POSSIBLE DIVINATORY MEANING: A thorn is small, but it can really be felt!  This Rune also implies the mighty hammer of Thor.  It is also associated with luck and protection if used wisely. Importantly this Rune can indicate a point in your life when an important decision must be made but you feel very cautious about what decision to make.  It may be best to seek the counsel of an expert before making that important decision.  The problems and fears to be encountered can be creative challenges but the reason you are cautious is because you need to be!  There could be danger in the wrong choice if you grasp the world outside without the proper knowledge! Sometimes it is strongly advised to be very careful in making any important decision hastily and beware of evil, danger, untruths, and/or betrayal. If you haven't the self-confidence to act, then wait for expert advice or until you have thoroughly evaluated the situation after all the facts have been weighed carefully. What really is bugging you?  Do you need luck or protection?  No one is an island, get the help you need and quit being stubborn!
