Step 5 of 8 · Sacrifice and What It Buys
Tiwaz
Why this step
Tiwaz belongs to Tyr, who sacrificed his hand to bind Fenrir, and on this site it is the rune of justice, honour and sacrifice made for what is right. The upright reading admits the cost is real but honest. The reversed reading is the warning: a sacrifice made for nothing because the cause was not worth it, and martyrdom without purpose.
