Yggdrasil
In Germanic mythology stands the world ash or the world tree, like Yggdrasil
is also named, in a versatile reference system with different meanings
and symbolism.
On the one hand, the ash acts as a world tree in which it is the center of attention and with
connects the different worlds with their hearts and roots. He is also the axis of the world,
where heaven, middle world and underworld according to this concept by Yggdrasil

Connection of all life in general.Trees were also used as a connecting
link between gods and men.

Odin's horse Sleipnir.
Yggdrasil was not only the first tree, but is so vast in its proportions,
that the branches of the ash spread over all nine worlds and thus connect them.
At the top of the branch lives an unnamed eagle. Between his b
with two eyes was a hawk named Vedrfölnir.
The world ash is considered evergreen and thus symbolizes life and
Fertility. Only at Ragnarök does the ash finally begin to wither, marking the beginning
announced and heralded the dawn of the gods.
