Uruz


The stream of consciousness..
So another stream of consciousness and i continue each day to do this. Again I wrote just anything that came to mind before focusing on the runes and, the other day, this is what ...er..came to mind!

A girl and her dog: Emily Slapin at http://emilyslapinart.blogspot.com

Away, Away the black fly in the morning,
itchy nose, itchy feet full of yawning.
Chasms and cracks, hear the black quack.
Does he breath, does he scream and shout, does he cry?
Lost in the woods, a young girl cries.
Cries for her dog who has run off and cries as she hears no barking.
Where did he go? The little Russell.
Someone must have found him, curled up sleeping in
a hollowed out tree. Found him, picked him up and took him home
for tea.

So, do the flies buzz around and look for food underground?
Yes, and they climb up higher and higher,
Looking for Rover and the little girl and a spider.
Maybe they are all curled up, asleep in the warmth of a
hollowed out Oak tree trunk,
waiting for the light to come and give Joy....

Hmm there you go! So come on, analyse me! Blimey...

The Rune of the day....
So, onto more 'serious' business. The rune I went on to choose that day and my ramblings thus..

URUZ the second Rune.
My ramblings....
Well, a rune of great power is Uruz, a rune that charges forth like wild oxen. Imagine the strength and vitality of a herd of wild buffalo racing across the open Savannah. Imagine the unseen energy and force behind such power. Driving on and on, reaching its' destiny. That may be Uruz. Imagine a creative, untamed force. The strength to force forward, a creative burst of imagination that carries us on. One that inspires and carries the artist. Imagine R sat with his guitar, playing instinctively, the creative, untamed force flowing through, bringing forth music from an unknown source. That is Uruz, I thinks!

So, now the 'official' meaning...
A rune of health and vitality that holds untamed forces. The elements it holds and inspires including;

* Strength
* Healing
* Courage
* Tenacity
* Strong emotions
* Untamed potential
* Create and make things happen
* Overcoming obstacles
* Natural forces
* Allow changes and go with the flow of Uruz!

So with that in mind I am moving on to try and tap into Uruz and get some of this untamed potential! Find wherefore art it lurks!
Blessings

"Hear the black quack" is one of the coolest things I've ever heard! That's gorgeous.

I hope you find your Uruz!

Much love, xxx

My stream of consciousness is kinda like a fast running river with jagged rocks and waterfalls but yours is more like an easy running stream with little pools and edys :)

Ah thanks Kitty - you are too kind! I haven't a clue where that came from! Maybe it was Uruz!

rk!
My stream is more like a dribble something akin to a leakey tap that needs a washer changing!
I think your stream is more like the firemans hose gushing out at the rate of knots! Plus, you have invented a new language I think!
