8 Elements That Makes Rune Meanings

Rune meanings cannot be really described within few words. Each rune is represented by specific elements, that connected and analyzed together, create the ultimate meaning of each symbol. If you want to master Norse runes, you need to learn all the elements that connected together, makes rune meanings.

8 Elements That Makes Rune Meanings

Below I’ve described all the mandatory small elements that you should learn if you want to use runes as accurate as possible.

• Base Meaning – Very first element that makes rune meanings is the base meaning, the basic conceptions behind each rune. For example, in case of Fehu we’re talking about money and wealth. Each rune can be described with specific keywords, that are later use to create the full meaning.
• Context – When we know the base meaning of each rune, we take overall context under consideration. If we’re asking the runes “what should I do” and “how can I do this” – those are two different questions, and two different contexts. Based on these, based on what we want to know, we add another element to rune meaning.
• Aspects – Each rune can answer questions on few planes: physical, mental or energetic. Each rune can give us answer regarding future, or the tasks we should do, or explain the state of our physical body or physical mind. We keep this in mind when asking norse runes for guidance.
• Translation – Each rune can be directly translated – Fehu is cattle – now it’s always good to analyze the translation, for example let’s stick with Fehu. Long time ago, cattle was a symbol of material wealth – owning cattle meant you were rich guy. That’s why Fehu represents money and wealth. Direct translation of each rune adds another element to rune meaning.
• Polarity – Is the rune’ polarity male or female? Believe it or not, but it adds something to each rune meaning, keywords and context and even aspects should be analyzed according to the polarity of the rune. For example Hagalaz is a female rune – based on this knowledge, it doesn’t seem to be that evil, right?
• Element - each rune have specific element assigned to it – fire, air, water, earth – these elemental powers are another thing you need to consider when analyzing the runes.
• Color – Each rune have a colour assigned to it. Uruz is green, Tiwaz is red etc. It’s another useful information that will help you analyze runes.
• The way you feel the rune - finally, the last important element that makes rune meanings, is the way you feel the runes itself. It’s something between intuition and psychic abilities. Learning this is based on meditation with each rune – only through meditation you can learn how you perceive and understand each rune.

Bringing all these elements together will help you discover true rune meaning – but remember about the context. Each time, with different questions, the context is different – because of this, the meaning is different as well.
