Keep the energy of Algiz with you through the 3x3in or 8x8in Algiz painting. When designing each piece, colors are carefully chosen based on their known meanings and associations. The colors used reflect and enhance the meaning of the rune. Each piece is thoughtfully and carefully made by hand with love and intentions.
Being the most powerful defense (black) rune, Algiz is used very often by individuals as a symbol of protection (black). While typically associated with physical protection (black), it can also provide spiritual, mental, and emotional protection (black) as well. This means that Algiz can guard one from physical harm while also being able to guard one from those who mean to harm us psychologically. Algiz can be worn for general protection or if you are going into a situation where you expect danger may be present. Algiz can also be helpful to carry when anticipating interaction with those who may cause emotional damage.
In addition to being a powerful defense rune, Algiz is also strongly associated with divine connection (whtie). Algiz can be great to carry with you when wanting to keep connection with your god(s)/higher power. It is also a wonderful rune to place in your altar space to meditate upon to connect with your god(s)/higher power.
The idea behind this painting was to create something that looked like a portal to the divine. The contrast between the black and white truly pulls you in as if your gods or higher power are calling to you. With that in mind, this piece could serve as a great meditation tool to help connect with your divine power.
All pieces are finished with an acrylic varnish for shine and protection. 8x8in pieces are installed with hanging wire for easy hanging.
