Isa, Hagalaz, and Inguz gave advice for today. Interesting, the runes indicated the day was not going to be all that nice. Yet, it was an enjoyable day. BUSY!!
Isa is solid water. Water so slow, it is almost at a stand still. Today was a day to put my stuff aside and complete other tasks. Two meetings, e-mails, and addressing concerns brought to the table by others. On a day like this, there isn't room for me or my tasks. I'm learning when you are the boss, these days occur more often than they don't. Its good to know.
Hagalaz is an elemental disruption. What emotion do you associate with a complete disruption? Anger. I did not have time to get angry today. However, I dealt with the anger of others. I was surprised one of my co-workers gave me such respect and trust today. This person had an issue with another person and felt free to come into my office to share the experience and apologize to me for a potentially tough situation. I have never observed this to happen between co-workers when one is acting supervisor before. Amazing!
Inguz is the god Ing. Ing addresses fertility. In order for something or someone to be fertile, a death and a rebirth must occur. Renewal is part of that cycle. Today's activities provided the renewal to me to remind me I can do what I set out to do. I can be the boss, if I choose.
Teiwaz is the task for tonight. Reversed, a warrior is advised to look to ones health. To remember to not stress over others opinions and emotions when you supervise them is important. Release the things you can't take personally. Address the ones you need to address. Courage to lead a difficult meeting. Have passion for your job and for your life.
