Masterpost: Frīg's Handmaidens Project

Who are the Handmaidens?

In the Prose Edda, twelve Goddesses are listed after Frigga as Ásynjur: Fulla, Gefjon, Hlín, Syn, Eir, Sága, Gná, Vár or Vór, Snotra, Vör, Lofn and Sjöfn. Modern Heathens sometimes refer to Them as Frigga's Handmaidens. (This is a piece of shared gnosis, not an historically attested term.) For many of the Twelve, this is all that survives in the way of attestations.

What is the Project?

Gradually over several years, and more intentionally recently, I have been building a devotional cultus around these Goddesses. As part of that, I've been putting together primers on each of the Twelve on my longform blog -- detailing Their surviving attestations, Old English God-names and epithets for Them, my own personal experiences and upg, a prayer, and devotional icon art -- as well as essays and modern myths exploring other aspects of Them and my cultus to Them.

Although I use Old English names for Them and honour Them in a syncretic heathen practice drawing on influences from across the British and Irish Isles, I hope these may be useful and/or interesting for practitioners working in a Norse, Continental, or other context. Or for anyone worshipping and building cultus to lesser-known and lesser-attested Gods!

I will update this post periodically, but if you like you can subscribe to my longform Wordpress blog for updates when I post.

A new fursona +some manatee studies. . . (It's not that much different than the old fursona.) Manatees have skyrocketed to the top of my favorite animal list recently, there's something about their ability to to circumnavigate the endless stream of Horrors that mankind throws at them while maintaining impeccably chill vibes. . . Also they are just so. . . Scrunkly. . .

I'm officially joining Art Fight for the first time (publicly. . . I joined sneakily one year at the last minute but it wasn't very productive). I didn't particularly want anything in return (because I've been very character shy as of late), but if I HAVE to request something, you can draw Frig here or my dearly departed cat.

SO YEAH, HERE'S MY ARTFIGHT PROFILE. . . Hoping I won't lose steam too quickly, but no promises.

Why do I keep seeing the same posts over and over when I’m following 100+ tags?? And why are my only followers bots?👎😾

Spinning your threads,

you wrap around me,

embracing and enshrouding me in the warmth of a Mother’s arms.

O’ Queen of Osgeard,

you spin the wool of my heart,

shaping it and guiding it to goodness,

and weave the tapestry of my Wyrd.

You call to me,

a Mother’s call to her child,

beckoning them to safety.

I fall into your arms,

held in warmth and home,

and finally, I feel whole.

hi it’s me ily

E târziu....e frig.

E frig și afară și în suflet.

E târziu și acum și peste timp va fi târziu.

E frig în lume pentru inimile bune și e târziu să revină la vremea când nu erau rănite.

E târziu și acum pentru noi, pentru tine....

E frig afară și e târziu pe drumul pe care odată era devreme .

Ai venit târziu și poate va fi prea târziu și mâine.

E frig singură....și totuși prea târziu sa fiu altfel.

Asa că e târziu pentru tine, pentru mine....pentru vreun noi vreodată.

Quiet devotion to Frīg and the Twelve this evening. Just lit candles, covered my head, said a few words, sat in that sacred space and. Felt the gentlest, most comforting and profound presence. Like being held in the most loving and compassionate embrace.

Hail to the All-Mother, and Hail to the Twelve divine Sisters.

Freyja (76) is a daughter of Saturn and a Goddess of love and beauty. She is a dark goddess, a sorceress as a matter of fact. 😁

Some of Saturns other kids are Jupiter, Pluto (134340), Vesta (4), Ceres (1), Juno (3).

Frigga is the Greek equivalent of the Roman Freyja.
