The oldest form of the runic alphabets, the Elder Futhark. I thought it appropriate to represent it in twigs and sticks, in mandala form.

This runic inscription is of the Elder Futhark, the oldest form of rune alphabet. I've based my version off of the Kylver Stone which is from around 400 CE and is the oldest known written sequence of the Elder Futhark. Some of the runes are a little different from what is commonly seen elsewhere. Perhaps this is a personal "handwriting" style, the runes hadn't been formalized in style, or even a mistake? The final symbol-- the tree-like one-- is not part of the Elder Futhark but thought to perhaps be a bindrune. For my version I have written each rune by hand with ink and a calligraphy brush then scanned it to make it truly unique!

The imagery of this design comes from an archaeological find of Mjolnir. Mjolnir-- or Mjölnir-- is the hammer of the god Thor in Norse mythology. Thor was a very popular god and hundreds of hammers representing Mjolnir have been discovered. I based my digital block print on one such find in Skane.

Based off various Celtic designs, I have recreated this triad of dragons in my own style.

Often referred to by many as a Triskelion, its earliest creation dates back to the Neolithic era, as it can be seen at the entrance of Newgrange, Ireland.

Some of these connotations include: life-death-rebirth, spirit-mind-body, mother-father-child, past-present-future, power-intellect-love and creation-preservation-destruction to name but a few.

The Eye of Horus is an ancient Egyptian symbol of protection, royal power, and good health. The eye is personified in the goddess Wadjet.

Wadjet was one of the earliest of Egyptian deities who later became associated with other goddesses such as Bast, Sekhmet, Mut, and Hathor. She was the tutelary deity of Lower Egypt and the major Delta shrine the "per-nu" was under her protection.
