Step 5 of 8 · Resources, Work and Generosity
Gebo
Why this step
Gebo is the gift. The entry describes an exchange that benefits both sides without anyone keeping score, and notes that the rune has no reversed form. Set beside the Hávamál stanzas, which say even the generous like a return, this is a real disagreement about what giving is for. The trail leaves it open.
