This Vegvísir print features the legendary Icelandic magical stave, also known as the Viking compass or Runic compass of protection. Deeply rooted in Norse pagan tradition, runic magic, and Icelandic grimoires, this symbol was believed to guide the traveler through storms and keep them from losing their way.
Available as a canvas wall art poster or on handmade paper for an antique, grimoire-like look, this piece is perfect for pagan altars, Viking-themed interiors, heathen home decor, or occult ritual spaces. Each print is delivered unframed, allowing you to choose a frame that matches your personal style – rustic, Nordic, or modern minimalist.
What the Artwork Depicts
The Vegvísir symbol is composed of eight rune-like staves radiating from a central circle, each branch carrying protective and guiding power. Rendered in bold black against an aged parchment background, this print evokes the appearance of an ancient magical manuscript, bringing with it the atmosphere of Norse mysticism, Viking magic, and Icelandic witchcraft.
Symbolism and Meaning
In Icelandic magical tradition, the Vegvísir is more than a decorative rune – it is a powerful protective stave. Its name translates to “That Which Shows the Way”, and in the Huld Manuscript (1860) it is described as a sign that will ensure the wearer never loses their path, even in stormy weather or hostile conditions.
The symbol carries multiple layers of meaning:
-
Guidance and Direction – ensures that one finds their way, both physically in travel and spiritually in life.
-
Protection in Journeys – a talisman for sailors, wanderers, and seekers, offering safety against storms, enemies, and misfortune.
-
Norse Pagan Belief – a magical stave tied to the old gods, embodying the Viking spirit of exploration, courage, and survival.
-
Runic Magic – part of Icelandic grimoire traditions, where symbols were charged with magical intent for protection and empowerment.
Today, the Vegvísir poster is cherished by pagans, heathens, Asatru practitioners, and lovers of Viking culture as a spiritual emblem and a piece of Nordic heritage art.
Historical and Cultural Background
The Vegvísir comes from Icelandic magical staves (galdrastafir), a tradition that blends Norse paganism, rune magic, and Christian mysticism. Its most famous appearance is in the Huld Manuscript, collected by Geir Vigfusson in 1860. Since then, it has become one of the most recognized symbols of Icelandic magic, alongside the Helm of Awe (Ægishjálmur).
With the revival of heathenry, Asatru, and Norse-inspired spirituality, the Vegvísir has grown into a modern pagan symbol of faith, identity, and guidance – equally used as tattoos, altar symbols, Viking decor, and occult prints.
