I just found some new info that might be helpful.

Vala - means "chosen one" 131


"Name asteroids"
also if your name is retrograde - there may be some difficulty or delay in the expression of your identity or if in someone else chart there may be an expression of his or her identity in regard to you.
Also the name asteroids will show the relationship between two people

Example : if your name falls their on the sun moon midpoint then take a guess how they might play out in your life?

I checked mine

Vala in 14'07 Scorpio in 3rd
conjunct Iris in 13'14 Scorpio in 3rd
conjunct Stargazer in 12'40 Scorpio in 3rd
trine Sumeria in 13'48 Cancer in 11th
sextile Ascendant in 13'27 Virgo
quincunx Isis in 13'06 Aries R in 8th


Iris is named after the messenger of the Gods in Greek mythology

Sumer is an ancient country in Mesopotamia(ancient Iraq), and was one of the oldest civilizations.


I checked for other meanings in regards to Vala


Vala can refer to:

* Völva, a priestess in Norse mythology or a Scandinavian earth spirit
* Numonius Vala, an Ancient Roman family name, or any of the men of that name
* Vala (Middle-earth), an angelic being in J. R. R. Tolkien's fiction
* Vala (Vedic), a demon or a stone cavern in the Rigveda
* Vala (programming language), a programming language targeting GNOME's gobject system
* 131 Vala, an Asteroid
* Vala Mal Doran, a fictional character in the television show Stargate SG-1
* Vala, or The Four Zoas, a poem by William Blake
* Vala GSM, mobile operator in Kosovo
* Vala (Persian) (Persian: والا , first name (male), surname
* The Vala, an American Melodic Metal band http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vala

I like this one the most:


The Völvas and their male counterparts were referred to by many names. The Old Norse word vǫlva means "wand carrier" or "carrier of a magic staff",[1] and it continues Proto-Germanic *walwōn, which is derived from a word for "wand" (ON vǫlr).[2] Vala, on the other hand, is a literary form based on Völva.[2]

A spákona (with an Old English cognate, spćwīfe) is a "prophetess", from the the ON word spá refers to prophesying and it continues Proto-Germanic *spah- and the PIE root *(s)peḱ, and it is consequently related to Latin speccio ("sees") and Sanskrit spáçati and páçyati ("sees", etc.).[3]

A practitioner of seiđr is a seiđkona (female) or a seiđmađr (male).

Völvas practiced seiđr, spá and galdr, practices which encompassed shamanism, sorcery, prophecy and other forms of indigenous magic. Seiđr in particular had connotations of ergi (unmanliness), although there were male practitioners.

Historical and mythological depictions of Völvas show that they were held in high esteem and they were held to possess such powers that even the father of the gods, Odin himself, consulted a Völva for what the future had in store for the gods. Such an account is preserved in the Völuspá which roughly translates to "prophecy of the Völva". Examples of Völvas in Norse literature include the seeress Heidi (alt. Heith) in Völuspá, Gróa in Svipdagsmál, Thorbjörg in the Saga of Eric the Red and Huld in for instance Ynglinga saga.

The Völvas were not considered to be harmless.[4] The goddess who was most skilled in magic was Freyja, and she was not only a goddess of love, but also warlike divinity who caused screams of anguish, blood and death, and what Freyja performed in Asgard, the world of the gods, the Völvas tried to perform in Midgard, the world of men.[4] The weapon of the Völva was not the spear, the axe or the sword but instead they were held to influence battles with different means, and one of them was the wand,[4] (see the section wands and weaving, below).

The Völvas were known for their art of seduction, which was one of the reasons why they were considered dangerous.[21] One of the stanzas in Hávamál warns against sexual intercourse with a woman who is skilled in magic, because the one who does so runs the risk of being caught in a magic bond and also risks getting ill.[21] Freyja, who is the master of seid, has a free sexual life that gives her a bad reputation in certain myths.[21]

One of the methods for seducing men may have been the use of drugs.[21] In Fyrkat, the grave of a Völva revealed the use of henbane, a drug which does not only give hallucinations, as it can also be a powerful aphrodisiac.[21] If Freyja was the goddess of love in Asgard, the Völva was her counterpart in Midgard.[21]

[edit] Other practices

The Völvas could also employ drums during their sessions, like the Sami shamans.[23] All Völvas were not surrounded by the same retinue and preparations as Ţórbjörgr, but she could also perform the seiđr alone, which was called útiseta (literally, "sitting out").[24][25] This practice appears to have involved meditation or introspection, possibly for the purpose of divination. Blain (2001) sees it as an aspect of seidhr reminiscent of Shamanism. The term is derived from a 13th century Icelandic law which outlawed útiseta at vekja tröll upp ok fremja heiđni "sitting out to wake up trolls and practicing heathenry". Although the theoretical punishment for this offense foreseen by the law was death, nobody was convicted under it until a minor witch craze reached Iceland in the 17th century.[26] Keyser (1854) describes it as "a peculiar kind of sorcery [...] in which the magician sat out at night under the open sky [...] especially to inquire into the future".

[edit] Male practitioners
During the Christianization of Norway, King Olaf Trygvasson had seidmen tied up and thrown on a skerry at ebb.

Men who practiced sorcery or magic were not received with the same respect, because they were dealing with a practice that was held to be in the domain of women.[7][27] The Saga of Eric the Red relates that Ragnvaldr Rettilbein, one of Harald Fairhair's sons by the Sami woman Snöfrid, was a seiđmađr.[7][27] The king had him burnt to death inside a house with a large group of fellow male practitioners.[7]

From the stuff that I read, it seems that the asteroid,Vala could be related to being a practitioner of the occult that is respected but feared....in hard aspect,it might be somebody abuses the occult or is abused by occultists. If a male has a hard aspect involving it, they could be giving a hard time like "Man...you're into that stuff??? What's wrong with you??? That's for women!"
