 The Chariot upright is about choosing a direction and going for it.
Reversed, imagine your personal chariot is overturned – there is no direction, the energies (and car parts) are scattered across the highway, and you are immobile and unable to move. That's a reversed chariot. There may be other interpretations that fit, as well. Figure out which one is correct for you:
Questions answered by the Chariot: Who? Someone who needs car repairs; A mechanic; an unathletic person What? Self-doubt Where? A casino; a dead end; an overgrown forest When? A full moon; daytime; June and July Why? "If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading.” ~Lao Tzu Yes or No? No, unless you choose a different way What should I clean?

Here's some good advice from the Hierophant: Buy Faye's Fortune, a sweet contemporary romance about a fortune teller! 
Inguz is created two ways – either a diamond shape, or something that looks like a DNA strand. I prefer the DNA strand, because it is a reminder that Inguz is about internal growth. It literally means “seed” and is about the creation and power of the self.
The seed has been planted by the divine, and it is up to you to nurture it. Inguz cannot be reversed, as evolution happens whether we control it or not. Negative interpretations would depend upon other Runes in the reading. Inguz as a movie theme? Evolving yourself
Questions answered by Inguz: Who? Someone starting over; a baby What? DNA; an idea you had last winter Where? A freshly planted garden When? The end of May; Spring; today Why? “You can, you should, and if you’re brave enough to start, you will.” ~Stephen King Yes or No? Yes, but ruminate on it a bit more before you do anything rash What should I clean?
Where are my missing keys?
I have no personal anecdotes to share about Inguz, because I am constantly reimagining and evolving myself. This month I got a puppy, last month I got into a Master's degree program, the month before that I published a book. What will next month bring for me? Inguz might know, but it would depend on other stones in the reading. It also depends on where my ADHD brain takes me! 
Laguz means lake and sounds like “L” which is easy enough. It almost looks like an L too, if that L was reflected in a mirror on the ceiling. Like a mysterious reflection, Laguz covers the subconscious, dreams, emotions, and psychic ability – things that are just out of reach from our logical mind. Mannaz was the conscious intellect. Laguz is the subconscious shadow. The reverse of Laguz is emotional manipulation, fantastical ideas, fear, or avoidance. Laguz as: ...an action?
...a place in your city?
...Something to eat?
...a new career?
I used to love taking naps and recording my dreams. Unfortunately I don't sleep anymore with this new puppy, but what I have started doing is drinking tons and tons of water (also a Laguz suggestion) so that, like my puppy, I have to wake up every two hours to pee. It's going great! For more on the mysterious unconscious lake of Laguz, pick up Applied Runes: |
