December/Iulmond 5, 2014 Frijastac 

12/5/2014

(Iulmond = Yule month)

Plans: Day off for Gary Wenke’s funeral

It’s been raining overnight.  Poor Socks is a bit wet.

Holy shit, if I wasn't sold on Google Chrome before, I most certainly am now!  The copy/paste onto my website was FLAWLESS; not like IE where I had to correct every fucking line, it seemed.

Picture
AM Meditation: Frijastac/Friday, we meditate on Frija:
Frija, Great All-Mother; caregiver of Family, Hearth and Home.  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!

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

Picture
AM Elder Rune: Eihwaz (Irreversible): Irminsul, the Cosmic pillar, stress and difficulties, overcoming obstacles, need to have backbone to get through, endurance, “Shit happens, get over it!“, temporary  cosmic consciousness, inner stability over external circumstances, the Shamanic link of experiences within the All.


Armanen Rune Summons:
Born of fire, born of ice
Life is lived at such a price
Armanen Runes in your way
Advise the Spirit man today


Picture
AM Armanen Rune: Man:  
Havamal 159.
A fourteenth know Volkrast, the dwarf, 
Sings early at the gates of dawn,
To strengthen the Aesir, to empower the Alves,
But to myself, Allfather, to gain wisdom.

Great gain, male mysteries, male leadership, pulling down the spiritual into material form, human/humanity, increase, masculinity, health, plenty, magic, spirit, truth, God-Man, male principle in Cosmos, birth, health, increase, maleness and man, Divine man, male principle in Cosmos, magic power, thaumaturgy, true self, the resurrected god, the upper part of the world tree, Irminsul, Rune of spiritual powers, of directing Manna powers; the sacred Rune of humankind encouraging us to be human. 

Interpretation: inner stability over external circumstances  (Eihwaz) leading to pulling down the spiritual into material form (Man).

Outcome: Considering today’s funeral, Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow…this is perhaps the most powerful daily reading EVER!
*I fully believe my brother and Gary have reunited!

YUMMY homemade ham, eggs and cheese burritos with hash-browns 

The funeral was the absolutely best funeral I have ever attended…seriously.  That little Baptist was packed to the hilt. It wasn’t so much the church involvement.  The Marine part was over the top!  There were marine dress blues, and Gary wore his dress blues in his casket.  At the grave site, the 21 gun salute, the live taps and the folding of the flag got to me.  It was just fucking excellent!

Since the internment was close to work, I stopped off at work, simply to show-off looking good.  It worked!  I wonder if the offer of a sales position was serious?  I also made sure to stop into the offices…hehe.

Bionic Burger for lunch; no church lunch for me.  I had enough.
Home briefly to let Toby out.

PM Meditation: Ostara, trustworthy goddess; keeper of the golden apples of youth and eternal life, keep us young inside. When we are starving for laughter, hungry for the lightness that comes with having few years on our shoulders, slip us one of those gleaming fruits that we may see the world through youthful eyes. Let springtime be in our steps, love in our hearts and a song on our lips. Change us to the core! Fill us with optimism and dreams for the future. WE GIVE YOU MOST A HEART-FELT HEIL, OSTARA, as we honor the Ostara that resides in us all!

PM Clarification Rune: none
