Description:

This swap is about Runes. They fascinate me, but I don't like the Anglo-Saxon version, so I want to use the Germanic/Norse version of the Elder Futhark.

Once partners are assigned, you will find the rune that is used for their birth date. For instance, mine is Jera. Using one of the characteristics of Jera, Harvest, you would create me an ATC, a Skinny, or a card that had something to do with Harvest. The symbol for the rune must be on whatever you chose (ATC, Skinny, or card).. Using harvest as an example, your ATC, Skinny or card will have things that have to do with Courage and you would put the symbol for Jera somewhere on the ATC, Skinny or card. That's it.

Here are the Runic birth date associations:

Runes and Zodiac

Fehu - Wealth- Cancer

Uruz- Strength- Cancer and Leo

Thurisaz- Protection- Leo

Ansuz- Communication- Leo and Virgo

Raidio- Journey- Virgo

Kano- Fire- Virgo and Libra

Gebo- Gift- Libra

Hagalaz- Hail- Scorpio

Nauthiz- Need- Scorpio and Sagittarius

Isa -Ice- Sagittarius

Jera- Year- Sagittarius and Capricorn

Eihwaz- Endings- Capricorn

Perth or Pertho- Capricorn and Aquarius

Algiz- Defender- Aquarius

Sowelu-Sun- Aquarius and pisces

Teiwaz- Pisces

Berkana- Growth- Pisces and Aries

Ehwaz- Change- Aries

Laguz- Water- Taurus

Mannaz- Humanity- Aries and Taurus

Inguz- Beginnings- Taurus and Gemini

Othila- Homeland- Gemini

Dagaz- Awakening- Gemini and Cancer

Wunjo- Joy- Libra and Scorpio

These are not the only associations. Depending on what culture the Vikings influence hit, the letter association as well as the birth date association can vary, but this swap, the above associations is what we will use. Remember, there are other word associations for each rune besides what I have posted.

@Maggie249 since you are a pisces your single sign would be Teiwaz, according to this chart. Your shared Runes would be Berkana and Sowelu. Your partner can use any of the three. @Faeorian your single sign is Hagalaz, but your shared signs are Nauthiz and Wunjo. Your partner can use any of the three. My single rune, according to this chart is ISA (but in all other charts it isn't), and my shared runes are Nauthiz and Jera. My partner can use any of these three.

@misseslela you are an Aries, so your single Rune would be Ehwaz (according to this chart) and your shared rune signs are Mannaz and Berkana. Your parnter can use any of the three.

Just a note. If you want to represent your rune on something other than a skinny, ATC, or a card, such as a Tag or bigger medium, it is perfectly alright. I wanted to leave the how up to the creators.

Would crocheted items work for this challenge? Or does it have to be a 2D medium?

Yes, a crocheted item would qualify (see note above), but also check with partners without giving up what you are creating.
