An artistic depiction of the Norse goddesses Frigg and Freyja.

Clue explainedFact checked

Frigg and Freyja are goddesses in Norse mythology, though they’re distinct figures. Frigg is associated with Odin and with marriage and motherhood; Freyja is linked with love, fertility, and the magical practice called seiðr. Their names and stories survive in medieval Norse writings, which preserve a rich cast of gods and goddesses rather than a single uniform mythology.
