“HAV”

Hav (Sea) – the couple Ægir and Ran are the Norse Gods of the Sea, representing its positive as well as negative aspects. Their daughters are waves. In the depth of the sea, the Midgård Serpent lingers circumventing Earth. In Norse mythology, the sea represents both the risk of the individual facing the threat of sea wreck and death by drowning and the big all-encompassing latent chaos of the Midgård Serpent – a giant monster representing a cosmic dimension. Norse myths, legends and folklore are full of alluring sea creatures, mermen and mermaids.

Ægteparret Ægir og Ran er havets guder, henholdsvis den positive og den negative side. Deres døtre er havets bølger. I havet ligger Midgårdsormen, der, som navnet fortæller, når rundt om hele Jorden.

Havet repræsenterer i den nordiske mytologi både et lille kaos, idet den enkelte stod i fare for at forlise og drukne, og det store, altomfattende kaos, idet Midgårdsormen er skildret således, at uhyret repræsenterer en kosmologisk dimension. I feltet mellem mytologien og folketroen udvikler sig et væld af forestillinger om især troldske og lokkende væsener, havmænd og havfruer.
