plains of Northern Europe until the early seventeenth century. Vikings wore the
horns on their helmets in order to transfer the power of the aurochs to themselves.
This rune letter therefore represents primal strength and survival.

through the achievement of one's dreams and unique life path.

will then lead to better things.

Eoh - Y
The yew tree, the tree of endings, and therefore represents the
need to move on to the next stage in life or a relationship.
