Laguz, otherwise known as Laukiz, Lagu, Logr, Lago. I pronounce this one la-gooz although Umbrae may pronounce it differently cuz he has an American accent and mine's English.
Some say this Rune is representative of a Lake, and thus, Water, and all that is associated with that element. Some people say that in a reading, this Rune points to a receptive frame of mind, or the use of intuition. Others say that it points to an overflow of emotions, where one feels overwhelmed, usually by the emotions of love/affection, or the beginning of a new relationship.
Another meaning of Laguz is to be found in the cliché 'Go with the flow', pointing again to receptivity, but also to acceptance of the way things are. This Rune reminds us that sometimes the rational mind is impotent when dealing with certain situations, and in these situations, the intuitive mind must take over, and instead of fighting this part of the mind, we must learn to live with it.
Also stemming from the receptivity is a marvellous opportunity to learn, whether that learning take on the form of spiritual questing, or academic study. It points to the creative and expressive arts, and signifies that any obstacles blocking your path will be washed away by natural process.
Merkstave, this Rune can represent either the misuse, misinterpretation, or misjudgement of one's intuition: It could be blocked, imagined, or not listened to properly, and in this case, difficulties will ensue. Laguz Merkstave also points to problems with relatioships, or difficulty expressing one's emotions.
