I think Tyr is representative of the sacrifice and bravery required to make order out of chaos. I have always felt a strong connection to both Tyr and Odin
I joined the US Army as an offering to Tyr. I'm currently watching this from my barracks in AIT. And although I have not noticed him in my life often I have definitely seen him once or twice
May Týr keep you
What’s ur MOS?
Very interesting concept. I like that idea.
If you end up in Japan reach out to the Okinawa Pagan Circle. We have a good group of people and are recognized by the US Army as a religious group.
I found my connection with Tyr through my experience in the army via loyalty to my comrades. What MOS are you? I’m a tanker for the Oregon National Guard
Tyr is good for loyalty to friends. He was willing to step up and sacrifice his hand for the sake of the group (and proving bravery)
Yeeesss
I had a pretty strong experience with Tyr a few months after I started working with him. I have eczema, which usually flares up when my anxiety and depression gets bad. One night, I was having a full-blown mental breakdown, i was crying, i couldn't think straight, and it felt like my whole world was crashing down. So, with the strong emotions, my skin flared up. Usually when my skin gets real bad I take an extra long shower and do lots of skincare afterwards, but I just didn't have it in me that night. I fell into bed crying, and started talking to Tyr. Nothing super important or noteworthy, most of it was just venting to him about how upset I was. Then towards the end of my talking to him, I started repeating "please help me, I don't know how but please." and only a couple of minutes after I asked him for help, my mind had cleared, and I felt this burst of energy. It wasn't the anxious energy I had been feeling, but an energy much closer to determination/motivation. Despite how bad my skin hurt, I went and finished my nightly routine, the energy wearing off once I was out of the shower, but the clear mind staying. It meant a whole lot to me that he would help to give me that push just because I had asked.
I’ve always struggled with my mental health and physical health. And have always questioned my beliefs since I left fully Christianity when I was 13. When I started to follow the Norse path Tyr was the god I was immediately drawn to and have felt the most guidance from. He has really helped me to get to a better place both mentally and physically and has seen me through some of the hardest days of my life
I'm a boxer / martial artist through and through, I have recently become a passionate Norse pagan and Tyr was who I connected with him immediately. I have a fight booked for December 4th and I am torturing myself with training everyday. I never miss a day and I always go for a personal best each day. Even when I can't do it and I can't get out of bed I tell Tyr and other gods on their days that this effort is for them. My progress is incredible and I've never felt more of a purpose in life than to represent the power of the gods in battle once again. I have also said to Tyr his mighty right sword hand can live on. If he is happy with my efforts and decides to bless me his right hand may take place of my own in battle and all it's successes will be credited to him. I thought this was a big ask to have the power of mighty Tyr in my right hand but on Wednesday I had some hard sparring booked for the evening. I was already tired after my daily 1km swim, 10k bike ride , 1 mile run , 1km rowing all done to attempt PB. I thought defeat was likely but after a close first round I relaxed and aimed my right hand straight and fast. Its affect was like never before and my opponents nose bled his eyes glazed. After one more right hand he went down. I credit Tyr and I plan to get his rune on my right wrist. Norse paganism Is the way of life. Hail to the gods. Anything is possible through belief in them.
How was your fight?
@@thetruth3332 I won 1st round stoppage
@@thetruth3332 all credit to the gods
I do competitive Muay Thai. I started looking into my heritage recently and my last name is allegedly the feminine version of Tyr. I noticed a lot of commonalities. Definitely about to look into it further. Good luck out there
really glad my story made it to this video, and I'm happy that it was an interesting story for you Jacob. Hail Týr.
Wooooo
So I just had the most awesome Tyr and Odin experiences tied together. I am in the army and before PT dedicated bettering myself physically and as a soldier in general to Tyr. After PT on my way to my car there was the most beautiful sunrise I have seen in years, I said to myself if that’s not a sign I don’t know what is. An Odin experience is what brought me to this path about 9 months ago. All of a sudden after thinking about the sunrise two huge ravens flew about five feet over my head one of them had a rat dangling from its mouth, it was almost Odin reassuring me that I was still following my path, I hadn’t had a real sign from Odin in at least 6 months.
