Story
The runes are partial to a connection to the elements, and here is another reference to water. But this one is about the lake, the river, the movement of water. It is about going with the flow or with your gut. Water cannot be controlled when it is moving. It will always find a way to get around the object. You cannot grab fistfuls of water, so don’t try.
Meaning
If Laguz appears in your reading, the message is pretty clear, go with the flow and trust your intuition. Whatever you are getting a reading on, there is an element of uncontrolled movement. But when Laguz is upright, the message is not to worry, the out of control is for good reason. Chuck your boat in the water and ride the waves.
Reversed Meaning
If you choose to acknowledge reversed meanings in your reading, then Laguz is perhaps saying we are out of control. The waters are getting a bit choppy and we don’t feel steady. Maybe it is time to pull ashore and wait until the waters have died down. But it could also be a reminder not to try to control what cannot be controlled.
