Haindl Tarot - Runes On Majors

Thread originally posted on the Aeclectic Tarot Forum on 13 Mar 2004, and now archived in the Forum Library.

northsea  13 Mar 2004 
Would someone please list the rune assignments on the Haindl tarot Majors? I don't have this deck, and want to compare it with the Barrett Norse tarot. (I noticed in a book that Haindl assigns Peorth to the Magician, which makes sense to me.)

Hi Tommy

Rune associations on Haindl are as follows:

Fool Wynn - meaning - Joy
Magician Peoh - Cattle
High Prietess Ur - Aurochs or Rain
Empress Thorn - Thorn
Emperor - Ansuz - Stag
Hierophant - Radh - Wheel
Lovers - Ken - Torch
Chariot - Hagall - Hailstone
Strength - Sigil - Sun
Hermit - Is - Ice
WOF - Jara or Ger - Year
Justice - Nyd - Neccesity
Hanged Man - Tyr - The Norse God of War
Death - Ba or Beorc - Birch Goddess
Alchemy - Laguz - Water
Devil - Eolh - Elk
Tower - Yr - Wrong
Star - Eh - Horse
Moon - Othal - Property
Sun - Gebo - Gift
Aeon - Peorth - Secret
Universe - Another form of Gebo - gift

I have quoted these straight from the book which was written by Rachel Pollack to accompany the deck. Hope it helps. If you need any more clarification. Please ask.

Hey Jewel-ry,

Thanks!

Hi tommy ... Could you post the rune correspondences from the Norse Tarot? It would be interesting to see them & compare them with the ones from the Haindl.

7-Chariot-Thorn-Thor
8-Justice-Lagu-what is laid or fixed, the law
9-Hermit-Eolh-protection
10-WOF-Rad-riding, traveling, knowledge
11-Strength-Ur-trials of strength
12-Hanged Man-Os-god, hero, Odin
13-Death-Yr-yew tree, death
14-Temperance-Beorc-rebirth, spring
15-Devil-Nyd-Neid, thralldom
16-Tower-Hagall-hail
17-Star-Cen-torch
18-Moon-Is-ice, winter
19-Sun-Winn-joy
20-Judgment-Ethel-inheritance, homeland
21-World-Mann-humankind

Doesn't the Rhorig also assign rune associations to the majors? 


Jewel-ry  14 Mar 2004 
Yes, the Rohrig does assign runes to the majors. I can list them if you want.

thanks again, Jewel-ry


edited to add that I noticed that Haindl assigns Peoh = cattle to the Magician. (The book author misread the Haindl rune, or commented on the Norse rune in the wrong place by accident.) I actually think the Peorth rune could connect with the High Priestess.
