Attributes Odin can be recognised by his hat and cloak, long beard, and only one eye (reminding somewhat of Gandalf from Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings bar this last aspect). His spear Gungnir is one of his main attributes and seems to have been present in Viking Age belief, as hinted at by miniature spearheads found throughout south and central Sweden.
Odin Recreation is a Colorado based company dedicated to developing and supporting winter sport opportunities in Mesa County and the greater Western Slope. Our initial goal is to develop a winter sports venue at the base of, and in cooperation with, Powderhorn Mountain Resort on the Grand Mesa.
Some other attributes are the ring Draupnir, which drips to form eight new rings every nine nights, and the horse Sleipnir, which is mentioned early on in Old Norse and is set apart by the somehow efficient total of eight legs. Likewise, Odin’s two ravens, Huginn (‘thought’) and Muninn (‘wisdom’) are very old mythical elements already well-established – proven by their appearance on ornaments and rune stones - before c. They fly around the world gathering news, and when they return, they sit on Odin's shoulder and whisper their tidings into his ear. The Prose has Odin say: Huginn and Muninn hover each day The wide earth over; I fear for Huginn lest he fare not back, - Yet watch I more for Muninn.
(Gylfaginning, 38) Due to this Odin is also known as ‘the raven-god’. If you have ever seen a (movie version of a) battlefield after the action has died down, it becomes clear how Odin’s ravens tie in with his role as god of war and connection with the dead; a battlefield is not just a feast for crows but also a feast for ravens. Other attributes are the Valkyries - who are likely represented by small, female figurines sometimes holding a drinking horn, indicating worship of Odin - and his wolves Geri and Freki.
He might also be linked with the eagle and the snake, and his potential function as shaman means the staff is highlighted, too. Myths involving Odin In line with how shaky our knowledge of Norse mythology as it was in the Viking Age really is, our limited source material only has three gods headlining in more than one known myth; Odin is one of them, alongside Thor. Most likely, we only have the skeleton of the stories the pre-Christian would have told and believed about these gods.
Some of these bones are as follows.
PXR activators are used to treat pruritus in chronic inflammatory liver diseases such as primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC). The aims of this study were to determine whether PXR activators could have an additional benefit of inhibiting inflammation in the liver, and determine whether cyclosporin A – which more effectively prevents PBC recurrence in transplanted patients than FK506 – is a PXR activator. In SJL/J mice (which have constitutively high levels of hepatic portal tract inflammatory cell recruitment), feeding a PXR activator inhibited inflammation, TNFα and Il-1α mRNA expression in SJL/J-PXR +/+, but not SJL/J-PXR −/−. Monocytic cells – a major source of inflammatory mediators such as TNFα – expressed the PXR and PXR activators inhibited endotoxin-induced NF-κB activation and TNFα expression. PXR activation also inhibited endotoxin-stimulated TNFα secretion from liver monocytes/macrophages isolated from PXR +/+ mice, but not from cells isolated from PXR −/− mice.
