Nordic mythology

Hilda was one of the valkyrias. She had the power to revive the dead from the battlefield, thus maintaining the constant struggle between Hedin and Högni.


(153) Hilda combines the personal view point (Cybele region) with the tempting food (area of the orbital piercing from Jupiter toward the main belt).

However, initially there are doubts or mistrust with regard to accept as valid certain source of nourish (food, person, relationship or work), and must insist and find ways to prove the contrary to overcome prejudice (3:2 resonance with Jupiter), like in the movies "Pure" (2002) and "Changing Lanes" (2002).
