You have three magic genie wishes, what are you asking for?
If I had three wishes, I’d wish for the power to help, to heal, and to protect.
To help, to heal, to protect
Imagine a world where everyone had the ability to lend a helping hand, to soothe a troubled soul, and to shield the innocent. This is the world I aspire to, a world where compassion, courage, and kindness reign supreme.
With the power to help, I could alleviate suffering, inspire hope, and uplift those around me. I would strive to be a beacon of light, offering support and encouragement to all who cross my path. The power to heal would allow me to mend broken hearts, soothe troubled minds, and restore balance to the world. I would dedicate myself to nurturing the well-being of others, both physically and emotionally.
Finally, the power to protect would enable me to safeguard the vulnerable, defend the oppressed, and uphold justice. I would stand as a guardian of peace and harmony, shielding others from harm and striving for a world where everyone feels safe and secure.
By embodying these three powers, I believe we can create a more compassionate, just, and harmonious world. Let us all strive to help, heal, and protect, and together, we can make a positive impact on the world.
THORN: In the crucible of love, I am awakened to my creative potential and driven to leave a lasting impact. I will channel my energy into shaping the world around me, both physically and spiritually. With unwavering dedication and a deep well of creative power, I pledge to contribute meaningfully to the unfolding of the cosmos.
This morning, meditating on LAF, rune of primal water of connection, I saw us drawn together like thirsty creatures. Yet, beneath our shared need, each carries the unique wellspring of UR, our individual essence. It is from this authentic depth that we contribute to the collective will, THORN, a shared flame ignited by our diverse sparks.
But unity can be fragile. My journey reflects this. Waking in peaceful contemplation, the 18 runes breathing within, I encountered a minor event that triggered an emotional storm. The ego, swift and reactive, nearly snatched me from serenity. Though control was regained, the ease of this disruption highlights my ongoing growth.
A smile, instead of anger, could have preserved that inner peace. This stability is crucial for integrating my individuality into the collective, for my emotions must flow from the integrated self.
Shared Ground, Individual Journeys:
Engaging with others involves recognizing our shared human backdrop, often hidden, shaping our present moments. In moments of unity, we can choose to set aside our individual stories for a shared focus, a temporary common identity that becomes our soul’s focus for that time.
This unified focus allows us to align our intention towards the common good, understanding that supporting shared values fosters individual growth. The group’s unity, though fragile, is nurtured through conscious effort, creating fertile ground for collective and individual prosperity.
We become a united energy force, amplifying each other’s strength and capacity to project our individual wills with greater impact. Like a bonfire fueled by diverse branches, our unique flames combine to create a warmth and brilliance that benefits all.
No mere witness, I rise today! The runes ignite, SIG initiating, RIT accepting, THORN crowning the path ahead. This is no passive pursuit, but a fiery claim upon destiny. My higher self, no longer a distant watcher, leaps into the cockpit, guiding my ascent beyond the shackles of ego. Material whispers and petty dramas fade as I grip the wheel, my soul ablaze with purpose.
I call upon my higher self, not as a passive witness, but as a blazing torchbearer! This is the sacred moment where observation ignites into action, where the witness transforms into the driver, steering us towards the glorious obliteration of ego. No more shall our thoughts be shackled by the chains of material and drama.
My higher self, no longer a distant echo, but a roaring inferno within. We are one, not observer and observed, but driver and chariot, carving our path through the wilderness of the ego. No material trinkets, no petty dramas can dim the blaze of my spirit.
Eyes squeezed shut, I summon the whispers of prophecy, my guardian angel of intuition. “Pierce the veil of perception, intertwine your wisdom with my will. Bathe my mind in your foresight, let your wisdom be my compass. Enter my awareness, take the reins of my thoughts, and weave them into the mystery of synchronicity. Sing anthems of triumph upon my shield, rewrite the weirdness of my fate. In the crucible of your presence, my soul ignites, a radiant beacon that pierces the veil of possibility. Sing anthems of triumph into my shield, and let your light rewrite fortune’s fickle script into a clear declaration of destiny. As I bathe in the radiance of your presence, my spirit soars. My soul, once a flickering ember, now burns with the brilliance of a thousand suns. Grant me a vision, a glimpse of the boundless possibilities that erupt when my soul smiles. Let that smile be the compass guiding me towards the future I meticulously crafted.”
