This layout is as simple as it gets. It leaves out the idea of the past and focuses on the present (that which is) and the future (that which is becoming).

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.

Separation
As its shape suggests, Othila signals a time of separation. You may leave behind a romantic partner or a possession — regardless, there is something you must shed. Blum notes that this rune in particular can be applied to the modern world, given how often we must make choices in our daily lives. "Whether it is your attachment to your position in society, to the work you do, or even to your beliefs about your own nature, the separation called for will free you to become more truly who you are," he writes. It's in what you choose to keep, after this separation, that will really inform you.
Othila's reverse has nearly a perfectly opposite meaning. It asks you to focus on the good of the group — your friends, loved ones, coworkers — and act in a way that will benefit everyone.
