A Wandering Spirit

... lost my balance, and the weight I was carrying shifted in my pack. It threw me off balance and I slid into the trees, twisting my ankle. I was in incredible pain and didn't know if I could reach my car. I couldn't continue skiing, nor was I dressed to spend a night in the forest. I feared I would freeze to death unless someone came along to help me. Then, I saw her. It was Freyja. She was on a sled, pulled by two large cats. She stopped and asked if I was ready to go with her to her home. I knew enough Norse mythology to know I was looking at the Goddess Freyja, and that she collects the dead, taking them to her home in Folkvangr. If I went with her, I feared what it might mean." "I told Freyja that I wanted to finish my ski run. She said I was brave to do so, handed me this necklace to remember the day, and said we would meet again in the future. She helped me back onto the trail and told me my car was only one kilometer away. After she headed off, I fought the intense pain and made my way back to my car on one ski.

Freyja is Queen of the Valkyries and she is the one who led you to shore so Anna could help you. Freyja knows a type of powerful Norse magic, called seidr, and can change people's Fates. She is supposed to ride around on a sled pulled by her two large cats, like the one I saw, but since you were kayaking, she used a boat."

Ellie continued, "The necklace she gave us is called a Valknut. The three interwoven triangles are called Odin's Knot, and many believe it is a symbol of Valkyries. Freyja is the Goddess of young women, like us. Go over to the Viking calendar I have on the wall and find February."

I did as Ellie asked and located it. "It is marked Goa," I replied.

"Goa lasts from mid-February through mid-March and is known as the Woman's Month. It is the month of 'sowing the first seeds', marking the beginnings of new life. Out of all the months, it is the one most strongly associated with feminine energy. And one more thing. Freyja is known as the Goddess of Love and Beauty." Ellie looked into my eyes.
