(and women, and fabulous people outside the gender binary)
So, this is The Theological Post I’ve Been Avoiding that I briefly referred to awhile back. This post basically serves as an explanation for why I don’t post more about specific entities I know, and one of the (complicated, manifold) reasons why D doesn’t want me connecting D-the-person as [D’s title] on the public Internet. I was going…
I should try to find the updated source post for the idea, but I found that this general idea that Nornoriel talks about in this clicked when I came across a Luciferian’s post about [what I call] the comet-shard theory [because I needed a way to refer to it]. Pretty much Everyone I interact with immediately jumped on using it because it helps my brain to understand that They’re not going to respond as carbon copies of what others have talked about (and it helps to make sense of some of the time issues I’ve run into with some Norse Deities by interacting with younger and older versions of Them).
Case in point: m’Lady Sigyn. So many people talked about Her as a Child, and I initially tried to approach Her that way, but it did not click. I didn’t know why until after the umpteenth dream of a Domme holding rope and the key to a collar, and then it was like ‘oh, okay, my comet-shard is definitely not a young, innocent child then’. It doesn’t mean I’m wrong, or anyone else is wrong; it just means that my comet-shard isn’t the same version of Sigyn that others experience. I typically have to commission stuff because I don’t get the cupcake, pastel associations, but it ultimately doesn’t make a difference for anyone but Sigyn and I.

Sigyn
Ok, so I’m at the point with Sigyn that I know everything I can know about the few times she is mentioned. What I want to know is are there any of you that have UPG that you’d be willing to share? On my end I associated her with water and earth, but specifically earth that’s near water. She also mentioned liking coral, and dolphins.
My personal experience with Sigyn is an association with lavender in everything. from candles to incense. She is associated with rose quartz (Known for helping one’s compassion) and amethyst (inspiration and creativity.)
She is very patient and can be understanding of your flaws and circumstances of worship. I have not had her be angry at me but her sadness at my decisions and lies has been reprimending enough (Its terrible to me, to be the reason she is sad 😦 )
I have had her come to a friend because of his loss of a child although he had no previous experience with the norse pantheon. Perhaps because he mentioned that he was having diffaculty with the anniversary of the loss and her helping another with that. Of course, children are very special to her. She has come across as motherly, and worshiping her includes her family. I found that Loki tagged along a little.
Balance
I talk about Loki a lot, and other deities not much at all. But in fact Sigyn is just as important to me as Loki is. They come as a set, most of the time; not always together, but never far from each other.
Beware UPG.
Sigyn as a Child
I don’t have a lot of experience with Sigyn as a Child, but I thought I’d try to put something together.
UPG: Sigyn is the offspring of one of the Aesir and a Jotun (specifically a Mountain Jotun, for my experiences). Because of this, She was abandoned (probably somewhere in Asgard) and eventually found by Njord, who took Her in and raised Her as a Foster-father.
From what I’ve gathered, She isn’t fond of discussing Her life before Njord found Her. This doesn’t mean She may not discuss it with someone, just that I think it’d be more tactful to approach this topic cautiously (and with the possibility that She won’t want to discuss it).
