1. Symbolic Meanings

Origin of the Symbols

the shadows on a sun dial and the sand drawings are very similar

put the two together and you have the basis for how these symbols and our orbit was discovered.

and the begining of written language

could have started as kids playing in the sand, this squiggle means that log, this squiggle is that rock, et each kids favorite area

as adults continuing to use that same teaching theri children that basis. expanding from their

have a great day

1. The basics, what the symbolic concepts are a little about how they came about but mostly how they work.
2. Calendars, there are 8 calendars a year, each one based on the equinoxes of a year.  Since there are different things happening at different times of a year, each blot has its own meanings to it.  Consequently each of the different meanings do have their own flow to them. As well as overall definitions to the overall greater application of the definitions, there is an overall definition but there are also very specific definitions depending on the flow of the Electro Magnetic fields. How this works I am looking forward to finding out.

3. Hours, similarly to the year, but this happen just over the course of a day.  The high noon = mid-summer, midnight = Yule or midwinter.  And the same way the hours of the sun in the day depending on the flow of the year also the flow of a year depending on longer counts as well. Which is what gave me the idea for the generation map as well as the longer counts. Over the course of a year there are so many things happening that there is almost hard to conceptualize that a day and a year could have things in commune but there are also winters that are short there are times when the history of the world is so bleak and nothing happening that the energy of the situation brings to it a sense of winter. Even at the middle of summer there are times when the energy is so slow that there can literally be nothing happening. Then there are times that we are living in that produce a sense of anything is possible, looking at the sequences the dark ages in Europe where a time of Haggalaz on a large count. 
4. Seasons, the different seasons of a year.  As well as the different seasons of the generation. The longer counts. Each of these things means something.  This has meanings for the day, year, and generation, as well as longer counts

