No you're right, I was mistaken, it's the Ægishjálmur--which is still pretty common in neo-nazi tattoos along with other norse ward symbology

Overall, a hit or miss symbol if you see it, overall just recommend avoid using it if you aren't familiar with it!

Next is the Ægishjálmur, or Helm of Awe. This is actually a more modern occultic symbol from Iceland! The name itself STEMS from Myth but the symbol is occult. Rarely co-opted.

Or, well, I should say it's a bastardized version of the Ægishjálmur that has a bunch of bullshit runes around it, but like, quelle surprise lmao

Un vegvisir no es un símbolo nazi -ni siquiera se lo apropiaron-, lo mismo pasa con el aegishjalmur o con las ruedas de runas (que, en realidad, no tienen ningún significado en su mayoría). Que una runa se la apropiasen los nazis -su versión de esa runa o la versión armana- no convierte a alguien

The aegishjalmur there kinda sticks out, not gonna lie

Playing AC Valhalla and shaking my head whenever stave churches, stone castles, oversized Roman ruins, vikings with tattoos, leather armor, dual-wielding axes, flails, Aurora Borealis, Norse literacy, the Vegvísir, or the Ægishjálmur shows up so people know I disagree with the inaccuracies

Was interesting watching this Jackson Crawford video that brings up the concept of the Ægishjálmur being some manner of force field rather than a literal helmet which reminded me of this old sketch I made trying to tackle that very subject

Should anyone need such a resource, Justin is a very helpful historian of Icelandic magic and will point you in the direction of the most authentic symbols. Too many fakes floating around online!

Bought this in Iceland several years ago...pretty apropos for our current situation. Perhaps this doesn't get packed away with the Christmas decorations.

Just now noticing, the tiny little picture (it's not a "rebus")... oh, I forget the terminology!
As in "❄️" means "snow."
But (trust me, this is going somewhere, I think) the "❄️" thingy looks very similar to the Icelandic."Ægishjálmur" symbol.
You young techno folks can look it up!

Samedi, j'ai reçu le cadeau que j'ai gagné au concourstwitter de @freyja-s-faeries.bsky.social !
En ouvrant l'enveloppe, je tombe sur une nouvelle enveloppe bien décorée...
Allez, on l'ouvre ?

5 - Beaucoup de symboles nordiques récupérés par les suprémacistes blancs et néo-nazis servent de « patchs moraux » (Ægishjálmur), mais ils sont aussi des marqueurs idéologiques destinés à être diffusés vers l'extérieur. Le drapeau d'AZOV comporte le soleil noir, symbole créé par les SS pour les SS.

'The Helm of Awe, or Helm of Terror (Old Norse: Ǿgishjalmr, Icelandic: Ægishjálmur), is an object in Norse mythology relating to the hoard protected by the worm Fáfnir and subsequently the name of a modern Icelandic magical stave. 1/2

i find solace in the fact that most Nordic symbols that have been co-opted by fascists, like the Valknut and Ægishjálmur aren’t actually symbols from the viking age and were invented in modern times while claiming to be powerful symbols from antiquity

I think it's meant to be an Ægishjálmur.

Looks like something called a Vegvísir (I searched up "rune cicrle" and it matches) which has a related article with the expected connection:

Live concert with Rotting Christ, Satyricon, Behemoth, streamed from Poland, great camera and audio, joining from my sofa, knitting, in a Norwegian forest with mountains all around. Did not expect streamed concerts to be this good.

And a reminder that Ægishjálmur is NOT cooped by nazis do not let them fucking have it
