episode Categories of the Cosmos in Norse Mythology Part 3 - Dwarves & Jötnar cover

Description

In this episode we get back into the genealogy of the Norse cosmology. I managed to make it through the Dwarves and a small part of the Jötnar before needing to break. I didn't get nearly as far as I had originally planned, but that's okay. At least it's interesting!

Categories of the Cosmos in Norse Mythology (Norse Genealogy) Part 4

🌿 Long-form pagan podcast — listen like an audio journey.   Hi there! I apologize for the slightly late posting. Today we are diving into another section of the Jötnar line. Sadly, or not, I didn’t manage to get all the way through it. So many new ideas and connections! We will get there, I promise. In the meantime, it’s a wild ride. I mispronounce things right and left. As I am not a native speaker of any Nordic language past or present - please be gracious. I did my best but some of those names I could barely get my tongue around, let alone past my lips correctly. Sheesh. Despite the stumbles, I hope you enjoy this list of rabbit trails I am hopping down. Perfect for spring, yes?   image:    Cover of 17th century transcription of Snorri Sturluson’s Prose Edda   drumming background:    drumming music - Sound Effect by Adinkra Audio www.pixabay.com

When Winter Steps Aside - Ostara, Ēostre, and the Changing of the Guard in Norse Myth

There isn't a lot of material available on Spring deities and practices for early Germanic, Anglo-Saxon, and Norse cosmology. But the Spring is still a time of transition that we mark. The Equinox is often referred to as Ostara in many traditions but what exactly do we do? It's still cold, snowy, wet, and freezing temps are definitely a possibility. Why is it "Spring"? Well, let's ramble along and see what we find.   Ramblings website:  https://ramblingsfromvanaheim.org/ [https://ramblingsfromvanaheim.org/]   image:  eggs in a basket - Image by Emb37 = www.pixabay.com [https://pixabay.com//?utm_source=link-attribution&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=image&utm_content=2254337]   drumming background:  drumming music - Sound Effect by Adinkra Audio www.pixabay.com
