Why am I posting a lot of Havamal stanzas lately. Simply put it is something to do. I am picking random stanzas that seem to fit my mood for the day. Akin to receiving your daily horoscope, or picking a random tarot card. How am I picking them? well again has a bit to do with what is happening in my life or what is my minds focus for the day. Today my mind was focused on work so I just simply googled Havamal and work and voila stanza 58. I have been putting both the original Norse script along with the interpretation by Bellows (Henry Adams Bellows) mainly because I like his interpretations more than others nothing more nothing less.
Why the Havamal? Am I Heathen? No I am not Heathen, but the Havamal just seems like it has a lot of simple advice on a lot of day to day life things. Just Like “Lebor na Cert.” HuH? The what? ok the “Book of Rights”, is a book of Early Irish laws and precepts to govern how one should live, but unlike the Havamal it gets into how conflicts, financial issues etc etc be resolved.
Sadly I am getting tired and cannot post more at this time and must get some sleep. Drop a line if you care to.. or not.
