Divination Meaning Standard:
When Uira is cast it is a positive sign that the adversity of the recipient can be overcome. The being that is receiving the cast has the strength and skills necessary to overcome any issue they will face. This is not a sign to say hold my beverage however; one still needs to exercise common sense and to keep one's wits when going about it. Uira says let go of ego and not subjugate others. This rune can also mean it is yet time again for change and to commit and like Tawar be courageous.
Divination Meaning Reversed:
When reversed in a cast Uira is disease and decay, the weakening of one's well being. Uira is saying that your under an attack of some sort; whether it be a sickness such as the cold prohibiting you,or even a possible spiritual attack. It warns that dark tidings are at hand and it's time to remedy such affairs and fight back. This could mean going to the doctor, or its time to renew one's wards, and conjure spell work in defense. When reversed Uira is a call to arms to heal and protect yourself.
