Gersemi Norse Goddess, Daughter of Freyja

Gersemi is a Norse goddess who is mentioned only briefly in Old Norse literature. She is described as a “worthy woman” who is a servant and daughter of the goddess Freyja. In the Prose Edda, a collection of Norse myths, it is written that Gersemi is a “golden-tongued” goddess who is responsible for caring for Freyja’s treasures. Some scholars have speculated that Gersemi may be a personification of wealth or prosperity, as her name is derived from the Old Norse word “gersemi,” which means “treasure.” However, there is not much else known about her.
