Happy spring equinox! I've done a blót for Freyr and Freyja, but also Njord and Nerthus. Offerings to land spirits and a walk through the park. Peaceful and simple. I want to do a spell but I have to sit down and prepare it.
Hope all of you have prosperity, love, peace and health.
Gullskögul (Golden Skögul)
(Skögul means "shaker" or "one who incites battle"—often linked to the Valkyries, but here, it is the one who shakes the fields, the one who stirs the wind through the golden stalks before winter arrives.)
I was thinking of spring and Norse Mythology/Lore and decided to work further on this.
Thank you @piratespacex for coming up with the filler names for the recently discovered 9 daughters!! 🥺
All of these are just my headcannons, filling in the blanks of the possible daughters of Njord that we never got to know. None of the kids are cannon but Freyja, Freyr, Ráðveig and Kreppvör!
Info on them below ⬇️
Those who are orange belong to Nerthus and blue to Skadi!
Freyr (Lord) & Freyja (Lady)
We know the Vanir twins already lmao!
Ráðveig (Advice)
Ráðveig meaning "advice" is the daughter of Njord and Nerthus. Like her name suggests she is great at giving advice and her burning passion is to aid her people. After Njord left Vanaheim together with her oldest siblings, Ráðveig was suddenly in charge of things until they heard from them again. She tried her best to provide for the Vanir gods, especially after the newly held war but it proved to be a struggle but her efforts were not in vein. Ironically enough she developed a platonic relationship with Hoenir, the Aesir god who couldn't give advice.
Állisvilum (Eel)
Állisvilum meaning "Eel" is the daughter of Njord and Nerthus. Like her name she is as sly and threatening as an Eel and lanky in appearance. Like her sister Freyja she is a total badass on the battlefield and thrives there better than anywhere else in Vanaheim. She fought in the Aesir Vanir war bravely and hates the Aesir gods with burning passion for not only separating her family, but slaughtering her people.
Veigrippa (Alcohol grip)
Veigrippa meaning "Alcohol grip" is the daughter of Njord and Nerthus. She is the Vanir goddess of mead and is the biggest party girl to ever be known. Often she spotted serving the gods of vanaheim, brewing and dancing around. Veigrippa is incredibly jealous of the Aesir gods for possibly having better mead then her! To the point she might have tried to steal their goat Heidrun from them a few times..
Ljóssa (Light)
Ljóssa meaning "Light" is the daughter of Njord and Nerthus. She is very bright and outgoing, almost the personification of light itself according to the Vanir people. She wants nothing more than for her people to thrive especially after the consequences of the war and is very active in their community, often found near Ráðveig. Surprisingly, she doesn't blame the Aesir gods for the war but rather Gullveig for sharing so much knowledge, especially to Odin.
Nernhardt (Bear strong)
Nernhardt meaning "Bear strong" is the daughter of Njord and Skadi. She's the eldest of the couples children and strives to be the strongest to prove that her jotun legacy isn't one to mess with. She idolizes her mother and grandfather heavily and is very competitive, even against her own sisters and mother. She also gets very easily offended, because she can't really understand when someone is being genuine or intentionally mocking her.
Sýrult (Acidic)
Sýrult meaning "Acidic" is the daughter of Njord and Skadi. She is a total menace and is cruel because she can. Like acid she spreads nothing but pain and will try her best to burn right through you with a grin. She got most of her nature from Skadi's bad side and hates the Aesir for what they did to her grandfather, even though she wasn't born back then. It was also her idea to hang a poisonous snake above Loki during his punishment, she's proud of it too!
Feigarbet (Coward's bet)
Feigarbet meaning "Coward's bet" is the daughter of Njord and Skadi. She loves making bets with people, cheat and steal through her scandals. Boasting about her fake achievements and instantly regretting it when people prove to be better than her or want their things back. She will flee and hide behind her family, constantly in a state where she can't trust anyone because she knows people are out to get her. Which is where her cowardly nature comes in, even worse for her.. She is unable to control herself.
Snjórelsi (Snowfall)
Snjórelsi meaning "Snowfall" is the daughter of Njord and Skadi. Surprisingly, unlike most of her family members she takes her nature from Njord and is a total sweetheart to everyone she meets, causing people to become confused on how she is related to such cruel people but Njord! She's soft, calm and collected, also very white in appearance hence her being named after snow.
Kreppvör (Crisis Aid)
Kreppvör meaning "Crisis Aid" is the daughter of Njord and Skadi. While it's a good trait to be careful and ready to aid someone in the need of help, Kreppvör often over does it. She's overprotective in her own way and very skittish, jumping at the slightest touch or sound. While her mother and oldest sisters moved back to Jotunheim after the divorce, she stayed behind with her father Njord. Which is why her name, despite being the youngest and less honorable survived through the legends.
