So Before I delve into what exactly my Path is I am gonna list some quick stuff that may help you the reader help me. I enjoy discussing my path and have quite a few questions I am looking to have answered.
So here we go! I started out as a really really confused person as most of us were. I have since found that even though I am an Ecletic Neo-Pagan the Norse pantheon, culture, cosmos and mythos are home. I feel loved and respected there. I dont know how else to put it. I worship Frigg, Odin, and Thor and honor Loki. I have made sacrifices small ones and rituals to Frigga, Odin and Thor which I explain further down.
Most of my Ecletic stuff comes into play with Energy Work, and personal things. Also explained further down.

Norse Mythos, Pantheon and Culture
Gods
-Thor
Thor is my primary deity. He is the one I call on most, the one I have the strongest connection to and the one I have the deepest relationship for me. For me his role as a protector of Mankind, and sort of Enforcer for the Gods appeal to me. I believe Thor called me, and He was the first to do so, because he admires qualities in me such as my self-sacrifice for the group, loyalty and attempt to be as honorable as I can.
-Odin
Odin was originally a God I only honored however of recent my interest in learning more about Him and the feeling seems to be mutal. Part of this I believe has to do with my brother. My brother has a very nasty eye infection. Might make him blind. I thought it fitting to make blood sacrifice and fast to Odin and Frigg(as recommended by a friend) for Nine Days. Reason being is my brother's infection is in the same eye Odin gave for knowledge. Either way I am happy to have the Glad of War in my life.
-Frigg
Frigg I feel has also called me as a result of my brother's situation as it has made me realize I am a caretaker as well and love that role. I have not really developed as much of a relationship with her as I would like.
-Loki
Loki is the only God I honor currently. I say honor as I don't really know what Loki wants from me really. I do know that he is involved with me likely because I hold almost sacred the idea of creation coming from chaos, that chaos is needed to keep things going from getting stagnant.

Ecletic things
Spirits
-Ludvious
Ludvious is a Guardian Spirit of mine I believe. Well I believe that is his function I am not entirely sure what he is. He may be the spirit of a particular bear, a spirit who has taken the form of a bear or many other things. An interesting possibly is that he may be Dobiel, the Angel in charge of Persia who is associate with Bears.
Reincarnation
I believe in reincarnation. The whens, wheres, whys, whats and hows are murky. I believe that possibly the Halls of the Norse Gods are resting places or even places where one stays till its time to be reincarnated. A reward for a good life.
Totems and Such
I have three 'totems'. I use totem as I am not sure what other word to use. They are not spirits but more like concepts representing portions of my personality.
The first is the Sun Bear. For me symbolically Bears are Guardians and Keepers. Protectors. For me symbolically the Sun represents Goodness, Light, Law, Honor, Honesty, Loyalty and is connected to the Earth in that it provides energy to plants. So Sun Bear is a Guardian of those things. It is a protector of the things I hold dear. The representation of those aspects of myself. I can be honorable, honest, etc to a fault.
