Fehu is cattle
or money or wealth.
Uruz is aurochs
of strength and of health.
Thurisaz prickly:
a thorn or a thurs.
Ansuz is Odin,
a mouth or a verse.

Raido is riding,
so tiring and long.
Kenaz a torch
bruning brightly and strong.
Gebo a gift;
an exchange; an award.
Wunjo is joy,
sweet contentment's reward.
------------------------------------
Hagalaz--hail
both harmful and good.
Nauthiz, our need,
helps us learn what we should.
Isa, ice deadly;
a danger unknown.
Yera, the year;
we will reap what we've sown.
Eihwaz the yew
reaches into the skies.
Algiz the elk-sedge
is foeman's demise.
Pertho the dice-cup
is wyrd, luck, or fate.
Sowilo the sun
circles ever so great.
----------------------------
Teiwaz is Tyr
bringing justice and right.
Berkana the birch
is fertility's might.
Ehwaz the horse
is your partner and friend.
Mannaz is people
with lives that will end.

Laguz the lake
is both treacherous and deep.
Inguz is Frey
whose abundance we reap.
Othala, sweet home,
is our ancestral right.
Dagaz, the daybreak,
turns darkness to light.
