(19) Inspiration - Candlelight
Illuminate the helpful catalysts which motivate you in whatever pursuits serve your well-being and that of your fellow creatures.
Who are your worthy role models? What stimulates your ingenuity – encouraging friends, helpful books, uplifting movies, social debate, online tutoring etc? Where else do you look for inspiration?
Can you, in turn, set an inspiring example and shine your light for others to follow? Yes - you can!
You can think of inspiration as the process of being mentally and emotionally motivated to do or to feel something.
Being inspired promotes worthwhile thoughts and actions; you are empowered to find pragmatic means for expressing yourself, for helping others and for nurturing the environment.
You are being challenged by the Rune of Inspiration to look for energising sources of motivation. Perhaps you are thinking about embarking on a new project? Or are you wondering how best to focus your time and expertise in support of a good cause? Maybe you would like to reinvigorate an existing relationship or finish a stalled venture and need fresh inspiration.
Whatever your current circumstances, it serves your purpose to identify stimulating role models – people who deserve your admiration and respect, small groups or large organisations with philanthropic accomplishments, supportive media such as rousing music, contemplative paintings, stirring written words or the profound experience of being in awe and wonder of the natural world.
This Rune also informs you that inspiration alone is impotent without new exploits, be they physical or mindful endeavours. Therefore, remember to make and implement a practical action plan in order to manifest whatever it is you are feeling inspired to do.
You can be galvanised into action by Hannibal’s advice: “we will either find a way or we will make one.” It is your choice to find or make a fresh path on which you can build an inspirational set of life practices for the benefit of all.
With a Candlelight symbol, this Rune en'light'ens you as to the immense possibilities of using your skills and talents wisely. The power of a single candle to light another and then another exponentially is remarkable.
So prepare yourself to take a few risks, be bold enough to speak your truth and shine the light of inspiration for others to see and emulate.
This Rune is a member of The Inquiry Set encompassing attributes which require active curiosity, objective reasoning, the capacity to question yourself and mind-training.
"If you are lucky enough to find a way of life you love, you have to find the courage to live it." John Irving
