Niding Pole

Out of curiosity, have you ever made a nidhing pole for your own personal uses, Pse?

When I was in my younger days and lacked maturity, yes. Yourself?

It's been a long while since I've had one up. I do make small, wooden ones and place them to guard my land though. But considering most of my workings are with spirits and the wights, I don't like them to be too close to where I work.

That makes sense- I find small ones are more convenient, especially for handling, as I am not incredibly tall.

I think the last one I made is down in the basement of my apartment here in Sweden. Generally, I used it to keep unwanted visitors away.

Thank you for clarifying it a little more for me considering I have never heard of some of the names in that spell.

No problem, Hempr.

An informative post- as always! I enjoyed reading this. I have to say, I knew nothing of a 'niding pole' before.

I had no idea they could be that small, i had always assumed they were meant to be a grand thing.

Thank you, Incognita.

I suppose you learn something new every day, Asatruar. :)
