Odin
I thought I would talk a little bit about Odin, now the first thing I want to clear up before I continue onward, is that this is my personal interpitation and view of Odin, for me Odin is how I choose to presonify the Sky God, so what I say will not nessciarly fall completely inline with Norse Mythology, though thier may be some smilarities as of course it is originally from Norse Mythology that I drew upon him, and forwhatever reasons Odin just spoke to me the most as the Sky God.
The way way I view the Sky God is as being more of an aloof god, unlike Gaia the Mother Godess, Odin is not as directly interactive in our lives nor is he as everprevelent in everything we see, hear and touch the way Gaia is, he is distant, he is high above within his throne and acts more as an overseer both for things mortal and human, and things divine. He does rule over the other Gods and deals most in Godly matters.
Becasue of this it is a bit difficult to really put in a word just what my relationship with Odin is. He has my resepct and love as do all the gods but I do not feel the same connection to him as I do with some of the other gods paritcuarly those I have previously featured here. But in matters that are greatly imporant to me, and matters in which I am most desperate and I will call upon him, usually in cohesiaon with Gaia, and I give my thansk and prayers to Odin when they are due. He is not forgotten from my thoughts. But I do not feel his pressence as strongly. 6:03 PM - 3/19/2007 - post comment
