This week’s Tryptik of Runes is Sowilo |ᛋ|, Kenaz|<|, and Thurisaz |ᚦ|.
Success, Protection, and Knowledge lead the way this upcoming week, say the Runes.
Sowilo is in Heimdall’s aett, and in the Elder Furthark means Sun. If you’ve been looking for that win, it’s here this week. Chase that light, the sun, the wholeness that is the light inside of you. The power is yours, bathe in it. Kenaz comes in and gives you that 3-point lighting that you need to really see things clearly. Kenaz sits in Freyja’s aett and brings the energy of new strength to move forward. Don’t be afraid to hold a light to your vision. You will have new energy to get it done. Believe in your passion, drive. Remember, where your focus goes, so goes your energy. Take all the steps this week with frugality and protection. As you change within, you may see your world change without. If you’re healing from a breakup, you may find this week is where you start to feel better. Trust your intuition is the main message from Thurisaz. This Rune also sits in Freyja’s aett and gives you a nudge to remember with every change there is incredible opportunity. Will you walk through the door, or watch from outside? You choose, Witch.
Sunday we start with the moon in Taurus, which means a Slow Start Sunday may be what the Universe ordered for you. Take some time and do a little Yule shopping from your couch to support your favorite Witches. In the evening we have the moon moving into Gemini and you may want to write that annual catch up letter to friends and family with that energy. Celebrate all the brightness and forward progress in your life. If you don’t do Holidaze cards/letters, maybe journal about all that goodness, or check in with your ‘good things’ jar. The energy of Thurisaz will help you recall those things. Meanwhile Kenaz shows you the next steps after those blessings and accomplishments.
Monday the full moon in Gemini greets the day (0116 hrs PST), following on that is Mercury in Sagittarius squaring Neptune in Pisces (0527 hrs PST). You may feel like even though you left what doesn’t serve you behind (especially when it has to do with intellectual pursuits), but as you move through Monday being a good observer, you may find you don’t understand what or why people are doing what they are doing. The confusion won’t last too long. Just be sure to write down anything that occurs to you; be ready for some grand adventures in your dreams. Bring Thurisaz alongside you for some protective Magic if you feel you need it.
The moon enters Cancer on Tuesday bringing with it the energy to focus on the simple things in life. Power your passion for your nest, brood, and Kitchen Witchery. Don’t forget to up the self-care, and recognize you may have less patience for emotion – especially after any drama that unraveled during last week’s holiday. Shell time is allowed, just communicate clearly, kindly, and firmly. Sowilo’s energy here can help shift perspectives to the positive.
The big news on Friday is that Mercury is entering Capricorn and a few hours later (0800 hrs PDT) the moon jumps into Leo. Mercury in Capricorn may give you pause when it comes to communicating. It’s alright to choose those words carefully. Kenaz will help you highlight what others will actually listen to. Careful and methodical communication, especially in business today will balance that fiery Leo energy coming at us from the moon. Just because you can put someone in their place, doesn’t mean you should. Use the time for deeper study and maybe getting that haircut you desperately need.
With all that in mind, what Magic will you create this week?
Thank you for sharing your time with me here. Now go out there and be the Magic of the world. ~Runa
