Yggdrasil is a massive tree that holds together the nine realms of existence with its branches and roots. It reaches into the clouds and down into the underworld. Snakes gnaw at the roots, squirrels scurry up the trunk, and an eagle perches in its branches, but it is still where the Gods hold their daily council. It represents life, growth, and connection between all living things.
To discover the secret magic of the Runes, Odin hung himself from a branch of Yggdrasil, pierced himself with his spear, and peered downward into the shadowy waters of the Well of Urd, a pool of fathomless depths that held the Norns, the maidens of fate themselves. For nine days and nights the Allfather tethered between life and death in his self imposed ordeal. At the end of the ninth night, from the depths of the Well of Urd he finally learned the secret of the runes.
