Triumph of the unconscious

Hamingja is the magic you are born with, a finite amount bestowed upon you at birth by the Norns. Everyone is gifted different amounts. Some people run through theirs in just a few years while others have it last their whole lifetime. Theres no way to know how much you were born with or how much you have left. But once you become aware of it and learn to control its use then you can more mindfully go through your stores. Once it's gone, it's gone for good.

Megin, on the other hand, is earned magic. It almost mimics reputation and is gained by being true to your word, upholding oathes taken, and doing favors for spirits/gods/wights/etc. If you wish to work with spirits and wights, then building up megin is very important as you need more megin in order to work with more powerful wights. Megin, from my own understanding, is basically the equivalent of reputation in the spirit realm. The more you can prove yourself reliable the more likely these spirit entities will be willing to work with you.

If you want to submit a request for a prayer, poem, or song to be written to you privately or to be posted on this blog or my Patreon for a God, Ancestor, or spirit, sign up for the Ansuz and above level here on my Patreon. This was requested by Maleck Odinsson for Allmother Frigga. Holy One Who loves Her People Who loves Her Children Born from Her or Another Hail to You! Secret…

Okay, meet Gos (short for Sarasragos or Sragos). He was one of my most drawn characters from 2014-2016. He was part of a story that I stopped liking, except for him and his lore and his witch friend Madame Ves.
