Perthro – Rune of the Seer
The Perthro rune signifies the state of being receptive to divine messages, prophecy and revelation. It is the rune of the Tarot Reader, Oracle Witch and Prophetess. It tells us that we are missing important information unless we allow guidance to arise from within and pay attention to signs and synchronicities.
Stripped back meaning based on the actual word and shape
The shape of the rune is a die cup (or lot cup) on its side. Gambling and casting lots were almost interchangeable in Viking times. Being lucky when gambling meant you were fate was on your side. Personally, I believe the shape combines with the word ‘perthro’ to mean portal or gateway (port in modern Swedish). This is the gateway through which we receive subtle messages from the unseen realm. Casting lots is certainly one way of making this connection. However, if someone abuses this practice to gamble or to prove that they are ‘luckier’ than someone else, there will be a distortion of any message that wants to come through.
The intent has to be pure.
On its side, this rune means that the information is being disseminated into the world, pointing the way to the future. When it is reversed, it is pointing to the past, asking us to learn from past patterns and integrate the learning from past lessons before we are ready to move on.

Divinatory Meanings
General: divination, casting of lots, being a conduit for divine revelations, receptivity, prophecy, spiritual gifts, divine inspiration, clairvoyance, the sacred feminine – Reversed: a need to learn from the past, not seeing the bigger picture, feeling disconnected from Source
Love & relationships: if speaking of the nature of the relationship, it is one where both people are hoping the other will take the initiative, if speaking of the love interest, it is likely that they are a mystic and/or seer, sacred fellowship, kindred spirits – Reversed: fortune-telling, old patterns of relating are keeping the Seeker stuck in a rut, need for cord cutting, karmic bonds, lack of understanding about one’s own role in failing relationships, failing to connect or show one’s true self to others
Health/wellbeing: being primed as a channel for divine messages to come through, flexible mind, agile body, well hydrated, good speaking voice – Reversed: dehydration, rigidity, throat problems, psychological problems that stem from seeing oneself as a victim, cognitive impairment, inability to problem-solve
Business: a business for and/or by women, a tarotpreneur or psychic business owner – Reversed: a need for more information and understanding trends before making a business decision, a charlatan
