My latest label artwork for my shop Valkyrie Beard Care. Each will have a bindrune, color and icon representing it. This bindrune incorporates:

Raido (ᚱ) – Positioned at the top:
This rune stands for journey, movement, and travel. For the Vikingr, it embodies the physical and spiritual paths they traverse, whether it’s sailing across oceans or walking the path of fate. Raido also brings structure to chaos, a sense of purpose, and guidance in the pursuit of destiny. It's the force driving the Vikingr forward, towards adventure and conquest.


Algiz (ᛉ) – In the center:
A rune of protection, sacred power, and defense. It’s often seen as a shield, safeguarding the Vikingr both physically in battle and spiritually from harm. It represents the connection to the gods and higher powers, providing divine protection in dangerous situations. For the Vikingr, this rune ensures that they walk their perilous path with the gods watching over them, granting them the strength to ward off threats.

Laguz (ᛚ) – At the bottom:
The water rune, associated with the flow of life, intuition, and the unknown depths. For the Vikingr, Laguz reflects their connection to the sea, which played a vital role in their journeys and livelihoods. It also represents adaptability, allowing them to flow with changing circumstances, to trust their instincts, and to navigate the unseen currents of fate. It brings a mystical, almost subconscious element to their warrior spirit, signifying that not all battles are fought with brute strength—some are won with intuition and inner guidance.

Together, these runes form a powerful image of a Vikingr—one who moves with purpose (Raido), fights with the protection of the gods (Algiz), and flows with the unpredictable forces of life (Laguz). It's a perfect balance of action, defense, and adaptability, making this bindrune far more nuanced than a simple warrior symbol.
