Runic Astrology May 19th - 25th: What do the runes have in store for you this week?

Divination in runes is an ancient art that can be traced back to the Norse God Odin. Old scriptures show that the Vikings then continued this tradition - they even used used[rune symbols in jewellery, clothing and weapons to boost their energy.

When we're born, we all get our own rune stone (find yours here). This birth rune indicates the abilities, talents and resources that you bring into your life.

But as the universe is constantly changing, daily, weekly or monthly runic astrology can tell you how events, actions and things affect your life. It can also reveal what energies, events and changes are occurring, and how you can best act on them. A runic horoscope is a guide to your spiritual journey and a guide on how to live life to the fullest.

Something you haven’t said is pressing to come out. It requires courage but also a bit of finesse. This is a week where deep connection can deepen or be lost if you hold too tight. Be honest, but empathetic and warm.

You long for movement and new horizons, but something holds you back. It’s not necessarily negative, just a bit demanding. Listen to your gut feeling. The week gives you small signs if you open your senses and look for them. Ask yourself a new question instead of demanding an old answer.

You long for something more but don’t quite know what it is. Maybe you just need to try something new without knowing where it leads. There is energy in just trying. Trust the movement, even without a map.

You usually know what you want, but this week something feels off. Maybe the old goal is no longer as important? It’s okay to adjust the course even if you’ve come far. Ask yourself: Am I doing this for myself or out of habit?

You might feel a bit restless, like there is something you should do but don’t know what. Avoid digging yourself down into a sense of duty, but be curious about what actually makes sense. It’s not always about performing. Think less about goals and more about the direction you want to move in.

Something is happening. You are a bit on the outside, but that also gives you perspective. While others run around, you think a bit further ahead. That is needed now, but don’t forget to be present here and now too. Be farsighted, but keep your feet on the ground.

You might feel a bit on the sidelines, like an observer in your own life. At the same time, that’s where you often see most clearly. Someone needs exactly the perspective you take for granted. Share a thought you usually keep to yourself. It could lead to surprising developments.

Your feelings are strong, but you don’t need to do anything about them right away. Sometimes it’s enough to just feel. You understand more than you think. Be quiet enough to hear your own inner voice. Avoid letting everyday trivialities and duties take you away from the concentration around the decision you have to make.

There’s a lot going on inside right now, and it may bubble over a little. You dream big but might forget to put your foot down where it’s needed. You’re not weak because you feel a lot. Feelings don’t always need to be explained, just acknowledged.

Something new is brewing, and you feel it as a tingling in your body. It’s like your whole self wants to move forward even though you don’t quite know where you’re headed. It’s not about speed now. It’s about choosing direction. Use your energy on what builds you up.

You feel a push from behind and want to throw yourself into new things. You may say yes a little too quickly, but that’s also where you get the most life. A small need to assert yourself can create sparks. Use your will to build up, not break down.

You stand steady, but something inside you longs to let go a little. Security doesn’t always give you what you need. Something could become more valuable if you dare to change it. Feel where you hold too tightly. Let go and open up for development.

You think a lot about what is yours, both in the close and material sense. Something you’ve postponed for a long time will feel easier to tackle now. You don’t need to rush, but you must be honest with yourself. Ask yourself a question you’ve been avoiding.

You are in flow, and everything is moving a bit faster now. Your thoughts are everywhere, which is both inspiring and exhausting. Amidst all this, there is an idea that actually means something. Catch what sparkles, but remember not everything that glitters is gold. Trust your intuition. Take time for meditation.

Life shines a bit extra when the sun shines on you, and you feel more awake. You want to say everything, mean everything, and be everywhere. But the best happens when you stop and really listen. Take a walk alone and let your thoughts settle. The second half of the week can feel groundbreaking.

What you feel goes deep, and some days you feel everything all at once. You don’t need to understand everything to be part of what’s happening. It’s safe for you to open up too. Share a little more than usual, even if it feels challenging to bring out personal thoughts and feelings.

You keep your cards close to your chest, but some still see what you feel. An old worry may come back, but this time you are stronger. Don’t be afraid to let go of control. Trust is not naive. It’s actually quite brave.

You get more attention than usual, which can feel both good and demanding. You want to be strong, but it’s also okay to have doubts. No one loses their sparkle by showing vulnerability. Live with your heart, not the facade.

You are drawn to people who wish you well, but also those who challenge you. This is a week for learning, but also for laughing out loud at yourself. Something new is budding inside you, and it could become something really big. Don’t underestimate the value of being a beginner.

Everything in you wants to clear up and take control, but the world may not cooperate. Perhaps the most important thing this week is to endure that not everything goes as planned. It is in the imperfect that you grow the most. Let things be a little unfinished. It can still turn out fine.

You long for order, but the world won’t tidy itself up for you. Instead, you might discover small beautiful details in the messy and unpredictable. Some see you, even when you’re not trying to be seen. Let go a little more of control and be creative.

You weigh pros and cons, and your heart pulls in several directions. It’s hard to choose, but not choosing is also a choice. It’s time to trust your gut feeling. Avoid waiting for balance – create it yourself. Follow your intuition.

You may find yourself in the crossfire between two personalities with different opinions, trying to balance them. It’s tiring but also somewhat rewarding when you get it right. But the week is primarily about finding your way back to yourself and your own voice. Go for what is everlasting – yourself.

You have been holding something back for a long time in a certain area or maybe in a relationship, and now it wants to come out. It’s not always easy to be honest, but you know it must be done. You can set boundaries without creating drama. Say what you need to say, calmly and diplomatically.
