Entry #24

This is my interpretation of Freya who was leader of the Valkyries, war's corpse-maidens, this goddess was the one to whom love prayers were most effectively addressed. The goddess who gave her name to the sixth day of our week, Freya was one form of the "large-wombed earth," another version of which her people called Frigg the heavenly matron. Freya appeared to her worshipers as the most beautiful of all goddesses, she wore a feathered cloak over her magical amber necklace as she rode through the sky in a chariot drawn by cats, or sometimes on a huge golden-bristled boar who may have been her own brother, the fertility god Frey.
