Winter Mythology

Winter mythology encompasses stories and beliefs from various cultures that personify the cold, darkness, and dormancy of the season. Often, winter is seen as a time of dormancy, death, or transition, with mythological figures representing winter's power, such as gods or spirits bringing cold and storms. Many traditions also include themes of rebirth and renewal, as winter's end signals the return of warmth and growth. These stories reflect humanity's connection to seasonal changes, symbolizing cycles of aging, renewal, and the balance between life's hardships and hope.
