Lokabrenna Tarot - Major Arcana 01 - Vitki (The Magician)

So, ladies and gents, we've got another Sigyn sighting! And it's from 8th century Sweden!

The Ardre image stones are a collection of ten rune and image stones, dated to the 8th to 11th centuries, that were discovered at Ardre Church, in Ardre, Gotland, Sweden.

I found a very interesting article about them. They depict several scenes from Norse myths, and one of them, of course, is Loki's punishment... It seems that there's Skadi putting on the snake (booo!!!), Loki (in female form??? :D ), and Sigyn with her bowl.

So I saw some people once again wondering why Sigyn couldn't just put the snake away... They were saying this, of course, with a touch of desdain, as if they were far superior and much more clever than the goddess herself.

And then I realized something. They think the one they're insulting is Sigyn...

But really?

The one who should be insulted here is Skadi.

Do you really think she would have picked some little worm for Loki's punishment?

She was the Goddess of Winter and of the Hunt.

She KNEW WHAT SHE WAS DOING.

So yeah. The snake was most likely HUGE and TERRIFYING.

Jǫrmungandr, pronounced [ˈjɔrmunˌɡandr̥], meaning "huge monster" also known as the Midgard (World) Serpent (Old Norse: Miðgarðsormr), is a sea serpent, the middle child of the giantess Angrboða and Loki.

According to the Prose Edda, Odin Took Loki's three children by Angrboða—the wolf Fenrir, Hel, and Jörmungandr—and tossed Jörmungandr into the great ocean that encircles Midgard. The serpent grew so large that it was able to surround the earth and grasp its own tail. As a result, it received the name of the Midgard Serpent or World Serpent. When it releases its tail.

To Jörmungandr

Shed Every Skin

That No Longer Fits

Even If They Call You Cold-Blooded

And If They Try To Stop Your Growth

My Dear Unhinge you’re Jaw

And Go For The Throat

Do You Believe You’ll stay Within the Waters

Within the Darkness

So they can see the stars

Oh NO my son

Can we talk about how cruel his punishment is ?? And how he ans Sigyn has suffered??

The gods were too cruel to him
