Alignment Magick: a Runecasting
In the center of the runecasting sits a witch rune. The Star represents desire, and since magick is desire made manifest, it seemed appropriate for this runecasting. The runes from the Elder Futhark surrounding the witch rune signify the energies required for casting her intentions. The three above the witch rune are nonphysical energies and the three below are energies of physical form. The witch stands in the center, aligned, ready to blend energies as she sees fit for her greater purpose.
Aware of her Source Presence, when performing a spell or ritual for alignment, the witch raises her own vibrational resonance. But in so doing, she also raises the resonance of all. All magick from an aligned state flows in nonresistance. Raising her own vibration seeks alignment with Source, her energy now fully focused on her intention.
Fehu, Ansuz, and Uruz comprise the nonphysical energies influencing the witch. All three runes are from the first Aett addressing the basic issues of form. Fehu, the sending rune, brings an intensity to her magickal alignment as she manifests her intention. A Fire rune and the first rune in the Elder Futhark, Fehu invokes the witch’s life force, increasing the spell’s effect.
Ansuz, as the Mind rune, is a witch’s source of inspiration. The fourth rune in the Elder Futhark and considered Odin’s rune, Ansuz is a creative force to achieve clarity and awareness as it assists the witch in channeling her Higher Self. Ansuz inspires the witch to communicate her intention to align with Self.
Finally, Uruz, the second rune in the Elder Futhark, as a creation rune increases the witch’s strength. A Water Element rune, Uruz is the rune of changes, assisting the witch in shaping and manifesting her desired outcome, her will strengthened by the manifesting power of Uruz.
The numerology of the nonphysical influences is interesting. Using their position in the Elder Futhark, we have 1, 4, and 2 which add up to 7, the number of magick.
The lower line of runes representing physical influences on the witch include Mannaz, Eihwaz, and Ehwaz. The 18th, 14th, and 17th runes of the Elder Futhark, their numbers reduce to 9, 5, and 8. From there, added together they equal 22, the Master Builder, a Master number representing innovation and success.
One rune, Eihwaz, is from the second Aett representing the emotional and psychological aspects of form. The remaining two runes, Mannaz and Ehwaz, are from the third Aett representing our relationships with others. Beginning with Mannaz, an Earth Element rune, we have influences of partnership and our own humanity, blending intuition with rationality. The witch’s intellectual presence is increased with Mannaz, assisting her in achieving balance and synchronicity.
Eihwaz, the rune of paradox, is the witch’s connection between physical and nonphysical realms. Eihwaz, considered both an Air and Fire rune, removes barriers and aids in protection, moving and transforming energies as needed from one state to another.
Ehwaz, a Water rune, binds together energies for an intended outcome, moving the witch swiftly past obstacles as she transforms and elevates, a successful outcome assured.
With respect to ascension, the witch stands fully awakened to her path. She stands apart from the illusion of physical form, aligned and extending that alignment to others. She doesn’t play in the muck of physical form. Instead, she aligns with Source Presence and in doing so, raises her own vibration and that of those around her, effecting far more change than spells focused on specific behavior will ever accomplish.
Aligning and then casting that intention to the collective consciousness allows others to choose their way forward, awakening or not. The witch provides a tether, so to speak, to Self in the collective consciousness. Awakening to one’s Source within is the simplest thing anyone can do, yet from the standpoint of physical form, we’ve convinced ourselves that it’s something we must work our way back to. We don’t understand that all that’s needed is remembrance of Self.
The witch’s own alignment is felt by all as she raises her own vibration. Fehu increases the intensity of her alignment, Ansuz her clarity, Uruz her powers of manifestation. Balance and synchronicity are supported by Mannaz, Eihwaz transforms her magickal power and will, and Ehwaz brings the spell to fruition and a successful outcome. The numbers 7 and 22 bear this out, her magick a success.
The goal is not specifically changing someone’s behavior, but raising the vibrational resonance so that awakening takes place. Focusing upon specific behavior takes the focus there and applies resistance to the situation. Aligning with Source Presence, the need for destructive or chaotic behavior disappears like a weight removed from our shoulders. We feel lighter somehow, as if no longer held back from our real purpose.
When the witch aligns and then sends that intention to the collective consciousness, she creates the space for awakening to unfold for all. She doesn’t define the outcome for anyone, only the space for choice.
Blessed Be
