In Chapter 11 of the Prose Edda, Gylfaginning, a Völva describes Sól and her origins (Vikings Valhalla, 2023). The Völva says that Sól was the mortal daughter of a man named Mundilfari (Vikings Valhalla, 2023). Like her brother Máni, she was named after a celestial creation due to her outstanding beauty (Vikings Valhalla, 2023). She was named after the sun while her brother was named after the moon. However, this action by Mundilfari was perceived as arrogance by the Aesir, and as such they brought Sól and Máni to the heavens and forced them to "count the years for men" (Vikings Valhalla, 2023). Sól is described as being both the literal embodiment of the sun as well as a goddess who oversees the sun (Ýdalir).
Both Sól and Máni are said to drive horse-drawn chariots across the sky, representing the perceived movement of the sun and moon (Norse Mythology for Smart People). The horses who pull Sól's chariot are named Árvakr ("Early Riser") and Alsviðr ("Swift") (Norse Mythology for Smart People). Chasing after Sól and Máni are two ferocious wolves, Sköll ("Mockery") and Hati Hróðvitnisson ("Hate"), who wish to swallow the sun and moon, similar to the myth of Fenrir (Britannica Kids; Norse Mythology for Smart People).
It is said that during Ragnarök, both wolves will finally catch up to the pair and swallow them whole, fulfilling their plan (Ýdalir). However, after this takes place, Sól will execute one final action: birthing a nearly identical daughter who is to replace her as the new sun goddess (Ýdalir). The name of this daughter is widely contested. Some sources claim that her name is simply Sól, just like her mother, while others say that her name is Álfröðull, Sunna, or something else entirely (Ýdalir; Vikingr, 2024). Furthermore, it is uncertain whether this daughter figure is an independent being of Sól or instead a direct reincarnation of her. Regardless, Norse myths state that this new goddess will be one of the very few deities to survive the events of Ragnarök (Ýdalir; Viking Valhalla, 2023). Together with the other remaining deities, she will help build a new world of light and hope (Ýdalir; Viking Valhalla, 2023).
Other names:
The following are alternative names that have been used to refer to Lady Sól throughout history.
I have been a very devoted follower of Lady Sól for years. I first learned of her back in 2021 when I saw a TikTok on my feed saying "this video is a sign that Sól wants to connect with you". Do I believe that video was a literal sign from Lady Sól? No, not really, and admitting that I found out about her through a TikTok is kinda embarrassing to me. However, it's undeniable that the TikTok directed me towards her, and I am very grateful for that.
I have always felt a very strong connection to her, which I find funny considering I used to totally be a moon fan when I was younger. I loved the darker, edgier side of things and honestly kind of bristled when it came to bright, optimistic icons like the sun. However, learning of Lady Sól and devoting myself to her truly marked a significant change in my life. I was undergoing a lot of hardship and pain, especially in 2021, and I felt that Lady Sól relieved my sorrow on multiple occasions, guiding me towards a brighter future. She aided me in becoming a better, stronger person, someone who can always maintain hope and optimism.
Although I regard the other Norse deities with respect and worship a handful of them, Lady Sól has always been my patroness.
My personal experience:
I have found Lady Sól to be an incredibly loving, warm, and motherly deity. In my experience, she has the capability of being both kind and soft as well as fierce and bold. When I think of her I always think of the phrase "the sun giveth and taketh". She is very sweet but will not hesitate to protect herself and those she loves.
I have also found Lady Sól to be quite drawn towards the "tough love" approach. She is not harsh, but she is honest and forward. If she believes you have the strength to persevere then she will push you to overcome any obstacles you face. When blindsided by a tragedy, it may feel like the end of the world for you, but Lady Sól will step in and essentially say, "hey, you're stronger than this hurdle. This is not the end. There is a bright future ahead and everything will be okay. Don't let this defeat you." As I mentioned before, I perceive her to be very motherly, so expect her to keep a watchful eye over you and persuade you to go down paths that she believes are in your best interest (as well as dissuade you from going down paths that are not in your best interest).
Associations:
The following are associations I personally attribute to Lady Sól.
Warm colors (red, yellow, orange)
Birds
Butterflies
Fire
Summer
Citrine
Sunstone
Stars
Sunflowers
The Sun tarot card
Sowilo rune (ᛋ)
Qualities:
The following are qualities and characteristics I personally attribute to Lady Sól. I believe these themes resonate the most with her and as such give her expertise in strengthening these qualities among her followers.
Hope
Optimism
Happiness
Resilience
Courage
Clarity
Strength
Passion
Conclusion:
I hope this helps people learn a bit more about this relatively unknown deity! There is unfortunately not a lot of recorded information regarding Lady Sól so she has often been overshadowed by other deities within the Norse pantheon. She is wonderful, however, and deserves far more recognition!

