Introduction:

Jera symbolises the agricultural year. It represents the fruitfulness of the harvest and the communal celebrations that surround it. It is not coincidence that this rune is numbered 12, commemorating the 12 months of the year.

Interpretation:

Upright.

All things in life are cyclical, we can reap only what we sow. We must be prepared to nurture the seeds we plant and give them space and time enough to grow, only then will we enjoy fully the fruits of our labours.

Now may be the time to prepare for future growth.

Inverted.

This symbol cannot be inverted.
