Tarot Thursday - Witch Runes - Let's Try This Again

 

Today's Run Set: Witch Runes

Today's Question: How do I let go of anger when there can never be any outside resolution due to a death? How do I move on?

I know this isn't tarot, but I am grouping divination tools under one weekly heading for ease of sorting. In my last Thursday post, I attempted a cast with these runes, and the universe told me I wasn't in the right headspace to hear what it needed to say. Today, I tried again with a clearer, more conscious intent related to what I needed insight and guidance on.

Past Influences (Star) 

Rune Meaning- Positive. A hope, a wish, or a long-term dream that you want to make into a reality. This is a lofty goal, and it's okay to dream big and have high expectations. Even when expectations are unreasonable, there may be a hidden manifestation of at least one version of the original goal. The star can represent a gift or a windfall as well as a guiding light.

Interpretation: I did have an overall goal related to the situation that I have worked very hard to achieve throughout my life. It seemed like progress was finally being made, and there were big dreams and expectations tied to the hoped for outcome. That goal is now impossible to achieve due to a death. That lack of resolution has fostered a lot of anger and resentment that has no place to go.

Present Influences (Romance)

Rune Meaning - Negative. Passion has turned into obsession. Sex and romance are afoot. Diverse people are brought together in one union and so squabbling is natural. People who once had diverging views are now attempting reconciliation, but there may be spite or jaded attitudes all around. There is a raw, magnetic attraction that draws people together.

Interpretation: My mind dwells too much on the things I can’t change, on reconciliations I can’t make, minds I can now never change, words I will never say or hear.

Current Situation (Woman)

Rune Meaning - Negative. This represents the passive, receptive energies that are often categorized as feminine. The rune can also represent a literal woman pertaining to the situation. Other feminine characteristics include nurturing, creativity, birth of something new, and cleansing energy.

Interpretation: Yes, a woman is at the heart of the situation. Two women actually. One is beyond reach, but I can change myself and how I am handling this situation. I can be the birth of something new and clean and good for myself.

Action (Crossroads)

Rune Meaning - Negative. The path is blocked by obstacles that can only be overcome by changing direction. Be flexible, but know that sacrifices must be made or else they will be taken by the random happenstance of the universe. Things may take longer than expected. Choose your battles.

Interpretation: Pee or get off the pot. I can continue to dwell on things that are absolutely beyond my control and that break me down emotionally, mentally, physically … or I can let it go and move on. I have been at a crossroads for almost three years, and it’s time to pick a direction. Going back isn’t an option.

Outcome (Rings)

Rune Meaning - Positive. You can't do it alone, so form the right and lasting alliances. There may be a business partnership, a marriage, or other team formation. Seek out a partnership if none exists in the matter at hand.

Interpretation: Moving on and letting go will help strengthen the bond and love that I feel like I’ve lost in the haze of anger and grief. I may need to ask for help along the way, and I should remind myself that is okay too.
