Well....Bragi had runes carved and/or tattooed on his tongue. There references throughout the Edda's and such about Runes being used as such.  The first rune I worked with was Fehu. It was on my first ritual robe and I do plan on getting that tattoed on my arm. Long story short I went into a trance during a meditation and laid down. When I came back on my arm was this rune from the wax crayon I was using to draw bind runes on the floor. It had smudged off into that pattern. So that is where the tattoo will go. I was trying to do some runemagic for school, I was 15 at the time....the magic worked but I have yet to get that tattoo. I think I have found the artist finally after nearly 20 years searching but I am not sure if she is willing to do ritualistic tattoos or not. We shall see.  She is Asatru and knows the runes well and she has a shop....so hopefully.

As I stated before it is important to know your runes before getting a tatto as it can have dire results.  It seems to me that you know what you are doing and if this woman that will do this tattoo for you is willing to do what you want and you trust her then that is great.  Feoh or Fehu is a great rune for success and accumulating wealth, would love to know how it turns out and if you could post an image so the rest of us can see it thanks.

While money is a thing to me there are more reasons. It is the first rune, it is Freyas and Freyr's rune....It  ties me to the teacher I was working with when I was a teenager, and the energy and magic of that time. I gave up eating cows and fehu is associated with that, wealth through cattle. They were so important to our ancestors and us pagan's these days don't have to eat what we kill...it is a contract of knowing that I remember that and if that happens again I will be ready. I actually gave up all meat dairy and such but cows ...I have this special bond. I am not Hindu but I understand, now, their reverence for said animals, they are regal and smart and for me at least, no longer food. Maybe when I get my farm and raise my own that will change but for now no way.

The girl is part of my Grove, she is also part of a pagan CSA farm I belong to, but for an artist of this type she is very soft spoken and shy. Approaching her has been slow.  Perhaps she will be at Midsummer tonight and if I can get a free moment I will talk to her. I prolly won't be able to post the image she draws, but once it's on me I will be able to.

This is not personal to anyone, but I bristle when the meaning of the runes are altered to satisfy contemporary tastes.  Yes, Fehu (and other name variants) did reflect cattle, as wealth, as animal skin, as milk source, as food. Killing and eating these animals was necessary for survival.  The ancestors (well, mine at least, I do not know your heritage) did not have the luxury of 21st century living and needed the cattle for these items I spoke of.  While it undoubtedly represented wealth, it represented practical wealth that was need to live.  Actually, I found Darkfire's story of Fehu compelling, but I just wanted to lay down historical groundwork.  You really couldn't be a vegan or member of PETA at the turn of the millenium (1000 AD) in, say, old Iceland...

fehu is associated with wealth and in cattle and wealth could be measured by that my aside about veganism is an aside. As much as I lean on history as humans we have evolved and thus so should our Religions.  We will never know 100% truth what they did even with all the channeling and ancestors and regression in the world, we will never know. I walk with one foot in the past whole being grounded to the here and now with my aspirations towards the future. I never meant to offend anyone's veiw or their vision of Fehu, this is just my personal journey and one that will continue as my artist does not ink now only pierce and I do my own most of the 23 of mine were self done.
