The rowanberries, a vitamin boost for the songbirds before the colder season sets in Did you know the rowan tree is also called Thor’s deliverance? The reason for this is explained in Prose Edda, during one of Thor’s confrontations with the jötun Geirröðr and his daughters: When crossing the great river Vimur, the stream rising above his shoulders, Thor gets hold of a rowan branch and pulls himself to land. Additional fun fact: Why was the river suddenly rising, you might ask? Well, Thor spots the giantess Gjálp standing further upriver, one foot straddling on each side of the flowing stream… Ah, the wonderfully bizarre crudeness of Norse mythology! #rowan #norsemythology #norse #viking #vikings #vikingage #fall #fallvibes #september #autumn #autumnvibes #autumncolors https://www.instagram.com/p/CUN2R1ULSWM/?utm_medium=tumblr -- source link
