Uller

An ancient Scandinavian God whose name meant ‘the brilliant one’. He is a step-son of Thor and his mother is Sif. (Uller’s father was the star hero Orvandil.) Uller is invoked for oaths, duels and hunting. He was considered to be the winter ruler of Asgard; and at one time was as important to the Norsemen as Odin. Uller is associated with the Aurora Borealis. In ancient Norse myth, Ull, meaning ‘glory’, is the God of justice and dueling, as well as the patron God of agriculture. He resides in his hall, Ydalir (‘yew dales’). Uller married Skadi, after she divorced Nj
