rainbow as a protector in norse mythology
In Norse mythology, the rainbow is seen as a protector due to its association with the bridge called Bifröst, which connects the realm of gods, Asgard, to the realm of humans, Midgard. The rainbow acts as a safeguard, preventing any unwanted beings or evil forces from crossing into Asgard, thus serving as a protective barrier for the gods.
