Raven Skull Meaning

The raven is an important symbol in many cultures.

Many Vikings revered and worshiped Odin, the most powerful Norse god, who was said to have a raven or two perched on his shoulders, and so they regarded ravens as sacred birds. Remember this, thus the raven symbol is a representation of Odin. If a raven happened to fly over their heads in battle, they took it as a sign that they were in Odin's favor and that victory was guaranteed.

In ancient Roman culture, ravens were associated with the dawn, hope and the future. In Egyptian culture, ravens represented aggression and malice. For Slavic peoples, the raven symbolized misfortune and death.

Among Indian tribes, the crow symbolizes longevity. In Scandinavian mythology, the birds accompanied the god Odin on his expeditions and symbolized sharpness of mind and determination.
