Thor

Gods - Norse Mythology

Thor is a god of Norse mythology associated with thunder and battles. His cult was very popular among the peasants.

Thor is a god who possesses enormous strength and manages the hammer mjölnir, instrument capable of spraying a mountain.

So to carry him, Thor needed to wear a belt called megingjord and special iron gloves, known as Jarraghrep. Everyone knew Thor was using his gun when it was thundering.

Described as a strong man, with red hair, beard and with his inseparable hammer, Thor is bound to strength, protection, storms, healing and fertility.

History

Thor is a god who runs the skies with his chariot drawn by two goats. Despite living in Asgard, he is always engaged in quarrels with the giants, enemies of the gods, of which he is victorious. He also has a huge appetite and is said to be able to eat an entire ox during a meal.

Because of their bravery, the Vikings used to make hammer-shaped pendants in order to be protected by Thor.

Family

Thor is the son of the god Odin, the most important within Norse mythology and his wife, Jord. This one is considered the personification of the earth and was venerated by its maternal and matriarchal figure.

In some traditions, Thor is the brother of Meilli, Balder and Váli.

From Meilli, little is known. However, Balder is considered a minor deity, in which his mother, Frigga, did everything possible to protect him from death.

As for Váli, it is not possible to verify whether he is a literary figure or whether he was actually worshiped by the Nordic peoples.

Marriage and Children

Thor married Sif, the golden-haired goddess, and was the mother of his two daughters: Thrud and Lorrine.

The ancient poems only tell the saga of Thrud, a beautiful goddess, who was considered "ruler of time". When angry there were dark clouds and rain, but when he was in a good mood, the sky was clean and radiant.

She was also likely to act as a Valkyrie and thus bring the warriors who had been killed on the battlefield.

From the union of Thor with the giantess Jarnsaxa were generated Magni, which means "strength", and Modi, who is "courage."

Death

Thor's death will take place during the Ragnarök. This is a great battle involving the gods, dwarves, monsters, giants and will mark the end of time.

Thor will be killed by defeating the Midgard Serpent, a creature that lives in the oceans and has grown so much that it is able to bite its own tail. The thunder god will be killed by this animal.

However, the Ragnarök does not mean the end times, just the beginning of a new cycle for humanity.
