1. THE BLANK STONE – WYRD
   ODIN or WYRD – The unknowable – the beginning and the end (FATE)

These rune stones are blank and symbolise something that cannot be known or cannot be controlled and as such fate will decide the outcome.

Runes were first used over 1500 years ago by the East Goths, and later appeared throughout England and Scandinavia. As Christianity took hold, the use of runic alphabets in divination became reviled as a pagan practice. The word “rune” itself comes from an early Anglo-Saxon word meaning “secret” or “mystery”, and they remain an enigma to the world at large. Runes were initially most popular among Wiccans and modern pagans, but have enjoyed unprecedented mainstream adoption in the past 30 years.
