🥄 This time, to awaken Ullr, we’re bringing out the big spoons because a few flurries just isn’t enough. For this ritual to make it snow, all you need to do is stash a cold spoon under your pillow (and better yet, take a nap on it). Hey, we said we’re willing to try anything to make the North Shore into a snowy paradise!
Which snowfall ritual have you tried? Tell us in the comments. ❄️
We were lucky to get some flurries over the weekend, but we want more! ⛷️
We’re still trying to get Ullr’s attention with our snowfall rituals, and today we’re wearing a colorful sock on our left foot to bring on the blizzards. There are lots of superstitions to get the snow flying – see them all here: https://odysseyresorts.com/winter-is-upon-us/
When the big snow hits, what’s the first activity you’re going to do? Tell us below!
Dreaming of skiing, snowshoeing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, and all the winter fun you just aren’t getting yet this season? Making you want to scream? Us too!
We’re continuing our rituals for Norse god, Ullr, who could help us out with a few inches of snow. This round of superstitions includes screaming into a freezer to awaken Ullr and get the snow flying 🤞 See all of the rituals here: https://odysseyresorts.com/winter-is-upon-us/
Who knew that to get a snowy winter you’d just have to ask? At Odyssey, we’re asking Ullr (“you-ler”), the Norse God of Snow, to share a few flakes in the next week or so.
We’re pulling a few rituals out of our hats – our best dance moves here, a little throwing ice cubes in the toilet there – to hurry Ullr and the snow storms up. Anything for snow, right? 🌨️
