casting runes — 02feb26

hagalaz
in dream confusion
hands changing hands
eyes changing eyes
under a foxfire glow
in slipstream shift
along parallel rows

A rune poem, based on an Elder Futhark rune selected at random.

Today’s rune is hagalaz, which has a core meaning of “hail”, which was associated with potential, transformation, renewal and change; hail is imagined a seed from which change will arise. Hagalaz is also seen as representative of things beyond our control: a clash between fire and ice.

Please visit my Elder Futhark pages at sceadugenga.com for additional interpretations of the runes based on multiple references and personal reflection.
