THE NINE WORLDS OF THE NORSE COSMOLOGY
The purpose of this particular page is to give those who lack a good degree of familiarity with the cosmological stomping grounds of the Norse deities, and the other races of beings they regularly interact with in the myths, a crash course on the subject. I will endeavor to make this page as succinct and to the point as possible, giving only the basic information that one may require to fully understand and appreciate the complete otherworldly milieu in which the Norse deities operate within. It should first be noted that much of the original myths as written down before and during the Age of Vikings in Europe was lost, and what survived was in certain cases rewritten by Christian monks of Scandinavian heritage who sought to preserve this literary tradition of their culture after the fall of Northern Paganism, albeit adding Christian-inspired conceits to the material. 1. Asgard--the realm inhabited by the great majority of the Norse deities, and ruled by Odin and Frigga. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
Numbers in Norse mythology
The numbers three and nine are significant numbers in Norse mythology and paganism. Both numbers (and multiplications thereof) appear throughout surviving attestations of Norse paganism, in both mythology and cultic practice.[1] While the number three appears significant in many cultures, Norse mythology appears to put special emphasis on the number nine. Along with the number 27, both numbers also figure into the lunar Germanic calendar.[1] Attestations[edit] Three[edit] The number three occurs with great frequency in grouping individuals and artifacts: Nine[edit] The number nine is also a significant number: Notes[edit] ^ Jump up to: a b Simek (2007:232-233).Jump up ^ This last being from Völuspá, who will "come from on high", is found only in the Hauksbók manuscript.

Super Computers gain speed through the number of processors connected. Each Chakra is a processor. As we connect the chakras higher and higher along the antahkarana by removing the energy blockages between them so we gain more intelligence the higher they go, and the more chakras we connect together.

From Northern Antiquities, an English translation of the Prose Edda from 1847. Painted by Oluf Olufsen Bagge. World tree. Russian ornament. 19th century. Norse mythology[edit] In Norse mythology, Yggdrasil is the world tree. Siberian culture[edit] The world tree is also represented in the mythologies and folklore of Northern Asia and Siberia. The symbol of the world tree is also common in Tengriism, an ancient religion of Mongols and Turkic peoples. The world tree is visible in the designs of the Crown of Silla, Silla being one of the Three Kingdoms of Korea. Mesoamerican culture and Indigenous cultures of the Americas[edit] Among pre-Columbian Mesoamerican cultures, the concept of "world trees" is a prevalent motif in Mesoamerican mythical cosmologies and iconography. A common theme in most indigenous cultures of the Americas is a concept of directionality (the horizontal and vertical planes), with the vertical dimension often being represented by a world tree.

Yggdrasil, Norse world tree - Key symbols - LOTUS
Gods, elves, giants and humans The universe was born from emptiness 1, the deep abyss (Ginnungagap), with the appearance of the primeval polarity of two complementary principles: fire/ice, warm/cold, light/darkness. Their interaction generated nine worlds equally divided into three spheres: celestial, intermediary and terrestrial. The first creatures were born from the interaction of both principles: the giant Ymir, the primeval Androgyne father of the giants' line, and the cow Audhumla, wet nurse of the giants and ancestor of living beings and Aesir gods. As primeval Androgyne, Ymir unifies both complementary principles within himself. As a reflection of Unity, Ymir also reveals himself as the possessor, the custodian of the primeval Knowledge attached to the origin of the universe and beings. The Aesir gods killed Ymir with the assistance of giants and dismembered him to create the universe. I know an ash tree that stands, Called Yggdrasil, A tall tree, Sprinkled with white mud;
