Woden ft Hugin & Munin (bronze)

Woden (Odin) for me, is not the war loving viking Allfather as he is commonly portrayed, but instead he is the archetypal shaman, an ancient venerated ancestor. Through my research and practice Woden has revealed himself as a more complex occult god, akin to Thoth (Egyptian deity), whose role comprised of gaining magickal knowledge. For Woden this also included training in Seidh (Trance magick) by Freya (Freo).

Here he is presented in a contemporary tribal emblem, featuring his Raven familiars, Hugin and Munin. The design references Inuit, ancient Indo European and Medieval art styles mixed with modern graphic design.
