Term: Isa
| DEFINITIONS |
Isa: The 11th rune of the Elder Futhark, representing the letter i. As the name of this rune implies, ISA signifies a cessation of activities—a freeze. All plans should be put on hold for the moment to be resumed at a more auspicious time.

Isa: Isa is the third rune of the second aett. Like the first two runes in this aett, Isa is also associated with an element—the element of ice. Water is fluid; ice is solid and static. Isa therefore represents the principle of preservation and resistance to change.
