Yggdrasil Norse Divination Cards are a unique tool used in the practice of divination. They are inspired by Norse mythology and provide insight into various aspects of life. The word "Yggdrasil" refers to the sacred cosmic ash tree in Norse mythology. It is believed to connect the nine realms and is considered the axis mundi, connecting the physical and spiritual worlds. The Yggdrasil Norse Divination Cards use the symbolism and mythology associated with this tree to offer guidance and wisdom. The deck consists of 81 cards, each depicting a different aspect of Norse mythology.
This ever-green ash tree has been found in various texts, including the famous Prose Edda and the Poetic Edda. The latter is an unnamed collection of anonymous poems which contains the text from Icelandic manuscript Codex Regius, the prime source of Norse mythology. The Prose Edda is a collection of books written by 13th century Icelandic historian Snorri Sturluson. In Gylfaginning, one of the books of the Prose Edda, Yggdrasil is clearly described in Chapter 15:
An anonymous eagle sits in the top of its branches in constant conflict with an evil serpent, Nidhogg, who tries to unbalance the tree by chewing through one of its roots.

The etymology for Yggdrasil has always been obscure, but many translators say it meant “Odin’s horse” which can also be interpreted as “gallows.” In Hávamál, it was said that the All-Father Odin hung himself for 9 days in order to gain the magic of the runes. Experts translated the “gallows” as “the horse of the hanged” which is later developed into the phrase, “Odin’s Horse.”

1. Jane - 2 out of 5 stars - I was really excited to try out the Yggdrasil Norse Divination Cards, but I was ultimately disappointed. The artwork is beautiful and full of intricate detail, but the interpretations and meanings of the cards felt confusing and unclear. It was difficult to connect with the messages and symbolism presented. Additionally, the guidebook was not helpful in providing much-needed guidance and explanations. Overall, I found the Yggdrasil Norse Divination Cards to be lacking in terms of providing a meaningful divination experience.
2. Mark - 1 out of 5 stars - I found the Yggdrasil Norse Divination Cards to be highly inaccurate and unreliable. The readings I received from these cards did not resonate with me at all and seemed completely disconnected from my personal experiences and beliefs. Furthermore, the interpretations provided in the guidebook were vague and lacked depth. The lack of clear explanations left me feeling frustrated and unsatisfied. Unfortunately, I would not recommend the Yggdrasil Norse Divination Cards to anyone seeking an accurate and meaningful divination tool.
3. Sarah - 2 out of 5 stars - While the artwork of the Yggdrasil Norse Divination Cards is stunning and visually captivating, I found the overall message and symbolism to be quite perplexing. The interpretations provided in the accompanying guidebook didn't offer much clarity either. I struggled to understand the intended meanings behind the cards, leaving me feeling confused and uncertain. Although the cards themselves are visually appealing, I personally did not connect with them on a deeper level and did not find them to be a useful divination tool.
