Gebo is shaped like an X, two lines meeting in balance. It's the rune of gifts, fair exchange and partnership, whether in love, friendship or business. Its lesson is that healthy relationships flow both ways.
Reversed (merkstave): This rune looks the same either way up, so it has no reversed meaning.

Rune reading is a reflective practice rooted in Norse and Germanic tradition. It doesn't predict a fixed future. You're always the one who decides.
