October 14, 2010 – Khalk reversed

Khalk reversed

Khalk is the letter k

There is no rune poem for khalk. It is a Northumbrian Rune.

Khalk reversed signifies that our hopes, our dreams, our desires, are poured out, spilled upon the ground. Maybe we realize something is just unattainable, in our current situation, or part of it has been grasped, and now is the time to move on to something else, because we realize that we don’t desire it any longer.

Alternately, we can be lost in our dreams and desires, just having them, but failing to act upon them or pursue them. We might instead look to fill ourselves with other things, because we are not pursuing what we really need. Addiction, distractions, anything to escape from the aching hunger of our desires, which terrify us, because they seem so vast and unachievable.

Aethel

Aethel is the dipthong “ae”
Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem (from ragweedforge.com)

An estate is very dear to every man,
if he can enjoy there in his housewhatever is right and proper in constant prosperity

Aethel, the rune of home, estate, inheritance, family and ancestors (phew) is an indicator of staying close to home, and enjoying the environment around you. Put off any long distance travel, take a break from work, and connect with your personal and immediate environment and family. Part of the understanding of family is blood, and you might do well to focus on your blood and who and what you are connected to by that blood. Not only physical blood, but your spiritual blood as well.

Jera

Jera is the letter j, pronounced with a “y” sound.

Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem (from ragweedforge.com)

Summer is a joy to men, when God, the holy King of Heaven,
suffers the earth to bring forth shining fruitsfor rich and poor alike.
Jera, year or summer, is a rune of time. It signifies the fruition one’s labor after a period of patience, and commitment to bringing about the success one seeks. If you are starting a new venture, it will be successful, but it will take effort and patience until it succeeds. IF you are looking at it’s completion, don’t stop, but continue to follow through, in order to build up to your great success

Ior

Ior is the dipthong “io”
Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem (from ragweedforge.com)

Ior is a river fish and yet it always feeds on land;
it has a fair abode encompassed by water, where it lives in happiness

The more I contemplate Ior, the more the feeling of contentment and happiness seems to come from this rune. It is definitely a rune which is highly mutable in nature, and so can go from hard to soft, from strong to weak, and change it’s forms easily, yet keeping true to it’s inner nature.

October 10 – 16, 2010 – Berkana reversed

Berkana reversed

Berkana is the letter B

Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem (from ragweedforge.com)

The birch bears no fruit; yet without seed it brings forth suckers,
for it is generated from its leaves. Splendid are its branches and gloriously adornedits lofty crown which reaches to the skies.

Berkana reversed signfies a lack or great slowing down of growth, nurturing influence and feminine presence. Perhaps a recent injury is being slow to heal and recover. You might find that feminine might be less present in your life, or their influence is not as pronounced as normal. You might find that instead of being nurtured, you need to reach out and nurture people instead. This might be difficult for you, but it’s time has come to return the favors given to you.

October 8, 2010 – Yr reversed

Yr reversed

Yr is the letter Y

Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem (from ragweedforge.com)

Yr is a source of joy and honour to every prince and knight;
it looks well on a horse and is a reliable equipment for a journey

Yr reversed indicates a loss of skill, ability, and efficiency. One of things I associate with Yr is the hands, and in a reading for health, Yr reversed would indicate problems with the hands. In general, it might indicate a need to pay attention to what you are touching, and how you are handling things, physically and metaphorically. Are you being too rough, or too gentle? Maybe just the excessive repetition of a certain action is beginning to wear you down, in whatever the issue is about. As you force yourself through the motions, you find that your effectiveness deteriorates because you just can’t before like you were able to before.

Hagalaz

Hagalaz is the letter H

Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem (from ragweedforge.com)

Hail is the whitest of grain;
it is whirled from the vault of heavenand is tossed about by gusts of windand then it melts into water

Hagalaz is the rune for today, signifying storms, disruptive and destructive force, the pattern break that removes us from comfortable static life, and catapults you into action. You can take advantage of this current by directing this blast to breaking through your own personal blocks and limits, or you be pummeled along with it.

Feoh

Feoh is the letter F

Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem (from ragweedforge.com)

Wealth is a comfort to all men;
yet must every man bestow it freely,if he wish to gain honour in the sight of the Lord

Feoh marks today, and indicates that good fortune will be gained in all areas of wealth, money and finances. You might find that your Ebay item has sold, or a bill that needs to be paid has been in error, and was already reconciled. It also is saying that today is a good day to work all manner of financial magic, as that magic will be enduring, because of the influence of Shtan, as the rune of the week.

October 5, 2010 – Aesc reversed

Aesc reversed

Aesc is the dipthong “ae”
The ash is exceedingly high and precious to men.
With its sturdy trunk it offers a stubborn resistance,though attacked by many a man

Aesc reversed symbolizes that today, there is a grounding, a descending of energy, thoughts, and feelings that were once perhaps scattered or flightly, now are being focused, and perhaps a little obsessed with the physical. You might find that many parts of your life are being stimulated, as opportunities for gain present themselves, while other areas are becoming stabilized and secure, because the foundation has become more established.
