11 Feb 2011

Ehwaz, Eihwaz, and Nauthiz provided guidance for today.

Ehwaz addresses the relationship between rider and horse, self and Self, person and partner, etc.  Movement may be indicated.  I have been making progress with my chakra work.  I was able to succeed at another task associated with activating them.  I also activated them while driving home, without closing my eyes and going into a meditative state.   I pondered using them from a distance.  I haven't progressed far enough to try that.  I am curious if it would work, though. 

Eihwaz reminds us to protect ourselves from internal and external influences.  Developing abilities and remembering to ground ourselves and dispose of excess energy are important endeavors to pursue.  Combating the inner critic can be harder than guarding against external influences.  Gather strength, dissolve excess energy and deflect negative influences.

Nauthiz is the rune of need and addressing limitations.  I was notified plans have changed for a week from now.  An anticipated death is never pleasant, it can be painful to watch someone waste away, literally.  I need to address two tickets to an event I will not be able to attend and switch gears for plans for that weekend.  Not everything falls together like we think or want things to do.  At times, we need to be flexible and realize some things are not to be.  On to planning an alternate!

Eihwaz offers its advice for tonight.  Protect self, respect self and the process.  Respect the process I have been pursuing and refrain from rushing things.  Respect the work I need to put into the process to be able to use my gifts.  Respect provides a form of protection.
