Runes - Writing From
History
Fehu
Runes.

An alphabet from
history, prehistory almost.

There are many ascribed
formats of runes, Celtic,
Egyptian, Saxon, Norse to
name but a few.

Which are the "Real"
runes - for this you must
do your own research as I
am not a scholar here,
just a small Glasgow
woman with many
interests.

As I make no claim to
being a teller of fortunes
or one who can see the
future, anything you
derive or define from this
section of the site you
bear full and sole
responsibility for.
In the words
of Burns, as he
wrote from the heart.

Scots, wha hae wi' Wallace bled,
Scots, wham Bruce has aften led,
Welcome to your gory bed,
Or to victorie.

Now's the day, and now's the hour;
See the front o' battle lour;
See approach proud Edward's power,
Chains and slaverie.

Wha would be a traitor-knave?
Wha can fill a coward's grave?
Wha sae base as be a Slave?
Let him turn and flie:

Wha for Scotland's king and law,
Freedom's sword will strongly draw,
Free-man stand, or free-man fa',
Let him follow me.

By Oppression's woes and pains!
By your Sons in servile chains!
We will drain our dearest veins,
But they shall be free!

Lay the proud Usurpers low!
Tyrants fall in every foe!
Liberty's in every blow!
Let us Do - or Die!!!

Choose your destiny.
Note: Runes have been included in this site for a couple of reasons - firstly they were the ancient Norse
and have also been claimed to be the ancient Celtic form of writing, and secondly just because I happen
to have a personal interest there. Please note - all runic items on this website are for education,
dissemination of information and enjoyment / entertainment only.
Fehu symbolizes a journey that is  likely to
contain an inheritance, or possession, real
property of some kind or type. It also promises
of nourishment, fulfillment, it is symbolized in
Cattle. Now is the time to examine profit and
loss in your life, examine what is most
important for your self well being and
development, is it the possessions you have, or
is it the well being of your soul? Conserve what
you have gained, share your wealth with those
loved by you, and let your spirit soar on the
winds of heaven.
Merkstave or Reversed / Widdershins,

please, be aware that the possibility is that you
are in for a time of trial, of disappointment and
dispossession, of frustration that should not give
way to anger, for although you may become
dispossessed of the material, that which truly has
worth is the self, and none but the self can
dispossess you of that inner value.
