Celebrate Odin, the chief god of the Viking Age!
Odin is associated with healing, wisdom, sorcery, poetry, and runes. He is the Norse god of war and the dead. Odin is also the ruler of Valhalla, the massive and magical hall within Asgard, where honorable warriors would spend their afterlife. He is often depicted as a tall, old man with a long beard. This god only has one eye, as he gave the other in exchange for great wisdom.
If you are making an altar for Odin, keep his symbols in mind, such as spears, wolves, ravens, and the Triskelion. The Triskelion is an image of three interlocking horns, which symbolizes wisdom, poetic inspiration, and the god himself. Colors include greys, deep blues, and black. Burn incense such as nag champa, juniper berry, and other woodland blends. Place your runes, elm or ash leaves, parsley, horehound, and other materials on your altar. Offerings may include a pipe with tobacco, leeks, garlic, asparagus, and hard liquors, such as mead, red wine, and whiskey. Service wise, you can donate to or volunteer at veterans’ organizations in the name of Odin.
Feel free to anoint your Odin 7 day candle with herbs, oils, etc., and place on your altar. Never leave a lit candle unattended. If you are around young children and pets, be attentive and keep out of their reach.
