recently I´ve connected with the Norse Goddess and Valkyrie Eir, and would like to sum thing up about her, since I´m preparing to make a few offerings to her.
Eir is a norse valkyrie and a goddess, protector and healer of the Norse deities.
She is associated with medical skills, healing, recovery, mercy , help and protection.
Her appearance is of a slender build, reddish/blonde hair, pale skin, and blue eyes.
(i´ve called to her for mental healing, i´m getting better. But I suppose that it works better for physical healing. either way, it works and i´m thankful)
offerings, symbols and how to contact her
You can light a green or red candle for her while praying, or as an offering.
Mortars and pestles, healing instruments and bandages. Saunas. Healing herbs, home remedies, and folk medicine. Copper. The colour red. Hill tops.
magic charm pouch should be made of red cloth with blood-stanching herbs such as Yarrow or Bistort. Comfrey is traditionally one of Eir’s herbs, and it is a famous wound healer that speeds tissue repair. Red stones are also appropriate – she seems to be fond of garnets.
Self note: I´ll draw the goddess, make some healing tea and give it to her as an offering, probably will light a candle as well. Will go outside for a walk on a hill top and start using the tincture me and my dad have made. Maybe will make a ring from copper and leave it on a tree on a hill top. Might also make an offering stone for her, inculde herbs, red and green colouring in it.
“Physician of the Gods, the Merciful One.
I give praise to you so that you may have the strength
I thank you for all you do and have done for me
I ask you to keep my family and loved ones healthy.
To help me when I need it and to have mercy
When I am in need.
Help me make the right choices
So that I can heal myself when needed
And be prepared for your skill and magic
I give this prayer as a thanks and as praise.
Hail Eir, Greatest Physician!”
