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.

Truth is elusive. It’s as relative as the individual. What one person or group accepts as Truth, another does not. There is no universal truth. There is no one-way or right way of seeing anything. What we accept as truth is merely that; our truth. No one person or group has the ability to dictate their truth onto anyone unless we allow it. The most important truth, is that we remain true to ourselves. Search for your own truth.

Neighbor lady, one I rarely see, or with who I rarely interact, came to the door with two loaves of bread. Honestly, at first I didn’t know who she was, but as she clarified, OH, NOW I KNOW WHO YOU ARE! I hope she wasn’t offended. I think she and her husband are odd ducks.

*Queen Aslaug is dead, shot in the back by a cowardly arrow delivered by, surprisingly enough, Lagertha, who re-ascended to the throne of Kattegat.
*Ragnar is in the hands of King Ecbert of Wessex, who will no doubt be turned over to King Ælla of Northumbria for execution.

It seems my Mannaz/Ar came in the form of antisocial behavior and challenges.

Frija, Great Alle-Mutter; caregiver of Family, Hearth and Home, wife to Alle-Vater Wotan. 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!
