Welcome to the start of Season 3 - where once more I am returning after an unintended hiatus, but this time it's not just been my energy directed outwards that caused this delay - but also that I've been pulled to a new path, that I'm now starting to walk upon. So these first three episodes while I find my feet will be focused on telling the story of how I came across this new path, the experiences that have drawn me there.

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.

In this episode we leave behind the Norse Myths and Legends and instead step into the realm of Icelandic Folk Tales as we recount the story of Herding Mice, where Halla gets even with a very cheap, mean and dishonest merchant as he cheated a farmer out of goods one time too many. For me this story speaks a lot of how Seidhr magic is still a part of Icelandic Folk legend - even if it isn't called such, as well as giving a reminder to treat those who depend on you or who are your trading partners with fairness less you face a higher penalty than you would otherwise like.

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.

One of my biggest bug bears is how Loki is commonly seen as just the Viking Devil, and how much historical context has been lost with the way Christianity works in terms of its conversion practices of overruling all other Gods and borrowing aspects of the religion it's replacing, and villainising other aspects. The most obvious one as an eclectic pagan that leans to the Norse Pagan Path being Loki. So as well as sharing the story of one of Loki's mischiefs with the Golden apple of Idunn this episode I get that bug bear off my chest, into the open and have a bit of a rant about it. I however will not apologise for this.

So if that ramble of information given interests you, I do hope the episode will be of joy. I'm a bit bunged up still from my very blocked up nose - but I've finally had my first negative Covid test so at least I'm no longer infectious! Also it was my birthday on Saturday, so was a bit delayed actually recording the episode!

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

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 through the deities, and give ideas on how you can give worship to them! Finally my big achievement this week is I built a cairn!!

I hope your Ostara was truly blessed and that you've had a fabulous fortnight! Please remember if you enjoy this podcast please leave a review on your podcast service!
