The magical rune row Utharken

Norse myth & sagas with Sigrdrifa - A podcast by SIGRDRIFA

This presentation is about the magical rune row Utharken.There was an author and poet born in Värmland , Sweden, in 1881, worked in Lund and died there in 1937 by the name Sigurd Agrell. He is perhaps best known for his runological work and theories. He presented the ”Uthark theor”, therefor the old Utharken is better known as ”the magical rune row”.He focuses on rune magic and gematria. He was well-versed in Roman and Greek mythology and had excellent knowledge about the Indo-European mythologies as well as Norse mythology. The book ”Lapptrummor och Runmagi" is one of the books that Sigurd Agrell wrote about rune magic and I take information from that book when I briefly try to describe the 24 runes in the magic rune row Utharken, it’s about the symbol, the numerical and the sound value plus its connection with Norse and Indo-European mythologies.
