Brief introduction of gods in Nordic mythology
The earliest Nordic myths all appeared in the form of songs. In BC, the legend of the strange spirit in the period of "when chaos first opened, Gan Kun began to drink" has been circulated among Germanic tribes in northern Europe. In the Middle Ages, Icelandic scholars recorded them in words. There are mainly two "Eda" that can be consulted now (the meaning of this word cannot be verified. Some people think it means "poetry"; Some people think that it is the sound change of Audi, the academic center in southern Iceland, which may refer to "Audi series"): First, the "pre-Ada" or "poetic Ada" discovered by Icelandic scholar Bryn Gjorv Swenson in 1643 was written between the 9th century and13rd century, including 14 fairy poems; One is Post-Eda, or Essay Eda, which was written by the Icelandic poet Snorri Sturluson (11781-kloc-0/241) at the beginning of13rd century. It is an explanatory work of "Pre-Ada".
Nordic mythology reflects the polytheistic beliefs of primitive tribes and their magical and magnificent imagination of fighting nature. Odin, the king of gods, is a one-eyed hero, and Tyre, the god of war, is a one-armed warrior. This image shows the brave spirit of ancient Nordic tribes in conquering nature, especially the cold and snow.
According to Norse mythology, heaven and earth were formed in this way: at first, there were only two regions in the world, one was cold and the other was hot. There is a wide and deep crack between these two areas, which is called "Jinnongjia Crack". When hot and cold meet, that is, when flame and ice meet, smoke and water vapor rise in Ran Ran, and then a giant Imil comes into being, and then a Daniel named Andrew Mara appears, who feeds the giant. It licked the ice and saved the ancestor of the god frozen under the ice, Odin's grandfather Bree in time. Later, Odin and his two brothers, Willie and Willie, turned Imil's body into a world. The head made heaven, the flesh made earth, and it ossified into mountains. Blood turned into the sea, teeth turned into rocks, and hair turned into vegetation. They made the first man and woman from two tree trunks, namely Askell and Emma Bula.
In order to fight against the evil frost trolls and protect human survival, Odin and other gods built a castle in the center of the universe, named Midgard (Earth). The villages in the city have beautiful mountains and rivers and towering trees. There is a tree called Igderasil, which is entrenched in the heaven, earth and the lower world and is the Optimus Prime of this new world. It has three big roots, one of which is stuck in Asgard, the temple of the gods, to absorb nutrients; The other extends to the tunheimr where the frozen giant lives (modern Norwegians use this name to refer to the vast mountainous areas of China), at the junction of the distant northwest ocean and the end of the world; The third source extends to the foggy Dark Horse of Neville or the dark abyss of Wu Xia Town. Near the root of Asgard, there is a holy spring pool. Nuon, a fairy named past, present and future, sprinkled spring water on the roots of trees, making the cortex fraxini tree flourish.
Asgard, the temple of the gods, is magnificent and made of gold and silver. 12 God has his own temple, but every detail must obey Odin's will. Its main hall, Varhala, is the most magnificent. The hall is made of spears and the roof is covered with shields. Odin receives the souls of fallen heroes here, so it is also called the Hall of Heroes. There are 540 doors in the temple. The soldiers went out to fight every morning. Odin sent all the fairies, Valkyrie's, to various battlefields, brought back the brave warriors who died heroically, and gave a banquet with them in the evening. The fairies galloped in the sky on horseback, their armor shining, forming the "Northern Lights".
Various documents involving Nordic mythology have different opinions on the life experience and responsibilities of the gods, which are summarized as follows:
Odin, the king of the gods and the ruler of the world, is also called "Father". He wore a big golden helmet and two crows perched on his shoulders, symbolizing "thought" and "memory" respectively. They fly around the world every morning and come back to report their experiences to Odin. There are two wolves squatting at Odin's feet, who are responsible for guarding. In order to increase intelligence, predict the future and rule better, Odin wanted to drink the water from the well of wisdom, which is the holy spring next to the root of ash tree. But Mimir, the giant guarding the oil well, asked him to pay for one eye. Odin immediately dug out an eye without thinking. Drink well water, and you will become knowledgeable. He invented the ancient Norse script (Rhone), which was used by the goddess of fate to record her destiny on the shield.
Frigga Odin's wife, the goddess of love. Dominate marriage and family life, and have dominion over heaven and hades. She is beautiful, and her hair is mixed with burley smoke. Her white robe was tied tightly by a golden belt with a bunch of keys hanging on it. She likes beautiful clothes and sparkling jewels. Once, she stole a piece of gold from Odin's statue to buy an expensive necklace. Odin found out and ran away in a rage. The universe was immediately ruled by the frost giant, and the winter room was full of vitality. Seven months later, Odin returned to the Fairy Palace, and the earth was immediately full of vitality and everything was thriving.
