Rune for this day Wednesday 27th June 2012

Before selecting my moonstone rune from it's snug little velvet pouch with Tree of Life insignia, I contemplated my day ahead.A short but intense meeting involving the immediate fate of a person's employment - not to be taken lightly.A long and potentially conflict-ridden meeting deciding the long term fate of a machine line and therefore probably eventual employment of a small group - much discussion, fact-gathering and analysis.I set my thoughts as to how I should "be".  In first meeting, it…See More

Runes of the Havamal

I found a site which provides some of the basic info that might assist our growing understanding ... As a beginner, I sometimes feel there is a need to see some of the history / mythology / saga on the runes so here is a link ...  Runes of the Havamal I especially liked it as it had a "magic spell" linkage that appealed to my Wiccan leanings, so I chose this for the post but there are some others on the site which…See More

Bhi Me, Beicht Me, Ta Me

Posted on June 16, 2012 at 8:21pm 10 Comments

I was

I will be

I am

 

 

Contemplating a Doyle family motto (Bhi Me, Beicht Me - Gaelic for 'I Was, I Will Be') and wanting to add Ta Me or 'I Am', I had to also think about which runes most resonated with the three phrases.

 

So I think ....

 

I was .... Inguz

 

I will Be ...... Dagaz

 

I am ...... Laguz

 

What does anyone else think?

Mannaz + Othala

Posted on May 11, 2012 at 4:02am 3 Comments

Once upon a time, I made a little personal rune placing the top 'triangle' of Othala to join with the cross of Mannaz. My early readings on runes were limited to base definitions and to me it represented my love of humanity, and moreover my family. I expressed its meaning as "kindness for all and love for all" and I put a little bit of Wunjo inside the 'house' the image made. On the reverse of the charm it is inscribed on, are the runic symbols of my husband's initials, so this rune had a… Continue

Lessons of Hagalaz: Rune of Disaster and Healing

In the face of disaster, compassionate human beings discover that they do not break, but become stronger. We discover that our communities come together, even on a global scale, in face of unimaginable destruction. When the universe shows its inimical side, the side that couldn't care less about average human affairs, it's as if we come together to show overwhelmingly that we care for one another. When the universe demonstrates that it cannot be depended upon, that it is more than able to wreck havoc, we react by showing that we can depend upon one another.

A Social Network Exclusively For Rune Study?

Have you been as frustrated as me in finding an online community exclusively for studying the runes? What is the solution?
