Elder Rune Summons:
Born of fire, born of ice
Life is lived at such a price

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
<> ​

​Armanen Rune: Man: 
Havamal 159.
A fourteenth know I Volkrast, the dwarf,
Sings early at the gates of dawn,
To strengthen the Aesir, to empower the Alves,
But to myself, All-Father, to gain wisdom.
 
Strength, wisdom, empowerment, propagation of the human race, encompasses both the exoteric and the esoteric concepts of humanity, great gain, acquisition of wisdom, strength, 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.
“Be a man” (List, 61).
<> 
Interpretation: Order (Othilla) leads to strength (Man).
*EXCELLENT Runes for Election Day
<> 
Outcome: mornings are so much more enjoyable to NOT wake-up to an alar/radio clock.

1st breakfast; banana and whole-grain cereal

Toby and I out for a 30min, very well-behaved walk.
*WOW!  My usual polling place was ÜBER busy.  I’m glad I voted early.
<> 
I did a bit of online research on the cottage cheese/bologna rolls mom made for us when we were kids; but that I never remember eating.  I found out it MAY be a depression era thing http://4chandata.org/ck/If-you-have-cottage-cheese-and-bologna-in-your-house-right-now-please-try-this-quick-depression-era-snacklay-down-a-piece-of-bolog-a524886 , which would make sense.  Mom would take a scoop of cottage cheese, place it in the middle of a slice of bologna, roll it up, place a toothpick in it to hold it together, and baked it.  I think I want to experiment with a variety of this; that being, sauerkraut and bologna rolled, then baked.
*well hel, that didn’t suck!

God/dess Meditation: Holle, you who seem to be the perfect counterpart to Alle-Vater Wotan.  Just like Alle-Vater, you come to us with many names.  Just like Alle-Vater, you appear to us with many faces.  You have become known to us through place-names, fairy-tales, sagas, legends, poetry, customs, traditions, mythology, and yes, even food.  You are the young maiden.  You are the Old Crone.  You are everything in between.  You reward the diligent worker.  You punish the slothful.  Your Spirit permeates humankind.  We recognize you as a German Goddess!  Alle Mutter Holle, Goddess holy and wise, We give you a most HEART-FELT HEIL, as we honor the Holle that resides in us all. 
*C. Reimer/V. Elmersson
