Today’s Draw: Hela/Death, Eihwaz and Isa (they came out of the basket together), Gerda/Page of Coins. Repeat along with me and the Vicomte de Valmont: It is beyond my control. Unlike the Vicomte, however, the situation we are in is truly beyond our control. Things Are Happening. You have no control, or even influence, on […]
Today’s Draw: Fenris/The Devil; Wan; Daeg/Knight of Wands. Starting the week with Fenris was probably not what you planned, but here you are, and here He is. All that stuff, those internal emotional and psychological and spiritual questions and issues and problems that you’ve been putting off to deal with “later”–well, today is “later”. Your […]
If you are new to working with bindrunes, I suggest you read the introductory bindrune post here, then return to this post to read about this specific bindrune. You have Something You Need To Do. Something that requires deep focus and concentration. Turn off the internet connection, turn off your phone, create this bindrune, and […]
If you are new to working with bindrunes, I suggest you read the introductory bindrune post here, then return to this post to read about this specific bindrune. You want to do a Specific Something. You make A Plan. And yet, somehow, it doesn’t quite happen, because you don’t start it. This week’s bindrune helps […]
Today’s Draw: Loki, Angrboda & Sigyn/The Lovers; Os; Fenja & Menja/ Two of Coins. As humans, we often put ourselves into difficult situations because we fall into either/or thinking. Sometimes the situation is truly either/or–you can go only do one thing at a time, so either you are at home watching television or you […]
Today’s Draw: Glut, Einmyria & Eisa/Three of Wands; Wendhorn; Ran/Queen of Cups. Today is all about the emotions and passions. Glut and her daughters dance with joy and abandon. Ran takes us to the depths of emotional experience–perhaps deep love, deep pain, or both. Wendhorn is the balance between the two cards, reminding us […]
Today’s Draw: Bolthorn/Two of Wands; Mannaz, reversed; The Nornir/Wheel of Fortune. Things happen for a reason. Sometimes that reason is Things Happen. There is no sense, there is no explanation. Things happen, and we have to deal with them. Things happen, and knock us off our feet, disconnect us from ourselves. Mannaz reversed makes it clear […]
Today’s Draw: Bergelmir/Six of Swords; Chalc, reversed; Narvi & Vali/Ten of Swords. Bergelmir returns from Tuesday’s draw. Our work is not complete; we are still solving problems and cleaning up situations not entirely of our own creation, although we may have unknowingly contributed to them. Do what you can with what you have–you have more […]
Today’s Draw: Duva/Seven of Cups; Ac; Suttung/Six of Coins. Choices, choices, choices! At the back of your mind are all the practical considerations, but the conscious part of your brain is distracted by all the shiny objects. So many possibilities! So much potential! Why choose? DO ALL THE THINGS! Whoa, there, Nelly. Yes, you can […]
