Yggdrasil

I have joined a Dutch group on Facebook for Wicca and someone there asked if Yggdrasil was Wicca.I have done some reading but I can not find it being related to Wicca.Is it druidism or completely something else?I thought I'd ask the more experienced people around here.

It's the world tree of the Northern tradition. I believe it's an ash tree.

The Northern tradition and Norse mythology don't really have much to do with Wicca - but that being said some Wiccans honour the Norse gods.

I thought as much.It is something I have always feel drawn to, and a few years ago I found out my ancestors are vikings.Thanks Jen.

This is the World Tree in the Sacred Circle tarot deck. It connects the three realms of Being. The tree has it's roots in the Spirit Realm, Underworld, the trunk in The Mundane Physical Realm, Middle Earth, and the branches in the Heavenly Realm. A wide-spread model in pagan mythology. Scandanavian Yggdrasil is a giant evergreen ash, The Celts - an apple or oak.
