Drawing this RUNE calls for emotional control. Be aware that opportunities and challenges are typical of this RUNE. Do not collapse yourself into your emotions but rather, be on your guard. The protection of ALGIZ is like rustling sedge grass or the horns of an Elk, both serve as a warning and to keep an open space about you, a form of protection. REVERSED: Be careful of new ventures at this time as well as keeping an eye on your health. Take responsibility at this time and be aware of others who may try to take advantage of you. Remember that ALGIZ's protective strength lies in temperance and courtesy.
