Rune Lesson: Wealth is essential in life.  It often times defines your status.  Wealth usually never comes easy.  Some are born into it, but the largest percentage of us have to work hard for what we have.  The Noble Virtue of Industriousness and the 12 Days of Yule says this:
 
The Noble Virtue of industriousness requires that we work hard in life. Be conscientious and meticulous in whatever labor you have placed before you. Always be diligent, energetic and devoted to your working life. Never sit back and take the easy way out in regards to your ability to create a lifestyle for yourself. No matter the lifestyle you choose, know that your elevation in life, or lack of it, may (but not always) be the direct result of your depth of diligence. Do the best you can, and know that your efforts have been suitably rewarded (C.Reimer/V.Elmersson).
Havamal 59
He should get up early, the man who has few workers,
And go about his work with thought;
Much he neglects, the man who sleeps-in in the mornings,
Wealth is half won by the vigorous (The Poetic Edda, Larrington (pg. 22).
Usually, but not always, once your status is achieved, there is calm.  It’s time to sit back, and enjoy!

*H3R5

Rune Lesson:Luck is absolutely crucial in the Heathen belief system.  It’s equally important to have be the type of person that anyone can know that we are good for our word.  As a matter of fact, fidelity, as spelled out among the traits within the Nine Noble Virtues and the 12 Days of Yule, states:
6th Day of Yule – Remembering the Noble Virtue of Fidelity
As a basic ethical principle, the Noble Virtue of fidelity is the quality of being faithful or loyal. Fidelity is a characteristic that is worthy of emulation. We must remain loyal to who and what we are. Those around us need to have the ability to take us at our word, and our word needs to be our bond. A handshake is all that should be required to seal the deal in any verbal, written or implied contractual obligation between individuals. The devotion to our deeds must be of the utmost importance (C.Reimer/V.Elmersson).
Havamal 44
You know, if you’ve a friend whom you really trust
And from whom you want nothing but good,
You should mix your soul with his and exchange gifts,
Go and see him often (The Poetic Edda, Larrington pg.20).
 
With good luck, we can stand strong with the Wurtâ in knowing that our word is trustworthy and our bond.

From your home in Himilberg, your keen eyes and sharp ears guard Ensigart, the world of the gods. As you stand so alert for the approach of giants, remind us that we must also watch for our own encroaching evil. Let weakness, cowardice, lies and dishonor be barred from Ensiwëg, the Rainbow Bridge, leading to our heart’s abode. Be a model for vigilance, that we may rise to the best that is in us, and someday join the Noble Gods in their shining homes.

Rune Lesson: Movement continues to be afoot.  If there is any movement, it’s a dedication to family.  Of family, Hjuka Coulter’s book on Germanic Heathenry and Practical Guide says this:
            In a ‘broader’ scope (that is, beyond that of the house/household) family also includes: a group or persons sharing common ancestry or those who descend from one common progenitor; a tribe or race; kindred. Family also indicates and embodies one’s course of descent or genealogy that is, one’s ‘family tree’ and lineage (pg.7). 
Further, he says,
            Our sippa is the entirety of our family lines, from our youngest living kinsfolk to our eldest ancestors. It encompasses both living and dead, and is the very embodiment of our immediate beings and collective deeds as kin, and the ultimate source of true strength and peace -and the wholeness and totality of our line's Urlag… (pg.10).
THERE is my movement.  THERE is my dedication!

Elder Rune: Ansuz: In favor of the gods, Wodan specifically, the Divine Father, Wodanic wisdom, Divine communication, the Athem - Divine/vital breath, the force of creation, taking inventory of one’s Tru Spirit and spiritual balance, a higher source of inspiration, communication skills and divine ancestry, higher consciousness, mental stability, self-discipline, the loving/bright/compassionate Alle-Vater, spiritual balance.
Conversely:
Outside the favor of Alle-Vater Wodan vital/divine breath and the ancestral/Wodanic wisdom/Divine communication, separation from one’s true Spirit, spiritual imbalance, spiritual shunning, neurotic compulsive liar, exercise caution with communication and dealings including intelligence; a lack of inspiration, tough-love Fathering, the absent All-Father, the shadow/dark/mysterious side of Alle-Vater Wodan.

