Os reversed

Os is the vowel “o”

Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem (from ragweedforge.com)

The mouth is the source of all language,
a pillar of wisdom and a comfort to wise men,a blessing and a joy to every knight
Os reversed indicates a break down in communication. Expect messages to come late, or garbled. You might find your own skills are interrupted, emails mistyped and lost, and your text messages just can’t seem to get through in a timely manner

Teiwaz

Teiwaz is the letter T

Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem (from ragweedforge.com)

Tiewaz is a guiding star; well does it keep faith with princes;
it is ever on its course over the mists of night and never fails

This has not happened to me before, where the rune of the day and week are the same on the same day that I cast them. The full meaning of that I am not sure, but it is doubly relevant today to be perceptive, honest and clear with yourself and your limitations.

October 24 – 30 – Teiwaz


Teiwaz

Teiwaz is the letter T

Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem (from ragweedforge.com)

Tiewaz is a guiding star; well does it keep faith with princes;
it is ever on its course over the mists of night and never fails

Tiewaz for the rune of the week indicates a week where wisdom, guidance, integrity judgement and discernment play key roles. Let cooler mind prevail, and put aside anxiety and fear, embracing what you know and sense about the situations that arise, and knowing when to take action, and when to follow through.

October 18, 2010 – Ehwaz reversed


Ehwaz

Ehwaz is the short “e” sound, like pet

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 says “Slow Down!!!” Now is not the time to rush, hurry, and move through things quickly, and seemingly on auto-pilot. Allows yourself to stop and think things through, or be more conscious in your actions and decisions, because you can’t really count on things to be where you think they ought to be. You may want to make a move in advance. Planning on leaving everything on time, or even early, to account for the slow motion you are going to experience.

October 17, 2010 – Eihwaz


Eihwaz

Eihwaz is the long i sound, but it is rarely used in script

Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem (from ragweedforge.com)

The yew is a tree with rough bark,
hard and fast in the earth, supported by its roots,a guardian of flame and a joy upon an estate

Eihwaz tells us that today was a day of connection. The image of Eihwaz often reminds of the writing from the Emerald Tablet “It ascends from earth into heaven and again it descends to the earth, and receives the power of higher and of lower things” and thus connection, in being connected to earth and heaven, to underworld and upper world, one can receive the power and influence of both and “Thus you will have the Glory of the whole world. Therefore will all obscurity flee from you” as those connections are established and strengthened. It often seems to take a more direct form in meeting with new people, and new opportunities, that seem to have arisen without a clear source or action. They are not necessarily chance encounters, but their presence is not obvious until the connection is made.
