I inherited one from my best friend who recently passed away, aged just 37. It gives me great strength.
We spoke about the old ways/heathenry at length before he died. It's something he believed in and something I'd developed a keen interest in after experiencing something I can only describe as spiritual, while being under a freezing cold waterfall in North Wales for a large amount of time.
I feel strongly that our spirituality should be closely linked to nature & will continue on this journey.
I wear my mjolnir like i wear my tats. For me. Not for others. Greez from germany.
I have Swedish ancestry, and even though I grew up in the Catholic church as a child, I always felt a pull towards norse mythology. The music, the culture, the beliefs all seemed so beautiful, and I never truly knew why I felt more connected to those things than I did with what I grew up in. And now I know. I didn't find out until recently that I had Scandinavian roots. So when I found out, it all came together like a missing puzzle had finally been found. I am incredibly joyful and absolutely in love with that part of myself. I have so much pride! 🇸🇪
When I learned norce paganism was probably one of the oldest unchanged religions from the proto indo-europeans it's like a whole ancient world opened up, and I've never felt so .... well, close to the answers I was looking for
I think im the guy you spoke to in the bar lol that's exactly why i wear mine, my heritage 50 percent scandinavian mostly from Norway. I feel a connection with the music as well.
lol, you are totally the reason this video got made.
are you on fb? I'm Raido Ken Tiwaz on fb.
@@therideinmidgard I'm not the guy you spoke to at the bar but yeah my Name on Facebook is BeardedGunny Ryan
@@beardedgunny372 lol ok
I'm of Germanic ancestry and Irish ancestry, and I wear the Mjornir necklace, for my culture and religious reasons.
Blessed Be from down under Australia 🌛🌟🌜🙏❤💛💚💙💜🌺🌻🦋 i were the Mjollnir for protection and strength 🙏
Hail Brother Norse Heathen it’s about Ancestors past present and future and way of life
That outtro music though... 👌
One of the things I have reflected greatly on, is what Mjolnir could mean more symbolically.
Thor is the god of strength, protection, though fertility/blessing. But while yes a god of thunder/storms, and a slayer of giants. There is also something more Mjolnir might mean to us.
Among the Norse Pagan traditions is the different parts of self or being. Among these is Hamr, which means "shape" or "form". I personally don't think that Mjolnir or Hammer and Hamr are simply coincidences in word similarities. If we think of a blacksmith working at the forge, tempering and "shaping to form" with his hammer? Suddenly the revelation is made clear. Mjolnir isn't just an emblem, or simply a symbol but a reminder. Through Hugr thought, Minni memory, we can empower ourselves to forge Hamr shape ourselves and our reality. This is to me the real meaning esoterically speaking to forge our Wyrd or fate in our words and actions. Galdr the practice of spell or incantation is tied to Ond or "breath of life".
Really fascinating when you contemplate the deeper meanings.
That's an interesting take on the meaning of Thor's hammer.
Is this your own theory or have you come across this idea anywhere else? Id like to make more content on Thor's hammer and so I could potentially mention this as possible meaning of the symbol. Of course I'd give you full credit for it.
@@therideinmidgard Mainly a mix, I take time to understand Asatru, the Eddas, and cross reference with videos, articles, and so on.
The parts of Norse Spiritual Self was found on Arith Harger's youtube channel. He really breaks down the terms and meanings. Plus tells how they tie to Galdr, and Seidr practices.
I consider myself a Wanderer/Traditionalist/Restorationist using both scholarly research with well what pulls me calling wise. I just want to practice right, but not utilizing too much modern Wicca etc. Though sorting the info is tricky.
This is the first video I saw of you and when you started speaking I was like “that is the manliest man I’ve ever seen”. Great video keep it up
I'm the manliest man, really? Well thank you I'm going to take that compliment.
