Chalice Tree of Life / World Ash Yggdrasil 

Mimameid, also Mimameidr, Old Norse Mímameiðr, is the world tree Yggdrasil in Norse mythology.
The Norns are the goddesses of fate. They dwell at the Well of Urd beneath the world ash Yggdrasil (Irminsul) and determine the fate of humans. Their names are Urd, Verdandi, and Skuld.

The Irminsul or Yggdrasil is both the world axis and the midnight mountain in Ultima Thule. As a tree of life, it roots in the earth and spreads its branches to the heavens. In its shortened state, it is the column capital of ancient temples. The left spiral is the path from the spring equinox to the summer solstice, the right from the autumn equinox to the winter solstice. The three angles are Ingo, Irmin, and Isk, the three tribal gods of the main peoples. They are sons of Mannus, the connector between gods and humans. Mannus stands for man = spirit. The three lower angles are the three Norns at the Well of Urd beneath the roots. The Irminsul stood at many prominent sanctuaries and was carried by the migrating tribes, the Atlantic North Sea peoples of the Haunebu, as far as the Orient, where it inspired Persians and Egyptians.
