Ravens - Wolf - Valknut

Valknut or also called Wotan's knot is a symbol from Germanic mythology that consists of three
triangles knotted together. The etymology derives it from valr 'warriors who fell in battle and knot
knots. Most of it was historically evidently actually represented in connection with battle scenes,
sacrificial scenes or with Odin / Wotan on picture stones and rune stones.

In its meaning it points to the trinity of life, death and resurrection. Most of the time, a depicted
Fylgia (animal follow-up spirit) is always associated with the Valknut in depicted scenes. The
symbol consisting of three triangles knotted together clearly has a triune symbolism.

The interpretations are extremely diverse, such as Past, present and future It is often seen in
connection with the three brothers: Wotan, Vili and Vé, who killed the giant Ymir and thus ended
the rule of the giants. There are also interpretations that the Valknut as a symbol for the three
Norns (goddesses of fate) or for the 9 worlds.

The Wotan's Knot is also known as Hrungnir's Heart, derived from a giant who challenged Odin
and was slain by Thor.

The magical sun divine light

The magic sun, also called black sun, stands in its meaning for the beginning and the expectation of a new age.

Unfortunately, these days the black sun is often put in a political drawer because the Nazis used it as an ornament in the Wewelsburg was used. No other connections to the Nazi regime are known.

Its true meaning lies in the fact that it represents the divine light between this world and the hereafter. It is therefore as a symbol of the divine light, which determines the change, the beginning and the expectations of a new age to understand.

The symbol on this pendant made of stainless steel is surrounded by a rune circle from ancient Futhark.
