POSSIBLE DIVINATORY MEANING: This Rune is an indication of planting your seeds or ideas.  As they germinate, grow and then are harvested at the end of a complete cycle or season, you can then partake in the completion of the handiwork of your patience and hard work. Drawing this Rune in a Past reading means you have completed that cycle.  Drawing this Rune in the Present means you are at the beginning of the cycle.  Drawing Jara in a Future reading means you are getting somewhere near the end of the cycle of completion of what you are doing. Do not speak ill of others until the facts are well known.  Once the word is spoken you can never take it back. This rune represents a period of time.  Where to you think you are in that cycle?  Are you beginning, in the middle or at the end?
