Characterisation
Possibly the darkest rune in the bag,
Thurisaz is the bringer of Chaos; He is a messenger of threat from those in
power but may not always bring that threat to fruition. He is a warning of
dishonesty and trickery, and offers a warning to resist temptation.
Thurisaz energy may seem unbalanced and
swayed dramatically towards evil but this is a fallacy – there is nothing to
fear from this rune; its balance lies in perceiving it as the force of the
human psyche and a warning of luck changing and possibly protection from that
chaos.
The ‘Thorn’ or point is a symbolic weapon –
used to stab, tear and pierce but can be used protectively – much like a thorny
bush.
Interpretation
Concentrating on the positive of this rune,
it does reveal the ability of its reader to overcome current or upcoming
obstacles – the capacity and potential to face anything. It is a message to
fear nothing as within you lays the authority to claim your own destiny. Take
charge and let your search for the truth be unhindered. This is not limited to
the physical world and your everyday life; it applies to spiritual authority,
how you command your path and the power your command creates. This in turn
creates a choice: how you choose to use the created power – for selfish or loving
motives. Power has the ability to corrupt if it is not used with a true and
honest heart.
The negative connotations of this rune are a
little more obvious: imminent chaos, obstacles or danger but keep in mind the
positive and know that you can get through difficult circumstance.
Reversed
Meaning:
The simplest interpretation of a reverse
Thurisaz is that evil can be overcome; obstacles are coming up and will be conquerable.
It is a good omen that things will improve in a bad situation. There is also significance
with Thurisaz in reverse that a difficult road ahead can be taken as danger is
slight.
Converse
(face down):
As a converse rune, the evil is hidden or
may appear disguised as good. It tells you to be wary of a situation that seems
too good to be true.
