These are very interesting cards. For this reading, it’s almost hard to say where the meaning of one card ends and the other begins. The message here is about action and moving forward from emotionally traumatic situations. There comes a time when staying where you are becomes more painful than moving forward. That is when transformation takes place. That moment is now. It’s time to move forward. You don’t need to have everything figured out. Just move forward. Take the lessons you have learned, give reverence to the past, and move forward toward the light.
Kenaz literally means “torch.” This rune represents fire or illumination. Our ancestors gathered around fire with their kindred to cook, share warmth, and pass down stories and knowledge. This brings back memories of sitting around a campfire in the mountains roasting marshmallows and telling stories with family and friends. To our ancestors, fire was both a life and cultural sustaining force.
The 3 of Pentacles represents collaboration and garnering of resources. This is a time to carefully evaluate the energies and resources you need in your life. It is time to hold tight to what suits you and let go of what does not.
You are a warrior of the light. Keep shining your light and speaking truth. These times can be lonely, but your tribe is out there. Find your kindred spirits. Find those with your same values; those with whom you can build community and share the wisdom of the ages.
