November 7 – 13, 2010 – Inguz

Inguz

Inguz is the suffix –ing

Anglo-Saxon rune poem (from ragweedforge.com)

Ing was first seen by men among the East-Danes,
till, followed by his chariot,he departed eastwards over the waves.So the Heardingas named the hero

Inguz is the rune of potential and contained power, but also the catalyst that sets forces and events in motion. In this sense it embodies many things, such as sacrifice (the offerings that give sustenance to spiritual beings, so they can work for you, or perhaps fulfill your request) to a symbol for male aspect of nature, creation and divinity, the inseminating force that helps life to renew itself, in seeds that wait until the right moment to spring forth. With that in mind, that is the influence operating for this week. Recognize what is needed to achieve what one desires, or even to recognize what is really desired. To find the potential and power, and gather it up, and also to catalyze other forces, and supplicate the Powers that be, in asking for their assistance.

November 6, 2010 – Ehwaz reversed


Ehwaz reversed

Ehwaz is the vowel sound “eh”

Anglo-Saxon rune poem (from ragweedforge.com)

The horse is a joy to princes in the presence of warriors.
A steed in the pride of its hoofs,when rich men on horseback bandy words about it;and it is ever a source of comfort to the restless

Ehwaz reversed appears again today. A sign that the storm is winding down, and that the changes of movement of the past week is now at a more manageable pace, allowing you to adapt, contemplate and move forward thoughtfully, instead of having to be continually active and responsive to the shifting demands of the world around you.

The horse is a joy to princes in the presence of warriors.

Ehwaz reversed signifies that things are moving slowly. Either because you need to take things slowly, thinking through your course of action and taking a look at things before going forward.
It could also signify that things around you are not yet ready. Perhaps other people’s efforts are not complete yet, and so your are slowed down in waiting for them, and preventing from moving forward at your desired pace.

November 4, 2010 – Ac reversed

Ac reversed

Ac is the vowel “ah”

Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem (from ragweedforge.com)

Ac reversed signfies that qualities of endurance, stamina, faith and fidelity are lacking or being challenged today. The faltering oak tree, it cannot withstand any great blows or strike, and cannot keep strong against the challenges that are being faced. It has been a great many challenges so far, as well. Expect that nothing will last or endure today, and appreciate it for the moment that you have it.

November 2, 2010 – Raidho reversed


Raidho reversed

Raidho is the letter R

Anglo-Saxon rune poem (from ragweedforge.com)

Riding seems easy to every warrior while he is indoors
and very courageous to him who traverses the high-roadson the back of a stout horse.
Raidho reversed is the rune of dangerous journeys, or journeys that should be avoided. It can also indicate obstacles to your travels or actions, or the loss of a means of transportation. Check your list (or make one) reconfirm your route and look for obstacles, and maybe reschedule that road trip, until after you have gotten your brakes checked and your oil changed

Gebo

Gebo is the letter G

Anglo-Saxon rune poem (from ragweedforge.com)

Generosity brings credit and honour, which support one’s dignity;
it furnishes help and subsistenceto all broken men who are devoid of aught else
Gebo, the rune of generosity, exchange, contracts and relationships signfies today is about these various modes of relationship. Friends, lovers, co-workers, neighbors, all of these are relationships that one has where exchanges and social contracts enter. Sometimes you are the giver, sometimes you are receiver, and being aware of the nature of that exchange is very beneficial. Being only one or the other can be very unbalancing, as something will give eventually.

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 reversed signifies issues with wealth. While in my case it has to do with bills coming due at the beginning of the month, it might also indicate wealth that has been hidden or concealed, or perhaps being too miserly when it comes to those who need, and would benefit from, your assistance

It is also the rune of passion, of desires that burn within, illuminating our wants and needs. Within it’s light, revelations are made, as the light pushes park the concealing darkness.

Jera

Jera is the letter J

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.

It seems to me that Jera is a strong recurring rune for the past couple of months, especially when it comes to the festivals of the year, and their turning.

October 31 – November 6, 2010 – Hagalaz

Hagalaz signfies hail, the storm, and the forces of destruction. It indicates that this week will be filled with changes, not all pleasant, and the only response one can do is to move with them and withstand them.
