Matronæ and Dísir: On Ancestresses
Hrafnar: "The alfar (spirits of male relatives) and dísir (female) were honored throughout the north, especially at the feast of Winter Nights held in the autumn, but it was the disir who [were] considered most closely concerned with the fates of their descendents. In Njáls saga... Jarl Hakon made offerings to them. In response, they appeared at the battle with arrows flying out of their fingertips. Some families had a temple, the dísarsalr, in which the clan-disir were regularly worshipped."
MJOLNIR - this is the war hammer of THOR, the god of lightning, thunder, wind, and rain. MJOINIR is the most feared weapon of the Norse gods. It was believed to be able to knock down giants and entire mountains with only one hit. When thrown, THOR's hammer would return to his hand after hitting its target. It is said that MJOINIR was used by THOR to slay JORMUNGANDR during RAGNAROK. Fuckk yes!
