What happens when the Norse gods know the end of the world is coming, but there’s nothing they can do to stop it?

We’re diving into Ragnarök through the stories of two very different deities: Balder, god of light, beauty and joy, and Heimdall, the watchful guardian of Asgard. We explore Balder’s tragic death as the first unmistakable sign that Ragnarök is coming, Heimdall’s role in sounding the final warning, and how these two gods effectively bookend the Norse apocalypse.

We also chat about Balder’s connection to grief, hope and the return of light, alongside Heimdall’s associations with protection, boundaries, perception and discernment. Plus, we discuss ways to work with both deities, their offerings, symbols and correspondences.
