Fashioned out of sterling silver, this large rune compass is based on an Icelandic magical symbol called Vegvísir. This roughly translates as ‘guidepost’ and the symbol is first found in a late 16th century Icelandic book of spells known as Galdrabók. It is also found in the Huld Manuscript, which states: 'if this sign is carried, one will never lose one’s way’.

“The Heaven-World of the ancient Celts, unlike that of the Christians, was not situated in some distant, unknown region of planetary space, but here on our own earth. As it was necessarily a subjective world, poets could only describe it in terms more or less vague; and its exact geographical location, accordingly, differed widely in the minds of scribes from century to century. Sometimes, as is usual to-day in fairy-lore, it was a subterranean world entered through caverns, or hills, or mountains, and inhabited by many races and orders of invisible beings, such as demons, shades, fairies, or even gods. And the underground world of the Sidhe-folk, which cannot be separated from it, was divided into districts or kingdoms under different fairy kings and queens, just as the upper world of mortals.”

Edit: yes I know this is the Mr Darcy Hand Clench Thing from Pride and Prejudice (2005), that’s why I made this entire post. I didn’t think it was going to get 15,000 notes out of context of people who know that I know that Mr Darcy did that thing with his hand.
