Description

"To know that we know what we know, and to know that we do not know what we do not know, that is true knowledge."

Kenaz - Torch, fire, hearth, heat, light, enlightenment, knowledge, craft, tradition, experience.

Kenaz symbolizes the control and harnessing of fire for warmth and illumination. It represents our having harnessed forces and energies greater than ourselves. It's the rune of light, fire and heat. With light comes clarity and insight, but with heat comes transformation.

Kenaz is the rune of the artisan who is unafraid to pursue their inspiration. Work with Kenaz through baking, smithing, pottery, carpentry, painting and the development of any technical or creative skill.

Furthermore the Kenaz Rune signifies awakening and growth. It alludes to shaping, molding, and creation in a positive sense. While fire is destructive unchecked, under guidance it leads to the creation of beautiful things. In one instance fire can illuminate, and in another instance it can forge.

Since Kenaz is directly related to fire, it symbolizes a purifying and transformative force. Unattended it will either go out, or grow out of control. However, with focus the fire serves a useful purpose. Its form also represents a later rune called Isa, which means Ice. Kenaz is the Ice broken in half.
