Aegishjalmur Incense Stick Holder

Among the symbols used by the Scandinavians there is one that was much represented on ships and shields... the symbol Aegishjalmur or Helm of Awe.

Shown here on a stick-type incense holder accompanied by runes to reinforce its power.

The Helm of Awe means a lot to the Vikings. One of the most powerful magical runic symbols used by the Vikings was Aegishjalmur, also known as the helmet or helm of fear or terror that gave Viking warriors protection, but also courage and strength.
