	Irminsul - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Irminsul (pillar of Irmin) was the pillar that was said to connect heaven and earth, represented by oak or wooden pillars venerated by the Saxons.
		Irmin was the war god of the Saxons, son of Mannus, and ancestor of the tribe of the Herminones.
		The design of the Irminsul symbol current in Germanic neopaganism, particularly Heathenry and Ásatrú, is based on the shape of the tree in the Externsteine relief, but straightened back into a vertical position.

		The irminsul is a common symbol of the Asatru faith.
		The irminsul was a solar-phallic pillar used in religious worship practices by early Anglo-Saxons, and destroyed by Charlemagne in 772 AD It's exact meaning is unknown, although it may be connected with the Anglo-saxon deity Irmin, who is possibly related to the Norse God Tyr (a theory supported by the shape of the runeletter tyr).
		The Irminsul was likely related to the World Tree Yggdrasil, a symbol of the axis mundi (world axis), a symbol of man and the cosmos.

		The Irminsul is perhaps one the least understood, though most significant holy image to the Germanic Heathen -serving throughout the ages as the primary, central figure in Germanic votive celebrations -this is especially well-documented amongst the ancient Saxons, though certainly not limited to that one ‘microcosmic’ Germanic entity.
		As is to be expected, the Irminsul is that which both holds and supports the nine worlds, and is the conduit for the transmission of runic form and force, as well as those energies exerted in the workings of wurt in and throughout those same worlds.
		Interestingly enough, the Irminsul, while often considered to have four roots (in relation to the four ‘roads’ or ‘pathways’ which lead from it) is most often depicted with only three just as Yggdrasil is likewise described, and both Yggdrasil and the Irminsul were/are known for their roles in holding or supporting the multiverse or cosmos.

		Striking is the bend Irminsul on which one of the figures (Nicodemus according to some) is standing.
		This last may be a reference to the fact that the Germans indeed worshipped an Irminsul at the Extersteine and that the Christians wanted to show that their faith is better than the pagan superstition.
		In Hildesheim the Irminsul was made into a candelabrum (candlestick) and it can still be seen in the local church.

	The Odinic Rite - Odinism for the Modern World - Irminsul and the Externsteine
		Probably, the IRMINSUL of the Externsteine was particularly spectacular, but there were other similar columns recorded, for example in Eresburg, Heligoland or Fulda.
		According to the German author and symbolist, Walter Blachetta, the shape of the Irminsul recalls the Horns of an Aries.
		We could also talk of the Irminsul or Irminsaüle as time-markers or column of sacrifice (the sacrifice which is the Blot, the rite, that means literally the ordering of the world, the wheel of destiny).

		these same energies are absorbed the roots of the Irminsul and are then carried throughout the nine worlds (in which their influences will be made manifest).
		In pouring the water/mud onto the Irminsul's roots, the Wurtâ are quite literally 'laying laws', that is, laying layers and ensuring due course of action / re-action.

		Here I am with my sometime harp partner Irminsul, with his usual Aries pre-gig face on ("Whaddaya mean, real men don't wearskirts?") We don't always play together, because we each have some personal harp agendas, but we have been performing and recordingtogether in Salt Lake City, intermittently since 1994.
		Irminsul now also plays with Stonecircle,a local Irish band which is rapidly getting a national reputation, and I am doing less performing right now and more writing, working on a solo album of Celtic New Age music and a Goddess-themed song cycle for live presentation.

	Yggdrasil - WiccanWeb.ca (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Yggdrasil apparently had smaller counterparts as the enormous evergreen of unknown species that stood at the Temple at Uppsala and Irminsul, which was an oak venerated by the pagan Saxons and which was said to connect heaven and earth.
		It appears, then, that Irminsul may have been representing a world tree corresponding to Yggdrasil among the pagan Saxons.
		Many people have discussed the parallels between Odin's self-sacrifice in search of knowledge and the Crucifixion, particularly as Odin, like Jesus, was pierced with a spear before death.

		Ok, so here’s half of my BIG focus in IE mythology; to determine who was Irmin, or who was associated with the Irminsul, and to see if it truly did embody the concept of a Universal Column along with associations to Rta/Artus.
		To suggest that this deity might be connected with Aryaman and the Irminsul, and if so would then likely also be connected to Mitra and Varuna, and so to Rta.
		2) The Saxon Irminsul (destroyed by Charlemagne, in 772) was located near Eresburg castle, Paderborn in the North Rhine-Westphalia region of Germany, on the eastern border of the Rhine.

		Irminsul has a lenght of 90 minutes, Laplace : Transformation has 45 yet the complexity and quality of the music prevents them from being tiring.
		The monochrome picture of "Irminsul" and "Laplace : Transformation" is therefore replaced with a diverse psyche and frankly in contrast to the previous material, "The Third and The Final" songs have their own unique characters - they do not pretend to be the segments of one big opus.
		Irminsul was a kind of "best of", as I said.

		The history of the Irminsul goes back over 1200 years in „recorded history.“ However, it's history of being worn as jewelry is far shorter.
		This specific Irminsul design was a favorite of the day.
		It was manufactured as jewelry in various forms (stick-pins etc) during the early to mid 1930's for the Deutsches Ahnenerbe e.V. - the German Ancestral Heritage Society.

		Musical differences caused a split in the band, Orthofer, Gerstmair, and Waber all left because they preferred blues and jazz, while Bognermayr and Zuschrader continued on with new musicians, this time in a more straight-up prog rock direction (although Orthofer did rejoin Eela Craig in 1977).
		Two of them were rather bizarre, experimental, and highly percussive spacy pieces recorded in 1972 with Dr. Alfred Peschek, "Yggdrasil" and "Irminsul".
		The other two bonus cuts were from a rare single the band recorded in 1974 called "Stories" and "Cheese".
