Odin tattoo meaning

The God Odin is considered to be the God of wisdom, magic, poetry, and war. He is the supreme head of the kingdom of Asgard, where the great Norse gods dwell. He protects the magicians and the dead who died in battle. In addition, he has great knowledge of runes and other magic.

He is a god that has some dualities in his symbology, since he is a god of war and poetry at the same time. His name in the Norse language means furious, crazy, and violent, but it also has positive connotations such as wisdom, sensitivity, and soul.

His main combat weapon is a spear called Gungnir, which he used while riding his eight-legged horse called Sleipnir. He also had two ravens, Hugin and Mugin, who were protectors and messengers of everything he knew throughout the world, and Geri and Freki two wolves that always accompany him and who take advantage of him to feed on corpses.

Throughout his life, he acquired powers such as: healing; getting out of difficulties; dodging blows and weapons in combat; calming winds, waves, and storms; transforming an invincible warrior; assuming other appearances.
