The spinners of life [norse]

Urd

Is the most important of the three Norner, and the well that the tree of life is getting water from is named after her. She is the fortune God, she knows the humans life and its destiny. Unique for the Norse mythology is that even though she as a God knows the human destiny the humans still has impact on their future. In other mythologies the destiny is determining your future and it can’t be changed. The people can make decisions on goals and methods, go for new possibilities and choose to work hard toward new visions about a different life. Freedom is not unlimited, but is a part of the necessity of life bounded to life and death.

Verdante

She is representing the difficulties in our present life. She is dangerous and makes the life dangerous to live. She always challenges laziness, false security and bad habits and she is allergic to resignation. She is fighting the so called universal truths.

Skuld

The last one of the three Norner in Nornesalen is Skuld. Every day she goes with Urd and Verdante to Urds well and poor water over the tree of life, Yggdrasil and fertilize the roots of the tree. She gives the tree her third of the resources from Urds well, the decision, the solution and the future. The law Skuld represent can not be agreed to or thrown away, it is not written down or spoken, but it is still there. It forces humans to make decisions and look at ones life in the light of the result that emerged from ones actions and struggle, and make sure that these results is passed on to the next generation and its future.
