The Norse Sigil Carried to Heal Body & Spirit is a bind rune (Icelandic: bandrún) is a ligature of two or more runes. They are extremely rare in Viking Age inscriptions, but are common in earlier (Proto-Norse) and later (medieval) inscriptions. On some runestones, bind runes may have been ornamental and used to highlight the name of the carver. Their use as magical amulets continued later in Iceland. We can find some examples of bind runes in Medieval manuscripts around the 1600s.
The famous Icelandic staves or Galdrastafir, such as the Vegvisir and Helm of Awe, are a combination of runes with magical purposes. Bindrunes are a symbol made up of two or more runes. These runes are “bound” together to form one ligature, combining their meanings to enhance their power. While many people attribute these symbols to the Viking era, they were rarely found during that time – with the exception of occasional use as signatures or maker’s marks on carved pieces. According to archaeological evidence, Bindrunes were more commonly used in the periods of time before and after the Viking era.
