ᚢ Uruz

Uruz takes its name and shape from the aurochs, the massive wild ox that once roamed Europe — an animal too powerful to fully domesticate, unlike the cattle of Fehu just before it. Where Fehu is managed wealth, Uruz is the raw, unmanaged force underneath it.

Under this rune, the traditional read is physical vitality and a kind of stamina that doesn't wait for permission — strength that's instinctive rather than trained. It's a demanding sign as much as a powerful one: the aurochs' strength was also its undoing once hunted to extinction, a reminder that raw force still needs some direction to last.
