Aesir gods


Todays is the second part about Norse dynasties of gods. Previous post was about Vanir gods, now we talk about Æsir gods.

Æsir is a principal pantheon which includes: Odin, Frigg, Thor, Baldr and Tyr.
This was a gods dynasty of among the benevolent gods of politics and military activities. Their habitat was placed on the top of a big tree and it was a one of the nine worlds caled Asgard.



The Æsir most likely symbolized the violent aspects of nature, in contrast with the Vanir.
The Aesir have always been a powerful tribe that values strength above all else, always remaining unchallenged until they met their match against the Vanir.
All Aesir seen so far can use elemental power to enhance their physical abilities and weaponry.  

See you soon, Bye!



Vanir gods


Hi, Guys! In this and next post I tell you a little bit about Norse Mythology.

In Norse there were two dynasty of gods: Æsir and Vanir. The older one is Vanir, which was ruling the world till the time a second dynasty overthrow them. These two pantheons wage war against each other, which results in a unified pantheon.
And this post is going to be about the Vanir, hope you like it.

Vanir were gods associated with fertility, wisdom, and the ability to see the future and are the namesake of the location Vanaheimr. After the Æsir–Vanir War, the Vanir became a subgroup of the Æsir. Subsequently, members of the Vanir are sometimes also referred to as members of the Æsir. The best konown Vanir gods are Freyja, Freyr and Njoror. 


This is Vanaheimr, house of Vanirs gods.
That's all, see you son!

Norse Worlds (pt.2)


Hi, 
This post is a continuation of the previous post about Nors's worlds, hope you enjoy it.

Junatheim
As the name implies, the homeland of the giants. Also known as Udgard.



Alfheim
As the name suggests, the world inhabited by the elves, a class of demigod-like.



Vanaheim
Land of sorcery and magic.The World situated around the world-tree Yggdrasil. It’s the home of the Vanir tribe of deities, who tend to be somewhat more associated with fertility and what we today would call nature.



Muspelheim
World of the fire and smoke. Home of the fire giants



Helheim
Also called 'Hel'. The underworld where many of the dead dwell. It’s presided over by a fearsome goddess whose name is also Hel


That's all. See you soon!

Norse Worlds (pt.1)


In the Norse mythology exist nine worlds and today I'll present you them. Every single one is different and made for different creatures.

First one: Asgard
The home and fortress of the Aesir, one of the two tribes of gods. Asgard is located in the sky and is connected to Midgard, by the rainbow bridge Bifrost.



Midgard
'Home of Humanity'. It’s the inhabited world and roughly corresponds to civilization. It’s the only world that’s primarily located in the visible world.



Niflheim
The homeland of primordial darkness, cold, mist, and ice.



Svartalfeim
The home of the dwarves. The dwarves are master smiths and craftsmen who live beneath the ground. So Svartalfheim was thought of as a labyrinthine, subterranean complex of mines and forges.



If you like that post, go to the second part, where you can find out about the rest five worlds.


Bye!
