about

Nauthiz reminds us to take a moment to assess what is needed, often and most importantly for ourselves. While digging into this rune's lore, I discovered that one aspect of its meaning is to discover the thing (or things) we need to work on most to heal the challenges we were born with. Once those things are tended, we can move forward most brilliantly!

lyrics

What is my challenge today?
What must I get out of my way?
What can I help and what can I heal?
Remember to listen to things that I feel

Need to create, need to explore
Need to feel deeply, yet want something more
Believe in my worth right down to my core
And know what my life is for

It's a karmic challenge...

Friction will lead to the fire
Dancing my way to desire
This need will bring healing to my careworn sould
Patience picking out knots with perfect control

Need to be free, need to be fine
Need to know I have plenty of time
Know I'm not always the last one in line
And its okay for my light to shine

Need to breathe fresh air, need to have dreams
Know I'm not alone in the things I have seen
Need to soar among stars and swim in the sea
Feel it all connect in me

It's a karmic challenge to heal your soul
And what it takes only you can know...
