tossing a rune — 24sep25

hagalaz
i step between floe
and river run
waiting for to
carry me home

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.
