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
<> ​

Picture
Elder Rune: Ansuz: In favor of the gods, Wodan specifically, Wodanic wisdom, the Athem - Divine/vital breath, the force of creation, taking inventory of one’s Tru Spirit and spiritual balance, a higher source of inspiration, communication skills and divine ancestry, higher consciousness, mental stability, self-discipline, the loving/bright/compassionate Alle-Vater, spiritual balance.
Conversely:
Outside the favor of Alle-Vater Wodan vital/divine breath and the ancestral/Wodanic wisdom, separation from one’s true Spirit, spiritual imbalance, spiritual shunning, neurotic compulsive liar, exercise caution with communication and dealings including intelligence; a lack of inspiration, tough-love Fathering, the absent All-Father, the shadow/dark/mysterious side of Alle-Vater Wodan.

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
<> ​

Picture
Armanen Rune: Not: 
Havamal 152.
An eighth is mine, to all the Folk
Useful to know in their suffering;
Where hatred rises-up between man and man,
This I can settle fast.
 
Distress, suffering, compulsion of fate, separation, confrontation, strife settled, understanding suffering, settled calm, mind over matter, necessity of fate, misery and death, change of luck as necessity, decision of the Wurtâ, Wurt/Urlag paid-for, cause-effect relations, capability to restructure Wurt/Urlag, That which cannot be averted, the Ur-law that is active in every creature, stress, karmic debt, karmic need, but with outlook for change of karma, banishing ill fortune by means of accepting karma and karmic law, Skuld, Divine justice that balances.
“Use your fate, do not strive against it” (List, 55).
<> 
Interpretation: Wodanic wisdom (Ansuz) leads to strife settled (Not).

Outcome: 7hrs of restless, shitty, sleep

Toby and I out for a late morning, 30min walk.  A German shepherd/huskie mix followed us.  I was able to get it in the back yard and called animal control.  There has been nothing vicious about it, but my concern was it running out into traffic.
*mild/muggy, cloudy, south breeze.
*when I went out back to check on him, I didn’t see him initially, but he soon zoomed out the gate.

God/dess Meditation: Holle, magnificent German goddess, you who seem to be the perfect counterpart to Alle-Vater Wodan.  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
