Control
of the emotions is at issue here. During times of transition,
shifts in life course and accelerated self-change, it is important
not to collapse youself into your emotions - the highs as well
as the lows. New opportunities and challenges are typical of
this Rune. And with them may come trespasses and unwanted influences.
Algiz
serves as a mirror for the Spiritual Warrior, the one whose
battle is always with the self. The Warrior's protection is
like the curved horns of the elk, or the warning rustle of sedge
grass, for both serve to keep open the space around you.
Remain mindful
that timely right action and correct conduct are your only true
protection. If you find yourself feeling pain, observe the pain
and stay with it. Do not try to pull down the veil and escape
from life by denying what is happening. You will progress;
knowing that fact is your protection.
