Mannaz is the rune of archetypical man. It embodies all of human kind both male and female. Heimdallr, which is Odin in one of his many guises, gives the world of men three main social functions. The three functions are provider, warrior (protector) and Preist-King. This is a reflection of the divine structure. When Odin takes the form of Heimdallr it is his position as All-Father (Alfadhir).The Norsemen, as with many ancient tribes believed that their genetic structure was descended from their gods. So when Odin comes in the form of Heimdallr he is expressing this concept to the Norse people. The gods made the Germanic peoples. Mannaz reminds us of the runic structure of the souls of both men and women. Mannaz is the power of human intelligence, rationality, memory and tradition. Mannaz is the rune of perfected man, the complete human being. This implies a holistic attitude and a balanced individual. The person is considered having been initiated into the wisdom of the runes. It also stands for the institution of blood brotherhood.
