KENAZ

(kay-nahz)

MEANING: beacon, torch, fire

KEYWORDS: light, heat, illumination, breakthrough, creative fire

For our ancestors’ fire was the only man-made source of heat and light. Kenaz stands for the fire branch, or torch, which people used for heat and light and to light a journey from place to place.

This rune represents the light in the darkness as well as the warmth that fire provides. On a metaphysical level, this is also the light of knowledge and enlightenment.

You could be experiencing a breakthrough in some area of your life that has caused you confusion or anguish. Higher guidance is with you now, bringing enlightenment and clarity. You will be able to reconsider your situation in light of new information or understanding.

The fire comes from within to provide illumination.

Clarity of thought, analytical ability, constructive expression.

Make sure that what you endeavor to do is rightly challenged at the outset so that you do not get “burned”

Kenaz, can also denote the fire of creative action and artistry. It is a good time to begin creative projects. Prior obstacles to productivity have been cleared away and you now have optimal energy and passion for your creative work.

Harness the power of the forge – where raw materials are transformed into valued objects – to bring projects to fruition.

MAGICAL USES: Creativity, inspiration, healing love, balanced relationships, adds power to runic talismans