@@therideinmidgard you sure sound like a manly man
I use the hammer to swear allegiance to our ancestors, to swear allegiance to the old ways, to swear allegiance to each brother and grandfather who is treading this earth today, for those who are there and to remember those who left, also as a protection and to feel connected to thor, and be loyal to myself. I also take it as a great symbol as the blacksmiths hit the iron on the anvil to shape a piece like a sword or an ax or some other object. I also take it in my process as my life is being transmuted every day.
"swear allegiance"
So, you're American.
I wear it as a symbol of my belief in the gods, and also as way so others of the same faith can recognize me as one of them. It’s always nice coming across a fellow norse pagan every now and then.
Enjoyed the video, Skal
Just discovered your channel. Good stuff! Subbed!
Love the content
For me, when you believe in something that makes you stronger, in any way, it is worth it. When I wear a Thor's hammer, I feel ok +1. Perhaps that is just me, but it feels like an armour against anything, to some extent
The intro and outro are great
I do it for spiritual reasons, and religous identity. Hi from America
I dreamt of thors hammer years ago and never forgot
I wear the Thor's hammer for my Norse & Germanic ancestry and my heathen path
First time watching the channel, and I feel a little bamboozeled that the intro and outro was longer than the actual video. I think I like Ocean Keltois video a bit better
Yeah that's cool how ocean keltoi plagiarized my content for his own
channel, cool I could provide him with content so he can get views on his channel.
Im georgian but i wear mjolnir because i like it and i feel power
Keep going
I wear mine for cultural and spiritual reasons...I am of Norwegian and German desent and I feel the Gods are still here and with us, it symbolizes my devotion to them and a following Norse traditions to the best I can.
Mjolnir reminds me to stay in honor at all times. The hammer does literally grow heavy when I don't.
I was going throw protection symbols and I had no idea what it represents and then I came across a mjolnir and I had a feeling like I had to have this Pacific one I have on now and then i read what is was about and represent
That you for the video
What does it mean to me?
A few years ago I found out much of my family on my father's side are Finnish.
I'm adopted, so it took some time to find this out.
While looking at the culture I was surprised to find people that follow the Norse path of beliefs.
I've never felt a pull toward any belief system until then.
That's when I began wearing my Mjolnir.
So the the old Norse ways are popular in Finland are they? Well Finland is in Scandinavia so makes sense, although not really Norse. I also wonder how popular the native Finish myths are in Finland and whether people wear Ukkos hammer.
@@therideinmidgard Oh, wow. No. I didn't mean to misrepresent. I've no idea how wide spread old Nordic beliefs are there.
I meant that in my research I found people that do. It was very surprising to me. So, that caused me to begin research into Norse pagan beliefs.
I've only ever been exposed to Christianity, and I never really took to it. I'm not sure why.
I found out my biological father practiced Nordic beliefs, but I don't know to what extent.
He passed away before I could inquire.
The aspects of Norse pagan that interest me are the Land Spirits and Vanir.
@@keithdrummond1003 I also have never been drawn to Christianity and I imagine it is because it is not connected to my ancestry and is actually not even a European religion. How can I connect to something I am not apart of? I was drawn to Norse mythology from as a teen ager and I feel connected to it.
@@therideinmidgard That's amazing. I'm over 50 now and just starting my journey.
Looking forward to seeing more from you. Take care.
@@keithdrummond1003 thanks, there will be tons more content coming. This channel is new and I'm still getting it up and running.
It's part of my ancestry and A power symbol. It connects me to my ancestors.
For me it is a religious symbol, Thor is a protector of the working man and the defender of Asgard. I feel a pull to Thor.
Because we can
if i wore jewelry with a rune on it or jörmungandr on it would that be seen as disrespectful? i am very interested in norse mythology and have learned about it in the past weeks and feel a connection to it and i was wondering if it might be seen as disrespectful to wear that. i am american buti have swedish roots and have no foul intention. though im not religious so i just dont want to disrespect anyone or make anyone upset. ( sorry if this didnt make sense )
Hi, many people wear jewellry with runes and tattoos of runes and I haven't ever heard of this being disrespectful. Some understanding of the meaning of the runes would show respect and may be wise as they are considered to have effects on people, and have been used in charms and curses.
