Runes and their meanings

In the runic alphabet each rune has a marking that also symbolises something in the natural world, unlike the English alphabet where the letters are devoid of meaning. They only gain significance when linked with other letters to form words.

Within the 24 runic signs of the Elder Futhark, the runes are divided into three families or aett, which are ruled over by individual spirits. There is also a blank 25th rune called Wyrd, which is the symbol of karmic fate.
