Happy Sunna’s day!! Todays rune is Yr once again from the Younger Futhark. While being seen as the death rune, it also represents the underworld. There’s a lot to learn there, if we view Helheim in our cosmology it is much different than other paths version of the underworld. It’s not all doom and gloom. There is much positive energy that flows there as well. Just like there are two side to every coin, there is life, and death, what comes in between is forged by our own hands and the fight we put into our lives. Never stop fighting.

vænt er, er brennr, at sviða.

Yew is the greenest of trees in winter;
it is wont to crackle when it burns
