Letter: P
Represents: Initiation, Things Unexplained, Something Hidden
A hieratic or mystery rune pointing to that which is beyond our frail manipulative powers.
Perth is associated with the Phoenix, the mystical bird which consumes itself in the fire then rises from its own ashes.
Its ways are secret and hidden. Powerful forces of change are at work here. Yet what is achieved is not easily or readily
shared. After all becoming whole - the means of it - is a profound secret.
On the side of the Earthly or mundane, there may well be surprises, gains or rewards that you did not anticipate.
On the side of human nature this Rune is symbolized by the flight of the eagle. Soaring flight, free from entanglement,
lifting yourself above the endless ebb and flow of ordinary life to acquire broader vision - all this is indicated here.
Perth stands for the heart of Initiation - Nothing external matters here, except as it shows you in its inner reflection.
This Rune is concerned with the deepest stratum of our being, the bedrock on which our destiny is founded.
For some Perth means experiencing some form of death - or transition. It is a letting go of everything, no exceptions,
and no exclusions. Nothing less than renewal of the Spirit is at stake.
Hidden information and truths, mysteries, esoteric, that which is unknown on a conscious level, it could come into the
light and you would understand the 'higher meaning' of things.
Reversed: Events stalled, you need to clear out something - unpleasant surprise - the old way has to come to an end, do
not focus on outcomes, nor bind yourself with memories of past achievements or you will orb yourself of the true present.
When your inner being is shifting and reforming, on a deep level, patience, constancy, and perseverance are called for.
Do not repeat the old. Let it go!
The initiation - the veils of the illusion are being lifted - let the old ways go!
Stay centered, see the humor and keep your faith firm.
