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.

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: Gebo: The mystical union of gift and giver, repay gift for gift, generosity, a fair exchange between people or gods and the Luck that accompanies it; freely exchanged, obligations, contracts, relationships, sometimes sexual, sacrifice, and hospitality, do not take more than we are willing to give, the voluntary sacrifice of resources.
*A1R7; Aett 1, root 7, Yggdrasil’s root of creation

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: Gibor: 
Havamal 163:
An eighteenth I learned, yet I would never
Let a woman or maid know it,
For everyone knows what’s best for himself-
This leads me to the conclusion of the songs-
The one it shall be then, that lies in my arms
As betrothed wife and as sister.
 
The scald, awakening, passion, mystery, secrets kept, the end, comprehension of the driving from below upward; from humanity outward, secrecy, gift/giver, gift of life, that which is best for the individual, fulfillment, sacred marriage, being ONE with the sister soul, protection against evil forces, being/seeing the Divine, the cosmic consciousness and the divine principle, two forces having a singular origin, the spiritual ego, death-life cycle, protection against evil forces, union of the gods and the World, the uninterrupted chain in the cycle of eternal returns, the Creator and the Created, the deepest mysteries of the Universe, the end.
“Man, be one with God” (List, 67).
*H3R6; Halbdutzend 3, root 6, Irminsul’s root of re-creation
<> 
Rune Lesson:  Essentially the same Rune but different system and placement.
The Havamal is clear on the benefits of gifting:
14.  If you have a friend you feel is loyal,
And wish to win and keep his trust,
Open your heart to him, and be generous with gifts,
And seek his companionship often
Conversely
15. If there is a man you deal with, but do not trust,
Yet seek to win his favor for your gain-
Be friendly to him in your manner,
       Though false in heart, and repay him his lies with lies.
15.  And heed this too: if you deal with someone you mistrust,
16.  And know how falsely he speaks,
Play his game, and laugh along with him:
Use his treachery to your own advantage (Coulter translation).
Through gifts our true relationships are sealed or revealed in one way or another.

Tomorrow is layoff day.  Tomorrow is also Shoes for Crews day.  Today, I was cleared by my manager to go order a new pair of work boots tomorrow.  Tomorrow, I will turn in my tool-bag, keep my badge and go over to IPB-1 to order my shoes.  If today wasn’t enough of a fuck-off day, tomorrow certainly will be.

It’s always so nice to have Socks come off the porch to greet me as I pull into the driveway.

God/dess Meditation: Tuesday/Ziu’s Day/Ziu/An: Tyr
Ziu, god of selflessness; of war & glory, one-handed god, sacrificial god, Sergeant at Arms at the Thing, enforcer of law & order, bravest of all gods; you chained the Fenris Wolf that threatened the worlds. We can’t do that, but we can do other things, some ordinary, others heroic. Remind us of your bravery and your sacrifice. Give us the courage and strength we need to fetter out own Fenris. Keep us mindful of our duties and help us keep our fears bound as tightly as you bound old Slaver Mouth. Thus doing, may we share in your glory by imitating you.  WE GIVE YOU MOST A HEART-FELT HAIL, ZIU, as we honor the Ziu that resides in us all!
