Fehu and Othilla are two runes of the Elder Futhark. They both stand for possession in a way, but in very different ways.

Fehu



Fehu literally stands for “Vee”, those cute little animals that give such fine wool, and healthy milk! And also very useful horns, not to mention the great taste of their cadaver when properly prepared.

But what is the power behind the concept? Remember, for the early Germanans, cattle were the enumeration of their material prosperity. A large herd meant a lot of jewelry (horns, bone etc.), lots of fur and wool, and enough food to support many people. If you didn't have your own goat, you were really a prolete, and if you had a big healthy herd, you were capitalist.

In modern use, Fehu is often seen as a reference to material prosperity, for obvious reasons. But a broader association involves energy. As the flesh of the ox nourishes the body, energy nourishes the mind, in short. There are many possible associations to make at Fehu, the easiest thing is probably to get to know the famous and beloved Wanen Freya and Freyr. They seem to me most connected to all aspects of Fehu.

You've written an impressive blog and you're just putting your finger on the sore spot. Handsome written!
Interesting how these concepts from a distant past are still current in today's society.
@Dewaputra fundamentally, we are still people who have to survive with ourselves and each other. Many developments have been made, but the current form of coexistence is not the only one or necessarily the best. That's why I'm trying to learn from a rather forgotten past.
I am very much involved in preserving our nature myself. But we should not lose sight of some other physical issues either.: housing to solve the shortage of housing and the energy problems needed to keep our economy running. In addition, the current... Show more
@Leo 1 these issues are not resolved or reduced under the influence of Shell/NAM and similar companies. They are entities developed to maximize profit, not for any social purpose. And then after what they have caused worldwide, who now entrust this World... Show more
