Norse Rune Introduction

Description

First off, the symbols are slightly warped in this chart I've done, but still fully recognizable. Let that be known.

Second: If you can pronounce German words, then you can pronounce these names properly.

W = a V sound
TH sounds more like T
Z is much like a TS sound
J = Y
A is AW
E is AE
I is EE
U is OO
O is OE
If you can grasp that.

Read in the order intended, key words for each rune meaning:

Mannaz: Self, Central, Specific.

Gebo: Partnership, Relationship, Teamwork.

Ansuz: Signals, Indication, Direction.

Othila: Seperation, Alone, Broken.

Uruz: Strength, Power, Offense(actively).

Perth: Initiation, Trial, Judgment.

Nauthiz: Constraint, Control, Held(back).

Inguz: Fertility, Birth, Opportunity.

Eihwaz: Defense, Action(planned), Guarded(but ready).

Algiz: Protection, Safety, Reliance.

Fehu: Possessions, Wealth, Comfort(in a physical sense).

Wunjo: Joy, Outcome(positive), Relief.

Jera: Harvest, Accumulation, Fruition.

Kano: Opening, Hole, Advantage.

Teiwaz: Warrior, Honor, Guardian.

Berkana: Growth, Expansion, Inspiration.

Ehwaz: Movement, Progress, Go.

Laguz: Flow, Unstopped, Continuous.

Hagalaz: Disruption, Interruption, Unsettlement.

Raido: Journey, Path, Travel.

Thurisaz: Gateway, Transition, Portal.

Dagaz: Breakthrough, Revelation, Solution.

Isa: Standstill, Stagnant, Stop.

Sowelu: Wholeness, Complete, Satisfied.

Odin: "The Unknown", Obscure, Insight(without).

For the up-side-down version on any symbol, the meaning is not the opposite of the right-side-up meaning. Instead, it is as the chart above says.

If anyone has any questions or curiousities for any reason, feel free to note me about it, putting "Runes" somewhere in the subject line. ^.^
