Good Freya’s day friends and Good Yule! Todays pull is Hagalaz. Instead of a bad omen I see it as recognizing the death of last year and beginning anew. A new cycle for growth, learning and healing. Eventually the storm passes and skies become clear, this is what I see Hagalaz bringing.
HAGALAZ
(hah-ga-lahz)
Hailstorm
Aggression
signifies wind, bad weather is connected to dangerous and destructive forces and times of crisis.
Often in life, unexpected things happen that we are unable to foresee dark forces are set in motion and what we can do is accept a symbolic death to rebuild on top of the ruins. The card is tied to our darker side and aggression; we must know them to be able to control them.
Hagalaz helps us become aware of our deepest impulses and protects in moments of crisis and change. How do we deal with crises and distressing times? Do we fall victimized by an unfairly adverse destiny, or do we think we are partially responsible for what happens? Hagalaz can signify a significant change. Important shifts are taking place for you. But we must dismantle the old to make room! We can’t always control our circumstances, but we can control how we react to them. this is a good reminder to check in on YOURSELF and how you are reacting to your current situation.
Hail is a temporary phenomenon, starting and ending with water reminding us of transformation.
Magical uses: protection, luck, success in navigating difficult situations, breaking unhealthy patterns
