“HIMMEL”

Himmel – Himlen opfattes i den nordiske mytologi som en hvælving, der er dannet af urjætten Ymers hjerneskal. Fire dværge stod i hvert sit hjørne; de hedder Østre, Vestre, Nordre og Søndre. Gnister fra Muspelheim blev sat op som stjerner og himmellegemer. Sol og Måne samt Dag og Nat blev trukket hen over himlen af heste. Ymers hjerne blev til skyerne.

Himmel (Danish for Sky) – in the Norse myths, the sky was perceived as a convexity created out of the skull of the primeval giant Ymer. Four dwarfs stood in each corner of the sky; their names were

Eastern, Western, Northern, and Southern. Sparks from Muspelheim were placed on the sky as stars and celestial bodies. Sun and Moon and Day and Night were dragged across the sky by horses. Ymer’s brain became clouds.
