What are some of your favorite songs/art pieces/stories that you associate with Tyr?📚🎶

Also how do you feel about the idea that he was once the principal Norse deity/sky god?🌤

Sorry for the delay, this took a bit and I'm easily distracted 😅

Favorite songs!:

-"Tyr" by Wardruna

-"Tyr" by Danheim

-"Don't Lose Your Heart" by Dream on Dreamer

-"Throne" by Bring Me the Horizon (this isn't one that I associate with him as a deity; it's closer to a tool a therapist would use to help a patient, with Tyr as the therapist in this analogy)

Those are the specific ones. He seems to enjoy anything by the first 2 artists, and in general I like he has a pretty broad taste in music.

Art!:

Check out my #ledestjerna tag, and my Tyr Aesthetic board on Pinterest! The board has things related to my relationship with him mixed in as well

Stories!:

I honestly love every story of him that I can get my hands on, but the myth of how he shows up at his dad Hymir's place, lies about Thor's name, and steals Hymir's cauldron, takes the cake. It will forever be hilarious to me.

How do I feel about Tyr having once been the principal Norse deity?:

Aaaaalllll kinds of feels. I. wish I had a time machine so I could see what a Tyr-headed pantheon looked like back when it was a thing. I kind of wish it still was, just because it makes more sense to me. I always got the feeling he stepped down willingly, too, not like he had a mutiny on his hands. And a whole lot more that I honestly just don't know how to put into words.

*Týr not the, sorry about that! damn you autocorrect, I know what I'm trying to say. was just wondering how things with Týr were going, I love hearing people talk about their relationships with the gods

They’re good! The season change plus some recent work drama have been exacerbating my anxiety, so he’s been helping me stay sane. And generally I’ve felt him lingering around more than usual, which is nice.

I bought this throw blanket from Target a few weeks ago, but didn’t start using it until last night. When I saw it, I thought Tyr might like it, and I’m always looking for things for him. The first thing I did was wrap it around myself, and holy gods, was I right. He was instantly perked up, and I kept getting a feeling of cozy happiness. I haven’t been able to communicate with any of my gods with any consistently lately, and this is the deity that I’m a godspouse of, so of course I wanted to keep this line of communication open as long as possible. I put the blanket on the bed when we settled down for the night, and it was the best sleep I’ve gotten in weeks.

Re-doing intros anon: That was a cool thing to read and does answer what I meant. Except for the joint ritual. I more meant that I wondered if you ever did something like giving things to Tyr and Fenrir at the same time?

Ah, okay! With those two it’s actually fairly common for me to sing for them at the same time. I have a playlist of some of my favorite songs that I listen frequently on my drive to work, and some of them for both gods. So far they’re the only ones I do that with, but I might end up offering things to Thor and Taranis at the same time at some point in the future.

My wedding in September is also going to feature somewhat of a blót in it later that day, but I haven’t decided which god(s) we’re going to dedicate it to.

Followed for more insight into Fenrir (I work closer with Hati but like to honor family as well) I also really liked your take on Tyr. I don't really like most of the Aesir for personal reasons but he's the first "true Aesir" (not Vanir or Jotnar) that I would consider ever saying hello to!

I glad you enjoy it! Makes me happy to see him getting more popular. And depending on which myths you believe in, Tyr may not be pure. One of his parents (I think it’s usually just his mother) is told to be a giant, and in some stories they both are. I call him Tyr Hymirsson, because him being a son of Odin has never made sense to me. (But if that’s your belief, then you do you, I’m not here to police harmless shit like that).

Ah, I was rambling. If you ever have any questions about either of them, feel free to ask 💙 Let me know if you do end up working with him!
