30 Days of Frigga Day 16 Culture

How do you think this deity represents the values of their pantheon and cultural origins?

A large part of Frigga's work is her role as Goddess of spinning and fiber arts. This is a huge role to a people of a northern land where the winters are cold and harsh and people need warm clothes to survive. Raising wool and flax to make these clothes meant that the crops and animals needed to be well tended AND that the women needed to be skilled and blessed by this Goddess to create clothes to keep them all alive and well.
