The meaning of the rune Uruz
Rune Uruz – rune of the element of earth. The 2nd rune of the Futhark, belongs to the first Aett.
Uruz is strength, energy, pressure, power, effort, physical health, sexual potential, stubbornness.
The rune represents vitality, physicality.
Our health is an important indicator of vitality in the body and mind of a person. Life energy shapes a person’s consciousness in many ways.
It is impossible not to notice how different the consciousness of a physically healthy person is from the consciousness of a person who has to constantly struggle with illness. As the proverb says – “A healthy body has a healthy mind”.
But not for nothing in Futhark first rune is Fehu, symbolizing the strength of spirit, because when a person is developed in this major power, it can change a lot of his life, including the state of his health. We can say that the strenght of spirit includes the power of life, awakens the potential of life.
And the Uruz rune concentrates this life power. This rune is the strongest energy in its original form, and this energy can be creative, being sent to the constructive direction, the realization of ideas and creative ideas, or the rapid flow out of control, sweeping away all in its path, as a raging tempest.
Uruz exacerbates the earthly side of a person, increases sexuality and attraction to the opposite sex, giving men masculinity and women femininity. But there is no wisdom, knowledge in it, it is only a power that moves forward, no matter what.
