The Norns β’
The Norns are three giant goddesses in Norse mythology - Urd (Fate, representing the past), Verdandi (Becoming, representing the present), and Skuld (Necessity, representing the future) - who shape the destiny of gods and mortals by weaving fate and determining the course of lives, symbolizing the inevitability of fate and the interconnectedness of past, present, and future.
The Norns also tend to Yggdrasill, the world tree, by nourishing it with water from their well and ensuring its continued existence.

Book: How to Speak with the Dead.
Author: Sciens
"How to Speak with the Dead" is one of the better guides to mediumship and the conducting of the then-modern seance ever written. Speaking of telepathy and the general philosophy of what a spirit is constituted of, it carefully straddles rationalism and spiritualism. This occult work is one part how-to guide to communicating with the spirits of the dead, one part philosophical tract, and one part view to theory and practice that was then hotly debated, trying to clear up what Sciens feels are misconceptions held by mystics of his age.

When Pymander had said this, he blended himself before my eyes with the powers. And I, who was now clothed with power and instructed about the nature of the Universe and about the exalted vision, thanked and praised the Father of all things. I began to proclaim to the people the beauty of the Gnosis and of the life dedicated to God.
βOh, you nations, you men who are born of the earth and who have given yourselves up to intoxication and slumber and to the ignorance concerning God, become sober and stop wallowing in debauchery, enchanted as you are by an animal sleep.β
On hearing this, they came to me with one accord. And I spoke further: βOh you earthly born, why have you given yourselves up to death, whereas you have power to participate in immortality? Repent, you who walk in error and who have accepted ignorance as a leader. Liberate yourselves from the dark light and take part in immortality by taking leave of destruction forever.β
Some of them mocked me and went away, for they were on the road of death. But others, who had thrown themselves on their knees for me, besought me to instruct them. I raised them up and became a guide to the human race by teaching them in what way they would be saved. And I sowed in them the words of wisdom and they were fed with the water of immortality.
