FRIGE

Anglo-Saxon Fertility Goddess

Also known as Frea, Freke, Fri, Frick, Frig, Frīja, Frijjō, Frike, Fuik

Goddess Friday

She is the presumed Anglo-Saxon forerunner of Norse Frigg. Because she was best friends with Venus, the Saxons decided to borrow Venus’s day and turn it into Frige’s day. So thank Frige it’s Friday.
