This handmade Norse pagan ritual altar combines genuine animal bones with the protective symbolism of the Helm of Awe. Built from pine wood, the altar features blackened deer rib bones, two coyote jawbones and two raccoon jawbones. Each bone is individually secured to the wooden frame with black cord.
The Helm of Awe, also known as Ægishjálmur, is an Icelandic magical stave associated with protection, strength and the ability to instill fear in one's enemies. The altar features an engraved Helm of Awe on its base and a red painted wooden cutout of the stave on top. Together, these symbols establish the altar's purpose as a dedicated space for protective rituals and spiritual defense.
A black metal incense burner hangs from chains within the center of the altar. This burner provides a place to burn loose incense during cleansing, banishing and protection rituals. Smoke can be incorporated into ritual practices to cleanse the surrounding space, carry offerings to the gods or accompany the invocation of protective forces.
The arrangement of bones surrounding the incense burner creates an enclosed ritual space. This altar can serve as a permanent location for household protection rituals, offerings to the Norse gods and devotional practices involving the Helm of Awe.
