Eihwaz

yew · Rune 13 of 24 in the Elder Futhark

Meaning

Endurance in the crossing. An uncomfortable position that has to be held all the way — there is no getting out of it halfway.

Set the date you will hold out to, and do not fidget until then. One does not leave a crossing from the middle.

This rune looks the same either way up, so it has no reversed position.

The second eight: what puts you to the test — cold, need, waiting
