Widely considered as a wayfinding symbol, the name 'Vegvísir' translates to “That Which Shows the Way.” Made up of eight rune staves, it was regarded by the Vikings as a magical symbol that helped in navigation. It was even carved on sea vessels to ensure their safe return.
Vegvísir's intent is described as follows: “If this sign is carried, one will never lose one's way in storms or bad weather, even when the way is not known.” And so, the symbol was drawn onto the forehead or made into amulets to ensure that the person didn't get lost when leaving home.
Perfect to carry in your bag or pop in the glovebox of your car for safe travels.....A powerful amulet of protection.
