Teiwaz, today. The spiritual warrior. It's been a while since I've drawn this one, but I can't think of a day that I've needed it more. Success and motivation, victory, courage, and honor. More than anything, though, right now it just helps to be reminded from outside that I am a warrior, and even if I lose a battle, the fact remains that I ( Read more... )

Raidho - travel, usually with a positive association. Not exactly what I was expecting to see after my recent incident, but definitely a pleasant surprise. Also can indicate a spiritual journey, or a message, or symbolize leadership and nobility. One book suggests that it's major meaning is learning one's limitations, and learning to move within ( Read more... )

Jera, again. I keep getting a lot of duplicates - I don't know whether I'm just failing to learn, or whether the main issues in my life haven't resolved yet. So, let's see.... hope, change for the better. What else? Successful crops, Thor, new beginnings. And, again, justice and legalities. Please, please, please let this mean things will ( Read more... )

Jera, today - justice, in a positive, kind of karmic sense. It also has a meaning of rewards for working hard, and usually suggests a good outcome. Other books have completely different meanings listed - hope, change, the cycle of the year. Either way, though, it seems to be positive. Who knows, maybe I'll get some good news about the license ( Read more... )

Teiwaz, again. Someone keeps telling me to be strong, and to push forward until I succeed. Either that, or they feel that I'm just not learning. Although, given the stamina I need at work right now, it may just be a simple reminder that, if I look inside myself, I do have the strength to make it through.

Uruz, today - strength is the first meaning I associate with this, and persistence. The books describe it as a primal kind of natural energy, of health and healing and change as personal growth. This seems like an awfully forceful way to tell me that I'm going to survive having to go out in the cold to go to work this morning.... I should keep an ( Read more... )

Well. That was a spectacular.... not quite failure, I suppose, but a definite lack-of-success. Time to give it another try, and hope that I can stick with it longer this time. So, let's see what today has in store ( Read more... )

Sowelu again, today. I'm getting a lot of repeat messages... I don't know if this is because issues are persisting, or whether I'm just being dim and not getting things. So... meanings. Power, health, vitality; worry and tension being too much. The sun, female power, a sense of self-worth. Maybe it's something as simple as learning to embrace ( Read more... )

Sowelu, today. I can't believe the broad spectrum of meanings I'm finding for this. The most primary, though, seems to be victory or success. I'm hoping beyond hope that this will refer to a particularly heartbreaking and difficult case at work... I'd love more than anything to find the key to fixing her. There's also a secondary cautionary ( Read more... )

And the rune for today is... kenaz. I knew it was bound to happen eventually. Not that I mind at all - this is one of the most positive runes I can think of. It's a fire symbol, and it represents learning, and power, and creativity. It's also a sign of opening up, and of sharing. Everything has been going pretty darn well for me lately, at ( Read more... )
