«Younger Futhark name: Bjarkan»
«Anglo-Saxon name: Beorc»
«Also known as: Berkana, Berkano»
The names of this rune come from the Old Germanic berkana and Old Norwegian bjarkan, meaning “birch twig,” and Old English beorc, “birch tree.” Like the birch tree, this rune relates to fertility, growth, and new beginnings. With nurturing energy, Berkanan aids both actual and symbolic growth. It is especially supportive when seeking rebirth of the spirit or any form of personal blossoming. Berkanan advises patience and clarity of purpose. Draw this rune on a piece of paper or paint it on an amulet to wear during shamanic work.
When selected for divination or guidance, Berkanan may be telling you that growth sometimes needs to be coaxed. With gentleness and patience, whether it is a situation or relationship, or even an aspect of life, it will bloom and grow at the appropriate time. The crystals citrine, green tourmaline, and moonstone aid in working with the energy of this rune.
