Kano, Raido, and Odin offered advice for today.
Kano is fire, a torch, that allows each of us to examine ourselves so we can shape and reshape our character. Am I changing to protect myself? The better we can see ourselves, the easier to make changes. The challenges are deciding what changes to make.
Raido is the rune of journey. Part of the journey is surrendering control. To whom do we surrender control? Do we surrender to someone else? A higher power? Our Self? I have not written Morning Pages for the last two mornings, favoring sleep instead as I am sick. Perhaps that release is my surrender and a form of surrender. I am surrendering the "stuff" that I wouldn't normally recognize. Probably a good idea to think about, especially considering my schedule for tomorrow.
Odin is a contemporary invention: The Unknown, the Divine, Odin, All-Father. When it is in relation to relationships, it looks to the mystery. The mystery of how we interact with each other, in this case, with the Self. It reminds me to live in trust, knowing good will come to me...
Isa offers advice for the night. Ice. Take time during a standstill to reflect and neutralize fears. Fear of rejection. Fear of abandonment. Fear of being heart-broken. Fears that need to be replaced with something else. Replace with what??? Perhaps tonight's sleep and work will help answer that question.
