Daily Rune – Nauðr

Good Woten’s Day. Todays rune is Nauðr. I see distress here. However it’s nothing to be concerned with. It’s more like a nagging or nuisance that can be just waved off with a flick off the wrist. “Nothing to see here, just some BS that will just go away on its own”. That’s exactly what comes through with this today.

 nauðr (“need”) translates as need, distress, difficulty.

Sound: “n”

Meaning: The rune Naudhr represents not only need but the bondage we may fall into if we let the need for something overtake our lives.

Norwegian rune poem **

ᚾ Nauðr gerer næppa koste;

nøktan kælr í froste.

Translation **

ᚾ Naudhr

Constraint gives scant choice;

a naked man is chilled by the frost.
