Dreams of Fire and Mistletoe

Size: 10"x10"

Sold

This piece is based on the Norse myth of Baulder, whose life was under the protection spell of his mother, Frigga. While alive he was subjected to every kind of attack, which he escaped unharmed. What eventually caused his demise was mistletoe, a small, harmless plant, and a trickster (Loki) with ill intentions.

It can be hung on a wall or displayed on a shelf, perfect for small spaces. Shipping within Canada and the USA are included in the price.

Based on the story of Balder, son of the Norse god Odin. When Balder had dreams foreboding his death, his mother took oaths from all creatures, as well as from fire, water, metals, trees, stones, and illnesses, not to harm Balder. Only the mistletoe was thought too young and slender to take the oath. 

Beautiful and just, Balder was the favourite of the gods. Most legends about him concern his death. Icelandic stories tell how the gods amused themselves by throwing objects at him, knowing that he was immune from harm. The blind god Höd, deceived by the evil Loki, killed Balder by hurling mistletoe, the only thing that could hurt him. After Balder’s funeral, the giantess Thökk, probably Loki in disguise, refused to weep the tears that would release Balder from death.
