In Norse mythology, Lofn is the goddess of forbidden loves – any romantic love that is forbidden or frowned upon by family, clan, or society. While she may not change the minds of the disapproving, she gives star-crossed lovers permission to find a way to be together and create their own hearth where the vision is more tolerant. She is also a goddess of games.

Today she is invoked by lgbt people, as well as those who have nonstandard relationship styles. Her symbols are keys and Lavender is her flower (Lofnarblóm in Icelandic means “Lofn’s flower”). She is also one of goddess’ Frigg’s handmaidens, just like Sjofn, goddess of affection, whom she is very close with. (picture)
