lonesparkI was thinking about this while I was clearing snow off my car...
As E said, Freya seems good for seeking wealth and proudly using sex as part of an exchange/transaction.
He also mentioned Frey and I know there's a lot there but I'm not familiar enough to say much.
Frey & Gerd together seem connected with negotiation as well performing sacred marriage...
Then Loki in a couple of different myths uses sexuality/body parts to achieve things...
But I think you could argue for tenuous connections for a lot more?
Acting the part of a bride to retrieve your hammer...
Showing off your sexy legs...
Relationships sexual and otherwise that are connected with rulership...
Maybe getting pregnant in a certain way and time so you can use magic and a big plow to get some nice land?
Etc.
