I honor you this day, and I honor every bit of you that resides in me.  I’m grateful for the strong German heritage you’ve provided. I look forward with eager anticipation to the great family reunion on the other side.  I offer you my undying love, honor, respect, and gratitude.

Elder Rune Summons:
Born of fire, born of ice
Life is lived at such a price
Elder Runes in your way

Elder Rune: Elder Rune: Algiz: Protection/shielding, Heimo (the genetic connection between gods and the Folk), guardian of Ensiwëg, the Rainbow Bridge, expansion of archetypal consciousness, acute awareness, divine realizations, an awakening, drawing on the natural Will, invocation/supplication to the gods, preparedness, sanctuary, embracing the Divine plan, a safe harbor, connection with current events, the Elk, or swan.
Conversely:
Outside the favor of Heimo, failure to integrate humanity with the Divine, without divine protection, possible dangers lurking, lack of preparedness, spiritual blindness, inability to embrace fear, failure to face the ultimate good in all things, tested by the natural Will/Universal voice, without the need for protection, the inability to see/understand/connect with what’s coming, an aspect of death, helplessness.

Armanen Rune: Sig: 
Havamal 156:
This I know as an eleventh, when

I accompany my dear friend into combat;
I sing it into the shield, so that he triumphs in battle
And that luck and happiness surrounds him always.
 
Triumph, surrounded with luck and happiness, victory, success, gain, well-being, victorious and happy, into the fray, blessing from above, successful fight, achieved goal, school, and salvation by light, inspiration, soul, and power of the sun, inspiration, soul, life force, wholeness, reliable success, healing, good luck, spiritual completion, and the path of the soul, Rune of the spiritual ray of inspiration, wisdom, and illumination.
“The creative spirit must conquer” (List, 57).
*H2R5; Halbdutzend 2, root 5, Irminsul’s root of destruction

Rune Lesson:  If you’ve never read “The Lay of Rig” https://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/poe/poe14.htm you need to do it.  This is not my favorite translation, but it will do.  Some see it was the development of social classes.  Carolyn Larrington present this story as visits over time.  Whatever the case, this speaks of the gods’ genetic connection to mankind.  Knowing that the gods; and hence ancestors, reside in us, that in itself should bring the notion of ultimate victory and happiness to any Heathen’s heart!  No need for a sacrifice.  No need for a savior.   Heimo’s, An: Heimdall’s, connection is all we need.

Leftover Kroger Meatloaf https://www.kroger.com/p/kroger-green-chile-pepper-jack-cheese-ready-to-cook-in-tray-meatloaf/0001111003488 with a handful of raw sugar snap peas and a baked potato.
*the meatloaf was in the oven warming for a couple of hours because in the initial nuking, the center never seems to done enough for my tastes.  It’s much better now.

LOTS of online goofing off.

Call into my mortgage company one more time.  It seems that notation was made to my account but no ticket created to correct the escrow payment shortage problem.  Supposedly a correction ticket was now made.  I told them I am going to call daily until I’m comfortable that the problem has been corrected.

Jee, imagine that, a disagreement, and to neutral corners we go.

God/dess Meditation: Tuesday/Ziu’s Day/Ziu/An: Tyr
Ziu, god of selflessness; of war & glory, one-handed god, sacrificial god, Sergeant at Arms at the Thing, enforcer of law & order, bravest of all gods; you chained the Fenris Wolf that threatened the worlds. We can’t do that, but we can do other things, some ordinary, others heroic. Remind us of your bravery and your sacrifice. Give us the courage and strength we need to fetter out own Fenris. Keep us mindful of our duties and help us keep our fears bound as tightly as you bound old Slaver Mouth. Thus doing, may we share in your glory by imitating you.  WE GIVE YOU MOST A HEART-FELT HAIL, ZIU, as we honor the Ziu that resides in us all!
