The Viking Compass is known as the vegvisir, which means signpost or wayfinder. It is an old icelandic sigil for protection and finding your way through rough weather. In the Huld Manuscript where this symbol is described, it says "If this sign is carried, one will never lose one's way in storms or bad weather, even when the way is not known."
The Runic inscription is English transliterated into runes and reads "Not all who wander are lost. Journey Well!"
