It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood, Happy Frigg’s day!

Today’s pull is that favorite of mine!! I have used this rune since I was a wee Galaxy and had no idea of its significance to me until much later in life. Do you use this rune? What does it mean to you? Feel free to leave a comment!!

ALGIZ

PRONUNCIATION: el – heehz

KEYWORDS: Protection, defense, opportunity strength

ASSOCIATIONS: This rune is tied to willpower, a fundamental quality for confronting difficult situations. The rune means ELK, an animal that for the Germanic people represented the ability to defend oneself and resist adversity.

RUNIC INSPIRATION: In this difficult moment resistance is needed and the only way to garner this quality is by continuous physical, emotional and spiritual training. One needs to give one’s all at every juncture of one’s existence. Indeed, the rune speaks of the value of generosity as well. Drawing this rune means that you are safe from danger and there is no fear, however, do not take the protective energy for granted by being reckless with your actions. It does not mean there is no danger, only that as long as you remain alert and clear-minded and in touch with your intuition, you are headed for a positive outcome. This rune has also been interpreted as a symbol of reaching up to connect with the divine for support.

THE POWER OF THE RUNE: Algiz is helpful in any situation where patience and diligence are required. This rune can indicate a positive time for a new endeavor and it is likely to produce a favorable outcome. It can be used for protection from negative energy and people, protection of property, astral communication and strengthening friendships

Control of emotion is brought to light here. During times of transition, shifts in the life course, and accelerated self change it is important not to collapse yourself into your emotions – highs and lows

SUGGESTED MEDITATIONS: Do we always give one hundred percent of ourselves or do we sometimes hold back inventing some excuse? Are we capable of self-denial? How much are we willing to sacrifice for others? Are we afraid, holding back our energy, or paralyzed with fear preventing ourselves from physical, mental, and spiritual health?

Algiz can serve as a mirror for the spiritual warrior, the one whose battle is always with the self. New opportunities and challenges are typical and with them come trespasses and unwanted influences

remain mindful that timely right action and correct conduct are your true protection.

If you find yourself feeling pain, observe the pain, and stay with it. Do not try to pull the veil down and escape from life by denying what is happening you will progress knowing that is your protection

Magical uses include: protection from negative energy and people, protection of property, strengthening friendship, and astral communication
