What Does the Algiz Rune Really Mean?

It’s a symbol from the Elder Futhark, the oldest form of the runic alphabets used by Germanic tribes. While it has several meanings, it’s best known as a protection symbol, safeguarding both physical and spiritual wellbeing.

[@tomsimmonds534]

I have a bindrune, inguz with Isa through the middle, which in turns it into algiz, plus several other runes, six in total

[@zapan9643]

I use primordial runes daily I am growing ever stronger

[@SymbolSage]

Thanks for comment!

[@trooperdoo7117]

So what if its displayed upside down? Does it have the same meaning?

[@SymbolSage]

Not quite sure, but it wouldn't be the Algiz.

[@quaidemckenzie6146]

In my experience inverted runes can have inverted means OR mean you should pay greater attention to the upright meaning of the rune.

[@Rikson_27]

Its also an upside down peace sign ☮️ 😊

[@SymbolSage]

Good observation :)

[@anasalsubhi6370]

[@BryerTheKing1]

For a simple mind yes

[@tomsimmonds534]

Where do you get your bananas?😅😅

[@dustinmann7031]

Well all I’m saying is it sure looks like a crows foot to me…….and we all know how much the crow plays into Norse paganism……as a side not I know absolutely nothing about runes! Just saying that makes more since to me then an elk horn or an eagle of all birds!!!!!! The crows mortal enemy
