Good Máni’s day! Todays rune is again As/Oss. Here I feel it’s representative of the commanding force of word and song as I prepare today for a small family blót. I’ve written this all out weeks ago and have been preparing for the moment to perform it. To say I’m excited is an understatement. Hail!!
ᚬ As/Oss means “one of the Æsir (gods)”. The rune of divine order. The rune of justice and truth.
Sound: “o†as in “ohâ€
Represents the power of communication, oral bonds, and the commanding force of word and song.
Norwegian rune poem **
ᚬ Óss er flæstra færða
fǫr; en skalpr er sværða.
Translation **
ᚬ As
Estuary is the way of most journeys;
but a scabbard is of swords.