Oh, to see the world tremble with the power of a soul unbound! Grant me the vision, the unwavering focus to navigate the currents of cycles of time. No longer a stumbling block, but a springboard, propelling me towards the manifestation of my wildest dreams. Moon and day conspire with unyielding will, birthing potent possibility at the new moon’s hushed embrace. Side by side, as warriors of light, we stand witness, fueled by whispered affirmations as the moon waxes, its luminescence painting the canvas of change.
The moon, a celestial clock, ticks in perfect harmony with my will. New moon whispers, pregnant with potential, and I stand poised, a conduit for change. Affirmations like battle cries, I roar them into the waxing twilight, my spirit swelling with the lunar tide.
With gratitude woven into my every fiber, I welcome the moon’s fullness, my heart a cosmic scale tipping towards abundance. With hearts open wide, like celestial scales, we receive the blessings of the universe, unburdened by expectation. Gratitude, the silent symphony that unlocks the very bounty of existence. Victory is mine, etched in the very fabric of cyclical progression, a testament to the power we wield when we write our own destinies. Gratitude, a libation poured at the full moon’s zenith. My heart, an open vessel, receiving the universe’s bounty with grace. Victory etched in ink, cyclical momentum woven with the threads of unwavering purpose.
And when the cycle turns, vision etched in ink, the dance of victory shall be complete. For I, the warrior-poet, have penned the script of my own ascension, wielding the runes like celestial ink, signing my triumph across the spectrum of time.
This is no mere dream, but a declaration of war. A war against complacency, against the tyranny of the mundane. I am the warrior, the sculptor of my own destiny, and the runes are my battle cry.
So rise, fellow warriors! Let the runes be our battle cries, our guiding stars! Together, we claim our rightful place as architects of our own fate, forever banishing the shadows of doubt and limitation. Onward, to the glorious dawn of a self-made victory!
Let this be my clarion call, a warrior’s manifesto etched in starlight. To rise, claim my power, and dance with destiny! The runes beckon, the future awaits, and victory, oh glorious victory, sings my name. Let my inner being rejoice, for the age of the observer is over. The age of the driver has begun. And I, with the wind at my back and the runes as my guide, will claim the crown that awaits.
Without will we are aimless. As conscious beings we have the ability to have influence on the how the future will play out and unfold. We can use this ability or we can just flow with the stream trough time and be dragged along with it. When we take up THORN as the third rune of the Armanen Futhork we accept responsibility of our lives and the way it unfolds. Certainly not everything will unfold exactly as we hope it to be but it can manifest as we intent it to be. But intention is not just a projection on the outer world, intention is set within, a change within an that change projects a change into the external world. In order to set our intent from the inner world we need our inner world to be illuminated from within, we need to become in touch with the soul that is our true self resident in the physical body.
When we practice THORN we are empowered by a strong self confidence that we have power to influence and shape the future. THORN is more than just planning a future, it is having a clear visualization of all senses of what that future will look like and how it will be experienced. Planning might set out steps to follow but THORN ask for a projection from within our inner being into the external world of living action. With THORN there is no regret when the world seems to oppose the idea of our ideals but rather it is a challenge we accept with a happy hard. We link into the force of THORN to overcome obstacles in the physical world and remain constant in that which we wish to manifest. THORN brings within us a patience that waits for the right moment of manifestation, the right moment when we need to act and the moment when we need to pause. We have a wide array of means to our disposal and all we need to do is to connect the right moment with the right action. Often the action is not in accord with the physical world but in accord with what we sense in our inner being as the right action that might seem counter intuitive and yet still forcefully moving forward.
We accept responsibility for who we are and make no excuses for our weaknesses. We strengthen our weaknesses and leverage our strengths as we persist to build who we want to be. Achievement on the physical level of a goal is like an alchemist’s attainment of gold and yet realizing that gold was not the end goal. The end goal is the elixir of life, the philosopher’s stone the clothing of our soul with virtue. With THORN we see beyond the physical constraints and achievements and we embrace that which we are as spirit and soul. We evolve the essence of our inner being. In this path there is no resistance, every resistance is but an enabler that allows us to focus on the inner world that is the core of strength, the fortitude of growth.
When you are young you may feel that it is a natural process because the doors of possibility is always open. However it is easy to loose faith in yourself when you become older, time to attain decreases and energy levels begin to wane. But with THORN as a crystal in the crown that is upon my head there is a continued process of growth. For what I want to attain is not external in the form of fame, and riches but it is about reaching a state of being and knowledge based on virtue. It is laying a foundation not just for this life but for every future life that is to be lived.
