Are you passionate about Norse culture and mythology? Then getting a Norse tattoo might be right for you – but make sure it suits your lifestyle and body type! Ancient Norse tattoos can be both stylish and meaningful; numerous options combine these attributes. However, choosing symbols wisely is essential, as certain ones have been associated with white supremacy, such as Swastika, Sonnenrad, Valknut, and Celtic Cross.
Sleipnir
Odin uses Sleipnir, an eight-legged horse, to travel across the Nine Worlds. Sleipnir symbolizes speed, certainty, perception, and luck when traveling. This mythological figure fits athletes and equestrians seeking spiritual enlightenment and personal transformation. Sleipnir was birthed when Loki transformed into a horse and impregnated an enormous stallion. Despite its unusual origin, Sleipnir is seen as an invaluable ally.
Mjolnir
Mjolnir represents power, strength, rage, protection, masculinity, and ancestral worship. Mjolnir tattoos often depict the hammer with red ink but can also include runes representing various gods and goddesses from Norse mythology.
