*Berkanan, Beorc, or Bjarkan - the eighteenth rune of the Elder Futhark and Futhorc; the thirteenth of the Younger Futhark. While its name looks like it means 'birch', it really refers, in Old Norse to a twig and in Old English to another tree.

Tyr, Tiw, or *Tiwaz - the seventeenth rune of the Elder Futhark and Futhorc, and the twelfth of the Younger Futhark. It refers to the Norse god that sacrificed his hand to delay Ragnarok. But in Old English, it refers to a guiding star.

*Algiz, Eohlx-, or Yr, is the fifteenth rune of the Elder Futhark and Futhorc; the sixteenth of the Younger Futhark. Truthfully, it should probably be seen as three different runes. Two name meanings are; 'elk' (or a sharp grass); and 'yew'.

Peorth, or *Pertho is the fourteenth rune of the Elder Futhark and Futhorc. What its name means is a mystery - Throat? Apple Tree? Game piece? Whatever it is, it's tangentially associated with joy.

Gyfu, or *Gebo - the seventh rune of the Elder Futhark, Younger Futhark and Futhorc. Its name is taken to mean 'gift', but it more refers to the concept of 'generosity' - the act of giving a gift, rather than the gift itself.

Redcaps are viciously quick creatures but seem to prefer hurling large stones at those who trespass in a Redcaps lair. It is said they can be chased away with words of scripture, or permanently dealt with by brandishing a crucifix at them. #MythologyMonday 🩸

[Mythology Multiverse @MythMultiverse]

The Redcap, of Anglo-Scottish folklore, earns its name from its crimson cap which this murderous goblin dips in the blood of its victims. Should the blood on its cap dry up, the Redcap will fall dead. 1/2 #MythologyMonday🩸

[Guthlac @GuthlacYT]

Kaun, Cen, or *Cenaz or *Kaunaz - the sixth rune of the Elder Futhark, Younger Futhark, or Anglo-Frisian Futhorc. In Old Norse, its name means 'ulcer' - likely referring to small pox. In Old English, it means 'torch'.
