Not only was the birch tree a living representation of Purification & Regeneration, it was a personification of the Earth Mother. The swollen breasts and womb depicted on this rune are a constant reminder of the Fruitfulness & Renewal that our Earth Mother offers. Lost causes may be redeemed. New beginnings will flourish.
Magical use: As a rune of hidden transformations & growth, Beorc is particularly potent in all workings of Women’s Mysteries.
