Hagalaz - literally means "hail, hailstones", the esoteric meaning is"crisis or radical change". Key areas include: crisis and catastrophe, disruption, destructive elements of nature, uncontrollable, unavoidable unpleasantness, "Jung's shadow", psychoanalysis, regression, acceptance of the unchangeable.
Hagalaz reports a fundamental shift of energies. The hailstones first shock you with their icy hardness(confrontation) and then dissolve into water, allowing seeds to germinate(tansformation).
Spiritual awakening often comes at a time of deep crisis. Hagalaz is not the ninth rune by chance, the nine signifies the completion of the perfect structure (the 9 months of the child's maturation in the mother's womb). In this sense, it is a protective rune that helps us to accept the unchangeable, and to shelter in hiding and wait patiently for the storm to pass.
Hagalaz has the magical power of "spring cleaning". It reveals personal history, past lives and environmental influences from early childhood that are ready to be cleansed.
