Algiz—Barrier, Hidden Danger

Algiz is the rune of the elk-sedge, a type of grass that grows in swamps and marshes. In the Anglo-Saxon poem the elk-sedge cuts anyone who touches it. This suggests the rune algiz represents something seemingly safe that is actually harmful but also something that can be a barrier, depending on context and use.

Swil —Sun

Sowilo is the rune of the sun. In the rune poems, the sun is the light of the world, a source of comfort to travelers and bringer of warmth. Sowilo is a hopeful rune and bringer of good tidings. It represents the power the sun holds in our lives.
