SOWILO

PRONUNCIATION: so-we-loh

KEYWORD: wholeness, life force, suns energy, Concentration, good health, success, energy, and light

POWER OF THE RUNE: Sowelo helps to shed light on our wishes and focus on our goals It also reminds us to remain balanced. Sowelo may be illuminating your path, draw on your creativity, your inherent skills, and talents to strengthen your pursuits, knowing you have great power at your disposal

Sowelo stands for wholeness, that which our nature requires. It embodies the impulse towards self-realization and indicates the path you must follow – not from ulterior motives but from the core of your individuality.

Seeking after wholeness is the Spiritual Warrior’s path, and yet you are striving to become what, by nature you already are.

This Rune reminds us to open ourselves up, letting the light into a part of our life that has been secret, shut away. To accomplish this it may call for a profound recognition, admitting to ourselves something we have denied or hidden.

SUGGESTED MEDITATION: Do we enjoy a good psycho-physical balance? Do we know how to seize opportunities on the fly? Do we feel worthy of success? How are you directing your vitality? Are you scattered over too many activities or commitments?? are you neglecting your health or at risk of burning out? Are you making a situation bigger than it is? Are you being honest with yourself and others?

Practice the art of doing without doing. Aim yourself truly and maintain your aim without manipulative effort. (Even in loving it is love that loves through us – now try aiming that love at yourself)

While the sun is crucial to life, its power can be harmful if its intensity is not balanced with other forms of energy. Sowelo may be asking you to look at how you are directing your vitality. Are you scattered over too many activities or commitments? Are you neglecting your health at the risk of burning out?

Alternately you may be making something out to be bigger or more significant than it really is or placing yourself in the spotlight when you should step back a moment.

MAGICAL USES: self-confidence, motivation, succeeding, healing, victory over challenges, and spiritual guidance
