This Hyperborean variety of the Elder Futhark is based on the “Long Runic Row” or “Holy Row” and points back to the Arctic tradition where each rune represents a specific place in the day, year, and life of the people. Therefore, the aetts run left to right, replicating the procession of the sun from the east to west as well as its counterclockwise cycle from the winter solstice (on the bottom of the circle, in the south) through the vernal equinox (the east) to the summer solstice (the north), on to the fall equinox (the west) and finally back to the winter solstice where the cycle starts anew.
