Kenaz Reversed
Kenaz Reversed represents an ending of some sort. Kenaz Reversed indicates there will be a loss of possessions; social standing, or an offer will be withdrawn. Kenaz Reversed foretells material limitations in your life. With Nied, Isa or Othel Reversed, a loss or delay will block your progress and cause you anxiety. You might be exercising poor judgment now. Confusion regarding romantic involvements may be present. Kenaz Reversed shows up at a time when the people involved will go their separate ways. This is especially true if Nied or Nied Reversed is present. The advice of this rune reversed is: do not cling. Accept the changes and get on with life.
Converse: Beware hidden danger. What appears to be the true path may be a false trail. Something dark or cold may conceal great energy. For the wound-ulcer interpretation: treat a minor medical condition before it worsens.
