Perthro – Jumping into the Unknown!

When Perthro shows up in our lives, it is the call for taking chances. It is the rune that represents the dice cup, games of chance, and stepping out of our comfort zone. When you see Perthro, it may be intimidating to break traditions or old habits. The ancestors acknowledge this fear and also want to point out that you are growing and thriving because you have taken those first wobbly steps towards a new destiny. You can not control the chaos of spinning the wheel or rolling the nice, however, you can choose to face the results. You are growing in new soil!

Are you having trouble facing what life throws at you? That’s a valid way to feel if you don’t think you have the tools to meet those challenges. I have many resources to help you fight your own battle. Thank you for reading. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me! Have a blessed day! – Shining Quill

What are the Norse Runes?

Originally from Germany and Scandinavia, Norse runes are an ancient alphabet.‌ ‌Pagans and Heathens (people who follow the Northern traditions) use them for divination (foretelling). There are 24 runes in what is known as the Elder Futhark version.‌ ‌Odin is said to have gained access to the sacred alphabet by hanging upside down‌ ‌from‌ ‌the‌ ‌world‌ ‌tree (Yggdrasil)‌ ‌for‌ ‌nine‌ ‌days. If you want to learn more about the Norse runes, I can provide you with some resources!