i. 2: winter summer, just like the day

ii. 3: 8s

iii. 5: the 5 seasons

iv. 8 the blots

v. 13 moon cycles

The runes by classic definition are an ancient divination device. The ancient Northern European tribes used them not only to determine the future but also to aid and assist themselves in everyday life. What we know about the runes is that the Romans after the Nordics refused to tell or share the knowledge of what their language meant called it Runa meaning secret or hidden meaning the runes themselves are a combination of divination and language. But they do it in a way very different than classic tarot or astrology. The runes at their heart are a symbolic divination device used by individual tribes stretching from Greenland to the steppes of Russia. Different versions have even been found in the desert to the southwest. They work on a very simple symbol concept of action, balance, reaction. As in the symbols themselves are symbolic in nature. As in they are literally a concept or picture of the way the Nordics say nature. The first 8 symbols are entirely based on how individuals can gather together and form some sort of community. Humans are not that solitary in their existence. Some individuals are happy and content with themselves but the majority want and need to flock together. So the first symbol is Fehu, priorities. Now this has a variety of different meanings but basically it is the concept of how we can all live, work, function, and survive together. So there needs to be some form of multilevel priorities understanding and in order to trust your companions. Second is Uruz. Strength. Strength. is what an individual will use to accomplish what they want or need. It holds the same meaning for a group of people. How can we pool our resources together to build what we want to build? What we want to build was established in the priorities section. Next Thurasaz. This is an individual going within themselves to determine what they want and what they are willing to do for themselves to get it. How much of their wants and needs do they have now and what are taking into account for some level of time from understanding. What do they want in the future? Taking all these wants into account and also going by the priorities of those that are around what is the self-willing to do for more that are around. [I want this, this person has it, what do I have that they need? The next symbol is Ansuz. Ansuz is looking at the world with new eyes. Taking into your personal world changes are the time and the person you were at any given time in the past is not how you are now. So a constant and continuous form of not only changing your mind but also changing what you want. Especially if a portion of your wants, needs and desires are fulfilled you need to see things around you are constants with new eyes. Reorganizing the way, you see things. What you are willing to do as well as what you are wanting. The next is Raido. This symbol is about the journey. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. To enact all that you have learned and done in your life it is vitally important to take your own steps in your life to go out, step forward to accomplish the goals you set for yourself in Fehu. What are your priorities in life? How are you going to get them done? If you do not go forward get out for yourself and accomplish. The next symbol is Kannaz. Kannaz means wisdom. The wisdom of truth. In everything you need to sit back relax and really think about all the lessons you have learned about this life you are living. Since after this life we are living is not the only one we have but learning new things is exactly the reason we are here in the first place. These first six lessons are extremely and vitally important. Since after all the actual name of the language is Futhark. Six symbols, six elements. The next symbol is Gebo. Gebo teaches about the finer qualities of the people you are around there are basic accuanturesyou do not know them very well nor do they know you. So now after you are confident about the things you have been learning up to this point meet and get to know each and every one of them so that you can have an idea of how they are as well and you can get to know them. What is their Futhark and teach them your Futhark. Meeting and getting to know all the people you are around is absolutely vital to continue associating and building a community, any kind of community. The next symbol is Wunjo. Wunjo is about learning to separate the people you know into first likes and dislikes. Then to more complex issues of who this person is and do we need to communicate together about wants and needs? This is all about making friends, influencing and seeing if your inner priorities match those around you and who you can live with or around. These first 8 symbols are the basic guide lines for building a successful community. The community is a concept developed around a group with similar goals/priorities living close together in communication together helping out who needs help and working to build a better life for the individual as well as the people around you. You happen to have not only similar interests and priorities but also genuinely like being in their company and them being in yours. The next group of 8 symbols is all about the individual learning all about themselves. Haggalaz. Before one can proceed in one’s life you must remember where you came from. Those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it. Doing a review of the events of the past is good. It keeps it fresh in the mind. Keeping what happened in the past fresh is good to learn from. Do not dwell there just learn the lessons you missed. Also having a fresh perspective on an old thing is good. Having damage in the past is good to remember it from a new perspective so you do not hold a grudge against who or what hurt you. Remember everything in life is a lesson to be learned. So we can become better for it. Nauthiez. These lessons are about paying attention to what is happening in your life. All of your attention needs to be focused almost totally on what is happening in your life right here and now. Since there are incredible things happening right here and now in your life pay attention there are opportunities happening which may not happen again. Isa. Means glacier. Over time the glaciers path is very clear. It will come and go on its own internal clock and future plan. You need to be able to move yourself forward over the long haul knowing your wants, needs and desires. It is also vital to remember that in addition to everything out of its way in order to accomplish its given task. A plan of what needs to happen next. Building a model for your life seeing where your needs can get accomplished. A plan for getting and receiving what an individual want for their life. Jera. Cycles of life. Learning that a tomorrow must come. Life and death. Cycles continue. For life to continue something has to die and be fed upon in order to sustain life. When you set forward to get something accomplished in life there always has to be a sacrifice to have gain. Jera teaches to move forward where the individual can accomplish the set upon goals of one’s life. When learning about the cycles of nature some of the most important things to remember is the action balance creation concept. In nature there is always a time to do something. It is up to each and every individual separately to determine in each individual separate part of their lives to determine what is the most advantageous for each part of your life to be doing at that specific juncture. Is a forward action needed? A balanced neutral position, or an inertly creative action needed and at what point are these things needed. This is the lesson of the cycles of nature and life. [up to this point in one’s life they have only done action reaction and balance here is where the concepts of a new way of doing something is introduced.] Eiwaz. Creation. Yew tree. The yew tree is where every life grows from. Up to this point in life. Doing this has been a relatively simple matter either it did not work or it worked from sheer luck and allowing mother nature to do the building. Well now it’s time for you the individual to learn how to build for yourself. During this time and lesson you need to gather up everything you have learned up to this day in your life. All the lessons of the previous 12, as well as all the experiences you have had up to this point, and you will need to carry yourself forward to learn just how to begin and how the internal creative process works in your life. First step in this highly different stage of your life is to design exactly based on exactly what you want to do with yourself. After you have this idea which may be just a much more complex version of the image you had and wanted for yourself when you first began this sequence in the first place. How to go about it is after establishing the what you want. The next thing to do is from what you have learned about yourself up to this point and consulting close friends for their input into the subject the thing you need to do beyond anything else is to start learning what you need to do to your entire being to bring about the changes in your life you are trying to achieve. Once you have done this you need to make major strides in opening up yourself to reach within yourself to