It is usually represented as a hammer, although it was originally an axe or club. It is made by the dwarves, or, according to Snorri Sturluson&#8217;s 13th-century prosaic Edda, by the elf Sindri over a dispute with the god Loki over who could create the most wonderful weapon for the gods.  <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><\/i><span style=\"color: #252525; font-family: sans-serif;\"><i>Thor&#8217;s hammer is undoubtedly one of the most popular ancient mythological objects today, basically thanks to Marvel&#8217;s Thor comic book and viking and epic metal bands.  <\/i><\/span><i>Reproductions of Mj\u00f6llnir are now sold in jewelry stores and worn by a variety of users: scholars, devotees or sympathizers of Norse mythology and ancient Scandinavian history; lovers of Scandinavian heavy metal music; acolytes of the Norse neo-pagan religions (\u00c1satr\u00fa, Irminism, Odinism, etc.) among which Thor, the strongest (physically) among the gods, is the protector of humanity in perpetual conflict with the evil forces of the giants.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><strong>Thor<\/strong><br \/>\nOrigin: Germanic god of thunder, storm and fertility, protects humans and gods from giants (in Old Germanic Donar or Donner).<br \/>\nSymbols: Dorn (the rune) is the symbol of Thor, the powerful god with his hammer Mj\u00f2llnir. It represents the moment of action. He is the strongest of all gods and men. And the god of storm and weather (for navi- gers) and fertility (for farmers), the great protector of Midgard.<\/p>\n<p>Meanings as talisman or amulet: For sincerity, fidelity, trustworthiness, strength, reasonableness, and impulsive acting and spontaneity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Thor&#8217;s Hammer<\/strong><br \/>\nOrigin: Thor&#8217;s hammer was forged by Sindri the dwarf. Its handle is too short because Brock, Sindri&#8217;s brother who operated the bellows, was stung by a horsefly and became distracted, interrupting the flow of air for a few moments. There is virtually nothing that can resist the force of the hammer. It always returns to the one who hurled it, and is therefore the symbol of the indestructible and inexhaustible life force of nature. It paralyzes the wearer&#8217;s enemies.<\/p>\n<p>It is the strongest Nordic symbol. Symbols: Thor&#8217;s hammer is the symbol found most often on runic stones and inscriptions. And also represented often on rocks and especially on graves to ensure the repose of the deceased. It is worn as a symbol of faith in the ancient gods.<\/p>\n<p>Thor&#8217;s hammer was worn by pagans as an amulet as a sign of pr\u00f2- head against the Christian custom of carrying crosses.<br \/>\nMeanings as a talisman or amulet: Defends against malignant attacks of any kind. It protects against danger and evil and provides powerful support and a free flow of energy.<\/p>\n<div id=\"description\" class=\"textstyles text-word-wrap info-panel\">\n<div id=\"description-collapse\" class=\"collapse collapse-auto-toggle-xs in\" aria-expanded=\"true\">\n<p>Size: 36 cm x 28 cm<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>Mjollnir<\/strong> &#8211; <strong>Hammer of Thor <\/strong> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":49565,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[925],"product_tag":[4660,4875,4659],"class_list":{"0":"post-49569","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-objects-to-hang","7":"product_tag-hammer","8":"product_tag-mjollnir-en","9":"product_tag-thor-en","11":"first","12":"instock","13":"shipping-taxable","14":"purchasable","15":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.seleneshop.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/49569","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.seleneshop.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.seleneshop.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.seleneshop.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=49569"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.seleneshop.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/49565"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.seleneshop.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=49569"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.seleneshop.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=49569"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.seleneshop.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=49569"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.seleneshop.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=49569"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
