Devotional Stuff: Sigyn

bonesandblood-sunandmoon:

  • I have a variety of daily prayers that are a mix of my own work and pieces from a devotional to Her.
  • I also have a variety of weekly prayers that were read while holding the bowl that are a mix of my own work and pieces from a devotional.
  • In exchange for Her assistance with helping me to have something like a “regular” sleep schedule, I used to write something for Her every day – 30 Days of Devotion prompts, prompts for Her blog, prompts for a project I need to wait before sharing, etc.
  • I have a sideblog shrine to Her that’s currently WIP while I fix tags and clean them out.
  • I hail Her on the various days of Her holy cycle: Vanic Wheel of the Year, July’s full moon (Loki’s Capture), several other dates.

Tags: Sigyn, Sigyn as a rebellious Teen, Strength of the Mountain, Loki & Sigyn. Instead of Sigyn as a Child, see: snails, butterflies. Also: keys, tea.

– Note: Sigyn* is still being worked through and will be merged into Sigyn. Sigyn will take a while to work through because it’s a fucking long tag (because it’s now holding previous tags like Deity: Sigyn, Deity: Sigyn*, m’Lady: Sigyn, Keeper of the Keys, etc.).

I no longer believe in the human race.

This is the laziest shit ever

How lazy can humans get?

Have you never met white ppl?

yh but if you look outside your own personal reasons for using this, laziness, it actually looks a really great and practical way to put on your socks if you have a disability that hinders you from otherwise being able so without someone there to help you 

you do realise that there are people out there who literally have to travel door to door helping elderly people, disabled people and people with chronic illnesses to put on their socks? people are paid to help put on pressure socks to help with oedema? don’t you realise that if these people could have one of these tools, these caregivers could be doing something else and that this therefore is an incredible tool designed to cater for some of the most healthcare dependent people in our society? do you guys even realise there are other people living other lives?

i really wish i had this when my spine was broken and i had to wear a medical metal corset which made bending down impossible. i had to ask my mom to help me with socks and it was kinda humiliating.

My dad spends an hour in the morning getting dressed because he has no one to help him to get his socks on because his ankle is fused. If he had this it would literally save him an hour.

“Oh but people are so lazy!”

fuck off you ableist pieces of shit

Honestly I don’t even get how you could look at this and think “lazy”. This looks like more work for an otherwise able-bodied person than just putting their sock on the regular way. It’s pretty obvious this is meant for people who have trouble bending over, like come on.

You know how people go straight to “lazy” on this? Because we’re trained to think of most accessibility modifications as lazy. The disabled = lazy message is deeply embedded in our culture.

ok no but does anyone know where to get this? my best friend and housemate is unable to put on socks due to her illnesses and this would just make her so happy being the independent laydee that she is

My grandpa would have been so happy to have this. It would have made his last years so much easier.

Wow yes look at this useful tool. Here! https://www.activeforever.com/sock-aids

This would have been amazing when I was pregnant. I got so big and was in so much pain I could no longer bend down or even pull a leg into my lap (because I didn’t have one anymore) to put my shoes and socks on.

Mental Illness is isolating in and of itself, but i’ve always felt further detached and embarrassingly “other” in the sense that I seem to experience my illness in far messier, more inconvenient ways than others I know struggling with similar diagnosis. Struggling with mental illness can make you feel disconnected from the general public in the sense that they don’t know what it is to face a large portion of your daily life, but it’s infinitely more disheartening to feel that you can’t relate to other people who are supposed to understand your struggle. My experience is exhausting and inconvenient, it is not a woman wrapped in a sweater staring out her window with a mug of tea in an anti-depressant commercial. My experience is sloppy and cumbersome, it seems too ugly to share with the world and too divergent from the experience of those close to me to share with my friends, so I keep it to myself. It occurs to me that perhaps the reasons I have kept the full extent of my illness so far away from the public eye is the reason I have no representations of illness to relate to, perhaps this is precisely how others around me feel about their struggle. It’s taken me most of adult life to realize that this struggle is not something that I asked for and not something to be ashamed of in the way that I have been. These self-portraits are an attempt to frankly and unashamedly represent the positions that my mental illness puts me in on a daily basis, easy to look at and otherwise.

there are few things to fear
                      when you’re the one that births monsters
                      the one that punishes them

there are few things to fear
                      when all the demons are things you have made
                                           through sin 
                                           through salvation

no
there are few things to fear
but chief among the daunts that send god king’s blood to ice
              is the wrath of a mother

                  the wrath of sigyn
                                      she who holds ragnarok at bay 
              she is something to fear

              this goddess that has been reduced to loyalty alone
              this goddess that cradles the nine in her tender hands

                                  she
                                  she is something to be feared
