Yin: Blue
The blue energy brings mental strength, intelligence, and understanding – the clear-thinking, conscious energy that is responsible in actions. It's an exploration of expression. Blue provides energy for different roles and personal identity. Blue is about expression and communication, standing in your truth, being honest, fair, thoughtful, wise, but also detached and having oversight. The term "attitude" here refers to an identity that is inherent, like working on your personality and strengthening yourself. Stand up for yourself, be present, especially with yourself.
Why Blue?
Start by asking yourself, are you balanced enough, in perfect alignment with yourself, to stand up for yourself? Probably, if this energy reveals itself. Now you can focus entirely on what you want to achieve. Even if it's just a thought, it’s not just a possibility—it's your strongest power right now. The power of thought is also the strongest energy we have, so now you can actualize whatever you most wish for.
Astrology: Mercury in Gemini
This indicates that you are articulate, possessing the gift of gab, not just speaking ability—you can express yourself easily when you wish. You can gesture with your whole body, clearly showing when you are happy or sad. You might also be overly communicative, constantly seeking new ideas to develop. You easily question the first thought to see if it might become something else. Others may find you outgoing, but simultaneously, you can filter people out—some feel they can’t get close to you no matter how pleasant you are in interactions.
Bind Rune: Naudiz-Tyr
These are equivalent regardless of which rune you carve first. Naudiz enhances Tyr with consequence-thinking from actions, Tyr strengthens Naudiz with more decisiveness. Use this bind rune when you need to take powerful action where you know the consequences, but remember that Naudiz comes first in the rune chain. You now have all the possibilities with you to be in your truth, to change, and recreate for the very best outcome.
Seagull as a Power Animal
Shows that freedom is what matters most to you, being your own person without demands, going your own way. You can survive any situation, used to being a bit misunderstood, but that doesn’t concern you as long as you can soar freely in your own space. It reflects a desire to be independent, thriving without responsibility, just following the paths that emerge. You're a lover of freedom, inherently a romantic who takes life as it comes, but doesn't like demands and responsibility. Life should be lived here and now. Take the chance, go out into the world, and realize your ambitions.
Black Tourmaline
You wish to see more aspects of life on a deeper level. Yet also want the full spectrum, both open and hidden. You are ready to pay attention to your surroundings, seeking truths about life and your next steps in your existence.
In the East (Work)
You have a zeal for bringing new things to life, and can be positively restless because you want to accomplish so much more. Ideas pour out of you, creative as you are, you want to do everything at once. You may be pushy but in a charming manner, convincing, impulsive in all you do.
In the South (Love)
You are highly energized, know exactly what you want, and understand how to act to achieve it. You find it difficult to pause, spinning with all your emotions. You want a lot, giving everything to get it. You're strong in your feelings and conviction. You know what you want and how to make it happen. Impulsive, you follow the feeling in the moment, which can lead anywhere as long as you’re experiencing it.
In the West (Finance)
You follow your impulses, dare to take risks, and get back what you wish for. You're focused, with a strong mindset on what you want, making it happen. You rely on your own power but also have "luck" on your side, what you wish for is likely to come. You have new ideas about how to improve your finances, providing many advantages and a better balance going forward. Now is the time to realize what you want, dare to think bigger.
In the North (Self)
You are now quick-witted, strong in your thoughts and focus, knowing what you want and how to get it. You are incredibly motivated, and there’s probably not much that can stop what you've set your mind to. You have the focus to realize your plans and have found your inner balance and strength.
In the Void (Spiritual)
You're daring to challenge yourself, think ahead, seek further, sensing an awareness of things you haven't before. You change your mindset, become more open-minded, dare to let go of old thought patterns, through which you experience more than before, also recognizing your own capabilities.
