Havamal 160.
A sixteenth I speak if a maid is reluctant,
To wake her lust and desire;
I change the heart of the delightful woman,
Then to me her wishes turn.
The waxing and waning moon, lunar-like mutability of the feminine essence, the error-rune, conquering resistance through confusion, eventual perfection, Female mysteries, roots of the World Column, the carrier of genetic material, God-woman, femininity, desire, sensual love, passion, perfection, Mother, chaos from which creation emerges, female principle in the Cosmos, the night, death and instinct, anger, falsehood, error and the oppositions found in humankind, mystical union, night, moon, well grounded, roots of Irminsul from which all life springs, woman as the opposite/balance to man, the descending Divine Feminine being.
“Think about the end” (List, 63).

Interpretation: Progress (Raido) leads to eventual perfection (Yr).
<>
Outcome: Essie still hates taking her medicine, but she’s taking it a bit better. Three more doses and she’s done.

Nice and cool this morning.

No porch-cat breakfast takers?

Troublesome AM work; workload most everywhere dangerously low.
Good @ work lunch; The Prose Edda
No improvement in PM work; is it time for me to move-on (Raido) to something else (Yr)? I don’t think so, not yet. I had a word with my Super. He made it sound like the move to put me as a floater was an effort to protect me. He didn’t know of any impending lay-offs, but he couldn’t rule it out, either.
*new vending company in the plant. WTF? They moved out the canned soda machine? I ask again, WTF? Sure, they have moved in several wonderful new options, but it’s going to be more difficult for me to collect any cans for home.

Two more doses to go for Essie. I think she won this round. Not that she clawed me, but she was able to turn her head at the exact time I thought I had my chance.

Leftover Great Wall for dinner.

The difference between Toby and Essie is Toby enjoys the cool. Essie enjoys the warm.

Family outside time. OMGs, Stubby’s left front leg is swollen! I’ve notice him limping, but this is the first time I’ve noticed swelling. Now I feel like shit I’m not made of money. I can barely support the fur-kids I have. I certainly don’t have it to take him to the Vet. If he doesn’t heal-up soon, I will have to start finding agencies to help.

Enough…nighty-night.

Greetings to you, Mano, glorious male aspect of the moon; silver messenger on high. You’re the measurer and teller of time. As you fly silently on your way reflect into our souls the glory of the High Ones that we might aspire to the realms of the gods. Bathe our world in soft brightness, and whisper to our souls of joyous realms beyond our knowing. Mano let us see the goodness within us and without us, all the nights and days of our lives. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, MANO, as we honor the Mano that resides in us all!
