Heathen Wyrdos Podcast - Evil in Heathenry

WELCOME TO SEASON 3!  This episode we come in like a wrecking ball to demolish the ideas around 'evil' in heathenry. It's not as simple as saying the Aesir are good and the Jotunn are bad. Want to know more? Listen in. Wyrdos Sif, Theo and Kenna discuss the origins of the word evil, and how it shouldn't be used to define or label our Nordic gods.  - LINKS: Angrboda: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVhIWgtUtws Ocean’s Multipart Soul: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmQb8qZk-qg Sif’s Multipart Soul:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nY9oRL6Fl3A Battista paper: http://www.sagaconference.org/SC13/SC13_Battista.pdf Sacred Texts, Havamal: https://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/poe/poe04.htm Ocean’s Fenrir: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0dNasvVewk Wyrdos Oaths: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjViHwwSXcQ Excerpts: Havamal 117 “Wounded to death, have I seen a man by the words of an evil woman; a lying tongue had bereft him of life, and all without reason of right.” - Völuspá 38-39, Ursula Dronke Sal sá hón standa sólo fiarri, Nástrǫndu á, norðr horfa dyrr. Fello eitrdropar inn um lióra. Sá er undinn salr orma hryggiom. Sá hón þar vaða þunga strauma menn meinsvara ok morðvarga ok þannz annars glepr eyrarúno. Þar saug Nidhoggr, nái framgengna, sleit vargr vera. Vitoð ér enn, eða hvat? ----- A hall she saw standing remote from the sun on Dead Body Shore. Its door looks north. There fell drops of venom in through the roof vent. That hall is woven of serpents’ spines. She saw there wading onerous streams men perjured and wolfish murderers and the one who seduces another’s close-trusted wife. There Malice Striker (Nidhoggr) sucked corpses of the dead, the wolf tore men. Do you still seek to know?
