Viking women may not have been physically taught for battle but they see what their fathers or husbands do and learn.And they are more than capable of taking care of themselves!
“There were once women in Denmark who dressed themselves to look like
men and spent almost every minute cultivating soldiers’ skills. …They
courted military celebrity so earnestly that you would have guessed they
had unsexed themselves. Those especially who had forceful personalities
or were tall and elegant embarked on this way of life. As if they were
forgetful of their true selves they put toughness before allure, aimed
at conflicts instead of kisses, tasted blood, not lips, sought the clash
of arms rather than the arm’s embrace, fitted to weapons hands which
should have been weaving, desired not the couch but the kill…” (Fisher
1979, p. 212).
Oh Valkyrie hear my Prayer...Take this shieldmaiden into Valhalla accept me as one of your own...
If I Were to Die in Battle
By Munin’s Kiss
If I were to die in battle,
Who would invite me home?
Would it be Odin or would it be Freyja,
Whose hall I’d be taken to?
Would Odin want me,
Would I make the cut?
Am I the type he’d want,
To be fighting by his side?
Would Freyja have me,
Would I feast in her halls?
Would she find me worthy,
To lend her my sword?
The two they stand together,
Ready to make the choice,
Him with his initiator,
Her initiator with her.
As the Valkyries fly me closer,
I can’t help but think,
Is it them that make the decision,
Or was it always my choice.
