(From research but also from my own workings with him. This isn’t meant to be strictly historical this is more for pagans wanting to work with him. There will be a lot of UPG or SPG)
A small summary of Freyr…or, Frey, Yngvi-Freyr and many other names.
He is a Norse god who was heavily worshipped as a fertility god, as well as a god of good weather good harvest and kingship.
Freyr and his twin sister Freya along with their Father Njörðr were originally from the group of gods that rivaled the Æsir called the Vanir.
Not much is told about their time with the Vanir though, their story mainly starts with them moving to Asgard as a deal made between the two rivaling groups of gods.
Freyr has a wife, a giantess named Gerd who he cares for deeply.
He is a fierce protector of women and it is even said that when he is around weapons literally won’t work on women. Swords would break against their skin.
He is also the ruler of Alfheim land of the elves.
Freyr is mentioned in the Prose Edda and Poetic Edda multiple times.
My personal experience with him:
I was searching for a deity to reach out to after Skadi left and she’d given me a message to work with a deity who had a warmer energy. I think she already had Freyr in mind.
He really has been a warm energy. He feels like laying down in tall grass and making flower crowns with friends while you braid each others hair. He also feels like the hot sweat of a hard day of work, and feeling happy after you’ve done something you’re proud of.
He’s helped me with a lot of my struggles as a transgender man. I worry often about the features of me that are still “too feminine” and he has been there for me and helped teach me the ways to embrace the feminine sides of me. He’s such a positive influence and he shows up some of the most often in my meditations.
Offerings for Freyr
Wildflowers/local flowers
Flower crowns
Bread
Alcohol (mead, beer)
Images of boar (he has a golden boar Gullinbursti)
Ship in a bottle/ship imagery (he has a ship Skíðblaðnir that can shrink and fit in his pocket)
Crystals that represent fertility
Citrine
Phallic imagery has also always been a very popular offering/way of worshipping him
Candle colors: white, gold, yellow, green, red
Non physical offerings:
Go on a nature walk/(disability friendly version watch a YouTube video of a nature walk or a virtual tour of a national park)
Make flower crowns
Make a filling meal with lots of fruit and veggies and grains
Write him poetry
Meditate together
Protect and stand up for women
Gardening/learning about plants
Working out (I don’t personally do this for him since I have 3 other deities I already dedicate workouts to but he is good for this as well!)
All in all I think Freyr is a fantastic deity to have around. His energy is warm and so is he. I’m sure he can be very serious at times as well when he needs to be. But in my experience I’ve just felt only comfort when I go to him. Him and Thor are like the sunshine boys of my personal pantheon.
If you feel like he’s reaching out to you it could come just from having an interest in him that you can’t shake, or seeing things associated to him often. If you feel like he’s for you, reach out to him through your preferred divination method or clairsense to confirm and see if he truly is wanting to work together. Or just set up a little altar for him and have a place in your practice for worshiping him if that feels more correct for you 💛

enough toxic masculinity I'm ready for salubrious mexicanity. I'm ready for a social movement that encourages (esp straight, cis) men to indulge in things that make them more joyful, emotionally healthy, and help them strengthen not core muscles but core compassionate communication skills.