Great stuff man, thanks. I have just been learning about Tyr myself and am finding a deep resonance.
I haven't had a lot of time and energy to give to the gods or proper rituals or offerings since I got sick. However, I have a connection with Tyr. I was hospitalized in April with an embolism and was doing my best before to promote myself more with the pantheon persay. Doing offerings and giving thanks. Now that hospitalization I had an embolism and was going to die unless they did a surgery. Now the surgery nurse who took me back and was a bad ass through most of it from what I remember and I kid you not her name was Tuesday. Cause of her and the surgeon I lived and am here discussing the god Tyr. SKAL.
I literally knew nothing about Tyr and yesterday he spoke to me, my bf helped me realize it was him cause I couldn't even recognize him.
today I've been looking for information on how to give offerings to him, I've been praying, and here there is my answer. today I feel grateful, thanks, to the bravest of the warriors 💛
i have a very special Tyr encounter that happened shortly after my first connection to the old Gods in Talafar Iraq in 2006. I really don't feel comfortable putting my whole story on blast but I'd love to share it with you to pick apart in some other form like email or such.
Thank u for all ur videos I'm coming from catholicism. I asked the gods for guidance last night and I got a sign from them from a big gust of wind I offered like 5 shots of whiskey for Odin thor and loki
Thats awesome that our ritual was included! Super cool! And yes we biuld a rocket stove from clay and biult a fire in it to make a craft. Was a beautiful time
I'm a USAF Airman and was a Correctional Officer before that. I wear my berserker arm-ring in uniform every day, and had followed Tyr before my military career. Now more than ever
I could only feel Frigg when I started my Norse pagan journey years ago and none of the male gods particularly felt right for me, Odin especially didn’t feel like the right god for me to worship but when I heard stories of Tyr I realised that he’s been with me since a child and I just didn’t realise it at the time, I’ve had a difficult life but every obstacle I’ve been given I’ve overcome and I’m still surviving despite it all and I know that’s because of the strength of Tyr and I now feel him more and more since I realised it was him and acknowledged the ways he had presented himself to me/in my life, he seems to show up in the most interesting of ways and I just love that! 🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️ I love your channel too, I recently found it and love the way you go about every subject with objectivity and your energy is great! 🥰 I also absolutely loved the hole in the rock offering idea, that’s so lovely! ❤️❤️❤️
My dear brother, Tiwaz is pure and honest old and dignified. He is fair and just. All will be returned in its weight not less not more. Only what is just not less not more.
Thank you so much, this video really inspired me! ☺️
Mmmm, love that Gardener's Pie! Even with the "extra energy" it brings! And yeah, it was my first group Tyr ritual, and it was powerful there on the creekbed in the woods!
And, another great video!
Definitely feel Tyr is my patron diety. He represents much of what I stand for, especially being a veteran.
I've always felt a great connection to Tyr from the moment I first read about him. I named my dog Fenrir, it felt fitting.
I don't even know where to begin. It is just amazing I came across your video the day after I felt like the time was okay and right to get something of Tiwaz to carry on me. This video put some of what I thought were coincidences into better perspective. Thank you for the work and knowledge you share.
I have just recently discovered paganism for myself and after gathering some information and finding your channel yesterday, I decided to devote todays evening to the gods and try to introduce myself and bid for guidance.
Though I didn’t expect to see any results on my first attempt, I did get a sign while meditating. A spear appeared before me, which led me to believe Odin was giving me a sign. As I looked closer, I saw outlines of a man. Though I could not tell who it was, the name Tyr kept ringing in my head. After thanking him for his appearance I asked why he had chosen to reveal himself to me, he said that he was to be my guide on starting my journey and finding my way to the gods.
After reading up on him I was confused for a while, as I don’t serve nor have I ever served in the military. But after reflecting for a while, it is starting to make sense to me.
My general fascination in weapons and warfare, my drive for success and being the best version of myself, the fact that I have been an active (currently passive) rifleman in our representational town guard… I suddenly feel like Tyr has always been with me.
