Welcome to The Wisdom of Odin! I’m Jacob Toddson, and I created this channel to explore ancient wisdom and spiritual practices from around the world. My journey began with Norse Paganism, and now I travel globally, uncovering knowledge on historical religions, shamanism, plant medicines, and various spiritual paths. Together, we explore how these ancient teachings can inspire and guide us toward a more balanced and meaningful future.
On this channel, I aim to foster unity and understanding across spiritual traditions, beyond boundaries of race, sexuality, gender, or politics. You’ll find an inclusive, open-minded space free from divisive content, drama, and bias. Join me as we discover and share the timeless wisdom that can heal and uplift us all.

Hi Jacob, Thank you for another excellent informative video. I'm really happy that you're putting out content so regularly as well - I look forward to it! I appreciate you and may the Gods view you with favor 🙏

She reminds me what I always thought about the Mountain: it is a force of nature that should be feared and respected because it can kill you. You therefore have to respect its greatness when you go hiking

As I count the Cailleach among my primary gods I honor and work with, I was concerned by how you started this video. However as the video played out, I was glad you showed how this spiritual path is complex and not simply love, light, and rainbows; black and white. The natural world exists in the gray and the seasons and cycles will occur regardless of our mere human desires. We are "a part of Nature", not "apart" from it. My own UPG(unverified personal gnosis) is the Cailleach makes the hard decisions of what beings(animals, plants, people, etc) must die for the betterment and survival of the whole. She sees them return to the earth from whence they came, until their time is to come forth anew. She holds prey and predator to that the same. She is one of the main deities I work with in my healing practice. Metaphorically speaking, sometimes the best thing to do is rip off the bandage and tend to the wound directly, with that process often being painful, so that the person can begin healing. I greatly appreciate the sources and knowledge you have presented, as I have not come across some of these before. You are real and authentic and show the world as it really is. Please continue doing so. I won't agree with everything you say, but I will be better for listening to it. Thanks.

My family does a similar ritual when we take the patio chairs inside for winter 😂

I got some great insight recently on teutonic figures like Odin & Frau Holle w/the wild hunt being the ones that collect all the souls of those who passed during the year to take to the afterlife in this season, which seems both logical and efficient

You have a voice made for radio... sounds like the opening to an NPR broadcast.

She’s a interesting goddess
