normal position

WYRD requires willpower and permissiveness because you can not exercise control over what has no shape. In the runic prespective, nothing is predestined. There is nothing that can not be avoided. If WYRD appears in a draw, take a deep breath. This rune can contain the idea of death, real or symbolic. It can indicate that an element must remain secret or hidden. It amplifies whatever happens the symbolic value of the other runes.

Inverted position

This rune is symmetrical and therefore has only one reading direction.
