Pronunciation: rye-though

Raidho is the Rune of journeys and travel. Similar to the Paths card in Lenormand, it is more about the road you choose to walk than the destination. Raidho is thought to resemble travel by horse, but more recently has been adapted to the wheel.

These next 9 runes are not a part of the traditional Elder Futhark system but are a part of the expanded Anglo-Sax.on Runes. These Runes began to be implemented around the 5th century.