So it feels like fate that you just recently put up some great material to find out more about my guide. Excited to learn more about him and for him to introduce me to the other gods and beings, thinking about my past, I feel like I already have a certain bond with him and will devote my self improvements to him going forward.
I do wonder what the meaning of the spear may be. I could not find any connection to Tyr. Does it mean that Odin chose to send Tyr to welcome me? I will be meditating again in the upcoming days to reflect on this sign.
I’ve been journeying on the Norse Pagan path since my time in Afghanistan with the Army in 2016. Felt a connection with Odin and Thor as I started my journey, but I have been drawn to Tyr constantly since then. I am an Army Veterinarian and worked with military working dogs daily. Now, I am the veterinarian for U.S Customs and Border Protection, taking care of working dogs every day here as well. I place my hand in the jaws of Fenrir figuratively speaking on a daily basis. Going through a challenging time emotionally right now. Calling out to Tyr for strength and guidance. Thank you for the reminder that he is still there.
Ive been trying to figure out some of the best ways to honor Tyr for a few years now and hes certainly a man of action rather just words and this is officially confirming that for me. And the fact that im about to make my first ever mead and found this video only means that this first ever hand at mead shall be in Tyrs honor. I just hope he likes the flavor
ive never had a tyr experience before but i think watching this theyre could be a time i may connect with him..deffo for me getting my motivation back to get my arse back to weight training.. thanks for the video man
Love the show brother, I listen to it on Spotify at work and it helps me through even the toughest days in the factory. I prayed to Tyr today and he filled me with a courage and resolve beyond articulation. I often think of his sacrifice for us and the rest of the gods and it’s truly inspiring. I wouldn’t even say he’s my main patron god but he’s very important and emotionally moving nonetheless and I understand why people so fervently worship him
Hey Jacob, so my Tyr experience was actually last week and I was playing rugby and it was halftime and me and my team were tired and I took a moment and quickly spoke to tyr and all of a sudden myself and the team got a big up lift of energy and excitement and we ended up wining that game so I dedicated that match and all my future matches to Tyr
Interesting video, & I have a small story to relate. While watching this video I was put in mind of the Norse gods who have reached out to me; Odin, Baldr, & Tyr. Next thing i knew, I saw a bindrune incorporating Ansuz, Tiewaz, & Sowulo. I've drawn it down, & plan to make an amulet of it. My thanks to you, & Hail to Odin, Baldr, & Tyr.
So I also have been blessed by what I think is tyrs presence twice…one time after reading the famous stories about fenrir and I was meditating ALONE in the sauna at my local gym and when I was finished I noticed a CHAIN had been left 🤷🏽♂️ it was highly symbolic to me. Same thing happened again I was really thinking about tyr hardcore, fresh on my mind, and then on my way to work a saw a one-handed man on the road! clear as day. I believe these things were meant for me to see…This kind of thing has happened to me many times and I’m greatful for a lot of the advice on this channel. Thanks ❤
Awesome video, as per usual! Have you considered doing an video on Hel? Had a dream that had some strong symbolism related to her and I would love to try to connect and give some offerings to her, but im lost at where to begin
Oops, shared my Tyr experience last video
. But to be fair I work with Tyr when I'm aqble (I probably ought to presently, really; I try not to trouble the gods); and I find I connect to the justice aspect easily enough. If it helps, one suggestion for anyone looking to work with him is go in with a positive attitude. Tyr's been friendly with me in my experience, but he's still a warrior and so respect and positivity go a long ways towards working with him. I've poured out mead for him before, and usually if I make a general offering to the gods, he's pretty well implied every time; deeds are also good but with those you still ought to go in expecting a challenge. My best encouragement if you're afraid is... Tyr seems to GET it. I scare easily, but as long as you try... Tyr's going to be there. You got this.
I have a friend who's a Norse Pagan priest. Tyr is one of the gods he said I might feel a connection to. He recommended I look into Tyr, Bragi, and Baldr. Personally I also want to look into Odin, Thor, Freyja, and Freyr. I'm honestly pretty new to Paganism and I'm trying to figure out which gods I vibe with.
