Rune Meanings
The main source of runic meaning comes from the Anglo-Saxon, Norwegian, & Icelandic Rune Poems, with an element derived from runic inscriptions, found on various items such as jewelry, runestones, weapons, coins, boxes, urns, & various bone & wood. Most inscriptions are mundane; however, some were used as charms. The Anglo-Saxon poem was likely composed in the 600s, the Norwegian in the 1200s, & the Icelandic in the 1400s, thus making the Anglo-Saxon the oldest of the three. The *Kauną rune is sometimes known as *kenaz, from the Anglo-Saxon Ċén rune meaning “Torch”, but sometimes represented Ċéne “Bold”. Representing the letter K, the Elder Fuþark has ᚲ & the Younger Fuþark ᚴ while the Anglo-Saxon fuþorċ ᚳ represented the ch sound. An interesting note is the Scandinavian use of the rune. As Ċen wasn’t a Norse word, they represented it by via their nearest corresponding sound, kaun (a boil or scab), which bears witness of the Anglo-Saxon origin of the old Norse Runic poem.

Sources
Let’s look at sources which document our religion. The Poetic Edda & Skaldic poetry are primary sources upon which we build our Faith. After these, secondary sources should be used when they don’t contradict the primary sources. Examples include Prose Edda, Béowulf, Tacitus’ Germania, Saxo Grammaticus’s Gesta Danorum, Norse Sagas, Bede’s An Ecclesiastical History of the English People, Jacob Grimm’s Teutonic Mythology & Viktor Rydberg’s Investigations into Germanic Mythology. Third, we can know the gods by studying the culture & traditions of our forebears. Examples include Vilhelm Grønbech’s The Culture of the Teutons & Paul Du Chaillu’s The Viking Age: the early history, manners, and customs of the ancestors of the English speaking nations. Next, linguistics opens up a world of understanding. Our faith is encoded within our speech & examining our ancient words shine light on previously hidden understandings. Not all, but these are main sources to learn from

On the Subject of Fate & Castes
There always seems to be a struggle, in the minds of folks, to rationalize fate; boil it down to a simple & concise explanation. Do we have near-total free will? If so, then fate is watered down. Is fate ever pervasive & all-controlling? If so, then we’re all automatons. Reality however, is usually in between. Fate is neither good nor bad, but neutral. In some things, we are controlled; others maybe not. If we are fated to have a bad outcome or go through trials, then it is so. If we give up, then it indicates our lower position, but if we strive for better in spite of the odds, then it indictates our higher position. Our actions & mentality will prove where we stand. Look inside your soul & discover your place. If you don’t strive for better, to learn & grow, to achieve greatness, ask yourself why? If you do, than may the gods continue to bless.
Faraþ ġesunde; be well.

Fatalism holds that events are subjected to predetermined actions. In Vǫluspá, the Norns established laws, allotted life & established orlay (destiny), so as such, we submit to the will of the Norns & Gods. Fate & prophecy pervades our religion, as evidenced in the poems, sagas & myths; therefore, we affirm that predeterminism & fate are of natural law. There is no radical free will; however, limited free will, or soft fatalism, emerges from our ancient texts. An example of a Hnefatafl game, we acknowledge the predetermined nature of the game's rules & limited choices in moves. Players retain limited autonomy & decision-making; still possessing freedom to select moves & devise strategies. External factors & opponent moves influence the game, but the choices & decisions made carry significance & shape the game’s happenings, despite that the final outcome is predetermined. This exemplifies how fatalistic thought allows the interplay between predetermined parameters & outcomes & our free will

Fate: Predetermined Events or our Death Date?
Some say that fate is predetermined actions and events; others say it’s just our death-date. Let’s look at some words to glean insight.
Wyrd, f., fate, destiny. From Proto-Germanic *wurdiz, f., fate, destiny. from Proto-Indo-European *wert-, to turn.
Orlay, from Old English orlæġ, n., fate, destiny. From Proto-Germanic *uzlagą, n., fate, destiny. Itself from *uz-, out, + *lagą, situation, law. Orlay: from the law. What law? The first law; natural law.
In & of themselves, strictly linguistical, one could argue both viewpoints; however, we must view words from within the context in which they’re used. To do otherwise is intellectually faulty. One example is the Old English déaþwyrda, f., death-fates, i.e. death-events.
If fate only refers to our death, then déaþwyrda (deathweirds) becomes redundant. Why would our forbears have a word that’s saying death-death or die-die? It makes no sense.

