==== The strongest and most widespread source is the World Tree (also called axis mundi). ==== Core idea: A single structure connects all levels of reality: * Heaven / gods * The human world * The underworld / chaos This structure often stands at the center or edge of existence β where the known world meets the unknown. ===== - Yggdrasil (Norse mythology) A massive ash tree that holds the Nine Worlds. Its roots and branches extend into different realms, including chaos (Ginnungagap). It effectively defines the cosmic boundary. ===== * Irminsul (Germanic) A sacred pillar/tree holding up the heavens. * Mesoamerican World Tree (Ceiba) Connects Xibalba (underworld), Earth, and the heavens. * Siberian shamanic trees Shamans symbolically climb the tree to move beyond ordinary reality. π In these traditions, the tree is not inside the universe β it is the scaffolding of existence itself.
