Die Hohe Rhön bleibt ein Krisengebiet für den Wolfsschutz. Am 11. April 2025 bestätigte das Bayerische Landesamt für Umwelt (LfU) den Nachweis eines neuen Wolfswelpen mit der Kennung GW4442m, einem Nachkommen des Paares #Frigga (GW3092f) und #Griso (GW3519m). Wir haben ihn „#Hope“ getauft – ein schwacher Trost angesichts der dramatischen Lage. Frigga und Griso sind unseren Daten nach tot, ebenso  zwei weitere Welpen ihres Wurfes.

Am Wochenende habe ich den Hertha-Altar in Heiligenrode besucht. Direkt an der Straße gelegen, ist er zwar einfach und schnell zu erreichen, aber sonderlich ungestört fühlt man sich dadurch nicht. Vielleicht ist es zu einer anderen Jahreszeit, wenn die Bäume ihren Blätter-Sichtschutz ausfahren, angenehmer. Das werde ich testen. :D

Unweit der bronzezeitlichen Hügelgräber ließ Martin Ernst von Schlieffen (1732–1825) diese Gedenkstätte zu Ehren der Magna Mater errichten. Hertha wird als wesensgleich mit Nerthus, Frau Holle und Frigga beschrieben.

Das Foto zeigt eine Waldszene mit einer Steinstruktur in der Mitte. Die Steinstruktur ist ein rundlicher Altar, umgeben von einem Ring aus großen Felsen. Es gibt Steinstufen, die zum Altar führen, und der Boden ist teilweise mit einer leichten Schneeschicht bedeckt. Die Bäume im Hintergrund sind hoch und blattlos. Die Szene wirkt friedlich und hat einen alten, mystischen Charakter.Das Bild zeigt eine stilisierte und farbenfrohe Illustration der Göttin Nerthus, die auf einem Wagen sitzt, der von zwei weißen Ochsen (oder Ziegen?!) gezogen wird. Nerthus ist in weiße Gewänder gekleidet, trägt eine Blumenkrone auf dem Kopf und hat einen Schleier über dem Gesicht. In beiden Händen hält sie Bündel aus Weizen und trägt eine Halskette mit einem großen Anhänger. Der Wagen ist mit Blumen verziert und wird von zwei Stangen mit Vögeln an der Spitze flankiert. Im Hintergrund ist ein blauer Himmel mit einem Bogen, der die Szene einrahmt.

LOL! Found test sketches for a dormant project (~restoring lost myths about Norse godesses - because of course I go for the "easy" jobs - and make comics out of them). This is Frigga.

A poem to the great goddess Frigg, who sees the fate of us all.

Oh Frigg
Foremost among goddesses
Did you know?

Your shining son dreamt
Of baleful dreams,
His light snuffed out.

Oh Frigg
Beloved of Spear Shaker
Did you know?

On Sleipnir, Óðinn rode
To the eastern door
Awakened the Völva.

Oh Frigg
Great Weaver
Did you know?

Vegtam played tricks
On the seeress
Her dark prophecy told.

Oh Frigg
Determined Mother
Did you know?

You beseeched
Nearly all spirits,
To save your precious Baldur.

Oh Frigg
Prepared for everything
Did you know?

The gods rejoiced in sport,
Throwing even the mighty Mjölnir
Nothing could harm your beautiful son.

Oh Frigg
Sorrowful Hlín
Did you know?

Blind Höd heard
Loki’s whispers,
Overlooked mistletoe darkened the Nine Realms.

Oh Frigg
Seeress of All of our Fates
Did you know?
You never could have saved him.

I've been Heathen for almost 30 years and have long considered them to be separate. A lot of that is just experiential - they feel and communicate differently when I've interacted with them.

When it comes to the stories about them - especially in the Norse sources - I find it difficult in many cases to substitute one for the other. Just for a couple examples, I can't imagine Frigg sleeping with four dwarves to gain Brisingamen, nor can I see Freya asking all things to spare Baldur's life. And I expect the reaction of the Gods would have been very different if Jotuns had been demanding Frigg's hand in marriage - Odin's own wife! - instead of Freya's.

Of course, none of that constitutes any kind of proof, and UPG is only as good as its source 😀.

Oh, no, Freya's not in the movies, I'm talking about the comic books, where whether Odin is married to Freya or Frigga depends on who the currentt writer is. It was also the comic books where I first saw both being referred to as the Allmother quite a while before I started seeing it pop up from time to time in the Heathen community.

I haven't read much of Jackson Crawford's .work. I've heard a lot of good things about him - it's kind of a shame to hear he's promoting the idea that they're the same goddess. I know I've reached out to both Frigg and Freya and gotten distinctly different responses from them!

@wihtlore Sure, thanks for responding!

I try to be pretty flexible, too, because if this is a living faith, then it has to be able to grow. We need stories of new experiences and to allow our gods to change if they so desire.

I think my main hesitation over the "Allmother" title is that as far as I can tell, it originated with Marvel, who aren't all that great at getting the established lore correct. To the best of my knowledge, it's completely ahistorical, but at the same time, what's to say Frigg hasn't grown in her role and stepped up to be equal with her husband? I'm curious to see where it goes :)

I lIke your drawings!

Modern Heathens celebrate Mother's Night, usually on the 20th - the eve of the Solstice. It's a celebration of both our physical mothers and the Mother Goddesses, in particular, Frigg in her role as the primary Mother Goddess.

(A side note to that: In recent years, I've actually heard some Heathens who've apparently been lnspired by Marvel's comic book portrayal of Frigg/Freya [who they often conflate 🙄] as the All-Mother. No idea what I think about that!)

It's also a time to reflect on the work of the year. That stems from the theory that on Mother's Night for the old Norse, women were to have completed all of their spinning and weaving for the year, and the holiday was also the start of a break in their usual Fibre work until the new year started.

I'm back! And back with a question, who here works with Frigga and can help me a bit?
