Germanic Paganism

There are many conflicting opinions surrounding Ēostre being a concubine of Wōden. The primary idea comes from the etymological connection within Norse sources of her many mentioned husband Óðr. Within the Völuspá, Hyndluljóð, Gylfaginning, Skáldskaparmál, and Heimskringla. But also the poem Sörla þáttr. Which is much more theologically divisive. Sourced from the Flateyjarbók manuscript compiled by two Christian priests in Iceland: ——————————————— “-but the daughter of Njörðr was Freyja, and she was fellow to Oðin and his concubine.” ——————————————— “Oðin loved Freyja full sore, and withal she was the fairest woman of that day” ———————————————

Wōden and Ēostre

As Wōden cultists, we are concerned with studying the theophany and divine nature of our highest god, Wōden. By extension this also includes the marriage between Wōden and His wife, Frīg, and understanding the divine associations of His sons. I recommend following both Þórr Siðr and Holles Brauch for these reasons. Þórr Siðr is a Þunor cultist highlighting a lot of useful knowledge about Wōden's son, Þunor, primarily from a Norse perspective. Holles Brauch has shared interesting links between Holle and Frīg, developing our understanding of Her from a continental German outlook.

Guard yourselves from the devourer my friends. Worship our Gods in rightful fashion and you will be safe.
