Working With The Gods : Gerda
Gerda is a Vanir goddess and the wife of the fertility god Freyr. Gerda is of giant blood, an etin woman. She is quiet and introverted. She is not the type of deity that likes to gather a lot of people, nor does she like a crowd of followers. She will likely to work only with a very small group of people, sometimes even just one single person. So if a group of people wants to call upon her, she will not come so willingly. She is a goddess linked to the earth, as such, she prefers colours that remind her of her beloved land. Greens and browns are a favorite colours, but also greys and purples. If you want to make an offer to her or when calling upon her to make spiritual work, don't forget to have near by freshly-cut herbs. Also burn or boil a few, the scent will certainly catch her attention.
Gerda Will only appear to you when there is no need at all, when you have probably got over the problems you were facing and those might have been the reason why you called upon her in the first place. When she comes, she will advise you and give you a certain amount of information that you probably needed to hear. Gerda is also the patron of the women who make abortions, because that is a very difficult thing to be handled and it might bring complications to the body. If that is your problem or the problem of the person you want to help, bath yourself or the woman you are trying to help, in salt water first, before calling upon Gerda. Also add some herbs to the bath. Gerda will certainly seem calm to you, very quiet. Be respectful when she comes. I should point that she doesn't work with male spirit workers, only female.
Working with the Gods : Gerda
Gerda is Freyr's Wife, she is an etin. She has a more quiet personality, she doesn't like crowds that much, unless Freyr is present, she will not come to a gathering of people, she only comes to be with him in those moments. She is modest, preferring long gowns that cover from neck to
wrists to floor, usually in dark brownish earth tones or greys or dusky purples, and likes having a
veil that she can pull around her face if it is sunny. She speaks quietly according to her personality, and she is serious and
introverted. She likes having fresh-cut herbs on a table next to her, rather than flowers. Like all etins, she prefers the harder
stuff when it comes to alcohol.
She will onlu appear in a time, when there is the need to work with her by a single person only or a very small group of people who might need her help, advice and information. She is the patron of the women who make aborstions, because that is a very difficult thing to be handled and it might bring complications to the body. If this is
the situation, have the woman in question bathe first in salt water, probably with several herbs
that Gerda will dictate. Have a tea of the same herbs ready for her to administer to the woman,
with more salt water.
Gerda might seem calm, very quiet, but be carful, she is a giantess, remember that and be respectful, or you may be in trouble. Also, she isn't interested in working with people who are not female.
