Yr

Yr is the letter y

Anglo Saxon Rune Poem

Yr is a source of joy and honour to every prince and knight;
it looks well on a horse and is a reliable equipment for a journey.

Most runic enthusiasts translate Yr as a bow (that thing you shoot arrows from, you know.)

Yr relates to skill, ability and finesse. Sometimes, it indicates the skill that you have in nursing yourself back to health.
