Be aware that it is likely to be a crisis, or difficult passage which will magically drop everything into place for you - therefore it will be important to consider and diliberate prior to taking any decisions or actions, as it is implied that for some doubts and scruples may interfer in the process. Be aware of yourself and do not be surprised if you find yourself urged from Within to harmonise yourself in the sphere of relationships.

While we all have a need to share and be desired; it is also important to question ourselves as to whether we are sharing:

• with the right person or people?
• too much?
• not enough?

Allow your instincts to guide you and be open to receiving signals from the outer events in your life this week; remembering that "actions speak louder than words".

It is important to note that this brief crisis or difficult passage is timely and necessary not only to your personal growth and development, but also to the positive growth and development of your relationships, projects and endeavours. It will therefore be important that you focus in the present and on the tasks at hand. Be sincere in your dealings with others and trust in this process - knowing that you can not fail. The challenge for you in this area is that you 'complete the current phase' prior to moving on to the next - Resolve to clear away the old and outgrown from yourself and your life - In doing so you will find yourself released from the tension, stress and in more extreme cases the anxiety which has been keeping you trapped, as a means of preparing yourself for a 'rebirth'.

We are reminded that: Seen in its true light - everything is a test! ... and at this time it is vital to our progress that we stay centred and grounded, free ourselves from unwanted / outgrown influences, and learn to see the humour in situations - work on yourself and your situation with calm certainty, while waiting on the Will of God to be delivered. 

The majority will find themselves at some point this week being drawn by inner impulses to self-realisation in one area of life or another. Many could find a new path revealed them which should be followed, which are driven from the core of your individuality. It will therefore be important to be conscious of your essence in order to bring it to form in a creative manner.

This week is also a week of healing, recharging and regeneration (right down to cell level) therefore do not be surprised if you find yourself experiencing radical or dramatic surges in your energy and emotional levels. Should this be your experience, be aware that you will need to exercise caution and do not be afraid to "retreat in strength" as you make the journey inwards to centre and balance yourself.

This week is a week where all should open the self up to the Inner Light, and let the light into the secret and shut away parts of the self. Recognise and admit to the 'self' that which has long been denied. (That which you have been denying to yourself is the obstacle to your progress).

It will be important that you do not give yourself airs and to the best of your ability to take 'RIGHT ACTION' in all your interactions and endeavours.

Sigel is the herald of success and achievement. Generally speaking the underlying trends are positive for any new projects which are started or consolidated this week.

Finally Sigel reminds us that if we are to achieve the success we are striving for we must work with patience and diligence on the temporal plane in order to reach our goals.

Before I make a start on the Blog for the week commencing 19th July 2009, I feel I owe you an apology for the lack of a Rune Blog for last week.

For those of you that know me last week was one heck of a week... in the nicest possible way. My daughter turned 21, and I also had my University Greaduation, and that was on top of the normal day-to-day routines of running my business, various bits of future projects planning, meetings and running a home and family.

For those of you out there with busy lives I am sure you will understand that there are a limited number of hours in a day and only so much that one person can do, no matter you organised they are, or how good they might be at multi-tasking.

I hope you all had an excellent week last week, and that inspite of my publishing lapse last week that you will continue to come back to my blog to read what the Runes suggest that life has in sort for you on a weekly basis.

Wishing you all the very best in everything.

It is implied that this will be a week where you will be confronted with new opportunities and challenges. You are cautioned against holding onto unwanted influences as a means to preventing yourself from tripping yourself up!

It will be important to keep a bit of an open-space around yourself. To be forewarned is to be forearmed, therefore it is important that you keep yourself focused and aware.

You are once again reminded that 'correct conduct' and 'timely action' is your only true protection this week.

For some this week could be a somewhat painful week (those whom are having difficulty in identifying the 'unwanted influences' in life) Should you find yourself experiencing pain of one sort or another, it is vital that you do not try to escape it! Don't deny what is happening... Work with it and examine your role in the situation and learn, so that you don't get tripped up in the same manner again.

Finally it is important for all to control emotions - while on the one hand your emotions can be your strength, it is implied that on a level your emotions could be used against you this week; turning your strength into a weakness if you are not controlled and careful.

In terms of the week itself, events and or aspects of character are likely to interfere with your growth and progress; and for some there is a risk that you may take 'wrong action' in one way or another.  It is also a week where you could learn a lot about yourself and the ways your emotions can be used against you to trip you up.

