Laguz is the 21st rune in the Elder Futhark. It’s phonetically, “L.” It’s the fifth rune in Tyr’s Aett.
The direct meaning of Laguz is lake or water. This rune is connected to the goddess Nerthus. She is connected to so many things. You can click on this link for more information about her.
Old Norwegian:
Water is where, a cascade falls from a mountain-side
but ornaments are made of gold
Old Icelandic:
Water is a welling stream
a broad geyser
and land of the fish
Anglo-Saxon:
The ocean seems interminable to men
If they venture on the rolling ship
and the waves of the sea terrify them
and the stallion of the sea heeds not its bridle.

Author’s Note: This post is being written during COVID 19. Each rune has had a deep effect on life changes for me.
This is the only rune for which I could not find a pendant online. I made this pendant from a cedar tree.
As this month will likely bring changes, I am hoping it’s good changes. I looked up Dana Paxton’s Taking Up the Runes: “Water is a powerful, unpredictable, and dangerous element that cannot be governed by human agencies.” If you’re interested, click on this link. I like this interpretation of what Laguz means.
