Proceed with patience & make gradual but key changes every day to bring lasting rewards. Little tweaks and adjustments during the course of development will be necessary along with the occasional sacrifice in order to make headway. Thurisaz reminds you that some pain or discomfort must be endured for the reward that lies ahead. Things that are happening are meant to happen & are part of the grand cycle of life. Those things we are forced to endure will pave the way for good things to come since Jera represents something becoming better & greater ...especially after forced unfortunate changes.

Thurisaz indicates an important decision is at hand, one that may change the course of your life. Avoid regret made by hasty decisions. Since its paired here with Jera, it may be best to seek outside advice. Take your time or risk learning lessons the hard way.  Thurisaz asks you to be aware of boundaries- it’s important to know your limits. Confront these boundaries with contemplation- don’t force something you aren’t ready to confront. Thurisaz indicates this may be a time of personal risks- protect yourself from others looking to do you harm or betray your loyalty- be ready to defend yourself. Break through barriers or obstacles with enthusiasm rather than anger or fear. This will promote the right awareness & diminish the potential aggressive or destructive nature of Thurisaz. Challenge your limits & try to learn the positive things from less than optimum situations - gleaning the good from experiences that produce conflict.
