Thor's Hammer
Mjölnir Pendants
|
|
Thor's hammer, also known by its Norse
name of Mjölnir or Mjöllnir, features in Norse mythology as one of
the most fearsome weapons, capable of levelling mountains.
The Prose Edda (an Icelandic saga full
of Norse mythology and written at the end of the Viking age) gives a
summary of Mjölnir's special qualities in that, with Mjölnir, Thor:
... would be able to strike as firmly as he wanted, whatever his
aim, and the hammer would never fail, and if he threw it at
something, it would never miss and never fly so far from his hand
that it would not find its way back, and when he wanted, it would be
so small that it could be carried inside his tunic.
Today, Thor's hammer is often used as a
symbol of protection.

Hugin and Munin Thor's Hammer amulets
|
|
These raven Thor's hammer
amulets were inspired by Odin's ravens - Hugin and Munin.
They are both carved from prehistoric British bog oak
from Norfolk which is around 3,000 years old. The wood
is wonderfully dark in colour and feels full of positive
energies.
The amulets are both
filled with dried mugwort. Mugwort has been used for
millennia to aid clairvoyance, lucid dreaming and astral
projection. Our ancestors drank tea made from the leaves
and it has also been used in incenses or smoked to
induce visions. The herbs are permanently sealed inside
with a protective plug of wood - blackthorn for Hugin
and mistletoe for Munin. The amulets each have a
different feather pattern to the front.

known by its Norse name of Mjölnir or Mjöllnir, features
in Norse mythology as one of the most fearsome weapons,
