ed-gold color represents the fiery gold of the rune’s energies; it is said to energize its holder and bring<br />

“good 1uck”- the positive working of energy in your personal sphere. Carnelian is also said to be an aid to<br />

fertility, and it is used traditionally as a protection against envy and strife, the woe-working aspects of<br />

fehu.<br />

Green tourmaline works well together with fehu, its swift- moving energies directing the life-force<br />

of fehu into the personal sphere. The green color is fitting when you think of the closeness of fehu to<br />

Freyr and Freyja. Green tourmaline is also associated with physical fertility, being used in modern times<br />

as an aid for female hormone problems.<br />

Amber is also connected with fehu, being a Freyja-associated twin to gold. It is said that Freyja’s<br />

tears turn to gold on the land and to amber on the sea. Amber’s energetic properties are visible on every<br />

plane, including the physical, where its energies are expressed as an electrical charge.<br />

Fehu: Meditation<br />

You stand in the middle of a furrowed field. The sun is setting in a blaze of red-gold fire on your<br />

right. The air is warm with spring. A soft, mild breeze blows your hair back, stirring your green tunic and<br />

cloak. As the sky gets darker, you can see little pinpricks of flame dancing over the soil. You know that<br />

this is May Eve, and the fire is burning over the flecks of gold in the earth.<br />

Far ahead of you, in the shadow of a hill, you see a ghostly blaze burning strongly, marking the<br />

place where a treasure lies buried. You walk across the field towards it, stepping lightly over the damp<br />

furrows. As you walk, you see the faint fiery shapes of women flying across the sky. These are followers<br />

of Freyja at their seidh-magic; they have left their woman-hides at home and are visible only as flashes of<br />

magical energy as they fly to their works. They pass closer and closer to you; you feel your hair prickling<br />

up with surges of power. Looking down, you see that you are also glowing with a faint flame under your<br />

skin.<br />

You reach the little rise in the ground where the fire burns most strongly. It tingles as you plunge<br />

your hands into the earth, filling you with the strength to dig more deeply. The soil comes away in great<br />

rich chunks until you reach a huge stone. You breathe deeply and the fire within you flares up as you lift<br />

the stone and easily toss it away. Beneath is a deep hollow filled with glowing red gold, and a gray<br />

serpent is coiled around it in slumber. You reach down carefully, but as soon as your bright aura touches<br />

the snake it raises its head and hisses at you. It brightens until you can hardly look at it glowing red as<br />

molten gold. You stretch out your arms, standing in the position of fehu, chanting: “Fehu-might flow /<br />

From gold’s grim worm-warder.<br />

“Your watchful strength stolen / Sleep now in silence!” As you chant, a stream of energy flows<br />

from the serpent into your upraised left arm until you are entirely filled with its fiery strength, and it drops<br />

its head in sleep, gray and drained.<br />

You reach into the hollow and take out the gold. Walking away, you scatter the pieces along the<br />

furrows like seed, a candle-flame burning over each coin. The blazing power that had filled you drains<br />

away slowly as you do this, until the entire hoard has been sown. Although you still feel full of life and<br />

strength, the urgent flaming might has flowed out of you.<br />

Looking back over your path, you see that the field has grown up where you walked and is now tall<br />

and green. An intense green fire seethes through the earth, pushing up new leaves even as you watch. The<br />

bonfires are springing up around the edges of the field. You can hear the sound of distant singing, and in<br />

the shadows cast by the flames, you can see young people coming together and moving off among the<br />

new green stalks of wheat. You raise your head and hands in thanks to Freyr and Freyja for what you<br />

have been given as you return to your own body, feet firmly planted on the earth, knowing that you can<br />

always draw upon this might through the rune fehu.<br />
