Sowelu, Teiwaz, and Sowelu provided guidance for today.
Sowelu brings the Sun's energy. It promotes wholeness. I spent part of the afternoon with some horses. I wanted to capture some photographs of them and make their acquaintances in the process. We use them for riding and packing in the summer months. They were out of water and I went into the corral to run water into the tub for them. What a hoot! The fight was on to get at the water first. The pecking order was interesting to observe. The paint decided he could get water directly from the hydrant so needless to say a few of us got wet. At times, each of us need to interact with other creatures than fellow humans. We are herd animals and to interact with other herds is relaxing.
Teiwaz is a strong rune. Your strength always comes from inside, the external influences can reinforce it or diminish it, depending on how you allow those forces to interact with you. Today, I entered into a confined space with other animals whom I had not met or interacted with prior to this. No animal is predictable; adding the stress they were expressing, one enters into a potentially dangerous setting. Remembering to be quiet and non-threatening and animal behavior, I was able to safely leave the setting as well. Trust me, few things hurt as much as being kicked by a 1000 lb. animal. Been there, done that; no need to repeat that experience!
The sun's healing power embodies Sowelu. Scratching on animals and interacting with other humans can have a healing impact on you. We are naturally herd animals and it is comforting to be in a herd but not of the herd. Of course, the best key to that is to blend into the scenery and not be a threat.
Nauthiz provides the focus for tonight's en devours. Need. What do I need? Do I need to relax and focus elsewhere? Do I need to focus upon myself and my environment, especially in preparation for next week? My need will come to me. Then, I can take steps to meet that need. Look within, meditate, and identify.
