Overview

Huginn and Muninn are Odin’s ravens, whose names mean “Thought” and “Memory.” These ravens aren’t pets, but rather Odin’s actual faculties of thinking and remembering. Huginn and Muninn fly over Midgard seeking knowledge and wisdom within the lives of mankind. Many Heathens take it as a sign from Odin when they see two ravens auspiciously appear.
