Fun fact: Odin hanging himself is the inspiration behind the tarot card the hanged man because it represents sacrifice and wisdom just like Odin did when he went to the tree to study the nine realms

Odin is honestly the best head god of any mythology. He seems very chill and just wants to learn more about the various things in the world. He seems like he would be very nice to talk with.

Check this out! Esus is another name for Odin. The word Esus. Add a "J" that was later introduced into the Anglo Saxon English alphabet in the 17th century. What do you have when you add- "J" with Esus? ;) romecorruptedchristianity.wordpress.com/2013/07/09/esus-and-jesus-coincidence-the-trinity-of-esus/

I enjoyed this. One thing to understand about the Old Norse religion: The Old Norse religion is not one set religion with a basic set of morals, laws, or beliefs for that matter. We know a lot about Old Norse and yet we know very little as generally each Jarldom, Kingdom, etc had their own iteration of the religion with perhaps a slightly different story. This is because the Old Norse religion isnt based off of a book like Christianity. It is only stories and "fish tales" happen. The Sami people might have believed something differently from their neighbors whilst still believing in the same God's. They all stem from the Proto-Germanic "Old Norse" religion however.

You have got a good case though, it's hypocritical! Many religions don't have any reasonable evidence. If they don't they should be considered a myth because truth is determined by evidence. Even if there is no such thing as absolute certainty, you only have what is most probable given the current evidence.

The Allfather, willing to traverse almost any obstacle for his wisdom... He's certainly admirable, a great role model and my guide, Odin's wisdom has always inspired me, and I have faith that he watches over us. Thanks for this video.

I'm always wanting more on Gungnir! One of my favorite weapons from any mythology and so little is known about it. Everybody loves Mjolnir but Gungnir was a King's weapon. It shattered enemy weapons, even magical ones. It was perfectly balanced and never missed it's target. Gungnir video please.

Oden is one of the few figures from pre- Christian Europe whose influence can be seen to this very day. The fact that the founder of current day Sweden, king Gustav Vasa, chose to imitate him in dressing up as an poor wanderer as late as in the 1500s is a testament on how beloved he was by the people here

I truly love your channel. Keep doing the best work.

To be honest, Odin sounds like a pretty chill person. Most gods in mythologies (especially the greek ones) tend to be flawed but mostly brutal and cruel towards mortals and even between each other. Here not only Odin walks among mortals, but he even opens his door to one ice giant (loky) and asks him to be part of his family despite his reputation. Odin could be one of the most "good" gods around mythologies, hell he even was willing to sacrifice his eye for wisdom and knowledge. I'm sure there must be a few stories that say otherwise, but by comparison.... yeah odin is a pretty chill god.

Nice, this series should be interesting. Hopefully you'll do some videos about Celtic and Slavic mythology in the future.

Great job on your Odin synopsis, I have studied Norse mythology quite deeply. I believe you're a little off on Loki, however. A lesson that always followed Loki's stories are that no matter how badly you mess things up, it's in your power to fix things, as Loki always did, with the notable exception of his role in Baldr's death, after which he was chained basically forever with snake venom dripping in his eyes, with a loving wife trying to save him from it. Very good to teach what happens when your trickery becomes malicious and causes irreparable harm.

I'm pretty interested in learning what I can on Odin. He seemed to be pretty important to my ancestors. I had a DNA test done ( being adopted and all, I was curious) I found out that I had ancestors from Odense denmark . ( I had quite a few more viking ancestors as well elsewhere )

So happy to have found this

Myth & Legend draws a fine lane between in the sand... Odin = Zeus of Atlantis during Younger Dryas Multiple Asteroid Impact Event 13000 years ago destroying Rockall Bank/Island when the Atlantic was 100 Meters lower. "In the Northern Portions & Along the Shore" & "Beyond the Pillars of Hercules"... You can even use the physical dimensions given to measure Rockall Bank/Island. I especially like the part @ the end about the "mountain low on all sides ... broke it off all round about"... The north eastern portion of the island will be the visual keystone..

I was looking forward to this, and you did not disappoint!

Yes Norse mythology came through

Been waiting for this series! Also, may I request Heimdall?

Excellent start to a new series. Thank you.

Something very interesting also about "Asgård" where the God's lived and "Ashem" where Asgård was is that in an old story called "Yngligasagan" by Snorre Sturlasson it seems they believe Ashem was in Asia, east of the Black Sea I believe from what I remember of the text. He also mentioned Asia Minor and that would indicate Turkey. So, maybe vikings, at least in Sweden, came, at least partially, from Asia. Obviously Germanic tribes were likely the biggest source.

Awesome! please continue with the norse mythology serie

Very nice can you do more of the North mythology and the Greek mythology as Well?

Thomas Gray wrote a beautiful poem called "The Descent of Odin", featuring the Allfather descending into Hela's underworld realm, where he uses magic to force an undead oracle to tell him about things to come, i.e. Ragnarok. There's a reading of the poem on my channel if you're interested.

thank you for this great start to another series keep it up

Derrick Frenney Shit man, just referencing the Red Wedding made my stomach turn. That was brutal to read.

Odin is one of my three patrons. Odin the wanderer mostly, the warrior secondarily.

Now I know the reasoning behind some of the things added in World of Warcraft surrounding their version of the Norse gods. Like the messenger raven of Havi, Odyn in disguise.

At one point of time, you'll understand that. I forgot what Goddess at one point of time actually got turned into a cop and that's what they were actually referring to. If you go look up Greek mythology, one of the goddesses got transformed into a cow. Feather kind of messing up at this point. But yeah, you'll understand.

Believe in what you believe but do not push it onto others. Let it come naturally. It will stay with them until death

The way things are arranged in the physicality is not random, they have patterns. Lots and lots of patterns. Which means, for something to effect something else and become in a certain sort of form or way or function, it has to be arranged accordingly in relevance to the rest. I do think there is permanence and absolute even on the physical realm as far as occurrence is concerned, but there too is in absolute and impermanence that dwells within and through them

Interesting, I see many similarities to ancient Indian mythology, especially the cyclical nature of events ("yugas" in sanskrit)

these people were much behind us on their metaphysics. Our rishis recognised the concepts of reincarnation, karma and consciousness (brahman) being the reality of everything. To be Norse religion is nothing more significant than the religion of se rand tribe in south America or Africa. they have nothing on India.

This sounds exactly like Greek mythology where Zeus and his brother Haites took out their father who ate the other children so they couldn't grow to over throw him. Zeus took control of the skies and Haites took control of the grounds and all below it.

The Sons of Odin are Týr, Heimdallr, Bragi, Þórr, Meili, Baldr, Höðr, Hermóðr, Víðarr, and Váli. The other names are untrustworthy.

@Dice_roller

Жыл бұрын

The O in Hǫðr's name has a tail not a umlaught/diaeresis, nor should you fully believe Heimdallr and Týr are sons of Óðinn, as Snorri is not a great source for the Norse mythos' beliefs as he adds his own personal agenda to said beliefs, case in point, him saying that all of the Æsir are children of Óðinn, which is clearly false. Not to mention Hymir being stated to be the father of Týr in _Hymiskiviða._

Well, "evil" is just a matter of perspective. But in Norse mythology there is a lot of beasts. The Jotun are usually considered evil, but they are not really considered gods as they have nowhere near the same abilities of the Gods. There is a Jotun called Surtr, who reigns over Muspelheim and the fire Jotuns. There are others aswell, but he was the first one who came to mind.
