Freya - Goddess of Magic, Beauty, and Fertility in Norse Mythology

Freya (Freyja) was the goddess of Magic, Beauty, and Fertility in Norse Mythology. Freya was born among the Vanir gods, but
after the two groups of gods exchanged members. She, her father, Njord, and her brother Freyr, moved to Asgard and were adopted into the Aesir.

Beauty is in the Atmosphere.
It comes from Atmosphere.
It's origin is the outlook.
Of the outlook.

When the outlook is clear by nature.

With many of Scotlands most Northerly points having a Norse influence. Could Freya also be included in what some would consider a cross over Celtic path?

I like the spelling Freyja better … are you sure it wouldn’t make more sense for Hel to be the goddess of fate and magic? I think it would … also- disclaimer this is not traditional mythology and I have a lot of questions about why Freyja is being interpreted this way… and it’s not a bad story but I have some academic concerns about the traditional Scandinavian war goddess who isn’t a beauty goddess, fertility goddess, or very feminine… in fact, even when I was in Junior High, her story online was very different than the traditional story about my favorite Scandinavian goddess that I read as a kid… in the books about the Scandinavian mythology based (for the large part on actual history… although analyzing certain other war goddesses … most are virgin goddess if associated with anything military related… I feel reinterpretation of this myth needs to acknowledge biological reality.. it’s fine to say she’s a sex goddess in modern day since we have effective birth control… that I, personally, believe all active female military members should be required to be on… let’s be real and acknowledge it isn’t sexist to acknowledge that there will ALWAYS be more men active in the military than women… especially in the non-healthcare portion… and to be honest I haven’t analyzed religious mythology and stories about women in the military in healthcare… but have thought a GREAT amount of time about the other. More men will always for practical and biological reality .. and let’s realize most women eventually chose and are happy to have and raise their own biological children.

I think that long-term career military women, officers, and women working in high level government jobs that require danger situations and a great amount of time, for real and practical reasons aren’t going to be able to have biological children of their own and successfully hold those positions. If women like this find spouses that is good and they can be grateful for effective birth control and if their partner is willing to undertake being the primary care taker for adopted children (I do realize there are other ways of doing this for lesbians… but I think there are plenty of children in need of adoption and that if couples can’t have biological children of their own, adopting a child who is in need of a loving home is best- of course that is just my opinion about not doing all kinds of expensive things or hiring surrogates blah, blah, blah, you do what you see as best for you with that if you are in that situation though. Anyway, the types of women I am talking about .. those who like myself probably never wanted a traditional female lifestyle… although I certainly would have very much loved a compatible spouse even though I am not the correct type of person to be a parent… I would however, like to marry my little brother off either to a woman who already had kids of young enough to have kids… I would love nieces and nephews… it’s not that I don’t like kids… it’s just I know myself well enough to know I’m too selfish to be a good parent.. I feel knowing this about myself is responsible. Also, I’m usually a disorganized person and I feel like that too would have hindered my ability to be a good mother: it is what it is… please don’t make me feel like a bad or abnormal and undesirable person/woman just because I am not satisfied with things that are normal and healthy and that most women eventually want… I am still normal- I still would have loved sharing my life with a spouse and having a career of my choosing.. oh well I quickly got off track because emotional brain turned on…

Anyway

Vhalla was in hell not as guard. Odin was the God of death, hell was godess of afterlife before reincarnation. Most all Gods had there own hall. They all had some association with death. Because back then we understood death was part of life.
Not a bad video, info not completely correct though. I'll give you some leeway cause I'm assuming your not a practicing pagan. If you were you would have a deeper understanding.
