Mannaz

From the 14th to the 29th of April, it is the fortnight of the rune Mannaz. The specific hour of this rune is 7:30 to 8:30 and it is the god Heimdall who is in relation with Mannaz.

Mannaz itself actually means ‘mankind’. This rune is very much the rune of men and women as its meaning implies, and is in association with the ash and elm trees due to the mythological story that the first humans were made from the wood of the very trees.

While in the use of divination, Mannaz when upright it tells that it has to do with the person who the divination is for. It may be of one’s status and how others view you, it may be that there is the deluding of oneself. Taking a good look at one’s actions is a good idea if an upright Mannaz appears, as it is tells it is a good thing to look at one’s own behaviour over criticising the behaviour of others.
Taking a look at one’s own motives and aims is also of good idea. Taking one’s time in making decisions is of what Mannaz tells in the upright position.

Inverted, Mannaz tells that a person close bears ill will towards you, an enemy is even suggested but this is not always the case.
