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

AM Elder Rune: Eihwaz: Irminsul, the Cosmic pillar, stress and difficulties, overcoming obstacles, need to have backbone to get through, inner strength, 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

Havamal 151.
A seventh I learned, if the hall is burning
With fire around bench and comrades;
However bright it burns, I will banish the blaze,
As soon I sing the magic chant.

*well, we'll see.
Outcome: rough night.
Good AM work; attitudes have softened.
*Eihwaz and Hagal, right here!
*at break, I was paged to the office. I thought, here it comes, my termination, but such was not the case. One of the secretaries is involved with some food organization as a volunteer. Evidently she placed my name as a veteran in a drawing. I WON FIRST PRIZE of a $35 Thanksgiving food feast! OMGs, I started to cry. May the gods and ancestors show favor upon this woman.
*good @ work lunch, started reading Odhroerir: Nine Devotional Tales of Odin's Journeys http://www.lulu.com/shop/laure-lynch/odhroerir-nine-devotional-tales-of-odins-journeys/ebook/product-17485459.html , impressive.
*good PM work, workload well enough to justify 8 hrs tomorrow; 5 hrs made up + 3 hrs overtime.
*all-hands meeting until 5PM.
Essie outside until just past sunset.

Sleepy Hollow
Shower, bed, nighty-night
Donar, Son of Wotan and Erda, husband to Sibba, wielder of Malant and Great God of thunder, thunder forth in our lives. When we would hold back, encourage us to advance. When we would be weak, hearten us be strong. When we would shun life’s pleasures, inspire our appetites for that which is lusty and good. Excite our growth from strength to strength; teach us, elder brother, how to throw our own Hammer, and slay the giants who oppose our will. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, DONAR, as we honor the Donar that resides in us all!
