june 11: gods/goddesses of friends and family
Sigyn is Loki’s wife. She is listed amongst the Asynjur, the Goddesses of the Aesir.
She is the mother, by Loki, of Narvi and Vali. When Loki was bound in the cave as punishment for his role in Baldur’s death, Vali was turned into a wolf. He then killed his brother by tearing him apart. Narvi’s intestines were used as part of the binding securing Loki.
Sigyn, ostensibly having witnessed all of this, stayed by Loki during his punishment, holding a bowl over his face to catch the poison that dripped from a serpent the Goddess Skadhi had secured above his head. For this reason, Loki is sometimes referred to as the “Burden of Sigyn’s Arms”.
Sigyn’s name means “victory woman”.
Full view and ridiculously long spiel here.
I love Loki and Sigyn. I couldn’t stop picturing Rose Leslie as Sigyn so here, have some movieverse-meets-myth Loki hamming it up with his faithful, butt-kicking wife and fellow adventurer. Feisty couples are the best.
