Introduction:

The name of this rune is derived from 'kernan' the ancient Germanic word for 'Knowing', and is translated as 'Torch'.

Interpretation:

Upright.
A time of clarity when many things will become clear. Enlightenment. From darkness and confusion comes light and realisation, now is the time to focus your energies in to breaking through. The future holds good luck and good fortune.

A good time for looking at oneself to gain a greater understanding.

Brings warmth and protection. Ken suggests vitality and new energy. An inspirational and creative force that can open new opportunities.

Inverted.
A loss of clarity. Relationships may be coming to an end or other situations may be closed off to you. The fire has gone out of life. Entering a time of emptiness, a contemplative time, but negative thoughts of the past must be swept away and not dwelt upon.

A time of change that is necessary but may not immediately be welcomed.