Thor Odin's eldest son, Thor. He has a red beard and is a handsome young man, which is a symbol of frost giant, a terrorist force against nature. He has a strong body and extraordinary strength. He wears a magic belt around his waist and holds a magic hammer in his hand. This hammer is lightning. No matter how far Thor throws it, it will always come back to Thor automatically. Thor often travels in a chariot pulled by two goats. He killed sheep all the way to satisfy his hunger. As long as he knocks on the sheepskin with a magic hammer, the sheep can be resurrected and continue to pull the cart for Thor.
Siftor's wife, goddess of land and harvest. She has beautiful blonde hair hanging from her head to her feet. One day, Loki, the Vulcan, cut off her hair in a prank while she was sleeping. Seaver was not happy about it, and Saul was very angry. From then on, there is no peace in the world.
Another son of Bode Odin, god of light. Outstanding talent, outstanding appearance, smiling. People felt very happy when he smiled. He had a nightmare and had a premonition that he would be assassinated. The gods were worried about this, so Odin sent an official to strictly prohibit all birds, animals, plants and animals from hurting Bode. However, the official did not give an order to mistletoe, because he felt that this fragile and incompetent plant did not need to be guarded. Loki, the Vulcan, took advantage of this opportunity to make a sharp arrow with mistletoe, inciting Holder, the god of darkness, to come forward, aiming with a bow and shooting Balder to death.
Holder, the god of darkness, is said to be Balder's twin brother, who is blind. He is melancholy, withdrawn, sinister and cruel, and insists on being the enemy of light. Loki, a Vulcan, instructed him to kill the happy God of Light.
Descendants of Vulcan Loki Frost Giant. He gave birth to some terrible monsters, such as Fenris Wolf and Midgard Python. He looks kind and treacherous. He often speaks ill of himself, quarrels with other gods and causes trouble. At first, he just joked for fun, such as secretly cutting Sif's hair. Later, he did evil unscrupulously, became a demon, and even encouraged the dark god to murder god of light. He is proficient in magic and can turn himself into countless monsters in an instant. Later, because of his crimes, he was tied up with chains.
Frey is the god of abundance, prosperity, love and peace, and also the king of Alfei, a beautiful fairy tale country. He and Walder are both gods of light, or sun. His elves do good deeds all over the world. He often rides a wild boar with a golden mane to go out for inspection. Everyone enjoys the peace and happiness he gives. He has a sword, which is radiant and can walk on clouds. He also has a pocket magic ship, which can carry all the gods and their weapons when necessary.
Freya Frey's sister, the goddess of spring, is also the god of love. She is very kind and most loved, because people in the ice and snow are eagerly looking forward to the arrival of spring. She often wears heavy makeup and colorful clothes, and sometimes she goes into battle all dressed up, leading fairies to choose dead heroes for Odin. In some stories, she and frigga are the same god.
It is said that Tyr, the god of war, is the guarantor of the contract and the guardian of the oath. When other gods teased and bound the strange wolf in Fenris, Tyr put his arm in the wolf's mouth as a guarantor of credit. The wolf found that the god who tied him was actually setting a trap and immediately bit off Tyr's arm. From then on, Tyre became a one-armed god. But wearing a sword, he always looks dignified. The ancient custom of swearing by sword originated from the worship of Tyr, the god of war, in northern Europe. Many traditional sword dances are arranged in memory of the God of War.
The son of Bujila Odin, the god of poetry, is said to be the god of wisdom, poetry and eloquence. He often writes poems in praise of great men and warriors. His wife Eden is also the goddess of Asgard. She has a treasure box with golden apples of youth. The immortal is old, so long as he tastes the golden apple, he can be rejuvenated. At the sacrificial banquet in Scandinavia, guests often use the horn dedicated to Blagi, the god of poetry, as a wine glass, drinking to their heart's content, vowing to make contributions and make it immortal in poetry.
The patron saint of the gods of Heimdahl. His mouth is full of gold teeth, his eyes are everywhere, and he can see 300 kilometers away day and night. He was so absorbed that he could even hear the sound of grass growing. He doesn't need much sleep. He guarded a Hongqiao composed of water, fire and gas on the avenue day and night to prevent the frost giant from sneaking into heaven. He rode a horse with a golden mane and a big horn on his shoulder, announcing the whereabouts of the gods. In case of emergency, the horn blares and the sky is rocked by sound.
Nordic mythology has exerted an indelible influence on European culture, especially religious life. Many European countries keep the polytheistic custom when celebrating Christian festivals. For example, Christmas evolved from the celebration in memory of the sun god Frey. In ancient times, people held banquets, danced and danced happily on the longest night of the year to welcome the sun god. The pronunciation of Easter is "Easter", which is born out of the name of Eostre, the goddess of spring. When spring returns to the earth, everything is beautiful, and people exchange eggs one after another to show the joy of welcoming spring. Eggs symbolize the beginning of life. This is the origin of Easter eggs. Some Sunday names in English are also in memory of Norwegian gods. For example, Tuesday is the day of Tyre, the god of war, Wednesday is the day of Odin, the king of gods, Thursday is the day of Thor, and Friday is the day of Freya, the goddess of spring.
