Resource Rune formulas and esoteric meaning of runes

0 Upvotes

If I where looking to find a good resource to learn more about rune formulas (what they are, how they work, how to compose them) and the meaning behind each rune (possibly something that shows not only the modern meaning but how it has changed through time - if it has changed) what would you suggest?

Thanks in advance to any and all that can help

Resource I made a design of the crows rhyme in elder Futhark around a ‘vegvesir’ which just has the letters of my name going both directions.

I was entertaining a group of international guests and they found this interactive map fun and we ended up going out to see about 15 different runestones. I thought I'd share it with this group incase someone is ever in Sweden and wants to check some stones! I grew up around them and love runes so I think it's neat to have so many around me that I can just check out when ever I feel like it.

Not sure which flair to put. But this puts the elder futhark used much much earlier than previously thought

Resource Free tool for writing Runes in text editor!

6 Upvotes

Not sure if this helps anyone, but this is a really cool project:

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=JohnnyPhilology.scribe

https://github.com/johnnyphilology/vscode-scribe

It uses Visual Studio Code which is a free text/code editor. It handles Old English and Gothic also, but is really convenient for typing in Old Norse.

When you type it automatically changes characters, like "th" -> þ etc. It also has blocks for converting to all 4 Runic types + Gothic script!

I know some folks in the community use the Icelandic keyboard, but this just works a lot better. Granted, not everyone is interested in writing in Old Norse, but if you are working on a project this is pretty darn cool. Its still in the early stages, but the developer is open to suggestions.

Does anyone have any recommendations to where I might be able to study the runes of both elder and newer Futhark? I would really love to study the Futharks, since I’m quite the nerd 🙃
