Norse Wisdom

Fehu - Wealth and Abundance

Fehu represents mobile wealth, cattle, and prosperity that must be circulated to bring blessing.

Fehu is the first rune, representing wealth in its mobile form - cattle, gold, and resources. This rune teaches that wealth must flow to bring blessing; hoarded wealth stagnates. Fehu also represents the fire of creation and new beginnings.

Wealth is a source of discord among kinsmen; the wolf lurks in the forest.

Traditional, Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem

Fehu represents the paradox of wealth - its power and the conflicts it creates.
