Dagr ("day", modern Scandinavian: Dag, modern Icelandic: Dagur) was, in Norse mythology, the god of the daytime, a son of Delling (god of twilight) and Nótt. Dagr, the Bright and the Fair, drove across the sky in a chariot every day, pulled by a horse named Skinfaxi. Skinfaxi's mane lights up the earth and sky. Nótt's equivalent horse, Hrimfaxi, lights up the night.
