Good Thor’s day friends! Work week is a day short this week as I head out Monday on a mini-vacation with my with for our 25th anniversary! 25 years…it’s kind of crazy to think about. Todays pull is Reið and with that it serves as a reflection on this journey of my life. I’ve had many downs, many ups, but in a strange way they all form together to complete this strange thing that I call my “selfâ€. Quite wonderful indeed!
áš± reið (“ride”) is “ride, journey” and represents growth.
Sound: “râ€
Meaning: Since this rune stands for the act of riding its symbolic meaning is one of a journey. A trip or adventure that we must undertake to further ourselves down a path we have set out on.
Norwegian rune poem **
ᚱ Ræið kveða rossom væsta;
Reginn sló sværðet bæzta.
Translation **
áš± Reidh
Riding is said to be the worst thing for horses;
Reginn forged the finest sword.