For even the gods are subjected to fate.
In the woeful tale of Baleday's death, foreboding dreams foretell his fate. Woden, driven by forlornness, seeks answers, giving even his eye and beseeching Wyrd herself for knowledge of the future. Despite Friye's pleas to protect their son, fate remains unchangeable. Woden, the foremost god and utmost of wisdom, finds himself powerless against the unswayable hand of fate. Even his utmost awareness, gained by the giving of his eye, proves lacking to alter the course of fate. Even the mightiest of gods is humbled by the unstoppable force of fate.

Summer Time Is Upon Us
The Anglo-Saxons observed, as well as Folcsidish Sedians today, the Germanic system of timekeeping of two seasons: winter & summer, as seen in various Old English poems (like Beowulf, The Wanderer, & The Seafarer). As late as the 1200s, as seen in the song 'Sumer is icumen in', the lyrics suggest that "sumer" meant springtime; thus, "sumer" encompassed a longer period. Winter began on the Winterfilling (October) full moon, which incorporates Fall, thus summer begins on the Easter Month (April) full moon, which incorporates spring. For informational purposes, the Latinate seasons were Fall (Weed month 7th to Blot month 6th), Winter (Blot month 7th to Sun month 6th), Spring (Sun month 7th to Three Milks month 8th) & summer (Three Milks month 9th to Weed month 6th (Bosworth-Toller). Within Folcsidish Sedianism, summer begins with three blots: Easter, *Sey, & Wyrd’s blot.
* Sey being the Modern English form of Old English Siġe, see Easter month.

Easter, a Dawn Goddess Honored
In times of yore, Easter month (April) & Three Milks month (May) marked the onset of summer for the Saxons; both those dwelling in Britain or Germany. They celebrated Baleday (Bældæġ). It’s believed the origins of the May Pole involved the spear dancing reenacting the fatal game that led to his death.
Conversely, the Angles of Northumbria & Mercia, heralded summer's arrival by honoring Éastre, a goddess of the dawn. Originating from what we now know as Denmark, they revered their homeland, as their national anthem sings, a land graced by ancient beech trees and salty shores, deemed “Frejas” hall. Today, the May Pole in likely includes her honorings, such as white-clad dancing maidens stringing colorful ribbons.
As the Angles & Saxons became one folk over times, many of their traditions entwined.
On this full moon evening of Éastreblót, we blót for peace, prosperity, fertility, & abundance, as safeguards against the perils of war, strife, and hardship.

Siġeblót, Victory Blot
[Inglingasagu] mentions a summer-day victory blót to Wóden, who grants strength & victory. Losing brings peril & endangers oneself, family, & folk. Adam of Bremen records [Wóden] carries on war & imparts to man strength against his enemies. In [Hundesléoþ] we are told he “gives victory to some & wealth to others”. [Héanmæðel] 156: speaks of leading friends into battle using victory [ġealdor] for safety. The Ealdfæder gives victory; evident from his names: [Siġefæder] Father of Victory, [Siġeġyfa] Giver of Victory & [Siġegod] God of Victory. However, as a martial god, as one who serves as a priest over battles & is the Prince of Temples, Tíw is mentioned in [Siġedrífemæðel], “[Siġerúne] shall you know, if you will have victory, & rist on the sword’s hilt, some on the ridge, some on the blade, and twice name [Tíw].” As summertide dawns, may Wóden and Tíw give us victory in the struggles & battles that await.

There are many people who, for whatever reason, will try to insist that there is one "true" way to be Heathen. The thing is, that, that's simply not true.
As an ethnic spirituality, it all comes down to two very simple principles:
ᛟ If you’re of Germanic ancestry (Deutschblütig or “of Germanic blood”), then you are Heathen; and
ᛟ If you are honoring the Germanic gods (that is to say, the gods of your Germanic ancestors), your Germanic ancestors themselves, and your Germanic folk traditions, then what you are doing is essentially Heathen.
Ultimately, nothing else really matters.