A clause in a spell is something where you say "if x happens then do y". For example, a glamour spell might benefit from a clause saying "if someone gives me negative energy, charge off of it to strengthen the spell". In that particular case, it transfers negative energy into energy to do your spell rather than it hurting you.
But, these tend to be hard to do. The concept itself is quite easy, but it succeeding is what's hard, so be warned that it might take a lot of practice to get it to work.
Step 1: basically you have to be setting up another spell, preferably one that you already think it gonna work. Self love spells, glamour spells, and protection spells will probably work best. Do that spell in it's entirety except the final or finishing steps (such as releasing the spell or sealing the spell jar)
Step 2: What do you want the clause to be? Remember that whatever clause you do is not an excuse to go into those bad situations, such as self bullying or danger. This is only to help mitigate the effects. Come up with your clause and write it down
Step 3: Take any physical objects from the spell (or picture the spell if it has no physical objects) and imagine the x part of the clause happening. Then imagine as it triggers the y thing to happen. Using my example at the beginning, "if someone gives me negative energy, charge off of it to strengthen the spell". So I would imagine someone pointing out a "flaw" or in general being rude and the object in the spell glowing brighter (to represent charging).
That's really it, like I said it's a quite simple thing, it's just hard to get it to succeed.
Credit me if you repost this or use something similar in a spell, thank you! As always, send in an ask if you want me to talk about something or if you have questions

shaking myself (very gently) . being in pain takes a lot of energy!!!!!! being in pain is exhausting!!!!!!! you are not lazy or weak because you need to spend so much time resting, this is your body coping with how much pain you’re in literally 24/7!!!!!!!!!
Even the most common things can be spells or rituals.
Baking chocolate chip cookies? Spell for good fortune, love, and joy.
Brewing a pot of tea? Potion of warmth and comfort, plus infinite possibilities for intent and purpose.
Enjoying a cool breeze? Grounding and cleansing ritual.
Washing your dishes? Cleansing and protection for future meals and those who will eating those meals.
You don’t have to go out of your way to cast spells or create magic rituals. Think about what you do in a day: What mundane task could you turn into a spell?
via NYPost: Immigration and Customs Enforcement is preparing to launch a “big f–king operation” across sanctuary cities — including Chicago and New York — immediately after President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration, multiple sources told The Post.
Starting Jan. 21, multi-day “ground operations” will be launched across cities that have served as safe havens for migrants because the local authorities do not cooperate with the federal government when it comes to immigration issues, sources said.

On a small square of red fabric, combine dried white rose petals, white dog fur, a handful of gravel, and a gold coin. Tie the ingredients into a bundle, tie securely to your everyday bag. New opportunities for learning and adventure will come find you until the satchel is removed or falls off.
teaching yourself how to deal with mildly annoying inconveniences is imo an essential part of treating the disabled people around you with compassion and no i'm not kidding
sometimes you have to share a public space with someone who has loud verbal tics. sometimes a chronically ill friend will have to cancel plans because of a flare up even if you were really looking forward to hanging out with them. sometimes an autistic person will talk over you or interrupt you because they missed a particular cue. sometimes people who struggle to take care of themselves will smell bad. sometimes people with intellectual disabilities will need you to give them more detailed, patient instructions, even if it seems simple to you. sometimes you will need to give up your seat on the bus for a physically disabled person even if you don't want to move.
accommodating disabled people is not always easy or comfortable; being an ally means doing it anyway.
