The very name Dagʀ is something of an attention-stealer: with the frank clarity of the plainly obvious, the rune's name speaks to us of the Sun, the Day, the Light. But, factually if not literally, this is only half of the story.

The rune itself does not signify the single pole of Day so much as the entire axis encompassing the twin poles of Day and Night, as suggested by the symmetry of the glyph itself. The refined understanding of the ancient Hellênes expressed in the last forwarded post which spoke of both Eôs and Nyx would not seem so strange or contradictory to the ancient Germans reckoning each Day as beginning with its Eve.

Dagʀ, then, stands not only for one major division of time but for a whole loop or cycle. An expectation. A καιρός. A pattern fit for prediction or even for understanding. A balance. A whole. And, ideally, a *right time* - whether for an event, or an idea,...or even for You.

"Hail to the Day! Hail to the sons of Day!
Hail to Night and her kin!"
