Why do I feel broken? In this Norse story, Jeremy Van Wert suggests that the feeling often comes from old threads of belief other people handed you, not from fate.

Yggdrasil Meaning in Norse Mythology: The Tree of Life and Your Mind
The Yggdrasil meaning in Norse mythology, as Jeremy Van Wert tells it, is a map of human consciousness.