Yes let's goooo!
My probation period on my career is almost finish and my company looking for someone for the senior position which sometimes I wrote Teiwaz rune on a piece of paper to pray that my hard work dedication manage to achieve this position. Hail Tyr! Hail Odin! Hail to all the gods!
I found heathery very recently in the last 6 months. When I began learning runes I asked one question to my rune. What god favors me the most. And my single rune pull was tiwaz. Started reading and was blown away how connected I was to him. And the story's told about him. I find my self a new heathen feeling more connected to this faith then ever. I connected with him again on a trip to far north Maine beach. I gave him and offering and have not looked back on my choice to become a heathen. I hope to connect with other gods but for now I was bewildered. Happy. And overall accepted by my new found faith. SKÅL
Another note I found it fascinating that I just started to become interested in Norse paganism and with 8 years of military service that he had favor for me. Blown away that tiwaz was the first rune I ever drew. This is the elder futhark for those wondering.
Mine happened way back in 7th grade when I was still agnostic/ atheist and learning more about religions to pick my own grew up Catholic/baptist depended on side of family but he showed me his story with the wolf while we were learning about Greek mythology not even touched Norse yet but the next day in class I couldn’t help but raise my hand and ask about a god a hand and a wolf Bc that was only thing I remember from the dream
For those in and around central Texas we have a Norse pagan group in Killeen tx
I have this amazing little black mouth cur dog that has a stumpy front leg. I couldn't think of a more suitable name for this tough boy. His vet believes that his mother accidentally bit off his foot while attempting to break the umbilical cord. I got him when he was already 7 months old, and his disgraceful "breeders" blame it on a birth defect when they dumped him and his emaciated brother off at a kill shelter. Maybe it is a defect, but it genuinely looks like trauma. Regardless, this dog is both gentle and protective. He can throw his German shepherd and pitty friends around like their ragdolls. Sure, they can outrun him, but he his a wrecking ball and so determined.
You are right brother I am a long hard path my self but I am really greatful to the gods for saving me from my own darkness all hail Odin and all lord Thor and all hail the allfather of Valhalla skal brothers and sisters from a very proud Norse pagan from Dublin Ireland
Woooooooo lets gooooo
Tyr 💚
love your videos. I dont think you will see but I have a question. I grew up christian but at some point with depression and such I fell out of it and am generally not religious but I feel like maybe they may be some signs and I enjoy learning about the norse mythos. TLDR do you have any videos or resources on maybe strengthening ones faith? because i would love to start practicing but if my hearts not in it i would only be insulting those who do. Thank in advance to anyone who helps
Ive been a norse pagan for aeound a year now im trying to follow tyr but i have yet to have any encounter with any of the jobs or any calling i would love some insit into how to trigger it or what im doinh wrong
I feel as Tyr always assisted my miraculously undetected runs to steal brewing equipment and beer.
Can you do a video about Víðarr?
I'm making an offering to tyr tonight, I've had my own personal experience with him recently and it is time for me to make my first offering to a god on this path
Hey Jacob, new here but would it be considered sacrilege to put a tiwaz rune on a skateboard?
As far as I know, Tyr was the Main God in the old germanic faith. Later Odin (Wodan) became the Main Character.
I’m trying to gain distance in my life. And dedication. I was wondering if Tyr could aid me in my journey in this.
Anybody know where the rock is? I want to see if I can find it myself since I live in ohio, give me somewhere cool to hike to and give an offering to Tyr
I study many different forms of spirituality to find my own truth in the world. The man that introduced me to Norse paganism told me on our first meeting that my energy reminded him of Tyr. He proceeded to look for his bag of runes to give me a lesson on them and teach me more about Norse paganism. When he thought he had found them he reached in to pull out a rune and discovered the bag he found was just full of ordinary stones that he had collected, and as he dumped out the entire bag a single rune fell out which turned out to be Tiwaz. He told me that had to be a sign since he was thinking about that specific rune prior to looking for the bag. After he found the bag with the rest of his runes in it, he put the Tiwaz in with the rest of them, shook the bag to make sure they were mixed, then proceeded to pull the same rune for me 7 times in succession. I sincerely believe that everything happens for a reason and nothing is coincidence. This video makes me believe it that much more. Thank you so much for covering the subject and I sincerely hope to connect with you sometime in the future. Much love from Kentucky.
