Rune Lesson: There is always a price for wisdom, especially divine wisdom. We are inspired by Wodan’s example of the sacrifice for wisdom. He gave his eye in Mimir’s well for increased knowledge https://thevikingdragon.com/blogs/news/how-odin-sacrificed-his-eye-at-mimirs-well#:~:text=You%20must%20pluck%20out%20and,into%20the%20well%20of%20Mimir. He sacrificed himself on the World Tree for knowledge of the Runes https://norse-mythology.org/tales/odins-discovery-of-the-runes/ The price is always great, but the encouragement is priceless!
*from creation to re-creation. What was new is new again.

Frija, Great Alle-Mutter, MY Alle-Mutter; caregiver of Family, Hearth and Home, wife to Alle-Vater Wodan. Teach us to be patient but not passive; wise but not haughty in our wisdom; far-seeing yet not blind to that which is before us. May we nurture life, increase life, and live our own lives more fully. Through you we give honor to our human mothers. Through you we see all the beauty that surrounds us as well. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, FRIJA, as we honor the Frija that resides in us all! HEIL ALLE MUTTER HEIL!