determine what exactly you want to learn about to be able to create that which you need to have. What are you willing to do in exchange for information? Who do you know that may know how to show you or teach you about what it is you are trying to create in your life. Plus, are you willing to listen and learn from that person or thing in order to learn how to create or earn or build in your life that which you have determined is what you want. The next step is actually doing the learning process. Allowing yourself to be put under someone else’s idea of the way life should, would or needs to be. In order to learn from them. Then actually do the learning. Accept the lesson you have asked for. A key note here. Memorize just about everything you are taught in some way shape or form in life everything you learn at this point is directly connected to what you inwardly asked to learn during this point. Becoming a pseudo master of everything you are taught will help you establish the basics of your life. If you learn the basics and master them the rest of your life’s journey will be just that much easier. You will have mastered the basics of a new skill. This will carry you through until it’s time to not only continue getting better at that thing you wanted to do or create it will teach you how to if you want something else different or learn the same thing in a different way. You will know how to learn and create for yourself anew. Pertho. The application of what you have just learned at a given point you will have learned a great deal about all kinds of stuff about the skill or creation you wanted to build but what is creation if there is nothing to be done with it. Here is how and where to apply yourself to the world this new creation you have for yourself. In your world there will be opportunities that will come out of all but now there which will allow you to apply your new found knowledge of the world. First you create then you apply the creation. To not only learn more about it but to help those around you that have helped you. Having something new to offer the community yourself and your surroundings which will benefit everyone. Everyone includes the self. Everything you do comes back three times. Alhaz. Paying attention to your surroundings. Once you have had an opportunity or two come your way you need to learn how to truly see the external world. The external world is a very big and scary place but it will help you to establish how to look at everything but yourself. Sort of Ansuz but instead of new eyes. Look at it from its point of view. What is the world that is not doing? What are its actions and reactions? Watch people around you see what they are doing. See how they are doing it. See what they need and how they go about getting their needs accomplished and satisfied. You can learn a lot about your community by simply observing as to who they are what they have learned and how they go about their daily lives. Learn what is important to them. Why is it to each and every individual what it is. Why do they need their own it? Plus, how do the individuals and as a group go about getting there it. Sowillo. Understanding. Now that you have learned a great deal about yourself and more importantly others your next task in life is to not only review the last things you learned about yours and what you need and how to build yourself into something but you learned there is an external world that knows little about you as well as cares little about making sure you get your needs met and your IT. You need to stretch yourself out reaching out to others around you from there you externalizing what you know how to do and see if they are interested in sharing there IT with your IT. In whatever fashion you both choose is the best. From this exchange you individually need to learn how best to apply yourself to the world and determine what you are best at. What part of what you have learned about yourself in the past 15 steps have you decided you really did not like and what form did you decide was actually a very good thing which you liked and enjoyed tremendously. Interaction with others around you will help you determine parts that are good about yourself and parts that need work. All of us starts with 2 legs need to learn something about ourselves to improve upon our basic character as well as helping us the individual to learn more about our inner self which will allow everyone to get just one step closer to us all being better individuals, community and eventually society. The lessons we have just learned about in the previous 8 are all about the individual. After the first guide to creating a society is a society is a group of individuals working together for a common purpose. But the individual cannot continue anything substantial to a society at all unless the individual knows themselves. For the individual to know themselves they must have a clear understanding of where they came from. Where they are, where they are going, a good deal about what they want, need an ability to create that want and need in their life with a strong emphasis on the others around them and what their own personal mark on the world around them reacts from them the individual as well as what the world and community does not want need or desire. Putting this all together with an understanding of the self. Who you are where you will be going as well as who you need to interact with in order to accomplish the goals you have set yourself. The last 8 symbols in the sequence deal with learning how to combine the previous 2 sections to build a workable society. Where a group of individuals get together to build something better than my own individual or community could alone. Tiwaz action. After one has learned how to do one must learn how to let go of the little things in life and allow life to move as fast as it can to bring about maximum change and opportunity. There are times when the preparation is to go within and be quiet with one’s self. This is not one of them learn how to operate one’s self full speed. All owning all the actions and reactions and momentum in one’s life to truly take hold and bring about very quickly everything ones hoped for moved about constantly. One learned about as well as spent time concentrating on the smallest picture of life. Now is time to see how the proper amount of internal work can transform one’s external life in the blink of an eye. Birkano. After rather intense movement happens in one’s life there is a need to apply in a big and large way the lessons of quick and precise movement. As a great deal of external action in your life is happening one of the most profound and most important things to realize is that there can a great deal happening to you and still be quiet and comfortable within yourself about observing all that is happening to you and still be able to be within yourself learning and growing and becoming a better individual. Personal growth at all times is the key. Ewaz. This is where life starts to move and happen for the individual very fast. Instead of trying to do any directing or personal application at this juncture the most important thing to do is realize the importance of sitting back and enjoying the ride. Seeing how the ride and the show of the world works. Think of yourself riding on a horse. Instead concentrate on making sure the horse is walking or moving or that the horse knows where it’s going. Sit back in the saddle and enjoy the ride. Watch the scenery go by. Enjoy the imagery of the dance of life. Mannaz. The self. Who are you really? Where are you going, what do you want to do with yourself? Mannaz is a very strange lesson. It deals with the actual application of everything you learned about in the middle 8 from 9-16. This lesson is all about integrating into yourself everything you learned about from 9-16. There were many complex things going on then and there is little time during to bring them all together into one concept with your own individual understanding of life. Now is the time. Sit back with yourself and take a really good look at who you truly are right here and now. The reason for doing that is to not only integrate everything you learned but to truly get a proper perspective on the whole subject of who you are and where you will be going next. Are the many very complex stuff you have learned about during the time is highly important since after all those eight lessons are the center point to you truly knowing yourself. Here is the opportunity you need in order to move forward with yourself and truly build your wildest dream. You learned how to identify. You, learned how to go within yourself and start the inner creation process and you learned how to apply your talents, your skills, and your understanding of life to the world your community, yourself and now it’s time to bring everything together to learn how to apply everything you have learned about yourself and become a valued member of a society. [how you find the society in which you need to be in depends on how much you learned to pay attention to everything that was not you. Laguz. The flow of the universe. Here we learn the value of seeing the big picture. The big picture is the concept of being able to sense and see there is a greater whole to everything in life. There actually is a non-diets rested plainer plan. Chat Conversation End Type a message...
