Product Description
The Helm of Awe is a type of rune stave and a magical spell of protection used by early Vikings. According to a number of legends, this apotropaic (protective) symbol was intended to confer invincibility in the wearer or instill fear in one’s enemies. Today, it is used as a charm of protection and an emblem of identification by Asatru believers.
The three interlocking triangles are called the Valknut, The Knot of the Fallen, a sacred symbol to Odin, King of the Nordic Gods. It was self carved into the breasts of wounded Viking Warriors so their souls would be carried by the Valkyries to Valhalla. However one would be mistaken to associate this symbol solely with the bloody battlefield. Life is also a battlefield of the soul and to triumph one has to overcome the forces of darkness allowing the spirit to shine.
