House Protection Runestave

Description

This Runestave is handcarved from Rowan wood harvested at Beltane. The symbols were used in Icelandic sorcery in the Middle Ages. The symbols protect from evil and harm entering your home. To empower the charm I've painted the symbols with a mixture of eco-friendly red pigment and my own handmade Dragon's Blood and Rowan magical oil (available for sale in the shop). There is a hole drilled into the back so you can hang this charm on a nail. To protect your house this runestave is best hung above the main entry door in your house - inside or outside of the house doesn't matter - it depends on if you want your neighbours to see it or not!

For those who are witchcraft practitioners or of a less squeamish breed, the traditional Icelandic method of preparing this charm is to paint the symbols with blood taken from your hand. This will bind the charm to you and your home as well as "activate" it. For those who are squeamish, the Dragon's blood in the pigment used to paint the charm will do as a substitute for your own. I would, however, recommend sleeping with it under your pillow for at least one night before hanging it up.

Rowan is a wood of great power that has been used for a thousand years, if not more, in magic to add efficacy and potency to spells and charms. The Norse, Scots and Irish are most well known for using Rowan in magic and spellwork. The Norse used Rowan to carve bindrunes and runestaves with, making this an authentic traditional charm.
