Fehu -- wealth, luck, responsibility,
creative energy; used to draw in energy for a given magickal operation, or as
the moving force behind a working
Uruz -- positive strength,
determination, perseverance, courage, physical health, assertiveness; include in
any healing
Thurisaz -- protection, combating any
action, curses (but be careful -- can backfire easily!)
Ansuz -- can be used to gain knowledge
of Odin, the gods, our own ancestors and ancestral heritage
Raido -- ability to control, take
initiatives, put things in order, be the boss, move or remove things, direct
magickal energies where needed
Kenaz -- kinship, learning, teaching,
quest for knowledge and passing knowledge on; gaining occult knowledge from
other planes; use for astral or shamanic travel; exposing what is hidden
Gebo -- reconciles two opposed or
complementary forces; use to bind or to give blessings or curses
Wunjo -- realize true will, wishing;
combines well with Raido (ability to control)
Hagalaz -- creates confusion,
disruption; can be used in vengeance spells to turn someone's past against him
Nauthiz -- excellent for defensive
magick, as in restraining or restricting someone else's magickal attack; can be
used to stop incoming action
Isa -- defense by blocking; that is,
places barriers in the path of opponent or competitor
Jera -- creates positive, lasting change
in a situation; works well in all matters involving time
Eihwaz -- use in situations that demand
an outgoing, go-out-and-get-it response, such as searching for a job or an
apartment
Pertho -- use in regression work; can
put you in touch with the Norns
Algiz -- invoke divine protection, acts
as shielding device, especially in working where backlash is a consideration;
can be applied to the four corners as a protective sigil, much like a pentagram,
but with a more defensive effect
Sowulo -- contributes strength to any
healing spell; reinforces other runes with solar energy; centers and directs
working
Teiwaz -- gain justice, but only if you
have right on your side (cannot be used if you are guilty, or to pervert
justice); combination of Teiwaz and Raido in a bindrune can win a court case

mysteries; regenerating forces of nature, growth of vegetation, strong shamanic
connections; use to alleviate problems with menstrual periods, pregnancy,
delivery
Ehwaz -- create links between people or
split them apart
Mannaz -- verbal communication, academic
examinations, legal disputes; can be used to arbitrate or mediate in a conflict;
used with Ansuz in a bindrune, it can help you in any communication need
Laguz -- sorcery, occult; can use to
attract love; if projected between the eyes of a person making a request, a
positive reply will be more likely (probably wouldn't work if you asked a bank
manager for a million dollars, but would be useful when asking for a pay raise!)
Inguz -- use in binding; also makes a
great doorway to the astral, so project onto an imaginary door or curtain, for
pathworking or astral travel
Othila -- establishing, centering, and
"earthing" a working down to the physical plane; use to invoke Odin; creates a
sense of belonging and togetherness in group workings and binds people together
in a common goal
Dagaz -- exclude or render invisible;
used to place something "outside", for example, you could envelop yourself in
this rune to go somewhere unnoticed
