wolf protection centers, even adopt one where you donate money to take care of it! Do not keep it as a pet, of course.
Wear outfits, accesories, stuff in general, in black, brown, or earth-colored.
Practice self-care. He appreciates this very much.
BE YOURSELF. He was put in chains for expressing himself as he is. Do the same: be yourself, speak for yourself, express what you feel, your opinions, and stand up for those who cannot, either because they are shy, or because they are people who have a disability, for example people with paralysis.
Take trips to the mountains, or surround yourself with nature whenever you can. Listen to the sound of the rain, admire the color of the forest, its smells, everything.
Free yourself from your chains: go to therapy to heal everything you need to heal so you can free yourself more and more.
Be kind to stray animals. Leave food for stray dogs, water, etc. And if you can't, be kind to them, give them a smile, a cuddle, etc.
Offer him the anger or helplessness you feel in situations of injustice.
Offer him meat. If you don't eat meat, you can tell him without fear! You can offer him not to eat animals so that they do not suffer, it is also a beautiful offering. Thus, like him, they will not be tortured.
Offer him your trust. He was betrayed, so let him know that you will not. Place your hand on his mouth to let him know that you trust him completely.
Offer him your company. He is extremely lonely, locked up in a cave totally tied up and with a sword through his jaws. He loves to be accompanied.
Amen to that.
And from a pagan point of view, I do believe anyone who really had the chance to practice with both Loki and Sigyn can tell you how strong their bond is. So it still amazes me that so many people simply won't listen, for the sake of what, narrative? Even in the pagan community from what I hear, which makes it all the worst.
Defender of Sigyn
So we often talk how Sigyn defended and protected Loki. It's in the official sources of Norse mythology, after all.
However, @roruna pointed out to me today the Guttenberg project of Norse mythology; or, The religion of our forefathers, containing all the myths of the Eddas, systematized and interpreted, by Professor R. B. Anderson.
In his work, this scholar ennumerates several of Loki's names and kennings. One of them I had not seen yet, but it warmed my heart to find out about it, and how it totally confirms Loki's GOOD relationship and love for Sigyn (if anyone dared to doubt it *looking at you Marvel, Marvel fans, Joanne Harris, Rick Riordan, Neil Gaiman, Melvin Burgess and the others...*)
That kenning is: "Defender of Sigyn"
In other words, Sigyn protects Loki, and Loki defends Sigyn.
They are a team and they have each other's backs.
Yes, Sigyn is Loki's ride or die, but FOR REASONS. Because he loves her and will defend her if anyone dares to attack her.
Now, I would be SO NICE for the modern writers to stop spreading Marvel's lies, and depict Loki & Sigyn as they are supposed to be : a LOVING pair, who would do anything for each other, and whose bound was much stronger than Gleipnir itself.
These are simply amazing! 🖤
