Younger Futhark rune

Þurs

giant, torment, raw opposition

gianttormentraw opposition

Upright meaning

The giant: a force larger than you, blunt and unreasoning. Do not wrestle it head on. Step aside, protect what matters, and let it pass or tire.

Reversed (merkstave)

The giant is inside the walls: your own temper, fear or stubbornness is doing the damage. Name it and it shrinks.

A question to sit with

What are you fighting that you could simply step around?

Its ætt

Þurs belongs to Freyr's ætt, the runes of beginnings, resources and the material world.
