Norse Wisdom

Orlog - The Primal Law

Orlog is the fundamental layer of fate, the deepest patterns set at the beginning that underlie all things.

Orlog is the deepest layer of fate - the primal patterns laid down at the beginning of existence. While wyrd can be influenced, orlog is the bedrock upon which wyrd is woven. Understanding orlog means understanding the fundamental laws of existence.

The first layer of fate was woven before the worlds began; on this foundation all is built.

Traditional, Norse Oral Tradition

Orlog represents the cosmic order and fundamental patterns underlying reality.