Diligence is called for: Examine what happens and your role in it.

You are advised to strip away from within to identify the blockages which you cause yourself.  It is important to be aware that some of the blockages will have their roots in your childhood experiences and your developmental programming.

One of the important things to note about this week is that it is likely a degree of reviewing and refertilising will need to be undertaken. Trust that with correct preparation growth is assured.

As a final note: Check your motives and make sure that they are not misplaced!

Tyr Reversed also implies that this will be a week where hasty or ill-timed action will cause your energy to leak away, leaving feeling drained or as if you have been wasting your time.

Be aware that if associations are short-lived this is because they have filled their span!

It is also a week where matters of trust and confidence are at issue, therefore you are requested to examine your motives, and in everything that you do or don't do this week it is vital to your progress that you do the 'Right Thing'.

All in all the events of this week are designed to encourage, support and underpin improvement of bettering of your situation. It is implied that you will need to continue to be aware of yourself and your moral foundations as the cycle of change which lead to improvement has aspects of FATE and the unknown mixed in with them.

Your challenge during the course of this week is to conduct yourself in a flexible and flowing manner - be honest with yourself and listen to the instinctive and intuitive guidance which comes from within.

For some this will be a week where you are shown where and how a change in attitude can make your life and situation better. For others the signs of improvement are more tangible as news of 'moving' becomes part of your temporal reality (moving house / moving job). 

One of the most important things to be mindful of this week is that your faith in yourself and your Creator will be challenged this week - there are elements of Destiny, Fate and Faith mixed into the events of this week. Many will find themselves called upon to take and 'empty handed leap of faith', others will find their faith tested more directly.

It is implied that aspects of 'inner fear and doubt' will be brought to the fore. It is evident that you have some cleansing and healing to do on this aspect of your nature and directly of those thing and the triggers which you identify. Remember: it is your inner fears, which prevent you from being all that you can be; and often leaves your feeling trapped and paralyzed. 

One thing is certain - this is going to be a very exciting but unpredictable week, so don’t expect the standard equation of (a+b=c) to work week! 

The influences based on these Runes suggest that many will enter a New Beginning in at least one area of life or life experience. With this new beginning it is implied that it will be necessary to be flexible and flowing in your approach and remember at times it will be necessary to act with Patience. For some the New Beginning will focus on the Inner Self and your unique needs for growth - it will therefore be important that you rectify your relationship with your Higher Self before moving forward. Establishing and maintaining balance is key!

On a temporal level it is implied that there is much work to be done - do the tasks at hand for their own sake. Don't seek credit for your accomplishments, or focus on the hoped for outcomes, as this will undermine you and your progress. It is going to be important that you do NOTHING in excess this week, and for some it will also be important to exercise some degree of caution - Remember you are entering into a new beginning and there will be aspects of the unknown thrown into this mix - so 'look before you leap'

The challenge for the week shows that as the majority will be receiving insight, or communications of a positive nature; which for some could trigger a need to explore the depths and foundations of your life to date. It is implied that you could well find yourself making new connections and surprising linkages, therefore it will be important to be aware of chance encounters, and the conversations you have!

Overall it is shown that where one door closes another door is ready to spring open for you! It will be important to cleanse the old and outgrown from your life and will find themselves having to "let go" of those people situations and circumstances which are no longer appropriate. Again the need to develop inner balance and stability is key - you are cautioned against allowing yourself to be seduced by the momentum of your old way of being and/or reacting to situations; as this will undermine or delay your progress as you enter into new relationships, partnership and work related opportunities.

Be patient and open yourself up to the new opportunities which are coming your way... It is definitely a week to EXPLORE synergies between yourself and others, your interests and the interests of others. Do not be surprised to find interesting and unexpected connections, nor the opportunity to enter into new partnerships.

When tentatively entering into new partnerships it will be important to be EQUAL with the 'Self' and work on developing your ability to cooperate with others while at the same time not compromising your principles. This works on all levels - personal, interpersonal and business!

On a purely temporal level some could find themselves on the receiving a 'gift 'or a 'gift in kind'. Some are reminded that a 'timely warning or insight' could be seen as a gift!

Finally make time, to take a bit of time out for yourself and explore the interplay between your conscious and subconscious mind.
