Today's rune of the day is Perthro. It is the symbol for destiny. It can also indicate mystery. Perthro is also symbolized by a dice cup. This is an interesting rune because it speaks of fate and secrets. It reveals bigger truths that align with the Divine within all living things. It indicates that mysteries abound, but they lead you on your way to your destiny.
For love, today, this rune indicates that you may be looking in the wrong places for the love you seek. That mystery will reveal itself soon and in the meantime, you should prepare for the destiny assigned to you. If the universe deems a love useful, it will be. Otherwise, it will fail to come to fruition. In committed, long term relationships, this means that there are still things between you that need discovery. Those mysteries or secrets need to be brought out into the light.
For career, maybe you've been banging your head against a problem you struggle to solve. Instead of banging your head today, release it. Let the universe guide the answers. Allow the mystery to unfold and the secret to solving it to be revealed to you today. If you are wondering why you are still in a job you dislike, or wondering if a new option is the right move, this rune is asking you to take a beat and listen. Does the wind speak to you? Can you feel the energy that tells you which option you are supposed to make? If the energy feels far away, leave the choice for another day. Today is a day to make moves with certainty and if there is a hint of fear of the unknown, then pause. You have time later to choose when you've allowed the earth to tell you what you need to pursue.
For personal, this rune is indicating that there is something within yourself you need to explore more. And that thing within yourself is the thing that is going to lead you to your destiny. You should avoid ignoring it. If you are unhappy, dig into it. Figure it out. Process it. Feel it. Give it life so that you can release it as the obstacle to your progress. The more you ignore the mysteries of who you are and what you are capable of doing, the more unhappy you are sure to become. Perhaps it's time to reveal a secret to someone. Today is a day to live into truth. If you are unable to name, with clarity, what your truth is, then you need to start the journey to discovering it.
Onto the tarot spread for today:
Past - Inverted Page of Wands
Present - Inverted Two of Swords
Future - Inverted Four of Cups
Obstacle - Inverted Seven of Cups
Solution - Inverted Seven of Swords
Of note, all cards were inverted and from Minor Arcana. Two swords, two cups, and a wand. The past indicates there was an indecisiveness there. For me, this looks as though I knew I had a gift and I hid it for so long when I should have been using it. The present indicates that I've been moving in the wrong direction. In my life, I've pursued my livelihood through "normal" careers. I'm seeking a new career and may be taking it in the wrong direction, definitely something to take note to pay attention to. The future indicates that there are new possibilities being offered. For me, this is pushing me to leave ruts and fears. It tells me that I've lacked motivation and energy to seize opportunities as they are available. The obstacle indicates considering too many options, a lack of contacting to intuition. For me, this means that I've still been putting my full power and energy into what I can do. I've been confused as to what it is that I'm supposed to be doing. The solution indicates that the tides are turning and it's time to admit the wrongs. For me, this runs back to pretty much the rest of the rune and tarot cards I pulled. Keeping secrets will harm me instead of set me free. Allowing toxicity to continue in my life is preventing me from claiming my power.
With today's insights, I have much to consider and think about. If you have any thoughts or intuitions, I encourage you to engage with this blog. Otherwise, I'll be back tomorrow with more insight. Until then, gratitude, love, and light! ~ Divine Dokter
