Description:  Pewter pendant featuring the engraved Hagalaz rune, made for us by St Justin in Cornwall (UK). The alloy, 92% tin completed with copper and antimony, gives it strength. It comes with a 68 cm waxed leather cord with an adjustable sliding double knot, along with the official box and an explanatory certificate (in English). It belongs to the oldest runic series, the 24 Norse letters used by the ancient Vikings both for writing and for divination. The traditional meaning of Hagalaz is "hail". Like hail, Hagalaz symbolizes a destructive element in nature. These elements are not under our control. And this is often the case when Hagalaz appears. From a psychological point of view, Hagalaz represents the destructive forces moving within the unconscious. These forces come from the past and take the form of unresolved issues, unlearned lessons, and repressed memories that nevertheless continue to influence current behaviour. They are likely to cause distress and act as precursors to change. When Hagalaz appears in a reading, it indicates destruction on several levels, and even though it has no reversed position, it always acts as if it did. It is "the great awakening", in a single fatal blow it can sweep away your current understanding and perception of reality. At other times, Hagalaz can act by waking you from a deep sleep, gradually bringing you back to your senses. During this period, relationships may fail. Projects may fall through, and money resources may run short. The only power you can hope to use at the moment is your inner strength and willpower. Acting as a delay rune, Hagalaz is a strong warning against new beginnings. Limitations and delays are often imposed by nature, and are therefore not entirely negative. It is sometimes important to recognize that you have limits. Hagalaz's advice is to take a step back and be content. Trying to fight against fate at this time would likely lead to greater anxiety. Hagalaz is only received upright. As with zodiac signs, with some approximation, you can choose your rune according to your birth period, or by looking for the meaning that best suits you or the person you wish to give it to, an original gift for anyone who loves the mysterious charm of the ancient Celtic and Norse runes.
