Odin, Berkana, and Teiwaz.

Odin marks the end.  Odin marks the beginning.  The blank rune was not part of the original alphabet.  Odin was not supposed to be worshiped when working with the runes.  Working with the runes, the person became "one with the gods."  In today's world, we are so removed from our spiritual Selves that Odin is needed.  Today, I received small indications of things to come and choices I should make.  One was a question of character.  Do you want to associate with people who do not display the character you feel is important?  Do you want to contribute to an idea that has stagnated?

Berkana recommends you ask through Prayer.  Prayer is not only a healing tool but also a tool to communicate with a Higher Power and your Self.  Now is the time to communicate with your Self.  Are you going in the right direction?  Are you making the right choices?  Are you in so deep that you need to ask the Higher Power for assistance?  These answers you will find through Prayer.

Teiwaz advises you to pursue your life, your relationships, your purpose with Passion.  Take care to pursue Passion healthily.  Avoid addiction.  If you become addicted to Passion or any other substance, seek help.  Passion aids us by providing conviction to a cause.  Without Passion, we complete tasks for the sake of completion.  With Passion, we focus and give it all that we can. 

Live each day with Passion guided by Prayer, in the light of the Divine.

Ansuz reversed: Loki, Messenger Rune, Signals; Guilt; Communication.  Recognize the clues within and without.  Address any guilt you have for past or present mis-steps.  Forgive yourself.  Have compassion for your self.  Communicate with your Self.  Communicate with the people in your life.  Communicate with the Divine.
