Aegishjalmur - The Helm of Awe Theme
The Helm of Awe or Helm of Terror is an Icelandic magical stave (galdrastafir) known from Icelandic folk-magic.
\"The theme was intended as a somewhat dark theme. I wanted to give the user a gritty and tactile feel of dark Norse power.\" - Ræveðis
Originally said to instil terror in your enemy, when drawn between the brows, with spit or ones own blood. This is a confrontational galdr, meant to help the user overcome an enemy or opposition.
In modern esoteric use, The Helm of Awe is often used to provide physical, mental and spiritual protection to the user.
\"The Helm of Awe I wore before the sons of men in defence of my treasure; amongst all, I alone was strong, I thought to myself, for I found no power a match for my own.\"

About Galdrastafir:
-------------------
Graphical Galdr staves, also known by their Icelandic name 'Galdrastafir' or general Scandinavian name 'Galderstave' (plural), are magical sigils used in Norse folkmagic.
Often used in pagan and heathen practices such as Asatru and Germanic Paganism, many people claim the usage of these designs to date back to the Viking Age.
Although it's known that the Vikings used magic in several forms, such as Seidr and Galdr, many of these designs are in fact of much younger origin. In fact, most of the Norse galdr staves were created though the 16th and the 17th century, with strong influences from 15th and 16th century Renaissance Magic and Witchcraft.
This however does not take away their importance in modern heathen practices, as they are firmly building upon the Norse traditions, and often very firmly connected with both Norse mythology as well as the runes and Norse folklore. The Galdrastafir are a historic fusion of traditions, building on a solid Nordic foundation, that spun off on its own.

About the author:
-----------------
Ræveðis is a Danish artist and graphic designer known especially for his artistic rendering of occult symbols and dark imagery. Ræveðis has been active on the Scandinavian occult scene since the late 1990's, and is known for his strong foundation in the Scandinavian folk-traditions and occult practices.
Although not directly connected with any particular religious practice, Ræveðis' work often resonates with people within both the Asatru- and Wicca community, making it appealing to Pagans, Heathens, Witches and those who work with related esoteric practices.
Ræveðis' work with Galdrastafir draws on both a knowledge of Runes, as well as several methods of coding and ciphering. Apart from being created to be aesthetically pleasing, his work is also known to contain hidden riddles and meanings. These are often not commonly visible even to those familiar with his work.
