volva hashtag performance

Replying to @heathenwarcouncil #greenscreen Völvas were usually women who practiced a magic called seidr. This magic enabled them to see the future and cast binding spells—some for protection, some for healing, and some as curses. They carried magical staves to do their work; the term völva literally means “staff carrier” or “wand carrier.” Well-respected for her work, a völva typically traveled from town to town to share her arts. For example, a wealthy person may have invited a völva to their home, while at the same time holding a feast for their friends and family. At this event, the völva would work her arts for all those gathered—reading fortunes, performing healing spells, and more. In return for her work, the völva received shelter and compensation #volva #pagantok #pagan #fy #fyp #witch #witchlife #norse
