This is one of those runes for which the "reversed" interpretation
is the same as the "upright" interpretation (for further
explanation of this see the page about reversed
runes).
As appears for Dagaz (Upright):
The rune Dagaz is a beautifully positive sign. It is a symbol of
prosperity resulting from hard work, focus and dedication - a deserved success. It is also associated with
growth and security.
This rune is said to be the origin of the word "day" (just
as the rune Jera is the origin of the word "year").
As with other rune-word associations, the link is not directly from
runes to modern English but rather the closer connection is between
runes and the Scandinavian Languages and/or older versions of modern
German. In this case the Scandinavian word "dag" is said
to have evolved from the rune Dagaz, both of which are also similar
to the equivalent English word "day".
Dagaz is the rune of daylight, the bright period (full of possibilities
!) that follows the dark night. Many fears and uncertainties of the
night disappear in the bright light of day. There is a strong sense
of security and protection to go with the prosperity predicted by
this positive rune.
As with the arrival of every new day, Dagaz can indicate the possibility
of a new start. If this is the case then the indications are positive
for the new project/relationship/job etc..
