Gealdýr - Loki

The God Loki is one of the most intriguing God’s in Norse mythology. There is a lot of debate how to depict Loki exactly, but one of the meanings of his name can be interpreted as ’The end’’

To ask of the gods, that one should give
Fair mead for a drink to me

At your feast a place and a seat prepare me
Or bid me forth to fare.

Hail the Gods, Hail the Goddesses

hah unpopular opinion: loki is a shape-shifter and clearly can create both good and evil. he is in the pantheon, and deserves his spot there, and is trying to tell us about an aspect of nature: fortuna, and its unpredictable nature.

[@melancolielupine2023]

@CormacMcMillan You don't know anything about Norse mythology, beside what was written by christian monks centuries after the end of Norse pagan culture. Odin was a tyrant. He betrayed and mistreated Tyr, the real great OG God of Justice and War. Loki is NOT the enemy and the bad guy, he DIDN'T kill Baldr. Baldr is well and alive, Freyja IS the mother of Baldr and never deprived her son of feelings, Odin did it. The genealogy is totally false btw. Freyja is the wife of Tyr, and Odin was obsessed over Freyja and r@ped and killed her. You are totally disconnected from our gods if you believe every lie spread by christians and Odin. It's like the Bible. Written by a tyrannic bearded man. Seek humlility and maybe the great ancients Norse gods will speak to you.

[@hm8746]

Beautiful. I love it and will use it in meditation. I'm a Lokean, I love Loki. I've read harsh comments about him in the comments here, and there are always very firmly pro and firmly anti him. There doesn't seem much in between-? It's a strange thing, to love a god, and find him so compassionate, when in lore he has done 'harm' (others have too). It's something I move between trying to unravel, or accepting the paradox. The only way I can explain it is in terms of 'mythic time', which is not linear, -so what we think of as past, present and future exists all at once. Then think of Loki in three stages- there is a time at the beginning when he was one of three who brought things into existence; there then is a time where the myths that include him exist eg. to do with Idunn; then there is the end where there is his punishment in the cave, and Ragnarok. All these stages exist together, at once in 'mythic time'. Therefore, when a follower of his talks about finding him loving, compassionate and helpful, that experience can be real, because the best of Loki and the harsher Loki exist at the same time. If you reach in you'll eventually feel a touch of the latter. But the best of Loki is amazing. He is necessary. He is chaos, you can't have order on its own. I just can't see good vs evil in Norse mythology. There is chaos and order, and neither are what we're used to calling 'evil'. No black and white, just shades of grey. This is why I can't write him off and avoid him as a 'bad god'.

[@senormonteblanc8407]

No one ever talks of what built Asgard how it was maintained, it was a time slip within dimensional time space, if that makes any sense. Correct, present, love your comment, thank you for that. Life is harsh. SO before Odin we slew them with steel I watched him grow as I regressed in age I saw everything and I saw nothing vampirism is quite a charming concept to those who would idolize monstrosity, but out of monstrosity light can shine because before shadows there is light. Divine light and divine chaos, have you read the Eddas? also remember they don''t show everything like the bible. Did you know that in Sumer when there weren't as many people around magic was plentiful not to say it doesn't exist but it's generally kept to dark magics these days. Oh the horrors felt that day in June last year, nearly died for it but an impression was felt, One lone traveller fought for others took their curses and gave them the oppurtunity for light, they are unworthy of air, Morrigan was there too, fascinating woman her. No lie to you, and on this auspicious day of mine, Wunjo to you :) Do you believe we went away or do you believe in life? My own faith wavers every day. But I believe in myself and Danu, I believe she deserves less "refinement" on her soils, so stranger ask if you have any questions? The son of Man is an open book to those who see through the veil the instigate. GO figure just saw your name and it's Helen. Nothings that ironic is it? Ask my daughter if it's me... I mean that and a life without validation is hell. Felt like letting it out to a traveller of different sorts, Fair winds. - L

The Son of Man! Almost got got by the one known as Maia, spent time with Erode, only to return to my Angrboda! not fucking with you miss this is real shit, see some people worship the black sun, and I am Alpha Draconid, I worship none, do still work with Danu, and spread light over the world. That feeling of positivity and light you get every now and then randomly... you're welcome :) Ever since my time as Fafnir and then Osiris have they hounded me and wanted a Godseed, in fact Margret the Pleiadian commander herself even molested me, jealous woman! All for her cousin the one known as Emilia, who can't keep her filthy paws off me either, trying to give Britain a Godseed. But I say no! And the pyschic battles every day take their toll, but I stand yet resilient in the face of their corruption, Even Plachachas the Pleiadian king and I have a laugh about it. So I say thank you personally for the appreciation of past deeds! Not a lot of that around these days . When the Ancalagan shows you'll know it's true. I've learned the path of the Aeon with Sophia's blessings, and truly changed. Still have a temper but have mastered my chaos and time magic is next. Don't let them break you sister ask the Pleiadians who wrote this or my mother Lillith herself. Just divine it will work I swear. They call us demons but we're actually more light than dark... Well any questions ask, Christian name is Benjamin by the way. Still Loki though, still Fafnir the one who slew the bull, the one who helped build Asgard... Ask Odin if you would like. By the way Loki means Fire, so does Fafnir, and Benjamin means the Son of the right hand of God. I reincarnated on February 1st, Brigid's day. Day of the morning star.Have a good one.

