Viking Ship
Symbol of power, determination, skill
The Vikings were one of the first Norsemen to travel and conquer parts of Europe. They were able to do this with their longships. Longships were made to be rowed or used with a sail. They stood up to the ocean and were important in wars. They could sail in both small streams and oceans and could be used to outpace their enemies. The curled front of the ship made many Europeans call them dragon ships. These were not large ships but were more like boats. Still, the Vikings used them to conquer Europe and sail to North America. Viking would often be buried in their longships so they could be used in the afterlife.
Odin’s Ravens
Symbol of wisdom, carnage
Odin had twin ravens named Hugin and Munin. Well before the Vikings, there were depictions of Odin with his ravens on brooches, amulets, and helmets. If someone saw a raven after making a sacrifice to Odin it meant that their sacrifice was acceptable. Ravens were often seen near battlefields. They are carrions who feed on the flesh of the dead. Because dead warriors were taken to Valhalla the association between Ravens and Odin was created.
Triquetra (Celtic Knot)
The Triquetra or the Trinity Knot is comprised one continuous line interweaving around itself, meaning no beginning or end, or eternal spiritual life. This symbol was originally Celtic, not Norse, but with increased contact and assimilation between the Vikings and the peoples of Ireland and Scotland, the Triquetra and other Celtic symbols/motifs became culturally syncretized.
Yggdrasil (Tree of Life or World Tree)
Yggdrasil is the vast “ash tree” that grows out of the Well of Destiny (Urðarbrunnr). All nine worlds or nine dimensions are entwined in its branches and its roots. Yggdrasil, therefore, serves as a conduit or pathway between these nine dimensions that the gods might travel. If this all seems a little difficult to imagine, you are not alone. Remember, myth is a means for people to understand cosmic truth. For our ancestors, myths like these were as close as they could come to science; and even as quantum physics is difficult for many of us to "picture", it is still our way of describing the truth as we have found it to be. Yggdrasil was a way of thinking about reality and about how different realities could be connected.
