I made some prayer bead bracelets so that i can give regular prayers as offerings to the gods (here's a tutorial on how to make them).

I wanted to do separate ones for the gods i work with, so i made one for Odin and one for Freyr (but i'm still working on Freyr's prayer). For Odin, i looked for pearls that kind of look like eyes (and for Freyr i found some that look like flowers).

Prayer for Odin:

I wanted to keep the prayer short so i could easily remember it, so i wrote 9 short verses, one verse for each bead of the bracelet:

"Odin,

Allfather,

I honour you, Wanderer, and your company on all my journeys,

I honour you, Knowing-One, and your wisdom,

I honour you, Hanged God, and your self-sacrifices,

I honour you, One-Eyed, and your gifts to humankind,

I honour you, Sorcerer, and your powers,

I honour you, Raven God, and your winged companions,

I honour you, Commander, and your battles,

I honour you, Wise One, and your words,

- water (drinkable, preferably)

- make a playlist of at least 3 songs (you can add more later if you’d like)

- talk to them, just say hi, tell them what’s going on in your life

- if you’re physically able, dance or exercise a bit!!

- read or re-read stories about them if they’re a deity

- recall fond memories you’ve had together, tell them why these memories are fond

- Buy or pick a flower/plant, put it on your offering space

God of ecstasy and a good time! 🍷 🍇 🌈

Girl Odin. Odin is genderfluid, and there's at least one image of Odin that shows traditionally feminine clothes.

Drag Thor, because of that one story where Thor crossdresses to steal back his hammer, and looks amazing in a Bridal Gown.

Tomboy Pansexual Freya. She's a goddess of War, and has reportedly slept with every god in Asgard (no distinction of gender made)

Femboy Freyr. Freyr's priests were Ergi, which is to say queer, gender non-conforming. And Freyr is one of the few non-war gods, but is a god of love and sex.

"Bear" Furry Fenrir. He's a wolf, so definitely furry and hairy. I also ship him with Tyr, with whom he had a close friendship, and trusted completely, until he betrayed him under pressure from the other gods.

Enby Loki. The biggest genderqueer icon of Norse Mythology.

Transmasc Njord. While he is clearly and inequivocally a man, he often plays a more "feminine" role. And before he became Njord, Nerthus (sorry for deadnaming there) was goddess of the seas and fishing.

Transfem Skadi. She is clearly a woman, but is expected to play traditionally masculine roles in the stories (like hunting, avenging her father, choosing a mate).
