About this episode

The episode continues the Rune Walk Saga, discussing the meanings of Eihwaz, Perthro, and Valkyrie Hlökk with guests Luis Galindo and Matt Hughes.

Welcome back Nightbirds! On this episode we continue our Rune Walk Saga, covering the runes Eihwaz, Perthro, and Valkyrie Hlökk. Lindsay and I are rejoined by Luis Galindo and Matt Hughes. With these mysterious runes, we enter into some of the divisive discussions about interpretation. What is the true meaning of Perthro - dice cup or cosmic womb? Is Yggdrasil a Yew tree? We discuss these questions and many more. We talk about the connection of specific gods to specific runes. Is that a hard and fast rule? Finally, we discussed our experiences in journey and trance with the Valkyrie Hlökk - who left a unique and lasting impression on us.
