14 June 2011

Teiwaz, Ehwaz, and Mannaz were the runes for today.

Teiwaz reminds me courage is appropriate at all times, especially when faced with a new challenge.  Today's task was to participate in a meeting which required me to welcome as a company leader.  I have the skills and abilities.  My task strengthened my belief in my position and abilities.  Being in a position on a temporary basis is quite a challenge: you are doing your own duties and adding additional leadership duties on to them.  If you are wondering if you can do something, small doses such as this are a good way to try the position on for size. 

Ehwaz advocates forgiveness.  Choose your battles.  Forgive yourself for not taking a position you could have as opposed to choosing a better time and place to take the position needed.  You can still take a stand, just not always the way you wish to.

Mannaz is loving kindness.  There are days when out of the blue, your person receives an unexpected yet perfect gift.  People may think this is odd.  I was doing laundry and was given six books that are related to an area which I have great interest in.  One of these books is a beautiful antique.  Based upon the specific subjects of the books, I am left to believe this was not a fluke; the gift came from something else: spirit guides or a connection with someone else.

Ansuz is the task for tonight.  A day full of messages: I can be a leader; I can choose my battles; and I am blessed by a Higher Power.  I wonder if more messages will be given tonight?
