for a good yule, eat to defeat the Pïemungandr.
Sure, this could just be a silly seasonal food post, but then NorsePlay never squanders a Norse Lore learning opportunity: There's a scientific overlay that in the Norse Cosmology the world serpent Jörmungandr possibly represents gravity which functions to encircle & thus hold our Midgard together (much like this pie crust), while his end-of-days electrical target Thor represents electromagnetism . This physics-speculative NorsePlay is from part of Manly P Hall's lecture On Norse Myth , noted esotericist & author of The Secret Teachings Of All Ages (1928 CE). Thus the inescapable dual fate of Thor & the Serpent could perhaps be not just archenemies targeting each other throughout time, but a bond of universal forces competing & acting upon one another. So this winter holiday be Thor, and save the Norse Níuverse by eating all the pie. Plus it'll be good prepwork for your time at the endless feasting tables of Valhalla .
