HELM OF AWE OR AEGISHJALMUR

Helm of Awe or Aegishjalmur, which literally means "Helmet of terror" is one of the most powerful symbols in Norse mythology, offering many kinds of assistance, guidance through a storm & protecting the wielder in general from magickal or physical attack including the abuse of power.. It’s a symbol of protection & defence of your "Self", whether that be physically or mentally. The ancient Scandinavians believed that the effect of this symbol was based on an unusual principle of influencing the enemy. Just imagine, they are trying to attack you with the most evil intentions. The power of this intention is great & is backed up by an appropriate energy setting. This powerful aggressive bundle of energy falls into the vortex of Aegishjalmur. Rotating, the vortex returns energy to the outside. Thus, your enemy gets not just everything that he has planned against you, but also loses the ability to act. Aegishjalmur is designed to drive the enemy into a panic-stricken, paralyzing fear.
More peaceful meaning of Aegishjalmur, in the absence of the need to frighten enemies on the battlefield, is the concentration of the wearer's own energy & the reflection of extraneous influences on him from outside. This function is important for energy-depleted people — the amulet is able to literally breathe life into a person who currently needs it. Receiving such a concentrated energy charge, the carrier regains the will to live & feels the strength to move on & change his life for the better. The helmet of terror gives you the ability to see all previously unseen problems & conflicts, resolving which a person makes the right decisions & thereby brings order to his life.
In addition, Aegishjalmur can contribute to the development & accumulation of physical & spiritual power, accelerate the reaction, if a person at this stage requires it. But the most common use is to protect against negativity. To do this, it is enough to use a 4x-final symbol as a protective cross. The simplest one. It consists of four basic runes Algiz. It is designed to reflect bad energy directed at the owner. This is probably the only option that can be used on a daily basis. This is what you can wear as a tattoo, but with caution, runic tattoos are far from harmless. Most have two opposite meanings. Algiz reversed on your body could change the meaning to "you are not protected & therefore vulnerable, trespassers". The straight position means "life" & reversed - "death". Algiz rune in Aegishjalmur is neutral when correctly done.
Aegishjalmur reflects three levels of consciousness:
Center, intersection of rays. The person himself, the "I".
Rays, the straight parts, up to branches. The human psyche.
Edge, branches. The outside world.
Each of these levels, a person must take control, realize their nature, all spheres of consciousness & life. Only then would he be invincible. However, this may take a lifetime, or it may not be even enough. Runes & symbols are addressed to other worlds, but at the same time changing the reality known to us.They do not give a person something that is not in him, but release hidden reserves, establish contact with the higher forces & energy of the universe.
You can activate Aegishjalmur using the classic futhark with the use of breathing practices or blood. Very important at the time of activation is your emotional state. The amulet can be activated for a certain period of time required to complete the task. After that, the amulet must be removed. When activating, the goal must be formulated as clearly as possible in order to avoid distortion of the operation of the amulet.
You may think that it is a good idea to get the Aegishjalmur tattoo, thinking that the magic symbol applied will protect you from bad influences always & everywhere. This is a mistake. Constant wearing of a sign will bring harm as the main function of the symbol's composition is to prevent the penetration of someone else's energy to the owner. It turns out that such a tattoo will redirect energy constantly. At the same time, the energy will not necessarily be negative. Kindness, love will also reflect the sign, especially incorrectly drawn. In addition, the symbol transforms & distorts intentions, even good ones, so they will not reach the author in their original form & can do harm.