P.S. I’ve seen that cannon several times throughout my childhood 😉
Tyr is a war deity. The reading shows he walks with you. Pray to him to destroy your enemies and for victory.
I did a ritual for tyr when I was goin threw hard times with addiction. And let me tell you, after I drank my horn of mead, the room started spinning and it felt like I fucked with something I shouldn’t have fucked with.I hit my bed and passed out, and had a really weird/scary dream. He’s the only deity that I’ve actually felt something like that from doing a ritual. Shit was wild no lie,checked my ass up real good.😂
And I can drink a whole bottle of the mead I get. It was unusual and scary but I think I needed that.
I have some questions I’d like to ask someone who has followed the Norse pagan path a bit longer than I. Should I message your page on Instagram? More less questions and more so what you think about a few things. Thanks for your time and for your videos.
Can forging a weapon be a way to honor Tyr?
I named my 7 month old Tyr
So I'm super new to all this but my fiance is about to get deployed and Tyr seems like the only war God who actually has your back rather than just wanting bloodshed even at the risk of their followers. I want so bad to reach out to him and ask to protect my fiance but idek where I'd start or how to know if he's talking to me
I would appreciate any feedback anyone can give me about a possible call from Tyr.
The other night I dreamed that I was transported to a bitter cold area of a rocky crag like location. I saw Fenrir bounded to the rocks, and a man with an ash grey beard missing his right hand trying to calm Fenrir as he growled with fury. The old man turned to face my general direction and said "something". I can't recall what the man said. I woke up shortly after.
Is this a call or am I looking too far into this?
Hi 👋🏼 great content thank you for your work. I just wanted to point out that tattooing a rune can be dangerous and requires great thought process. So perhaps advising followers to tattoo a rune especially tyr is not ideal. Blessed be 🌸
So true, state troopers need to stay out of small towns and stop hitting people for petty things in ruining lives.
Tyr actually found me and is my first and only experience with the gods and has never presented himself or made his presence know till actually today doing something I do every day I’ve literally spent the hole day researching him and have found out he’s bin around my entire life since my father was taken from us I’ve always thought it was my father guiding me letting me fail than pulling my dumb ass up and giving me more strength than ever from being a teenage drug addict to getting clean by 20 becoming a mechanic to fucking that up and falling into better paying job there’s bin always something driving me for fitness even tho I can never accomplish my goals get depressed and lose all the weight I’ve gained and always bin a massive war buff and never knew why since my family hasn’t bin in the forces since ww2 I think this maybe a start to an amazing new journey threw life with a new out look I’ve truely bin in a massive rut for the last year not sure of witch way to turn maybe that is why he has finally let his presence be known idk I’m still kind of in the disbelief state but there’s just to many things for it to be coincidental
I am a man who don't believe in I seen the first of you're Tyr videos and I watched it later on a few hrs I'm looking at grips for my 1911 hand gun and all of a sudden there is a grip set with Tiwaz that in my opinion seems very in common. I carry my 1911 daily for self defense and I took both the video popping up I'm my feed and the Tiwaz grips as a sign and bought them idk what it means but ..
and conversations with tyr tend to be very one sided but meaningful at the same time. almost like having a conversation with Phil Robertson from Duck Dynasty...if this makes since. for me at least
Tyr yea real Zeus real God
Oh you're with wisdom of Odin? Never mind then next vid
You just made a judgement on someone based purely on the opinions of others. 👍
PRAY TO CHRIST COMING FROM A COMBAT VETERAN GOD IS 1
Man, I came here wanting to believe, really but everything on here is people pretending.
