Ingwaz

Ing (god of fertility). Ing — seed sealed, completion assured.

Fertility, completion, and inner peace. A seed planted reaches fruition. Relief and resolution come after a period of waiting; the work below the soil is done.

This rune is non-invertible. It carries the same charge however it falls.

Ingwaz has no reversed meaning — completion is assured. The seed will sprout when conditions are right, not when the gardener insists.

Past: a project finally finished. Present: a quiet, fertile pause. Future: a completion that brings peace. Cannot reverse — the kernel always holds. Pairs warmly with Berkano, Jera and Othala.

Named for Ing, an early god of fertility and peace, ancestor of the Ingvaeones (Anglo-Saxon root tribe). His rune is shaped like a sealed parcel — a thing wrapped, ripening, soon to open.
