Bindrune to Increase Joy
If you are new to working with bindrunes, I suggest you read the introductory bindrune post here, then return to this post to read about this specific bindrune.
No amount of external elements—admiration, affection, conversation, sex—will ever be enough to satisfy a person whose internal compass does not point to joy.
~ David Finch
People need joy quite as much as clothing. Some of them need it far more.
~ Margaret Collier Graham
Happiness is good, but fleeting, as it is derived from external sources and events. Joy comes from within, and can be experienced even in the most awful circumstances. This week’s bindrune is designed to help you tap into your joy, and let it grow and sustain you, regardless of what the external situation may be.
Bindrune to Increase Joy: Nauthiz, Gebo, Wunjo
Nauthiz (far left tile, rune in black): Nauthiz is the rune of need. When your true needs are fulfilled, you are content, and contentment increases joy.
Gebo (center tile, rune in blue): The rune of gifts, both giving and receiving, Gebo is a reminder to give generously and receive graciously. Whether the exchange is one of emotion, time, effort, money, or energy, giving authentically and receiving with awareness create healthy emotional balance.
Wunjo (right tile, rune in gold): Golden and shining, Gebo is the embodiment of joy. By acknowledging the joy you feel, you create more joy, perpetuating a virtuous cycle.
The bindrune on the left was done in colored pencil. The one on the right was done with fine point calligraphy markers. They are shown in two different media to give an idea of how the same bindrune looks different depending on how it is created.
You could put a drop of sunflower or marigold oil to reinforce the positive energies, or a drop of your favorite oil on it to reinforce the energy with your personal scent. You can also use a magical oil, such as a hoodoo oil or other type of specially prepared oil.
Wishing you great joy, today and every day!
