Runestone of Bensafrim - Portugal

(August 29, 2023) This text is talking about how fate can interfere with astrology-magic.

The original stele was discovered in 1882 in the town courtyard centered around the Old Fountain of Bensafrim, Portugal by archaeologists Estácio da Veiga and Santos Rocha. Bensafrim is a former civil parish in the city of Lagos on the southern coast of Portugal. In 2013, the parish merged into the new parish Bensafrim e Barão de São João.

The runes T and E are unique (so far) in that their cross lines are doubled. In contrast, Ḫ has no cross lines being just a box.

Its find was published by J. Leite de Vasconcellos in "The Portuguese Archaeologist III, 7. 1893."

In English

Splitting-off the time-keeper (Su) can hit the revelations (of fate). Fertility-fluids make rainstorms. Those can hit Kate/Hekate's veil of the Reed-boat (Ayu). Considerations (focused emotions of emotion magic) can energize Alu. Yahu (E') is being split-off from proper-allocations.
Revelations can result in emotional-affects. Revelations can result in network-birds. Energize those life-thread-powers. Support the waters. Reveal the emanations with astrology-magic which foreshadow Hu.
Astrology-magic can water Yahu (E'). Eagle-vultures can fool that. The shepherd's (astrology-magic crafters) motion-powers can be ineffective. So monitor the waters. Astrology-magic can replace the waters.
