All stained and done ✨

It started off in honour of the Fehu rune, but felt like it ought to include Algiz as well

FLOURISH BINDRUNE

Inspired by trees that grow from scorched soil and smoke rising from a hearth-pot. Good for protection and reaping the bounty of hard work.

Do you know of any resources that list historical instances of bind runes? As in, like the triple (or sometimes more) stacked (tiwaz? tyr?) rune that looks like a tree, among others? When I try to search this online, I come up with almost exclusively modern creations, but I’m wondering how often this happened in the general past and what it looked like? Maybe bind rune isn’t even the correct historical term—I don’t know. Any insight you could provide would be great, thank you!

I expect that Bind-runes: An Investigation of Ligatures in Runic Epigraphy by Mindy Macleod would probably be exactly what you're looking for, but I haven't read it myself, so I can't guarantee.

The second-best idea that occurs to me is to just go through Texts and Contexts of the Oldest Rune Inscriptions by Tineke Looijenga with a ctrl+f find "bindrune." This only covers Elder Futhark.

The vast majority of bindrunes prior to the early modern period that we have a record for are simple ligatures of two, sometimes three runes, like ᛮ a͡l, and in most works about runes those aren't really treated differently from the much rarer, more complicated ones, which makes it harder to use search tools to find them. Complex bindrunes that are more than just simple ligatures are exceptionally rare in the Elder Futhark.

These are a type that Looijenga calls "cross-runes," which might be the only repeated "type" of bindrune in the Elder Futhark other than simple ligatures:

Really complex ones are far more prevalent in Icelandic manuscripts from the early modern era. In Runologia, his short book/long essay about runes, Grunnavíkur-Jón (1705-1779) has a few sections on composing bindrunes. Runologia is a weird combination of an academic work in the tradition of Ole Worm, Icelandic vernacular practice, and vernacular reappropriation of academic work; all of this makes it very interesting but difficult to use for tracing the historical precedent of anything in it. It's hard to say whether he was recording a widespread practice or systematizing something he had a vague idea of.

I have a post with a couple of examples here: https://thorraborinn.tumblr.com/post/682508486233440256/how-do-you-make-bind-runes-without-using-elder

Bindrune designs made as a gift for MGMags on dA, with his username and initials. Engraved in glass with a Dremel and diamond burrs; coloured in with porcelain paints.

[Image description (because apparently at some point I adjusted this in the old editor and can no longer add alt text on the image itself?) starts here: Two decorative glass stones, black in colour. The one at lower left is teardrop-shaped, oriented with the small point up. The one at top right is oval in shape, oriented vertically. Each one is engraved with a different bindrune design. The one at lower left is coloured with metallic silver paint, and the one at top right is coloured with metallic copper paint. End description.]

These famous six bindrune-like galdrastafir containing mostly names of Óðinn appear in a less stylized form in Lbs. 423 fol. 331v (18th century; above). Below is more like how they normally appear, from the notes of folklorist Jónas Jónasson. It isn't clear whether the scribe of Lbs. 423 fol. is an independent witness to a variant or if this was an attempt to de-stylize something like the image at the bottom. It still isn't entirely clear what the relationship of the staves is to the underlying words but it's somewhat easier to believe that there is one.

The staves in Lbs. 423 fol. come right after Buslubæn written almost entirely in runes. The scribe uses an unusual set of characters. For example, rather than ᚦ for Icelandic þ, the scribe uses a bindrune of ᛐ and ᚼ.

Buslubæn is a curse in verse form from Bósa saga (in which it appears in this manuscript). The Norwegian stoner doom band Golden Core set it to music: https://goldencore.bandcamp.com/track/buslub-n

The Runes of Hávamál - The first Spell I know

As I am working my way through the Aett’s and prepare for a talk on the use of Runes in divination and magic I’ve extended my research to examples of bind runes and staves in the textual record. My (unoriginal) idea was to see if texts such as the Hávamál referred to Odin’s acquisition of the Runes in such a way which would lead to the construction of Rune Staves. As ever I am following in the…
