Mannaz is the 20th rune in the Elder Futhark. It is phonetically, “M.” It’s the fourth rune in Tyr’s Aett.
Its direct meaning is “man,” or mankind. This is the rune of community or marriage. This rune represents the potential of each person. It can also symbolize the hero’s path.
Mannaz is connected to Heimdall. It is also said to be associated with the air element.
Anglo Saxon Poem:
The Mirthful man is dear to his kinsmen;
Yet every man must fail his fellows,
since the will of the Lord dooms
that the frail flesh to earth be taken
Norwegian Poem:
Man is the augmentation of the dust;
great is the claw of the hawk.
Icelandic Poem:
Man is the joy of man
an augmentation of the earth
and adorner of ships

No family
You may have to do this on your own

You may need to focus on your spirit or yourself
Joejoes Note:
This was the community rune. This was both with and away from the people around me. With COVID 19. I spent time with my neighbors, and felt the distance of the people I was not able to see.
