It’s interesting to look back on the rune circle already done. This article started with the thought about Gebo rune and Gebo week and initially I wanted to update it with some afterthoughts. But then I’ve seen the dates on the Dagaz post and understood I probably need to add more, since the changes are beyond expected

Dagaz is the last rune of the Futhark and it finishes my Runes Circle practice. It was arguably the hardest week and Dagaz opened its deeper meaning that is not so light.

Jera is the 12th rune of the Elder Futhark, it’s middle and a turning point. Jera is the rune connected with time and cycles, and Nature cycle itself. Its really powerful as it can influence one of the most mysterious matters – time. Jera’s place is opposite with Dagaz – the rune finishing the Elder Futhark and runes circle.

Raido is usually associated with road, trips and traveling in a wider meaning as well as physical travel and riding car. This weak is the hardest to write, because I have seen the different side of Raido
Raido is also connected to rituals and rules. The Raido week was the hardest in runes circle so far. The complicated tasks at the job, and getting other’s task and responsibilities was the main events of the Raido week. It was not bad as negative but very nervous, uncomfortable and hard.
Ansuz is one of the most positive and powerful runes, as it is connected with gods and especially Odin. When I draw Ansuz to a question I know Odin is with me. The second Ansuz meaning is advice, and it is often advice from someone you respect or a ensign, a phrase, you’ve heard, but anyway the gods are speaking to you so listen to the advice.
Ansuz is also a breath and wind, the breath of Odin, or the gods’ breath. Breath can make the rune alive, give it power. So the quickest way to activate a rune is breath on it, calling to it. You can activate runes with blood or with a longer ritual, but if you need the power now and have only piece of paper and a pen, just draw the rune and breath into it. This way of activating runes also works great for the Runes Circle practice.

Thurisaz is a breakthrough rune. It is often associated with gates, coming through to the new reality, new stage in life, doing something unthinkable before. I would agree that it is really very powerful rune, and it lets you push all the boundaries.

Uruz is a very powerful rune. It is often considered energy rune, connected with the wild Tur – the ancient and powerful animal. I expected lots of energy and feeling energetic and in good shape. But Uruz turned much more than that, and I think courage and daring that is supported by Uruz wild energy is main Uruz meaning. I got to travel first in two years with Uruz and though I’ve dreamed about the trip the decision was a last minute one, when I felt I can and want to do it now, no more logical arguments and excuses
Fehu traditional meaning is kettle, and since kettle was a measure of wealth and trade, money in our time.
So starting the Runes Circle with Fehu sets you up for a great week and you can expect lots of gains. But every rune is more complicated than that. I’ve made notes during my Fehu week and here I’ll share my finding and insights about Fehu meaning and it’s influence on life when used as one rune
Im starting my new runes circle on Lammas on the 1st of August. You can start at the same time and comment here or on Facebook, or at your own…
People often ask how to better know runes, especially when they are just starting. Read more books, and check historic data are most often answers. They are right of course,…
