Valknut
The Knot of the Slain
Three interlocking triangles associated with Odin, representing the transition between life and death.
The Valknut, meaning 'knot of those fallen in battle', is an enigmatic Norse Pagan symbol frequently found on ancient runestones alongside depictions of Odin. Composed of three interlocking triangles, it represents the power of the god to bind and unbind the minds of men, inducing terror in enemies or granting fearless clarity to warriors. Esoterically, its nine points symbolize the Nine Worlds of Norse cosmology and the soul's journey through the realms of the afterlife, embodying the courageous acceptance of fate.
Light
