focus bindrunes

 

Sometimes I cast runes to create a bindrune for one purpose or another. I had some larger pieces from a piece of juniper we pruned back and they were finally dry enough to do something with. So I created the three bindrunes above. I’ve been wanting some larger bindrunes to use as a focus for either hedge riding or other magickal workings and these seemed perfect. I love juniper. The wood is so distinctive and it smells wonderful when I’m burning in the runes.

Beginning on the left, I used Uruz, Berkano, Fehu, and Isa to create a bindrune for manifested will. This bindrune can be useful as a focus in any working to manifest your intention. Uruz’s downward pointing horns shape matter into form, therefore providing the witch with the catalyst necessary to manifest her desired intention. Berkano supports this creative focus by bringing the witch’s magickal will into being. Isa brings the witch’s focus to her still point. Fehu sends the energy of the bindrune on its way into the universe. This bindrune can be placed on the witch’s altar or workspace, or held during the working.

In the middle is a bindrune to achieve inner clarity. Sometimes we need to expand our vision outward in order that we understand what’s occurring. This bindrune incorporates Ansuz, Laguz, and Uruz to assist the witch in achieving clarity. Uruz sits in the middle, manifesting the witch’s desire. Ansuz and Laguz surround Uruz, their energies moving outward like rays, Laguz casting out for intuitive awareness and Ansuz bringing truth to bear. This is a powerful bindrune that assists the witch as she centers, aligns, and knows.

The last bindrune is for hedge riding. As a hedge witch and an empath, I’m more comfortable aligned in my Source Presence than in my body. Riding the hedge is similar to shamanic journeying or astral travel and it’s a lovely way to bring myself back into focus. Ehwaz represents our soul vehicle or merkaba. It provides the structure for the hedge riding bindrune. I chose Sowilo as a rune of Higher Self, providing spiritual clarity and protection along the journey. And finally, I chose Eihwaz, the link between physical and nonphysical presence to tie everything together. I really love this bindrune.

The idea behind bindrune creation is to blend runic energies together to create something greater than each individual rune. So when you arrange specific runes together, you create an intention that you can then cast to the universe. They can also be carried or worn as talismans or drawn on anything to create a particular effect. Sigils have been used forever to create magickal intention or to communicate information. But runes are special, given to us by Odin, and they’re my favorite divination tool.

I’ll consecrate these bindrunes on the Dark Moon, preferring the Crone aspect of Goddess for this ritual, where I’ll bind together the runes, blending energies within, bringing balance without, infusing with immanence, blessing and consecrating in alignment with loving Source Presence.
