8 May 2011

Ansuz reversed, Gebo, and Othila guided my day.

Ansuz reversed advises to consider the use of adversity.  Cleaning the old is a good place to start.  I took time for me.  Restoration can come in many forms from finding comfort in a nap or in comforts from home.

Gebo brings gifts and one of those gifts is trust.  I trusted in myself.  I strayed outside of instructions and was rewarded in my efforts.

Othila addresses the home and family.  Today is Mother's Day and it is a family day.  My family lives far from me and on days like this, the distance can be bittersweet.  For me, cooking is an expression of my love for friends, family, and lovers.  When it is just me, it can be a challenge.  Today, they would have been proud and I would have been proud to serve them: eggs benedict with asparagus; clam chowder with carrots and potatoes; and a cheese souffle with asparagus.  As compared to most things I cook, quite rich.

Algiz reversed is the guide for tonight.  Protection, boundaries, and mutual trust.  Focus upon the health and boundaries erected or destroyed.  Trust in my higher Self, Higher Power, and Angels.

What a day!  It was long and exhausting (but in a good way).

I've been working on my chakras and have discovered as I am more in tune with them, interesting things happen with my rune work.

Kano, Hagalaz, Isa, Thurisa, and Algiz all guided my day.

Kano and Hagalaz advised me for things I needed to know for the day.  Such as my typical approach to house cleaning is not appropriate in all situations.  Simple menu planning is always the best and with such good results, how can one go wrong?

Isa and Thurisa advised my health.  Address your fears and gain wisdom in the process.  Up early, slow and steady, no panic needed! 

Algiz brought abundance into my day in the form of new friends through a kitchen party.  A dry kitchen party which is one of the darnedst things!  It was lots of fun!!

That was my day, yesterday.  Too long and all that to even draw a rune for the night or to meditate before going to bed.  I discovered the difference and wished I had at least meditated.  Lesson learned!
