Reference
Rune correspondences.
Colours, plants, stones, trees and weekdays to pair with each rune in spells, altars and candle work.
Honest label: these are modern teaching aids: Fehu's own suggestions built from each rune's meaning and later folklore. The medieval rune poems do not list herbs or crystals. Swap in whatever means something to you. * = can interact with medicines, pregnancy or skin; don't ingest any plant without a qualified professional's advice.
