Anatomical-right foot anchor
Grounding point for ascent
This point marks the anatomical-right foot as one of two grounding anchors in the reconstructed trance ascent. The source narratives describe seiðr performance and a high-seat setting, but they do not prescribe foot points; the bilateral placement is an explicit visual convention for a body-based ascent model.

Eiríks saga rauða ch. 4 describes Þorbjörg's arrival, dress, high seat, and seiðr performance at Herjólfsnes. It documents the ritual setting and seated posture; it does not prescribe a right-foot energy anchor, which is explicitly a modern bilateral rendering convention.
