I have just recently started being interested in runes and I read somewhere about birth runes. Does anyone know about these and can maybe help me to work out my Norse rune. Sorry if this seems a strange question. I am keen to learn more so if anyone can give me advice that would be great.
It’s not a strange question at all! Birth runes are a modern way of looking at the ancient Norse runic alphabet. While it isn’t historically or culturally accurate, that doesn’t mean we can’t find meaning in the way the modern world has worked with these runes, too. I can’t find a source on birth runes, but @Susurrus actually has a post about runes and finding your birth rune.
Aww Megan thank you, this is defo something I’m going to read more about. Can thank the Norse weekly challenge for giving me something new to learn about.
Information about July 14 1985:
Age: 39 winters old
Month: Sólmánuðr
God: SĂłl, & Freyr.
Rune: Tīwaz ᛏ
Tīwaz ᛏ was generated since Sólmánuðr is a time of peak summer activity, associated with the power of the sun and the height of agricultural productivity.
Oh wow this is very interesting, seems Freya has been with me all along and only now just realising. Defo a happy coincidence. Do you need to pay a subscription to use the app
According to the charts already given, it does look like you’d be considered on the cusp of both Fehu and Uruz. It’s also interesting that @tracyS got a completely different response
