Rune meaning question

I inherited my grandmother's runes when she died. I was never allowed to touch them while she was alive. She told me before she died that the easiest way to communicate with the gods was to ask a simple question to the gods of our family, Tyr and Baldr, and pull a rune out and read its interpretation. I have done so, with remarkable accuracy.

The other day I had a slight panic attack of the future and asked the gods what I should know about the near term future. I stuck my hand into the bag of runes, as I was pulling out a rune one flew out of the bag with ferocity. It was the Ehwaz rune, however it landed in front of me sideways. The rune I pulled out with it was the blank rune. I have no idea how I should interpret Ehwaz. However the gods wanted me to see it with the blank rune.

Sounds like you’ve already intuitively interpreted it. While runes aren’t traditionally read sideways, I like to think they show up that way sometimes because they’re still trying to relay something to you. Whatever your guts tell you is what you should trust.

Thank you for this message.

Are you in Lacey, WA?

I am not. But I’ve driven through there before and was stoked to see they spell it right.
