Good morning! Today’s rune is Uruz. What a perfect rune to start out with on this sleepy Tuesday. Uruz, for me, is a great reminder that we have the strength to achieve anything that we put our mind to, that this week is ours to conquer and shape. We possess the energy of creation within us, we just need to give it direction.
URUZ
Pronunciation: “OO-rooze”
Meaning: Aurochs (Wild Ox)
While Fehu represents the wealth of domestic cattle, Uruz represents the wild energy of the Wild Ox or Auroch. A untamed, primordial energy that fuels our manifestations. The best example I can think of to represent this intense energy is found in the Norse Creation Story; we learn how primordial fire and ice come together, and from this joining we are given Audhumla, the primal cow. Uruz represents the wild energy of creation that shapes our world, and with it we find the strength to fulfil our dreams and goals. But, as with all things, a note of caution; the Auroch is a wild animal, untamed and with a mind of its own. It needs a firm hand of control to achieve success, uncontrolled creativity isn’t without its dangers.
