For those of you that wish to draw a relationship between the
correspondences of Aleister Crowley's 777, Astrological symbols,
and Runes the above table has been provided for you.
This information was taken from an article titled "Rune
Correspondences" by Donald Tyson from Llewellyn's 1991 Magickal
Almanac. As is the following definitions.
Feoh - means cattle, and Taurus represents a cow or bull.
Ur - stands for aurochs, an extinct wild beast of Northern Europe
with curling ramlike horns that was a symbol of masculine potency
among the Germans.
Thorn - is the name of an evil giant, and Scorpio is considered
the most malefic of the zodiac signs; both are barbed and venomous.
Os - is the name of the wise and eloquent god of magic, Woden.
Mercury has from classical times been linked with Woden through his day,
Wednesday.
Rad - means a journey on horseback or quest for enlightenment,
well suited to the nature of the horse-archer Sagittarius.
Ken - signifies a torch or beacon, what Spirit is to the soul.
Gyfu - means gift or sacrifice, once offered to and requested
from the sky god Jupiter, who is linked with Thor.
Wyn - is glory or joy, in harmony with the pride and sense of
personal well-being associated with Leo.
Haegl - means hail, a stony destructive force well in keeping
with the cold and relentless nature of Capricorn.
Nyd - is necessity and the will to endure it, reflected in the
scale that traditionally weighs out the value of grains and other
necessities of life.
Is - or ice, matches the cold blackness, the hardness, and the
secretiveness and power of concealment of Saturn.
Ger - signifies the turning of seasons, which is heralded in
Nature by whirling temperature shifts in the Air.
Eoh - or yew, signifies the reliability and sturdy value of yew
wood, just as Cancer stands for protectiveness and support.
Peord - or apple, is luxury and display, well-suited to Venus.
Eolh - a sign for warding off evil, matches the defensiveness and
withdrawing instincts of Virgo.
Sigel - Sun, more specifically refers to the active power of the
Sun - its burning energy or Fire.
Tyr - another name for the god Tew, as in Tuesday, is associated
with Mars.
Beorc - or birch, signifies birth, growth, physical health, and
healing, the qualities of the Moon.
Eh - horse, abstractly is the mainfest vehicle for the will of
man and is here represented by Pisces, a sign of intuition and emotion.
Man, or mankind, is represented by Aquarius with its associations
of human intellect and will.
Lagu - means Water in all its forms.
Ing - is a god of the family and the hearth, represented here by
the siblings of Gemini.
Daeg - means light of day, which emanates from the Sun.
Ethel - is native land, the hereditary Earth.
