Jól (Yule) "Viking Christmas"

Jól was a celebration of the sun, a celebration of happiness, fertility and peace, a feast where you made a toast for the gods and made a blót (sacrifice), to pray for a good year to come.

Right about the 21st of december it is winter solstice, the day of the year with least amount of sunlight: typically a cold, wet and “grey” day. And that’s why the vikings/heathens/asatru, celebrated Jól. With great food and drinks and in the company of friends and kinsman!

There was no Christmas tree, but there was the blót, where you “danced” in a circle to symbolize the seasonal change, and sang songs about the sun or the gods.

Jól was celebrated from about year 200 and until, Christianity took over, and Jól became Christmas.

One of my favorite findings, the Trundholm sun chariot, dated 1400 BC.

Just a gentle reminder

If you’re a Norse heathen and believe that “race mixing” is bad

remember that many of the gods are born from interracial pregnancies between the Aesir, Vanir, and Jotunns.

If you’re a Norse heathen and are transphobic or homophobic

remember that many of the gods will alter their forms drastically, the most notable being Loki changing into mare and being impregnated by a male horse, and later giving birth to Sleipnir

If you’re a Norse heathen and fascist

remember that vikings were largely democratic and would regularly hold votes to decide legal matters, and were incredibly accepting of other cultures
