Ingwaz ᛜ

Ingwaz; the god Ing.

There is no surviving Icelandic rune poem for ingwaz.

Ing, or Yngvi, was an early form of the name of the god Freyr, associated with kingship, fertility, peace, prosperity, fair weather, and good harvest. Ingwaz is a life-affirming rune, with connotations of the release of energy in positive, fruitful ways; it is linked to fertility rites.

In rune casts it was taken as a sign of health, wellbeing, and the unleashing of potential. It signifies intuition and inspiration. There is no inversion.
