Rune Series 2/24
First Row (Aett): Uruz
Meaning: 'Aurochs', 'Endurance'
Associated English letter: U
Uruz represents strenght of will, vitality, tenacity, health. While Fehu alludes to domesticated animals, Uruz is the wild, untamed auroch, the ancestor of bovines.
Unconscious, raw powerful energies flow through this rune. They must be directed and controlled, otherwise they can bring devastation.
"Mind over matter - matter over mind."

The Runes of this series belong to the Elder Futhark, one of the oldest alphabets in recorded history. Each Rune has endless interpretations and deep meanings; while their origin and/or intent is lost to history, most interpretations come from the 'Rune Poems', possibly written around the 8th century.
