Þat er orðit: So Mote it Be in the Norse Pagan Tradition

“Þat er orðit” is Old Norse and roughly translates to “So it is done” or “It has become”—a powerful declaration that something has come to pass, sealed by fate and action. It carries the weight of Wyrd (destiny), affirming that what has been spoken is now woven into reality.It functions similarly to how one might say “So mote it be” in modern magickal traditions, signifying that the spell, oath, or declaration has taken effect.
