Sowelu

• Skoll:

  Sköll (Old Norse "Treachery" or "Mockery" is a wolf that chases the Sun (personified as a goddess, Sól). With his counterpart Hati ("He Who Hates", or "Enemy") who chases the Moon (personified, as Máni). It is possible that Sköll is another name for the giant wolf Fenrir, and there could be a nature-mythological interpretation in the case of Sköll and Hati. Such an interpretation suggests the wolves may be intended to describe the phenomenon of parhelions or sundogs, as these are called 'sun-wolf/warg' in Scandinavian languages (solulv/solvarg). They chase until the time of Ragnarök, when they will swallow these heavenly bodies
