6th Day of Yule – Remembering the Noble Virtue of Fidelity
We must remain loyal to who and what we are. We must be faithful to our obligations and duties. Those around us need to have the ability to take us at our word. Our word needs to be our bond. Our handshake needs to seal the deal. The devotion to our deeds must be of utmost importance.

AM Elder Rune: Gebo: The mystical union of gift and giver, repay gift for gift, a fair exchange between people or gods and the Luck that accompanies it; freely exchanged, contracts, relationships, sometimes sexual, sacrifice, and hospitality, do not take more than we are willing to give, the voluntary sacrifice of resources.

AM Armanen Rune: Tyr:
Havamal 156.
A twelfth one I sing, when I see through the brush
The hanged one swinging from the hemp;
He climbs down from the trunk, must tell me his tale
When I carve the Runes right.
Rebirth, renewal, rising from the ashes, excitation, mysteries revealed, sacrifice, rebirth of the Sun god, fertility and/or destruction, generation, power, success, wisdom, duties fulfilled, art of concealment and hiding, rebirth into the light - life of the soul, the power to make situations turn completely around, wisdom, spiritual understanding, the power of regeneration, warrior strength, justice, balance, personal sacrifice of the father, resurrection/reincarnation/born again; “Do not fear anything, even dying cannot kill you. Better to die than to be dead alive” (Gorsleben).
“Fear not death - it cannot kill you (List, 58).
