I attempt at least to create a new myth, a new aspect of lore - in light of the lunar eclipse we all experienced to a point. So this is the telling - at least based on my researching and imagination as to how Loki saved the moon. This is not an actually known of Norse Myth, this is very much a writing from my own head. But regardless I hope you enjoy, and I apologise for the lateness of it's release. Please remember if you enjoy this podcast please leave a review on your podcast service!

I trust you all have a blessed Beltane and find the energy and information you need to grow and thrive, and keep your momentum going to make the changes you feel are needed to live your best lives! In this episode we're talking about Heimdall, the watcher of Asgard, we are talking about the importance of hospitality in Norse times linked to Havamal verse 2, and I get a LOT off my chest with how Loki is percieved as well as a general ramble about politeness towards deities you don't work with. It's chaotic but that's life right, especially when my life is generally quite chaotic! If you've enjo ..read more

I'm feeling a lot better (thankfully) - and in this episode we share the story of Heimdall in Midgard, the origin of the Thrall, Karl and Jarl system in Norse times - at least the myth of how it came to be. Importantly though it also reveals some of the views on Hospitality that were given, and gives us an insight into the oft enigmatic watchman of the Bifrost.

I have a horrible head cold so my apologies for the delay releasing this story episode, however in this weeks episode we're going to be sharing the tale of Skrymsli and the Peasants Child - a pleasant story for me, if only due to it being a rare myth that survived where Loki isn't the bad guy (duh). I think I managed to get through the whole recording without coughing, and I am on the road to mending! Hopefully this stinking headcold will disappear soon Please remember if you enjoy this podcast please leave a review on your podcast service!

Well hasn't this week been chaotic! I was hoping to have more to talk about this episode but alas didn't quite happen, sometimes life changes you know? I think that's what Loki has been telling me for so long, and I've finally learnt the lesson! However this week I've finally got myself to the point where I know exactly how I want to set up this podcast! We shared the legend of how Flax came to be, we shared the very first verse of the Havamal, and I talked about my own perspective on the verse, we also talked about Odin as the start of a series in the podcast where every fortnight I'll go thr ..read more

A happy beltane to all who celebrate! We're talking about the tale of Geirrod and Agnar, a cautionary tale of treachery and the outcomes of that, we discuss a bit about the idea of "The Hidden Queer" within the Craft, and finally we discuss about Wunjo - the rune related to Joy.  If you enjoy this podcast please feel free to leave a review with your podcast provider if it's allowed!

In this episode we talk about Bragi - a controversial figure who some people disagree if he's even a God, but more importantly we talk about dismantling Ableism in the craft. This is something I'm noticing a lot with how people preach paganism and how one should follow the path - whether that's from the need for a clan, or from demanding large rituals on the sabbats. There are many ways we can dismantle ableism, I share how I'm doing it, but if you have any ideas then I'd love to hear them! Finally we talk about Gebo, the gift signifying Rune! I've been busy in my garden, and it's looking real ..read more

We also discuss about ways the deities you work with may communicate with you, including signs from my own experience that they are reaching out to work with you. Finally we talk about Kenaz - the Creative Torch, and the meanings tied to that.  If you want to read the shownotes you can find them at https://deviateddroid.com ..read more
