Othala Rune

holistic rune meanings and correspondences for the elder futhark rune othala

Othala – Rune of Home and Inheritance

What home means to one person is not what home means to another. However, the more evolved the soul, the more refined the definition of the true meaning of home. Lightworkers are typically born with the knowledge that their true home is not of earthly origins. To them, home and homeland are not words that hold the power to divide because they don’t subscribe to the tribal definitions of these words. 

To the Lightworker, Heaven is home and there is but one nation of men. Lightworkers revere Gaia the way nationalists revere the Motherland… but they usually don’t even stop there. They realise that Gaia is but one of the Star nations and there are nations that are far more evolved. Many Lightworkers come from Star nations that have ascended to the 5th dimension and beyond.

Ultimately, the soul realises that we all share the same home – Mother-Father God, the source of all light and love from which we were all born and to whom we all return.

Hence there is no need to be dismayed by this rune’s nationalist use among those who seek to debase the truth because they are ruled by fear and greed rather than unconditional love. We are here on a mission to reclaim the truth and one day they will see the truth through the eyes of the heart. If we wish to speed up their ascension, we must embrace those who seek division with loving thoughts and be homing beacons for the Truth.

Stripped back meaning based on the actual word and shape

The shape of this rune is that of the Inguz rune on legs. Infinite potential has taken root and grown into a single point, individual, home, nation or planet.

The old Norse term Othala is known as ‘odal’ in Swedish. Odal is inherited land and property that has been passed down through many generations. According to outdated laws, odal land could not be divided upon the death of the owner.  An ‘odalsman’ is a person who owns this type of property.

Because Othala is associated with inherited property, it has come to mean fixed wealth as opposed to the moveable wealth of the Fehu rune.

  1. Beautiful article. I studied Runes with a Wicca teacher who learnt reading in Norway. My approach is more shamanic than lightworker, but I am a Starseed and appreciate the Spiritual interpretation. Will try the spread too. A note: you can add to your practice a Crystal, which could be Smoky Quartz, Keyword Grounding.
