Profile
Origin
Yggdrasil is the world tree in Norse culture. The name possibly comes from Ygg, one of Odins many names, and drasill, meaning “horse”.[1] A gigantic ash tree, its three roots stretch into different worlds, although which ones differ depending on the source. In Grímnismál it is Hel, Jotunheim, and Midgard; and in the Prose Edda it is Niflheim, Jotunheim, and Asgard. By each root lies a well, those being Urd’s Well, where the Norns live and where the gods gather to hold court; Mimer’s Well, whose waters make any who drink it wise and to which Odin sacrificed his eye in exchange for being allowed to drink from it; and Hvergelmer, where Nidhoggr and other snakes lie and gnaw on Yggdrasil's roots. In the crown of the tree sits a great eagle with a hawk on its forehead. The squirrel Ratatoskr runs up and down the tree’s trunk, conveying the words of Nidhoggr and the eagle to each other. During Rangarok, the entire tree will tremble and burn up.[2][3]
