aegri mood determined So, I'm coming to a point in my spiritual and magical path where I feel the need to light the proverbial fire under my ass. I've fallen way behind in my rune studies, and have never really studied sei°r. I've always had an affinity for the runes, and really do ken them, but I hit a point of non-progression a few years back. I've also always had a strong desire to learn about shamanism, especially as it pertains to Nordic culture. So I was thinking that I should start looking to Freyja for guidance. I asked O°inn to send Freyja into my life, that I might learn sei°r from her, as he did. Since then, I've been thinking that these are not the Christian "give me stuff, Gods" type of gods, and that I need to work towards this goal myself, and seek Freyja out, rather than beseeching her to come to me (or worse, ask O°inn to send her... OOOOPS!)
I'm not sure where to start, however, and talking to myself via

The Norse knew a year consisted of 365 days. The had their own calendar, called Primstav . This was a wooden, flat stick with marks on each side. The Primstav had two sides, one for the summer and one for winter. Summer-side started with the vernal equinox and ended the day before autumnal equinox. The winter-side started with autumnal equinox and ended the day before the vernal equinox.
The Primstav had marks on special days like when a farmer should sow, harvest etc. It also had marks for winter solstice and summer solstice as well as for special days related to Nordic Gods
The Norse understood a year gad to have over 365 days. They understood that since they studied the sun and measured its circle. This led to - for them - an introduction on one day every four year.
Every Norse had to have a Primstav. Why? Because they had to know when to prepare for the ting. The tings were held at the same days every year. Normally there was only one ting every year.
It is possible every tribe of the Germanic people gad a primstav. The Germanic people who were exposed to the catholic very early 'lost' theirs. The catholic church took them away and introduced their own calendar. One can only think why this never happened among the Scandinavian people.

edit Norse culture and language, basics of Norse mythology
Norse mythology refers to the pre-Christian beliefs of the Scandinavian people. It is the most well known version of the older mythology common to the germanic tribes, including the closely related anglo-saxon mythology. The language spoken during the period that the norse gods were worshipped, was Old Norse. By the time this language split up into different languages (not including dialects), Christianity had taken root in much of Northern Europe.
edit Sources
Originally, much of Norse mythology consisted of spoken legends, told from the elders and parents to the children, and that way passed on. However, some of it is written, like the Eddas and the first part of Heimskringla (written by Snorri Sturlason between 1220 and 1230 on Iceland), which is also known as The Norwegian King Sagas, as it tells about the Norwegian kings, and their supposed relation to the Gods. The original title of this work is not known, as the oldest version lacks the title page, and starts with "Kringla Heimsis". Other than this, there are also runestones, which for practical reasons cannot contain very much information, and the surviving myths and folklore.

Also the name of a language which descended from old Norse, which was spoken in the Shetland and Orkney islands. The extinction of the language is believed to have come about during the 15th century, when the islands were ceded to Scotland, and the new government discouraged the language.

Inflamed with the fervor of lightning and the power of thunder, Thor rose to the top of his field in warcraft during World War I, World War II and is recognized as the original formulator of the idea which inspired World of Warcraft. Of course, the bears and liberals made a concerted attack upon the righteous aspirations of Thor by hijacking his idea and smashing into the Satanic (or Peloskic) monstrosity which it is now recognized as. In World War I, Thor led the mighty advance from the North which is largely unrecognized as the true defeat of the Fermans. His march on Germany, preceded by un-brain-washing rays from his hammer, Mjolnir, was greeted with shouts of glee and songs from pleasant Bavaria from pretty blonde women from all over the Deutschland.

    Norse mythology
    Norse mythology represents the early pre-Christian religion, beliefs and legends of the Scandinavian people, also known as the religion of Ásatrú or Odinism. Most of this mythology was passed down orally, and much of it has been lost. Happily, some of it was captured and recorded by enlightened Christian scholars such as (particularly) Snorri Sturlusson in the Eddas and Heimskringla, who rejected the idea that pre-Christian deities were devils. Quite similar mythologies were held by more southerly Germanic tribes. Exceptions to this shortfall in documented resources relating to the mythologies of early Germanic societies can be found in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle , the Beowulf sagas and the Gesta Danorum by Saxo Grammaticus . Limited information exists in the Germania of Tacitus , but the Eddas remain our main source of information. The Elder Edda (also known as the Poetic Edda ) was probably written down circa by the scribe Saemund[?]

    edit Deities
    The deities (gods and goddesses) were divided into three clans: the †sir, the Jotun, and the Vanir. The †sir were primarily the major figures of Norse mythology, such as Odin and Thor , who eventually became non-hostile towards the Vanir, lesser-known gods ( Freyr and Freyja as examples) through hostage-exchange and marriage. The Jotun (including the notable god Loki ) were classified as giants with extraordinary strength and were enemies to both Vanir and †sir clans, even though marriages have been known between them.
