Hi there,
since a few days my system wont shut down properly: The screen turns dark but the power LED is still on, even after 15 minutes of waiting.
I have to do a forced shutdown via long pressing the power button.
(I know there is the Magic SysRQ but I haven´t figured that one out, FN key weirdness I think)
Here is my journal, can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks!

I don’t see anything obvious in the log it just ends. I am not sure if that is because it is stuck, or because the subvolume holding the log is unmounted at that point so it has reached it’s natural end.
Can we see inxi -Fxxxz?
Hi dalto,
thanks for your reply here is my inxi:

If it just started happening recently, try updating your system and see if that resolves it.
If not, try installing the LTS kernel sudo pacman -S linux-lts linux-lts-headers and see if booting off that makes any difference.
It may just be a coincidence 
. Can you tell if you had done a system update before trying to shutdown? After some (rare cases) critical system packages upgrades, it has been noticed such a behavior. But not too often, or shortly repeated… 
OTOH, how do you shut down your system?
In the log, it seems you had run sudo shutdown -h now. There are alternatives.
Have you tried other ways and the same thing happens?
Do you always use sudo ?
Try:
systemctl poweroff
Try from LightDM, after logging out your user session.
Try from XFCE (or other DE) standard shutdown menu options.
As @dalto noted, the logs seem to not have reached the usual end of a system shutdown.
Do you have network, or USB drives connected?
What I did notice after trying all this: Rebooting works!
After this the journal looks like this, it seems there is one more entry: stopping and deactivating the swap:
