Sorcery

I follow back as slytherinpirate. Blog dedicated to my practices in sorcery/seidr, as well as my worship towards various gods, particularly Freyja.

Icarus

If I have to fly to get to you,

Then make my own wings is what I’ll do.

And if I get burned to see it through,

I’ll always know, at least I flew.

Drew my interpretation of what Freyr and Freyja look like

Drink for the Lonely (2) on Pinecone Pub

A spell on Pinecone Pub, a witch encyclopedia and spell-crafting tool

So I just discovered Pinecone Pub! It’s an app where you can create your own spell! Here’s just a simple drink that has components representing friendship and happiness.

It bothers me that when people make aesthetics for Freyja it usually looks like they choose between her soft and her fierce side and portayed only one. Love or war. As if she isn’t both.

People need to understand that rose petals and thorns don’t grow on different flowers.

Satanic Bad Luck Curse On Object

This is a bit different than what I usually post, just a short Satanic curse you can place on an object. I usually preface this with an invocation to Loki. Just an example of how I like to blend beliefs and practices together to make something unique!

“Demons of misfortune and time of hate make forth this object whoever has it will be cursed! Damastro, aspecti, Lucifer, novas!”

[winterseidr]

Invocation To Loki

Loki and I are pretty tight, so here’s a cool invocation to him!

“Laufey’s son

Trickster of the far north

Delicate spawn of giants

Weedler and coaxer with the secret agenda

Liar who speaks the truth others will not hear

I call you, two-faced one whose soul burns bright

And invite you to be critical of my soul

You love to make us break our vows

When those vows are made heedlessly

You love to catch us in our own hypocrisies

And puncture our bubbles of pride

Nothing is safe from you, no emotion

Is sacrosanct from your prodding

What do we really think, you ask?

What are we not saying? You know

And your shifty eyes catch ours

Your crafty smile slips across your face

And we blush in shame, knowing

That you have read our foolish fumblings

With the truth. For truth is a flame that burns

You tell us. Do not pretend to eat fire

If you are not willing to suffer the consequences

Which is to be cast out by others

Only when we are clear-eyed and humble

Will your gaze toward us be free of slyness

Loki, Spirit of Truth and Lies

Burn us with the measure of our own words.”

[winterseidr]

Invocation To Skadi

My apprentice is a devotee of Skadi, and she found this lovely invocation to Her:

Hail, Huntress of the snow and ice! Hail, wife of Njord the sea-god Who would not compromise with anyone, Nor live on the shore near the sea-birds Rather than your beloved snowy mountains. We who struggle between the tracks Left by Your winter sleigh, We whose bloody marks You track, Skillful in your cold eye, We hail you, Mistress of Survival! Etin-bride of winter, Your cloak Spreads white over the fields, The icy wind Your breath, White wolf in the snow, Lady of the crisp clean starry sky Over the frozen tundra. Teach us of the narrow edge between Living and dying, and of that struggle, And the cold, naked truth that it reveals. Catch us naked in the snow, Lady, We shall bare our throats to your wisdom And count ourselves lucky.

I realized I never posted a pic of my runestones! My dad helped me make these myself and I got the pouch from a cool pagan shop in Yellow Springs, Ohio

[winterseidr]

As a Norse Pagan, being familiar with a map of the Nine Worlds within the branches of Yggdrasil, the World Tree, is essential.

This is a map by Simon E. Davies of Human Odyssey. I chose this version because, in addition to having all of the Nine Worlds represented, it also gives a bit further information about each of the worlds.
