It so closely resembles the rune Algiz... and reversed (as it is plastered all over everyone's cars and t-shirts) it just reinforces vulnerability.

We all remember Runes on a visceral level because they are in the collective conscious, so having a bunch of people marching against war carrying signs which relay the message of vulnerability is like ice skating up hill.

I am building a boat and for the last year and half i have no idea what to call it and i am only a week or so from launch?
Thank you conjuredUp i followed your link and found Sowelu http://www.mystic-mouse.co.uk/Runes/Sowelu.htm This symbol is going on the front of my boat.
Here is the poem for that rune.
The Rune Poem - Verse XVI
The Sun is the hope of the seafarer
As they move across the fishes bath,
'til the sea-steed brings them to land.

I cant tell you how much this fits my boat!! This is her name
