Two powerful symbols in one design: the wings of the Valkyries and Vegvisir, the rune compass. Vegvisir (Icelandic: Vegvísir) is a symbol of Nordic mythology for protection and leadership.

Design featuring a Viking Shieldmaiden. In the background is the Norse Vegvisir compass Wayfinder symbol. A Shield Maiden is the female warrior equivalent of the male Vikings. The most famous of them being Lagertha. According to the legend, Lagertha was a Norwegian Viking shieldmaiden who married the famous Norse chieftain Ragnar Lothbrok. Vegvisir translates into “That Which Shows the Way” in Icelandic. In the Huld Manuscript, it says this about the Vegvisir: “If this sign is carried, one will never lose one’s way in storms or bad weather, even when the way is not known.”

We are all shieldmaidens at heart! You'll recognize Lagertha's shield ;)

What you are and what you can be is your wyrd - your fate. Trust in your fate. It will not lead you astray. If destiny decrees that you will be a warrior, so you shall be.
