Dagr is one of the twenty-five runes belonging to the Elder Futhark, and one of the symbols corresponding to the twenty-five Primes. In verse, it is a rune associated with Dawnstar Prime. It is the 24th member of the Elder Futhark. It represents the day, dawn, the sunrise, invisibility, awakening and awareness.

Dagaz
Dagaz (also Dagr or Daeg, literally "Day") is a rune that is associated with dawn, awakening, awareness, enlightenment, twilight/dawn polarity, conceptual realisation, synthesis, transmutation, the ideal and the reception of mythical wisdom. It is equated to the Latin letter D, or the letter Eth (ð).

Dagr, or Dagaz, was called Daeg in the Anglo-Saxon rune poem. Like Odal and many other runes, its name was from reconstructed Proto-Germanic. It is part of the Elder Futhark. This rune did not reappear in the Younger Futhark.

Like the rest of the Futhark, some Norse-Pagans hold Dagaz as an important/sacred symbol.
