Unlimited 22" Helm of Awe Gong (#AMO341)

Contrary to the way they are commonly presented in media, the peoples of Viking Age Scandinavia were not all barbarians and berserkers. Most were in fact farmers, fishers, garment makers, and the like. And among those honest workers were great poets, astrologers, storytellers, shamans, and mystics. unfortunately, little of their wisdom survived to the modern era. But most of what has is collected in The Poetic Edda, as well as in the traditions of the later medieval Norse peoples.

The Ægishjálmr (In English, The Frightener's Helmet) is mentioned in the poem Fáfnismál, likely composed around 800-1000 AD. In the tale, a man named Fáfnir murders his father to obtain his wealth and his magical ring. Fáfnir then shapeshifted into a dragon to guard his hoard. The ring's magic allowed the wearer to locate treasure, but it was cursed, and all who greedily used its power were doomed to misfortune. Fáfnir is later slain by the hero Sigurðr of the legendary Völsung family. The Frightener's Helmet is referenced by Fáfnir in the poem before his death:

"Fáfnir spoke: ‘I carried the frightener’s helmet among men while I laid upon my treasures. I thought myself stronger than all, a fiercer man I never found."

-Fáfnismál, Stanza 16

The symbol on this gong represents the Helm, and was used as part of syncretic rituals, where Pagan mysticism and Christian beliefs married together. In the historical record, it appears in the Late Medieval Period, long after the Christianity had reached the Nordic Realm, but before paganism had been lost. A time when Catholic Priests and Seiðr Völvas both occupied the frozen North. (Völvas are Seiðr sorceresses, get your mind out of the gutter!) Attested in manuscripts and books of magic in the 1500s AD, the symbol is said to cure wrath, end conflict, and protect against greed.

Add this honorable gong to your sound healing toolkit to dauntlessly smite wrath and greed the Viking way!

Bonus Fun Fact: The story of Sigurðr slaying Fáfnir appears as an important cultural tale in many different forms throughout ancient Northern Europe. Most notably, a version of the story appears in the famous Old-English epic, Beowulf. Though Beowulf's rendition attributes the killing of the dragon to Sigurðr’s father, Sigemund.

Works well to protect face
Color: Classic
Works well to protect face from sun and is not too oily. However, it needs more of tint to it and is too white.

I have been looking for this cream all my life. and found it.
Color: Classic
Very convenient packaging (I do not need a dispenser) it can withstand a long time in the sun, is almost not washed off by sea water, the skin is soft even after a shower, the consumption is economical as it is applied with a fairly light layer. Worked out every dollar 👌🏽Love it!!

Doesn't work, got burnt
Color: Classic
This is very tinted, stains what it touches. I reapplied 3 times throughout a 3 hour span while at a beach in Florida and got burnt, particularly around swimsuit straps (despite being extra careful to get under the straps). It goes on pretty smoothly and eventually clear but would not recommend due to lack of sun protection.

Not as great as I hoped
Color: Classic, Color: Classic
Bought because of high praise from esthetician on social media. Overall, not worth the price. Pros- Did work as a sunscreen. Had no reaction or breakouts from it. Socially conscious brand/product. Cons- -Very thick and paste like. Hard to spread around dry areas. I would prefer a lighter formula. -Even though it is tinted (got the classic) and I am pale skinned this made me look washed out. Wore it in my face one day and people kept asking me if I was "feeling okay". - When I wore it on my body it would get tinted sunscreen on my clothes and was very difficult to get the color out. I wear sunscreen all year around in any weather and I would only recommend this if you are going to the beach/pool so you don't get stains on nicer clothes. -

Great texture, spreads easily, matte finish. Beautiful!
Color: Classic
Love this sunscreen! It glides over the skin, doesn't leave a white cast even on my brown skin, and it stays put. I love the texture. It's similar to paula's choice resist mineral sunscreen but a higher spf. I use it on my face too.
