Discovering Wunjo In The Cave
Sundays can pose to be a difficult day for me. It is only difficult when my mindset is not right or aligned with the Universe. Sometimes instead of looking at the wonderful things the universe has put before me, I retreat into the thought process of It being the end of my weekend, my uninterrupted time with my soulmate and my return to the man-made world that is designed to keep me from being who I truly am and from the soulmate I desire to have all my time with.
I have had a difficult week of stumbling blocks put in my path and I have not been able to get my mind to avoid them. I have allowed the blockages to hamper my journey, to keep me from writing and to frustrate me spiritually. I needed the universe's help and as usual it did not disappoint me.
I was laying down in the arms of my soulmate and I began to relax my mind. I started to separate my soul from this shell and this realm and I began to travel.
It was all blackness at first as I left my body laying on the bed resting peacefully after a long week of challenges. Suddenly I arrived at my destination. I had traveled to a realm set in the stone age. I was on the ground near what I sensed to be an old Norse or Celtic settlement. I knew I was in an ancient civilization.
I looked to my left and I saw the beginning of a forest. Right inside of the forest was a cave going into a mountain. I walked into the cave taking in all the beauty of the realm around me. My attention was drawn to a wall in the cave. On this wall was a bunch of writing carved into the rock. Curious, I approached the carvings or drawings to see what they were. A light shined on one of the drawings bringing my attention to it.
I knew immediately the universe had brought me to this realm for a message. As I looked close I realized the image that was enlightened was a drawing of an ancient rune. Just starting my journey into rune reading, I was not familiar enough with which rune it may be. So I knew when I came back to my realm I would have to look it up.
That was all the universe had for me on this journey. I left the cave, traveled back to my own realm and was once again laying in the arms of my soulmate. I looked into her eyes and without thinking I just said, “I'm going to be positive today in my outlook and I am not going to give any energy to those negative thoughts the world tries to put on us”.
We made ourselves a cup of coffee and took our normal seats next to each other to begin our normal morning routine of reading. Out of the blue my soulmate looked over at me and said have you ever astral traveled? I replied I think I have many times. She then began to tell me how she had astral traveled while laying in my arms this morning. She described her journey to me and I was excited to hear her experience. Then I told her I also traveled while laying in her arms. It is amazing how the energy the two of us shared allowed both of us to travel through the universe to different places.
So what was the rune I saw? It was the rune Wunjo. The meaning of which just amazed me. First it is from Freyas Aett, the first set of 8 runes which Is creation or the life cycle. Its element is water and I am a water sign. Its polarity is male. Its astrological correspondence is Scorpio and I am A Scorpio. I was already amazed at how this was lining up.
So what is its meaning? It denotes the ability to be in harmony with the flow of life. It symbolizes comfort for where you are in life. It is an understanding of self worth and HELPS YOU SEE LIFE FROM A POSITIVE POINT OF VIEW. Ok, let me stop for a second. I highlighted that statement in caps. So I go on this journey, the universe reveals to me a rune. I have been led to learn and read runes but am not familiar with all of them yet. I don't know what the rune is the universe revealed to me. But the very first statement I make when my journey ended was “I am going to be positive today in my outlook," after seeing a rune that means that.
Now you may be thinking of synchronicity and alignment with the universe. I agree with that. But I also have to go deeper. I believe I have been drawn to read runes because it is a part of my ancestry and was something I had done in past lives. I believe I knew what that rune meant, that I recognized it and my consciousness allowed me to speak the meaning when I came back. My consciousness was still in that world of my past life and recalled and spoke the meaning of the rune.
Back to the meaning of Wunjo. The next meaning revealed to me is this: it teaches us a positive outlook on life, even in our world filled with negative emotions. This rune reminds us that the world does not consist only of the negative emotions because there are positive emotions, true friendship, love, and joy. All of us have it all but maybe you just don't want to see it.
We can summarize the meaning of Wunjo in these statements: it supports the desire to achieve the goal, restores strength, cleans from worries, eliminates alienation in relationships with loved ones, removes energy blocks, builds self-esteem, creates a feeling of psychological comfort, and helps to improve your mood.
Wow. These are all lessons I needed to learn this week and confirmations of things someone special told me! I needed this rune to remove the blocks I had and to improve my mood.
I really don't know how to nor do I want to close this blog on this amazing experience and journey. The synchronicity of my soulmate and I both astral traveling without each other knowing and me speaking the meaning of the rune that I didnt know in my current life, but knew in a past life are just an amazing step forward in our spiritual journeys. . What a revelation by the universe in my time of need. I look forward to a positive week ahead, my work to achieve my goal, a week without worry, and all the joy and love that my time with my soulmate provides.
Do you have an interest in runes? Astral travel? Would you like to have a rune reading done for some aspect of your life? Please let me know in the comments and I would be happy to help you!
Blessings!
