Mads Mikkelsen should play Odin in a movie 100% I’ve been saying this
Yo anon have you seen the film Valhalla Rising? He basically does!
Hello! I see that you have experience with Thor. I have been considering worshiping deities lately, especially from the Norse Pantheon. And on Thursday, I had a dream and Thor was in it. In it we made direct eye contact and he introduced himself as protector of those who need protecting. How do I know if this is like a message or not?
Hey, tbh I can't give you a definite answer. What I do personally is get a few divination readings to clarify, but that might be out of your budget/not what you want. You could also petition him to give you a sign if it is really him wanting to work with you. I haven't worked with him in over a year, he kinda ditched me for being a dumbass so im probably not the best person to ask, so apologies if my answers not the best
Name: Valravn, Valravne
Area of Origin: Denmark
In Danish folklore, a Valravn (“raven of the slain”) is a supernatural raven, appearing in traditional folksongs and tales. According to the tales, when a king or chieftain was killed in battle, forgotten and unburied, ravens would come and eat his remains and become Valravn. The raven that ate the king’s heart would gain human knowledge and form, capable of performing malicious acts, gaining superhuman powers and was seen as a terrible animal. In other accounts, a Valravn is described as a restless soul in search of redemption, and can only free itself from its animal limitations by consuming the heart of a child; doing so would transform the Raven into a knight. Online sources alternatively describe the Valravn as a half-raven half-wolf creature, though historical documentation of this in Danish tales and songs is either hard to come by or does not exist. NOTE: If anyone has any examples of the wolf/raven hybrid appearing in traditional songs or tales, let me know. Otherwise, I have yet to find any verified sources of this and am interested to know if it’s a contemporary invention.

The English Runes Card Set by TreeSeer
New Year’s Tarot Sale
From today (12/31) to this Saturday (1/6/18) I’m holding a sale at my etsy store on the three New Year type readings I’m offering. Already discounted, the three are being discounted 15% further. After this week the spreads will be retired until next holiday season.
The spreads are:
The Christmas Tree spread - This spread is made to evaluate the new year that is coming up in one’s life by using the framework of a Christmas Tree to evaluate the gifts coming into one’s life, the harsh realities of the new year, what will make those realities more pleasant, and the overall theme of the year.
The Yule Spread - My practice of Yule reflects that of Northern European tradition and this spread reflects that and is split into not just Yule but two other important events that took place around the same time: the Dísablót and Wild Hunt. The Dísablót was a sacrificial holiday that encouraged good harvests. The Wild Hunt is when the supernatural, especially the undead, roamed the earth more frequently and the Hunt tried to rein them in. Together, these three sections evaluate the gifts born into one’s life in the upcoming year, how to encourage their growth, and what needs to be culled in the upcoming year.
The Ragnarök Spread - This spread is told from the point of view of the jötnar, each slot representing a different key event or player in Ragnarök. This spread examines what old regime we are held to that restricts us, what foes we must slay, how to slay them, and eventually how to cleanse ourselves entirely of the old and what will be reborn from the ashes.

Hárbarðsljóð: Thor and Odin’s Argument - Dr. Jackson Crawford
So as promised, I’m posting this video by the aforementioned Dr. Crawford for A Very Hárbarðsljóð Holiday. The Hárbarðsljóð, for the uninitiated, is a verbal smackdown from the Poetic Edda between Odin (disguised as a ferryman) and Thor, his son. I’m guessing most people who follow here (or not) are familiar with the professor one way or another, so if you’d like to just watch his commentary, feel free to hit play and enjoy. For the holiday, however, I’ve compiled some of my own commentary with timestamps on the video, so if you’re not a fan of YouTube, are interested in certain agendas that I also promote, or just want to read some wine-infused sass from someone without a degree who doesn’t have to worry about tenure, that’ll be here under the cut.
Keep reading
In the early 1800s a man named Little Jon lived in this so called earth cabin (swe. ‘backstuga’) located in southern Småland, Sweden. An earthen cabin is built partially buried in the ground, in this case there’s three walls of stone and one wall made of wood. In Sweden earthen cabins was common in the forests from the 1600s until the late 1800s Link

why are hot chocolate instructions always such filthy liars
“one packet” “one tablespoon” “two wedges”
BITCH we both know you’re lying, it is going to take at least twice that to make this into the decadent chocolate-drinking experience i deserve
all right, look: the ur- hot chocolate is made with whole milk heated on the stove, good unsweetened cocoa powder, and sugar.
this said, hot chocolate is a comfort drink, and sometimes when you want hot chocolate, it’s because you’re in no state to take on the ~whole project~ of heating milk on the stove in a pan that will need washing afterward and making sure it gets hot enough but doesn’t boil etc. what you want is no-fuss instant.
in this case, the simple no fuss no stress hack is to make as directed but use only two thirds to three quarters of the specified amount of boiling water, and then top it up by adding milk out of the fridge just the same as if it were coffee or tea. the only limit on the total amount of milk vs water is according to how hot you want your drink. if you have a very big mug, it’s definitely good to make two packets’ worth at once like this.
For a decent balance between fancy and less difficult: mix cocoa powder and sugar and the teeniest pinch of salt in a mug, add a few tablespoons of hot water and mix with a whisk of fork, fill the mug with milk, mix it again, and shove it in the microwave for a couple of minutes. Abd there you go – only the mug and fork dirtied, minimal time spent, and you have amazing hot chocolate
Or: Heat milk in microwave until steaming [approx 1-2 mins] add 3 heaped teaspoons of the wonder that is CADBURY’S DRINKING CHOCOLATE. Stir briskly. Be glad you are British.
The hot chocolate that all others are but a pale comparison to is the incredible stuff I had in northern Italy, which was so thick you needed a spoon to consume it. I’ve managed to get close to its perfection a few times - it seems to require bringing whole milk (or half and half) to the point it is actually bubbling, ‘cause that thickens up the proteins, plus really good chocolate grinded up into pieces and melted into the dairy. (There are some cafes here that serve “drinking chocolate” that is also A++ but that requires leaving the house.) Italy pretty much ruined me for more watered down versions, to the point that if the chocolate doesn’t come through strong enough, and the liquid isn’t rich enough, it’s no longer comforting, it’s just a theobromine-delivery system. (Which, granted, is sometimes what I need, but it’s a last resort.)
Ultimate hot chocolate recipe time. Measure yourself a mug of milk, pour 90% into a pot. Add a few drops of vanilla essence, a few teaspoons of demerara sugar and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Heat through and bring up to a boil, whisking to mix the ingredients. Meanwhile add a teaspoon of cocoa powder to the 10% in the mug. Mix well to create a paste, then add the hot milk gradually while whisking briskly. I am not responsible for any naps that may occur afterwards no matter how much stuff you had to get done.
