The Rune Site1) on the Elder Futhark Isa:

Like an icicle formed at the start of winter, with this rune we can only wait until the warmth of the sun allows us to be free from a constricting form. Isa represents a halt in activity until a change is made.

The Rune Site2) on the Younger Futhark Iss:

Ice is unchanging and restricting and like ice this rune embodies the resistant power that tries to prevent change.

The Rune Site3) on the Gothic:

This rune represents an icicle, symbolizing unchanging existence.
