Since other pagans are making posts about gods that would be good to worship and/or pray to at this time in history, I wanna add my own reminder:
Thor is a patron of the working class
And also one of the main gods turned too in times when people need some extra strength and protection

I’m so happy with the little goats I got to represent Tanngrisnir and Tanngnjóstr on my altar for Thor! They’re just the right size for my altar space and felt like the perfect fit 😊

"Thor alone struck a blow there, swollen with rage,
he seldom sits still when he hears such a thing;
the oaths broke apart, words and promises,
all the solemn pledges which had passed between them."
-The Poetic Edda: Seeress's Prophecy (Trans. Carolyne Larrington)
Thor, Blessing of the Storm
Thor, son of thunder, hammer in hand, stride beneath red skies and teach me strength that holds, not conquers, that stands when the ground trembles and clears the air with the fire of courage.
Mjölnir, bringer of storms and clarity, bless my labor, my heart, my hands— let effort be sacred, persistence a prayer, let truth be struck free, and power return to rest until your laughter shakes the sky again.
Thor 🤝 Jesus
-Hammer.
-Being historically beloved by the "common man"/working class.
-Having to die for apocalyptic/world-ending reasons in many stories.
-Being weaponized by white supremacists to make the world a worse place.

Thor alone was in the mood to fight; he does not take it lightly when he hears of such things: broken promises, broken oaths and vows, such false speech as even the gods had uttered.
what does a heathen pray for?

I honestly hate how much pop culture, especially the influence of the mcu and serial sex pest Neil Gaimen, has infantaized depictions of Thor. Most people just simplify him to be big guy who fights monster, and there's so much more to him that.
He's the protector of humanity. Of all the gods I've worked with he's been one of the ones with the most overwhelming presences, but in a way that's almost comforting, in the same way that seeing someone stand up to your abuser can be comforting. I've worked for him a lot for spiritual warfare/protection, and idk how to describe it, he just always feels both powerful and benevolent than any pop culture depiction has shown him as. I've also called on him several times when opposing fascists and injustice, which is an aspect of him that I feel never gets touched on.
Even just from a narrative perspective people overlook the power behind the idea of a god who loves humanity in a way that isn't soft or vauge or parental, but in the sense of being willing to fight for our rights and inspire others to do the same.
