While the magical symbol was probably originally created for sailors, who set out to new lands with little idea where they were going, in modern Asatru, it is used as a symbol of spiritual guidance.

We don’t know how the Vikings told time, but they probably used the passage of the sun across the sky to count the hours. Each comes in a finely carved wooden gift box with a complimentary wooden comb.
