Seidkona is a term from Norse mythology that refers to a female practitioner of seidr, a form of magic associated with fate and divination. These women were believed to possess the ability to see into the future and influence events through their magical practices. Seidkona were often depicted as wise and powerful figures within their communities. In ancient Norse society, seidkona were respected for their skills, but they could also face suspicion and fear due to their connection with the supernatural. Their practices were often linked to the goddess Freyja, who was known for her mastery of seidr and her role in love, fertility, and war.
