Vegvísir Symbol - The Norse Compass of Protection and Guidance #3832321 (License: Personal Use)

The Vegvísir is a legendary Icelandic magical stave documented in the 19th-century Huld Manuscript, traditionally inscribed on travelers to ensure they never lose their way, even in harsh weather or unfamiliar terrain. Its eight symmetrical arms radiate from a central circle, each adorned with unique rune-like sigils that evoke Norse cosmology and protective magic. Though not part of the original Elder Futhark, it has become a popular emblem in modern pagan, Heathen, and neo-Viking cultural expressions.