Havamal 154:
A ninth one I sing, when dangers at sea forces me
To protect my ship from the stormy waves;
The storm I calm down, no matter how billowing the sea,
And I cradle the waves to sleep.
 
Calm in the face of distress, comfort, hypnotic power of the forceful will, course of affairs, Rest, Ego, das Ich, Positivity, activity, personal will, self-domination, self-control, confidence, determination, extension of the Divine center, the upright human being, the awakened Self, influence, personal power, magical power, power to banish evil, unity in the Universe, duration, action in the Cosmos, activity, will, self-domination, influence, personal power, self-discipline, unity in the Universe, duration, magical powers, axis/column/Irminsul of the world, action in the Cosmos, elimination of that which is unnecessary, calm.
“Win power over yourself and you will have power over everything in the spiritual and physical worlds that strive against you” (List, 56).
H2R3
<> 
Rune Lesson: The Wodan has the tendency to be a bit dark; however, that is just one of his aspects.  Calm can come when he’s All-Father.  As All-Father, every bit of his Divine nature comes into play.  I have a picture of him as All-Father with his protective arms around children.  In essence, we are all children in his eyes.  With his protective arms around us, we can rest with calm as we have nothing to fear.

Rune Lesson: There’s been a lot of Raido/movement in my life lately.  That’s okay, because where there is movement, there is learned knowledge.  The only way to gain knowledge is to move from darkness into the light.  We must know that we can sing before the All with determination and learned knowledge!  We know that life has rhythm; movement has rhythm.  Movement will show is our fate; our Orlog.

Bank, took Toby with me so he could get a Toby snack from the drive-thru teller. As he didn’t handle the Toby snack too well last time in the front seat, I, reluctantly, put him in the back seat with it.  My concern with him being in the back seat was that he might fall thru where the back seats come up to the front seats.  He did extremely well, and found the windows on either side.  He fully enjoyed himself.

If a movie has to be “explained” and it cannot stand on its own merit, is it any good?

Rune Lesson: Going with the flow is the BEST way to be successful in life.  Rigidity never gets you anywhere. Have the ability to make changes as life changes guarantees success.  Any river, any coast line is constantly changing, going with the flow.  With that change comes the ability for nature to succeed. People need to realize they are identical to this lesson.

Toby and I out for a late morning, WONDERFLY behaved, THREE-BLOCK roundy.  OMGs, he has been SO responsive to the “scoot” and “careful” voice commands.  Today, with the “scoot” command, there were MANY times I was keeping up with HIM, as he has become SO GOOD about staying on the sidewalk, then coming back when called when he’s allowed to veer off it..  It was SO NICE to see him do that.
*sunny, warm, south breeze.
I’m also exceedingly proud of him for figuring out how to fathom the three steps off the front porch.  He approaches it, then understands he has a few steps to take before he reaches the driveway.  I am a fur dad beaming with pride!

Rune Lesson: Any harvest requires attention.  Without due diligence, there is no harvest.  However, with some good luck and hard work, any harvest can generate some serious freedom for a clan, or community.  Good food stock removes the threat of the inability to survive.  There is some serious freedom in that kind of relief.

Now is the time to go with the flow, and to be determined to see any outcome to its conclusion.  One can magically sing before the all!  Once life hits home, we MUST deal with its ramifications; good, bad or indifferent.  Life really doesn’t give us much choice.  It’s HOW we deal with life that makes the difference.  There is always the opportunity to say FUCK IT, throw up our hand and give up.  OR, we can face life’s adversity head-on, learn from the experience and grow because of it.  The intelligent person would choose the latter.  Wouldn’t you say?
