Norse mythology: The Vikings believed the aurora was the reflection of Valkyries’ armor as they guided fallen warriors to Valhalla—symbolizing honor, bravery, and the afterlife.

Sámi people (Indigenous to Lapland): The lights were treated with reverence and awe. Whistling at them was forbidden, as it could summon danger. They symbolized spirits of the dead or divine energy.

Inuit traditions: Some groups believed the aurora represented souls playing games in the sky, while others saw them as spirits of animals like seals, whales, or deer.
