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.

Armanen Rune: Eh: 
Havamal 161.
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 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).

*drilled two .250 tooling holes
*located per tooling holes, laid-out rough scribe, drilled 46 #30 pilot holes
*band-sawed per rough scribe
*pin routed net periphery
**easy and busy

God/dess Meditation: Ostara, trustworthy goddess; wife to Brego; the adherent god of scalds, keeper of the golden apples of youth and eternal life, keep us young inside. When we are starving for laughter, hungry for the lightness that comes with having few years on our shoulders, slip us one of those gleaming fruits that we may see the world through youthful eyes. Let springtime be in our steps, love in our hearts and a song on our lips. Change us to the core! Fill us with optimism and dreams for the future. WE GIVE YOU MOST A HEART-FELT HEIL, OSTARA, as we honor the Ostara that resides in us all!
