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
<> ​

Elder Rune: Ansuz: In favor of the gods, Wodan specifically, the Divine Father, Wodanic wisdom, the Athem - Divine/vital breath, the force of creation, taking inventory of one’s Tru Spirit and spiritual balance, a higher source of inspiration, communication skills and divine ancestry, higher consciousness, mental stability, self-discipline, the loving/bright/compassionate Alle-Vater, spiritual balance.
Conversely:
Outside the favor of Alle-Vater Wodan vital/divine breath and the ancestral/Wodanic wisdom, separation from one’s true Spirit, spiritual imbalance, spiritual shunning, neurotic compulsive liar, exercise caution with communication and dealings including intelligence; a lack of inspiration, tough-love Fathering, the absent All-Father, the shadow/dark/mysterious side of Alle-Vater Wodan.

Armanen Rune: Eh: 
Havamal 162:
A seventeenth I know, through a wise law
To join two lives in love;
And everyone is willing, no virginal woman
Will leave me lightly after this.
 
Warns against frivolous, transient love affairs, the legal bond between man and woman, lasting love, two bound together by the primal law of life, unification, sanctity of marriage, the cross of wedlock, fulfillment, maintaining strict morals within the bonds of legal marriage, love, duality, bound by primal law, love, trust and marriage. Soul-mates, wedding, partnership, permanent bond, binding decision, hope, duration, horse, permanence and marriage as a law, unity of ego and you, sister souls, soul-love, God-Man-Woman, ideal love, twin souls, two made one, success, increase.
“Marriage is the raw-root of the Aryans” (List, 63).
*H3R5
<> 
Interpretation: Divine wisdom (Ansuz) brings marriage (Eh).
*oh yes!  Marrying my wife was THE SMARTEST thing I’ve ever done.
<> 
1st check on all fur-kids
<> 
Outcome: 8 1/2hrs of sleep with only one wake-up.
<> 
Good morning chat with my love my wife
<> 
Breakfast sandwich on wheat toast
<> 
Toby and I out for a well-behaved, late/mid-morning, 30min walk.
*warm, partly cloudy, no breeze.
<> 
Dentist visit with extremely well; save the fact she said I still have to floss.  WTF? I guess my waterpik doesn’t replace flossing.
<> 
Leftover spaghetti with a garden salad added.
<> 
Now this is going to be different.  I haven’t worked a full week since the beginning of the month.  July 4th (Wed) was off.  Then I took Thurs and Fri off anticipating my wife moving in, which didn’t happen until Sat.  On Fri though, my regular eye appointment demanded a quick laser treatment.  I then had to take the following Mon off (9th) for the treatment with Tues and Wed off (10th and 11th) to heal.  Sister passed away Mon (16th) so I had bereavement leave Wed-Fri (18th-20th).  I think I’m ready for a full week of work.
*…BUT, anniversary date @ work is Aug 12th (full vacation time restored and sick-leave starts to re-build).  Labor Day Weekend is the first weekend in Sept (1-3).  I’m good.
<> 
Not a horrible return to work, but I will NEVER understand the privileged few.
*chat with wife over dinner.  One of her “heart-kids” in Portland met his demise…sad.
<> 
Last check on all fur-kids.

01:30 nighty-night; I get to sleep with my wife!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

God/dess Meditation: Nirdu, brother-husband, to Nirda, parents of the Wanâ; Ing-Frô and the Frouwa, beloved god of harbors and seas close to land; help us to remember the cargoes of wealth that float to our doors daily from the wonderful Universe in which we live. Though our misfortunes may rise and fall like the tides, the chance of prosperity, like the eternal sea brimming with fish, is still there. Like the salt-sea spray, awaken us to the possibilities that surround us, so that our nets may be cast wide and return full of life’s gifts. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, NIRDU, as we honor the Nirdu that resides in us all!
