Upright meaning
A gift and the bond it creates. Balance between giving and receiving, generosity met with generosity.
Reversed (merkstave)
Gebo looks the same either way up, so it has no reversed meaning. Read it upright every time.
A question to sit with
Is what you give and what you receive in balance?
Its ætt
Gebo belongs to Freyr's ætt, the runes of beginnings, resources and the material world.
