Rune Reading for Friday – 9 May 2025

As we seek to understand the influences that we have experienced, as well as the experiences we’ve yet to have, we search for an answer as to what force we must keep in reserve to help us on our path toward our destiny. To visualize these influences and counter-energies, we will call upon the layout of the “four winds” that we may learn of our adversaries and allies in our mental battle for safety.

Past Influences (top center)
Berkano – “It could mean, secrets, sanctuary, liberation, shelter, life changes, becoming, and birth,”
Present Influences (lower center)
Wunjo – “It could mean prosperity, accomplishment, fellowship, harmony, or joy.”
Future Influences (to the left)
Jera – “It could mean timing, proper, peace, plenty, and reward for positive action.”
Bedrock (things to remain) (to the right)
Uruz – “It could mean understanding, pragmatic knowledge, health, luck, pattern, tenacity, vitality, constancy, and strength.”

This week we embrace our sisters who have been lost to this world, we will see them again on the other side. Until then, we ask the creator to bring the ones who are still upon the plane of existence home to the loved ones who remain. We ask the creator (the gods) to be with those who have lost a sister, to pass through the sunshine to add with the rain of the heart to grow in place, love.

Dagen’s Indsigt
Each morning, I engage in conversation with my gods. During which they offer me wisdom and guidance, and in return I offer them myself that they may do with that which they need to. I have felt the gods manage my experiences throughout the years, and especially over the last several decades, engaging me in a multitude of ways. Today, I offer to you that which was told to me by the gods in this morning’s talks. However, as I offer you the wisdom given to me, I encourage you to seek the answers within yourself, as each of us travels a different path, therefore our perspectives are a little different. 
To reveal the influences of our past, we have drawn the rune of Berkano, the rune of wisdom. Today the rune reminds us of experiences that lie within our past about the teachings we have received. Whether those teachings were offered by those with the mature wisdom of the ages, or whether we had to learn them the hard way of experiencing them first-hand. The lessons of our past offer those life changes that we are looking for, helping us to reality the sanctuary within our mind that can be a healthy retreat.
Our present influence is that of Wunjo, the rune of Optimism. Today, the gods reveal in the experience of Wunjo in our present is that of wishful thinking, maintaining the power and influence of the energy of hope. This energy is the cornerstone of many other necessary emotions, particularly the emotion of love. Wunjo offers us an understanding of prosperity, and accomplishment within our existence, discovering harmony and joy along the path. Given it is our present space, the rune reveals that even though circumstances may seem dark, there is a light on the horizon, good times ahead.  
To further reveal our future influences, we have drawn the rune of Jera, the rune of the seasons. Jera represents the cyclic passing of events. Whether those experiences be that of the annual seasons, or just the inhale followed by the exhale, the circle continues effortlessly. Jera in our future space reveals that experiences and understandings will occur when the mind is ready to work with them, although sometimes it may seem as the experience is too much, remember, the universe will allow your exposure to an experience when you are ready to handle it.
To understand what influences we should retain, we have drawn the rune, Uruz, the rune of manifestation. The energy revealed by Uruz in our bedrock space indicates the energy of healing, endurance, and vital formative force that needs to be kept. Remembering the lessons of our past that provided us with wisdom of our experiences, the hope of a better day tomorrow, and the cyclic flow of energies when we are ready for them that had laid out our trajectory, know in your heart that those things that we actively seek, we will find. We must be willing to understand that the universe has a timeline already built, we simply need to build ourselves to be a part of it.
