Odin's Sleipnir Shield. Each day the Gods cross over the bridge Bifrost. The list of horses they ride begins with Sleipnir: "Sleipnir, the best of them, he belongs to Odin, this horse has eight legs." The eight-legged horse of Odin is the typical steed of the shaman. Sleipnir is able to transport a God through the air. In Norse mythology, this horse had the ability to move between 9 worlds.
