  12. It's the Day of Hermes aka Mercurius Day aka #Wodensday! 🐺🐺

    "Another great abode is there, which is named Valaskjálf. Odin possesses that dwelling. The gods made it and thatched it with sheer silver, and in this hall is the Hliðskjálf, the high seat so called. Whenever Allfather sits in that seat, he surveys all lands."
    Prose Edda, Gylfaginning

    🏛 Odin on his throne Hlidskjalf from Lerje, #Denmark, dated 900 CE

  16. Good morning friends, welcome to the late #November #Sunday. It’s cold here and the sky is grey here today, but that is what I want from this time of year.
    Sunday gets its name from the goddess #Sigel , the #sun #goddess#Sunnandæg

    Below is my interpretation of the goddess Sigel (or #Sunna or #Sól ) drawn in the early #Medieval style.
