Thor — Norse God of Thunder, Protection & Strength

Thor — Protector, Storm-Bringer, and Friend of Humankind

Thor is one of the most beloved figures in Norse mythology — the defender of Midgard (the world of humans) and the god of thunder, storms, and strength. With his mighty hammer Mjölnir in hand, Thor battles giants, monsters, and any force that threatens the order of the Nine Realms. He is a warrior, but also a guardian — fierce against enemies, yet steadfast in his protection of those he loves.

Though he is the son of Odin, Thor’s power lies not in wisdom or cunning, but in raw strength, courage, and loyalty. Where Odin seeks hidden knowledge, Thor brings direct action — charging into battle with unshakable resolve. His booming laughter and hearty presence are as well-known as his war cries, making him a god who feels close to the people he protects.

Symbols & Companions:

• Mjölnir — his hammer, a weapon of destruction and a sacred tool of blessing and protection.

• Belt of Megingjörð — doubles his already immense strength.

• Goats Tanngrisnir and Tanngnjóstr — who pull his chariot across the skies, their hooves sparking thunder.

Thor’s Lessons:

Thor teaches us that sometimes, the right path is the one taken with boldness and certainty. His presence asks:

• Are you protecting what truly matters to you?

• Do you stand firm in the face of challenges?

• Are you willing to meet obstacles head-on?

His energy is direct, honest, and loyal — a reminder that strength is not just for battle, but for shielding those who cannot defend themselves.

Working with Thor:

• Call upon him for courage when facing personal battles.

• Wear or carry a Mjölnir pendant for protection.

• Honour him with offerings of beer, bread, or roasted meat.

• Embrace the storm — walk in the rain or feel the wind as a reminder of his presence.

When Thor walks beside you, you carry the power of the storm and the heart of a true protector. ⚡
