What does the Vegvisir symbol mean?
The word Vegvisir means “way finder” or “signpost” in Icelandic and the Vegvisir symbol is believed to give guidance and protection to the wearer.
Tradition has it that the ancient Norse people believed that wearing a Vegvisir symbol would help them to find their way back home safely, and Viking ships were thought to bear the Vegvisir to ensure a successful homecoming.
What’s the history of the symbol?
Today, the Vegvisir is closely associated with the Vikings and the ancient Norse people.
However, the first recorded depiction and description of it is in the Icelandic Huld Manuscript, which was written in 1860 – several hundred years after the Viking age.
The manuscript was written in Icelandic by Geir Vigfússon, and states “If this sign, called the Vegvisir (way-shower, or way pointer), is carried, one will never lose one’s way in storms or bad weather, even when the way is not known”.
There are no known depictions of the Vegvisir before this date: the symbol has not been found on any Viking rune stones or cave drawings, nor has any Viking jewelry ever been excavated that depicts it.
