Today's rune is Wunjo. It is the symbol for joy. The rune itself is part of Frey's Ætt which has themes of creation, resources, beginnings, and the physical world. More specifically, Wunjo can also refer to harmony, contentment, belonging, success, and fulfillment. What does this mean for love, career, and life? Well, let's jump into that.
In love, Wunjo is joy. But in a different way. It can be because you've had a fresh start with someone new. It could be finding contentment in someone you've been with for a long time. But either way, it's asking you to relish in the feel of belonging to someone. That's important, especially when it's someone that you chose, as opposed to family.
For career, Wunjo reminds us to use our resources. You may belong to a great team, but sometimes, the best results come when outside resources are utilized. Or when success is achieved together. Even at work, we must strive to thrive and sometimes, belonging or tapping resources is the best way to accomplish that.
With life, our rune reminds us to find joy in the simplest of things. In the northern hemisphere, we are in the process of autumn. The leaves change and fall, the circle of life continues. There's beauty and joy to be had in that. Sometimes we forget that we used to find interesting leaves or rocks or bugs or flowers and they brought us the greatest joy. Maybe today is a day to re-discover something you found joy in when you were younger.
Onto the tarot spread for today!
Past - Queen of Swords
Present - Reversed Five of Pentacles
Future - Reversed Strength
Obstacle - Reversed Eight of Pentacles
Solution - Reversed The Star
The past card represents fairness. The present card represents improvement. The future card represents self doubt. The obstacle card represents lacking motivation. And the solution card represents low confidence.
When you consider these in light of the rune of today, it's pretty clear that today needs to be about finding joy where you can. The past has been unkind, but the present and future may show a glimmer of hope before returning to some darkness. If lacking motivation, perhaps finding it in something you did as a child could help offset the low confidence. Take the time to truly consider how very necessary joy is especially when it can be fleeting.
Until tomorrow, here's hoping you find tons of joy today and you spread a little light and love! ~ Solace
