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.

Havamal 151:
A sixth one is mine, if a man wounds me
With the root of a trunk still with juice;
Then I am unscathed, the man himself is consumed
By the evil with which he threatened me.
Imperviousness, a reversal of fortune, the world tree, preservation of tribe or race, ancestors/ancestry, loyalty, that which is existing, defense, the polarity of the male/female principle in the Universe, opposing energies, earthly love, as executive power of balancing justice, art, capability, artist, genius, being favored, procreation, the child, force, that which is established, World Tree/the Irminsul/the All, power, generation, ability and artfulness, sensuality, higher consciousness, return.
“Your blood, your highest possession” (List, 53).
*H1R6; Halbdutzend 1, root 6, Irminsul’s root of creation

Rune Lesson: Of gifting, the Havamal says:
41. With gifts, friendships should be strengthened,
Such as with weapons or fine clothing:
Those who exchange gifts will always be friends,
So long as they give and take in turn.
42. A man should always remain loyal to his friends,
Giving a gift for a gift, sharing in their laughter,
But repaying lies for lies.
Gifts given with the proper intent, really DOES create imperviousness, and preserves the tribe!

Chat with Chewy.com. I ordered the wrong size of Revolution https://www.revolutionplus.com/ . They chatted with their pharmacist who chatted with my veterinary and approved Revolution for the heavier cat.

Alle-Vater Gott! Wandering god! Rune god! Wolf god! Raven god! Wodan!! Husband to Frija, the Alle-Mutter. Son to Paru and Bezzia, brother to Willo and Wîh; We call out to you, not as slaves or on bended knee, but on our feet and open-armed as befits your offspring. Watch us as we struggle, but the fight and fame must both be ours! Grant us that victory which we win by OUR might and mane! After a life battle-worn, Wodan, grant us access to our Great Ancestral Hall, where we may feast, drink the glorious mead and be merry with our heroes and our Altmâgâ. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, Wodan, as we honor the Wodan that resides in us all!
