Vegvisir

The Vegvisir (pronounced “veh-gwee-sir”) was believed to be used as a compass when navigating in the foggy oceans. The name of the symbol, with “veg” meaning way and “visir” meaning view, may also symbolize guidance in life.

It is thought that the Vegvisir was used by sailors to help them navigate their way through rough weather. It is often used as a symbol of protection from storms and bad weather.

The Vegvisir was often etched on a piece of wood, with the lines representing different directions. The symbol itself is said to have been carved into the prow of boats, so that they could always find their way home.

The Vegvisir is a magical symbol from Norse mythology that will keep you safe when traveling through unfamiliar territory. This enamel pin is based on the original Icelandic symbol, which was believed to be able to guide you safely if lost, or lead home if lost at sea.

This pin is a fun, wearable take on a famous Old Norse symbol. The vegvisir (clearing weather) allows you to find your way home. The pin measures 3 cm, and attaches to clothing with a metal butterfly clutch.
