Njord
by Micha F. Lindemans
The Norse god of winds, sea and fire. He brings good fortune at sea and in the hunt. He is married to the giantess
Skadi. His children are
Freya and
Freyr, whom he fathered on his own sister. Originally, Njord was one of the
Vanir but when they made peace with the
Aesir, he and his children were given to them as hostages. The Aesir appointed both Njord and Freyr as high priests to preside over sacrifices. Freya was consecrated as sacrificial priestess. She taught the Aesir witchcraft, an art that was common knowledge among the Vanir.
Old Norse: Njöror
