The complete Icelandic staves / Ásatrú symbol series.

Each artwork is representing an element. They are presented here in the following order : fire, earth, metal, water, wood and air. The symbols are accompanied by stanzas of the Hávamál or Völuspá, written in runes.

You can find the stanzas in English and the names of the symbols on each individual post here.
