These runes represent the past, the present, and the future. In traditional divination, they would be connected to what led to your question, the nature of the question, and the ultaimte outcome of the question's answer.

    Fertility

    You draw Ingwaz when you are ready to emerge from an old state, or, in an everyday sense, abandon a bad habit. Something you began a long time ago is nearly finished, and don't be surprised if this is cause for celebration. You're reaching this completion thanks to your own work and effort. Blum explains that "you must fertilize the ground for your own deliverance" — in other words, you put in a lot and now it's time to take your reward.

    Ingwaz has no reverse, but it has another, equally valid interpretation. If there are no major conclusions on your horizon, take this as a prompt to prepare for one.

    Journey

    The journey in question is toward "self-healing, self-change, and union," Blum writes, which can only be reached through inner communication and alignment with yourself.

    You may notice that the rune of Joy's shape is nestled within Raido. This is no coincidence — when you draw this rune, your reward and that joy is in sight.

    If Raido appears reversed, look outside yourself, at your personal relationships. Be attentive and maintain your good sense of humor at this time — even in reverse, communication is key here.
