To start, I know I might step on some toes by asking this and I am really sorry about that, but this questions been kind of troubling me for a couple of days now. So I've been working with Odin with three months now, and I really have started to trust him. I do research and read UPGs and some of Snorri's writings in balance, which has worked for me just fine. But I've had experienced with sexual assault, and do sometimes have trouble trusting people, so you can imagine how reading about the rape of Rindr so that she would have Vali might have, to put it lightly, brought me some discomfort. I've talked to others about it, but the most they have been able to do is give some lame excuses and weak attempts to justify Odin's actions. I really do like working with him, but it just hurts a little (?) because that's a bit of a raw spot for me. So, what I'm wondering is, how do you guys deal with this side lf the All-Father?
