Laguz

Water, lake. Water — intuition, the unseen current.

Water, intuition, and the subconscious. Flow with life's currents rather than fighting them. Dreams and emotions carry deep wisdom; the surface is not the lake.

Emotional overwhelm and confusion. You are drowning in feelings or denial. Fear blocks the flow of intuition; you mistake the tide for the shore.

Past: an emotional current that shaped you. Present: trust the gut. Future: the situation will move like water — let it. Reads softly with Perthro (mystery) and Berkano (gentle birth).

Laguz is the rune of the great waters — the lake, the inland sea, the well of memory beneath the World Tree. The Norse navigated by water and divined by it; Laguz is both the way and the warning.
