Lokisönnun

Lokisönnun, also known as Loki's Sun, is a celestial phenomenon described in Norse mythology. It is an event where the sun is stolen by the god Loki, causing a period of darkness on Earth. This event is often associated with the Ragnarök, the end of the world in Norse mythology.

The story of Lokisönnun is told in the Prose Edda, a collection of Norse myths written in the 13th century. According to the myth, Loki, the trickster god, is tasked by the giant Thiazi to steal the sun. Loki, with the help of the giantess Thiazi's daughter, manages to steal the sun and hide it in a cave. This causes a period of darkness on Earth, which is known as Lokisönnun.

The myth of Lokisönnun is often interpreted as a metaphor for the cycle of life and death, or the struggle between light and darkness. It is also seen as a warning about the consequences of greed and deceit. The event is a significant part of Norse mythology and is often referenced in other myths and stories.
