Wolf & Raven Viking Axe Necklace
Two Norse mythology symbols on this piece of jewellery, the Wolf Fenrir and Odin's Raven.
The Wolf carries contradictory meanings in Norse mythology in fact It can be a sign of teamwork and bravery or a sign of nature's wrath, the power that even the Gods of Asgard were no match for.
Odin had two ravens called Muninn (meaning "memory") and Huginn (meaning "thought"). They would only leave his side to fly throughout the nine realms and gather information which they would later whisper into Odin's ear.
How importantthe ravens are in the Norse culture can be seen from the way Odin is usually portrayed. Quite often, you will come across a work of art portraying Odin with his two ravens sitting on his shoulders.
