This is the rune of Radical Transformation and the Victory of Light over Darkness. Dagaz heralds a sudden, yet profoundly positive change—a true turning point in your life. It symbolizes the dawn, the illumination that dispels the shadow: it is the definitive closure of one cycle and the beginning of a New Era of growth and awareness. Fear not: this rune brings with it success, prosperity, and the encouragement to act with courage and certainty in your decisions. You are at a moment of awakening, where you possess the power to overturn any problematic situation and realize your dreams. The message is clear: Today is your day. Embrace this transition, follow your inner light, and prepare for a swift and profound evolution. There is no turning back; your path is one of growth and progress.

You have drawn Othala reversed, and this rune speaks of identity and belonging. It invites you to look within and ask yourself: Where do I truly come from, and what am I still carrying that no longer belongs to me? This rune, upside down, suggests that part of your roots has turned into a cage. You may be trying to honor family, social, or cultural expectations that no longer resonate with who you are now. Or perhaps you feel out of place — as if there’s no real “home” for you, neither within nor without. Othala reversed is not a sign of permanent loss, but of identity transition. It urges you to redefine your personal inheritance: you don’t need to reject your origins, but to consciously choose which parts to carry forward and which to release. It’s a time to ask yourself: - Which inherited beliefs am I still following, even though they no longer nourish me? - What does “home” mean to me today? - To whom or to what am I still trying to belong? If you embrace this rune as a mirror rather than a judge, it will help you rebuild an authentic sense of grounding, based on who you are now — not only on who you once were.

The sign of Algiz is a beacon standing in the darkness, a constant warning to raise your guard. When danger silently creeps in or openly surrounds you, the first step is to learn to be wary of what seems too easy or too good to be true. Don't lower your guard in the face of ambiguous promises or inexplicable situations. This rune urges you to listen to your innermost compass: your instinct. It is the ancestral wisdom whispering in the shadow of reason. Following this inner voice, even if it contradicts apparent logic, is your greatest defense. Algiz doesn't promise the absence of threats, but arms you with the ability to see them and act to protect yourself.
