Arith Härger | Eir - The Old Norse Goddess of Medicine @ArithH%C3%A4rger | Uploaded December 2021 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
Eir is often considered the Old Norse goddess of Medicine, or so Snorri Sturluson told us: "best of physicians". Even though not much is known about Eir, we can still draw some conclusions based on other sources. Without a doubt, Eir is an Old Norse religious element connected to the sacred feminine divine energy of creation.

I'll recommend some good sources on medicine related to Northern Europe in the Middle Ages:
John Henry Grafton Grattan (1976) Anglo-Saxon magic and medicine ;
"Medieval Scandinavia: An Encyclopedia (Encyclopedias of the Middle Ages)" (1993), you can find a chapter here by Øivind Larsen entitled "Medicine and Medical Treatment" ;
"Sisters and Workers in the Middle Ages" (1989), in this book you can find an interesting chapter entitled "Women's Medical Practice and Healthcare in Medieval Europe" by Monica Green ;
Neil Price (2019 - revised version) The Viking Way: Magic and Mind in Late Iron Age Scandinavia, where he speaks about henbane and other herbs.
