The Weekly Rune – Fehu

Runes cast on a medium dark wood grain background, with Fehu carved into a cedar stave, Berkana and Gebo carved into polished Baltic amber, a small wooden spoon, a tiny hourglass, a button with a treen in autumn, a piece of plished lapis lazuli, and other Baltic pieces scattered around, with the words Fehu is the half-month rune through 14 July, (carved cedar stave). Berkana is the intuitive rune (Baltic amber), and Gebo indicates Indigeneity’s perspective. The spirits of place anchoring the runes this week are World Ancestor (wooden spoon) with element Timing (hourglass), in the direction of Below (lapis lazuli), in the season of Autumn (tree button). Read right to left is Fehu, Berkana, then Gebo.


I’ve talked about how our modern take on Fehu centers money, though this year’s runecasts with Fehu have totally thrown that aside. Where last week’s cast was flavored with joy and support from many corners, this one is all about humanity and where we stand.


Fehu means wealth, specifically assets that must be tended. It also expresses how we enter into a new cycle--with thoughts of what we have to bring to it, how we cultivate what we have to share, the idea that making sure we all have good Fehu increases everyone’s assets.
