Sowelu embodies the impulse toward self-realization and indicates the path you must follow, not from ulterior motives, but from the core of your individuality.

Seeking after Wholeness is the Spiritual Warrior’s quest. And yet what you are striving to become in actuality is what you, by nature, already are. A Rune of great power, making life force available to you, Sowelu marks a time for regeneration right down to the cellular level.

“There is a life-enhancing prayer known as the Gayatri that embodies the spirit of Sowelu.
Address the sun in this fashion:

You, who are the source of all power,
Whose rays illuminate the whole world,
Illuminate also my heart
So that it too can do Your work.”

While reciting the Gayatri, visualize the sun’s rays streaming forth into the world, entering your own heart, and then streaming out from your heart centre, back into the world.

This is a powerful and life-enhancing prayer.

Again, there is a caution here not to give yourself airs.
Even in a time of bountiful energy, you are required to face and vanquish your refusal to let right action flow through you.

Nourish this capacity, for it is a mark of true humility!
Practice the art of doing without doing …
Aim yourself truly and then maintain your aim without manipulative effort.

For by our own power we do nothing.
Even in loving, it is Love that loves through us.

This way of thinking and being integrates new energies and permits you to flow into Wholeness, which is the ultimate goal of the Spiritual Warrior.” ~ Excerpts from The Book of Runes ~ by Ralph Blum
