Sif

Sif is a goddess of the ground in Norse mythology with golden hair. Sif appears in the Prose Edda, which Snorri Sturluson wrote in the 13th century, the Poetic Edda, which was assembled in the 13th century from older traditional sources, and in the poetry of skalds. She is wedded to the thunder god Thor and is renowned for having golden hair in both the Poetic Edda and the Prose Edda.


Sif was frequently mentioned in Norse sagas since she was the wife of Thor, one of the Aesir's most notable characters. She is frequently mentioned briefly, hence not much is truly known about this Goddess. Although it is clear that Thor was not Ullr's father, she was supposedly his mother, which gives insight into her personality and suggests she shared some of the same promiscuous inclinations as the aforementioned Frigg.


According to the Prose Edda, Loki once shaved Sif's hair, and when Thor ordered Loki to make a golden headdress for Sif, Loki produced not only Sif's golden hair, but also five other items for other gods. The Prose Edda also refers to Sif as being Thor's and Ullr's mother. According to theories put out by academics, Sif's hair may symbolize fields of golden wheat, she may be linked to rowan, fertility, family, and/or wedlock, and there may be a reference to her role or even her name in the Old English poem Beowulf.
