What Is Wyrd? (The Web of Fate)

In the old faith of the Norse and Germanic peoples, fate was not a straight line — it was a web. Known as Wyrd, this vast and living pattern connects all beings, past and present, through every choice, thought, and deed. Wyrd is not something that controls us; it is something we help weave each day through our actions and our honour.

To understand Wyrd is to understand that life is not random — it is meaningful. Every thread you spin adds to the great tapestry of becoming. The gods, the ancestors, and we ourselves are bound within this web, shaping and being shaped by it. This is the old wisdom of the North — that fate and responsibility are one and the same.
