    laguz
    her river flows
    washing over
    to carry me home
    out across the sea

    A poem prompted by a randomly selected Elder Futhark rune.

    Today’s rune is laguz, which has a core meaning of “lake” and, by extension, may be interpreted as “river”, “ocean”, “sea”, “waterfall” or a general body of water. Some alternative interpretations define as “leek”. Following the more commonly accepted meaning, bodies of water were considered liminal spaces, a place between life and death or the threshold space between which spirit and substance resides. Laguz is often associated with feminine energies and journeys via water.

    laguz
    not only eddy
    but river as well,
    i meander her gardens
    drinking in her scent
    gathering sakura
    with every twist & bend

    laguz
    well met we at the sieidi
    standing at watch of water
    a hand change hand
    a breath touch song
    a call to crow new dawns

    laguz
    skiff & solemn sliding
    through mist & mere
    to lay down these arms
    & surrender
    to her petals fell

    laguz
    from her source
    the first kiss of winter
    to her river flows

    taking up blackthorn
    i seek to pathfind
    her snows
