The World Tree is a very
common concept in many religions.
In the old religions the World Tree represents the center of world
often called the
Axis Mundi.
The World Tree is strongly connected to
Shamanism.
The Shaman is able to travel between the worlds by climbing the World Tree.
Thus, the World Tree is also represented in the mythologies and folklore of
Northern Asia, Mongolia, and Siberia.
The concept of a single, allconnecting tree reoccurs in other
religions in the name of the
Tree of Life.