I don't think it's disrespectful to wear jewellery with jormungandr, however maybe worth considering what jormungandr is and why you want to adorn yourself with this creature. Some people in heathenry do not invoke the enemies of the gods and would not wear jewellery with Loki or Fenrir, but then others do so. My opinion is to consider what the energy is of the spirit that we are adorning ourselves with and would we want to invoke that energy. I guess you have your reasons for wanting to wear jewellery with jormungandr.
@@therideinmidgard thank you. i will keep learning about runes and may end up getting one as a necklace after finding which one serves my purpose. much thanks
I wear Donars hammer because half my family comes from germany. Bructeli tribe, Franks and more. They ran away to the USA during WW2. They were hebrew sympasizers and were going to be executed by nazis. Then here in the USA families mixed and returned to germany and now here i am.
What's the music? You should credit it
Thors hammer, its open source music, yeah I probably should credit it. I'll see if I can find the info on it...
I am a Hindu and I wear Mjolnir as a representation of strength and return to spiritual religions, I feel solidarity with you all
I am Saxon (heritage) and Irish(Celtic) born and raised Canadian 🇨🇦… grew up indoctrinated to Christian culture, I now follow my ancestrial heritage (Germanic )… however also am drawn to Rudra Šiva, and the Vedic Pantheon … Trimurti … many correlations with Thor & Indra , Parvati and Saraswati (Freyja & Frig) Dhumavati /Mata Kali(Hel) ! Jormangandr & Nagas(Adi Shesha) etc!
🕉️🙏🇨🇦🧙♂️🔱🐲🐉🪬❄️
I think they are closer in relation to each other than the “experts” would like to admit!
The radical metal types actually hurts the true meaning of mjoinir.
I wear a mjoinir around my neck to 'remind' me that there is more out there than we know AND we have a divine spirit (our life force). Mjoinir is a symbol of that life force.
But, I also believe in the Father, Mother, and the Christo.
I DO NOT believe in the Roman Catholic Church and its dogma. I believe the Bible has been changed so many times. I DO NOT worship Yahweh ( the devil).
Polytheism answers alot of questions. If you go back far enough, the Norse believed in one creator (male and female) of all things and a multitude of demigods/angels (created by the creator). That is my belief.
I actually believe in reincarnation.
So.. what does that make me?
I think you are on the right path … same path most of us, who have seen through their lies& can think for themselves have chosen! I choose to venerate and walk with my ancestors and Gods … they can bow 🙇♂️ and Prey all they want and give their energies away to the YHWH vampiric entity! I think those not in alignment with nature(Mother Earth &Father Sky) will be dragged asunder ! Alas the “Great Reset”, is at hand as they have been touting from The “elite parasites”! Stay frosty ❄️
Cheers 🙏🧙♂️🇨🇦🔱🐲🐉🪬🕉️🖖
I wear Mjolnir because I'm Norse on both sides of my family and I don't hold their Christian god. Thor represents strength and protection. All the things I wish to embody in order to start my family! Hail Thor!
Thor is a dead god disgraced by St Boniface. We wear Thor's hammer as a symbol of Christ's overpowering of the old gods.
Then wear a cross.
@@therealivydawgor a hammer. Same meaning.
Thor(torus field/electrical field) is the life force … and if you believe it is dead then that makes you a brain dead zombie! 🧟♂️ fact is most “saints “ were Pagan gods and hero archetypes, rebranded by the church to fit their narrative! So you’re in fact Wrong!
@@trampusbowmaster6420 all the saints are dead tho. I'm not sure how you think that comment helps you. I am curious tho, if you could give a couple examples of saints who were pagan gods.
christ been nailed to the cross and Thor have a hammer...
the music sucks
And yet other people have commented that they like it.
@@therideinmidgard I guess I'm just old. But I like your channel.
@@Bladetechusa ok thanks I appreciate that.
I wear mine like it's a cross basically I wear it for religious reasons.
