The Surprising Link Between Thor and Princess And The Pea
Thor used to be written Þórr which I believe means dry, not thunder. Icelandic is a dialect of old norse and the word Dry in Icelandic is Þurr.
is famous hammer, Mjǫllnir comes from the word Mjǫl, meaning flour. Flour means to pulverise. Mjǫllnir pulverises in a sense that it’s purifies.
Thor’s wife, Sif, means to sift, which also means pulverising. It is again a metaphor for purification.
Thor’s two goats are called Tanngrisnir (tooth grinder) and Tanngnjóstr (tooth cruncher).
If Norse myths are rooted in the Indian yogic path, the stories make a lot more sense. In this context, Thor is purification. In fact, I believe he is the origin of the word Purification ( Þurrification).
Thor is an offspring of Odin (spirit) and Jǫrð. His mother Jǫrð is often translated as the Earth, however, the name Jǫrð means jord, which can mean both the earth and soil. I believe in the context of Thor, Jǫrð, means soil.
He has two sons, Móði and Magni. When interpreting old norse myths, the deities are often speaking of the same being, each individual part revealing through their name the true meaning of the story.
I believe Magni comes from the word Magnetism, and it relates to the yogis energisation the body to reach superconsciousness.
Thor’s daughter Þrúðr, is translated as strength, however, I believe it comes from the word Tro, or Þrú, meaning Faith.
I believe Móði comes from Icelandic, á móti, meaning opposite; the opposite pull of cold and hot currents in the body to achieve superconsciousness.
The Princess and the pea is a retelling of Thor aimed at children. Just as Thor, she represents the most purified version of the Seeker.