They say when you ask for a favor of the gods or when you need something, even if it is not directly an influence under the god, always start with the god you are most acquainted with. In essence I suppose Loki is perfect as he is quick witted to solve problems, can mostly likely petition other gods on your behalf, and is one of the primordial forces. Hail Loki

Chaos is more than the absence of order. In my mothertongue we have order, a special word for out of order and chaos. As I understand it, chaos is everything in its natural state and when we try to order it, we say what's good and what we don't need. So if we look at chaos we get a better understanding of everything around us. But we mustn't forget, that pure chaos is to much to handle. And tricks are just an unwanted push to learn more. I am also not very experienced in witchcraft, but I love the chaos and everything that comes with it. And I keep little souvenirs from when things went wrong to remind me

aufey (la oo fea) is his mother I believe. " loki, laufey's son" in the lyrics from what I can tell edit: Laufey means leafy/ foliage in old norse.

So honestly I find it interesting the language is sorta similar!

[@TheKa89]

It can be argued he serves a narrative and plot purpose in most stories. Unusually as well for norse mythology, he shows character development in some. You kind of need him as a device in a story to move the plot, create conflict to illustrate a moral or make a point, or conclude existing thematic points. Like most trickster elements, he's entertaining and allows you to explore even taboo topics without conflicting the nature of other characters. We have similar character archetypes in indigenous north american stories. Good examples would be Kipitaakii and Naapi from the blackfoot nations.

[@opticmidnight2629]

You can blame Christian take over for Loki being 'Evil' long with Odin twisting the Norse pagan religion to fit there needs and convert. Loki isn't an Evil god, chaotic at times sure, plays trick of course but usually his tricks get fixed by him like cutting Thors wife's hair and fixing it so her hair became golden.

Thanks for this. Loki is a brave, protective, smart, powerful, wise god. He's a good father, brother in arms and friend. And he was badly depicted only because he was half-jotun, but mostly because he was probably the only one who was able to help Asgard staying up by being the one finding solutions to issues, and remembering to Aesirs that they were doing shi often, and needed to be channeled and told the truth. The old one defamed Loki's name for eras after taking the just place of Tyr, the REAL original God of Asgard. But now this is all changing. Hail to Loki, hail to Hel, Jormungandr and Fenrir

[@ShadaOfAllThings]

Loki is one of those gods with a hilariously awesome story. He's a shapeshifting trickster who's domain included "Justice for those who can not get Justice". So, social outcasts, those who looked down on people for poor reasons, those who got stepped on by people in power. He was also a god who could do the magic of Seidr, which while it wasn't his strongest suit did increase his natural shapeshifting from being one of the Joutun, the fruit of the worldtree. And he used this power mostly to have tons of hot, consensual sex. And kids, cause well, he was an ancient person, sex and kids were on the mind 24/7. But lets keep focused on the fact he didn't rape anyone, or shame any victims of sexual violence, like many of the other gods from any pantheon. In fact, he always made a point of getting consent. And if a person said no? He tried to sweeten the deal with magic: I'll change into this, I'll do that, etc etc. But if a person didn't wanna do it he just fuckin moved on and found someone who wanted to. He was once denied by a tree, so he decided to hit on another tree. He once hit on a mountain, but it wasn't really into him, so he sweetened the deal by turning into a female breeze, then made love with it for an afternoon, both parties satisfied and trolls born as a species. And last, one of those things that warms my heart personally is that he was honored as the god of "Those who walk between man and woman" which just warms the hell outa my trans heart.

Petition to make this the theme song of Loki’s show

[@CeramicQuill]

I hope they return a bit closer to his true character, a bit more akin to what was displayed in the first Thor film and go so much deeper, as the other films really removed the essence of the Norse characters. Loki would be a good character to do explore that, with his involvement with the other races, and willingness to exploit the lore of the world around him. He's a pretty cool character. I respect the original lore and telling of Loki, and Marvel's retelling of him is vastly flawed, but nonetheless entertaining. I would really appreciate it if they gave more acknowledgment of his impartial, unaligned, and unpredictable nature. If they portray him as a villain in it, they do not give his character justice.

[@nalublackwater9729]

I imagine this playing on a season finale, with a slow mo footage of Loki's plan (which not even the viewer was aware of) finally comes together and he brings payback to whoever wronged him during that season. Like many of you, I wish the series was more based on his myth persona than on the Marvel version. The first movie could have set him up for a formidable manipulator, the legendary silver tongued trickster, but instead (and have in mind that I love Hiddleston's portrayal) we had an americanized, watered down villain.

[@krispalermo8133]

Sad thing is, I was hoping to see Loki with the Case of Eternal Winter turn into full Frost Giant form. Where " King " Loki challenge Hulk and only get Hulk Smash again with Hulk walking off saying," Still puny god."

[@agenttheater5]

Well, if you're interested there's the Loki of Rick Riordan's 'Magnus Chase' series, they make a point of pointing out what Marvel got wrong. Loki's pretty charismatic and almost funny there and then he does something that makes you remember that he's spent the last few thousand years with a snake dripping poison on his face - turns out that doesn't actually make you a better person. We meet Sigyn as well but in this version she hasn't spoken since their sons were killed. He of course is trying to start Ragnerok. There's also the Norwegian Netflix series 'Ragnerok', fans are certain that the character Laurits is a reincarnation of Loki. The only thing stopping fans from confirming it is that he's brother to Magne who we know is either a reincarnation or a descendant of Thor but since we're most likely talking reincarnations it doesn't have to be exact. People reckon he's Loki chiefly for the nature of his pranks and because of a scene with him and the people who are actually giants disguising themselves as humans.
