THE WEIRD & THE WONDERFUL | Starchildren
our wonder of the stars is bone-sunk; we’ve been thinking and dreaming and watching and watching and watching since the beginning of time, and we looked for so long that we started making connections. we played a celestial game of connect-the-dots; trying to find order in something so vast and trying to show that the stars are in everything and everything is in the stars.

NORSE MYTHOLOGY MEME
↳ [3/5] Favorite Goddesses – N O T TIn Norse mythology, Nótt is night personified, grandmother of Thor. In both the Poetic Edda, compiled in the 13th century from earlier traditional sources, and the Prose Edda, written in the 13th century by Snorri Sturluson, Nótt is listed as the daughter of a figure by the name of Nörvi (with variant spellings) and is associated with the horse Hrímfaxi, while the Prose Edda features information about Nótt’s ancestry, including Her three marriages. Nótt’s third marriage was to the god Dellingr and this resulted in their son Dagr, the personified day (although some manuscript variations list Jörð as Dellingr’s wife and Dagr’s mother instead). As a proper noun, the word nótt appears throughout Old Norse literature.
Greetings fellow Earthians, we have a project we’re all very excited about to share with you all. We love space and poetry but especially the combination of the two so we decided to boldly go where no group of space-lovers have gone before…(probably false, but I wasn’t going to pass up making that joke).
We want to collaborate with poets on tumblr, and beyond, to publish an anthology of celestial poetry, or in other words, works about space or works that reference space in some way. This is a baby project as of now so these are just its first little steps. But if a lot of people are interested, we’re going to open it up to submissions and talk about fundraising for the publishing costs.
Please fill out this short survey so we can gauge your interest!
Please reblog and tell your friends who might be interested in submitting to spread the word. And let us know what you think in the survey or our askbox!
