I take some time in my inner rune realm to ponder spiritual progress, and the best way forward. In the mundane world, we use the runes to try and bring change to the physical experience relating to wealth, health, and fame. However, often the change we desire goes deeper than that. To deliver into the depths of a true change, we need to change on a deeper level, and that is one of the esoteric dimensions I would like to share with you.

The mechanism of deeper change lies within the archetypal realm, in the exploration of our personal myth. Like the eddas and sagas telling stories about the gods, we need to tell the story of our own individuation, a process of becoming our true selves. This is not a mere retelling of our physical self but a retelling of our imaginal self, a realm where the archetypes of the collective unconscious come to life within our own unique psyche. Think of it as your fairy tale where anything is possible, a narrative that reflects the interplay of the shadow, the anima/animus, and the wise old man/wise old woman within.

Myth, however, is not just fantasy. It integrates reality into the imaginative, much like the active imagination technique employed by Jung. By crafting and changing the myth, we engage in a process of confrontation with the unconscious, bringing to light the hidden aspects of our psyche that hinder our growth. We rewire the strings of necessity by transforming the archetypal patterns that unconsciously govern our behavior.

Through the mists of consciousness, I perceive my authentic self—an entity unfettered by the constraints of time and space. As dawn breaks on this pivotal day, my thoughts turn to victory, but not the mundane triumphs of everyday life. I contemplate the victory of self-actualization, where SIG manifests as an arrow of pure intent, cutting through the illusions of the ego with greater precision than FA, more focused than the all-encompassing HAG-ALL.

In this sacred moment, I align myself with the wellspring of creative spirituality that flows through my being. True victory belongs not to the physical self, but to the Self, the transcendent center of the psyche that encompasses both the conscious and unconscious. I stand at the threshold of transformation, seeking to view myself through the lens of infinity, to reshape not just my present form, but my very essence in the tapestry of karma.

This metamorphosis I seek transcends the superficial adjustments of daily existence. It is a fundamental realignment of my spiritual trajectory, a deliberate redirection of my libido, the life force that drives our psychological energy. Today’s sacred work delves deeper than material reality, piercing the very core of my being with transformative intent. This is not a transformation that can be captured in mundane goals or measured by earthly metrics—it must be lived, breathed, and experienced in the depths of consciousness.

How does one articulate that which defies description? The ethereal self requires a different language altogether. Logic and reason must bow before the power of myth and story, for only through these timeless vessels can we navigate the waters of the unconscious. In the realm of personal mythology, we discover our Self, liberated from the chains of physical limitation and the tyranny of the ego.

On this day, I shall journey into the landscapes of my personal myth, seeking victory first in these inner realms of infinite possibility. Within these mythic territories, I can finally confront the shadows that have long awaited challenge—knowing that transformation of the myth precedes transformation of reality. Like the knights of old, my quest for the Grail begins not in the outer world, but in the inner sanctum where patterns and ideas dance in eternal communion.

This is the path to authentic change and true victory. The esoteric wisdom of SIG reveals itself: to transform one’s reality, one must first transform one’s myth. In this sacred understanding lies the key to profound metamorphosis, where personal mythology becomes the catalyst for cosmic transformation and the journey of individuation.
