Wood-Burned Rune Keychains (Short)
Wood-Burned Rune Keychains (Short)
These wood-burned keychains are handmade by Three Morrigna, bearing Elder Futhark runes inscribed in birch.
While primarily a Germanic alphabet (used from the 2nd-8th centuries), each rune contains its own meaning and cultural context, and as such, they are also often used as magical symbols, like sigils.
ᚦ Thurisaz: “Giants” – Strong one, Resistance, often associated with Thor
ᚱ Raidho: “Ride” or “Wagon” – Journey
ᚾ Nauthiz: “Necessity” – Constraint, Friction
ᛇ Ihwaz: “Yew” – Yggdrasil
ᛈ Perthro: Literal translation unknown (possibly "Lot-Cup") – The Norns, Fate
ᛒ Berkano: “Birch Goddess” – Birth, Sanctuary
ᛟ Othala: “Homeland” – Inheritance, estate, noble
