(Nor) se + jΓΆ (kull) (old norse word for icicle or glacier) + bers (er) ker + sei (Γ°r) (old norse word for magic)
A culture and aesthetic based neoumbrella related to old nordic culture and its aesthetic . This can be due to any reason , as long as it holds respect to the culture , religion , and such else related to viking age Scandinavia . Anything nordic related is related to this label . Most commonly , this term is associated with harsh winter, barbarians, magic, and the sort that is related to the latter of those things.
It can also relate to terms that are associated with viking age scandinavia and nordic culture, such as shield, axe , arm band, and runestone presentation terms, Ergi/Argr, special interests and hyperfixations in anything of the such, and many more.
Concepts within the umbrella include, but are not limited to :
Mythical creatures of Norse folklore (like wyrms , draugr , and jΗ«tunn + more)
The usage of runes, particularly younger futhark .
Norse paganism and its practices + vΗ«lvas and seiΓ°maΓ°rs
The North, Scandinavia, the ocean, icy mountains, etc.
Media related to/inspired by Norse culture (God of War, Assassins Creed: Valhalla, How to Train Your Dragon, Vinland Saga, Magnus Chase, and many more!)
Fashion trends within Norse culture
Folk music inspired by Norse poetry and culture (artists include Heilung, Wardruna, Kaunan, Danheim, etc.)
Animals associated with the norse (wolves, ravens, boars, bears, snakes etc.)
Barbaric vikings (berserkers) , raiding , things of that sort.
Notes : i made this primarily due to my special interest in norse culture and history, I feel like it is deeply intertwined with my identity due to that, partially due to my paganism but also just my love for the culture and its customs. I also love historical accuracy when it comes to the norse, so every term apart of this will be in Old Norse or a mix of Old Norse and English in some manner .
