(Hornung/Hermanod = Hoar Month)(E.R.E. = Eternal Roman Empire [rather than BC, AD, BCE or CE])

Plans:  study

A.M. Prayer:  Sunday, we pray both to Sonne/Sunna, lighting a yellow candle (symbolic of the Sun):
Greetings to you Sonne, Lamp of Wodan/Odin: newly risen! Hail to you who has shown on all our ancestors, who shines on us, and who will shine on our decedents yet unborn. Share with us some of your light, your energy, your power, so that we might better fight our battles and attain our goals. SONNE/SUNNA HAIL!!

Rune Summons:
Born of Fire, born of ice,
Life is lived at such a price.
Holy Runes send my way
Advice on how to spend the day

A.M. Rune:  Two Runes:

Picture
Gebo (irreversible): OHG: Geba, The gift and giver, repay gift for gift, an exchange between people or gods and the Luck that accompanies it; freely exchanged, contracts, relationships, sometimes sexual, sacrifice, and hospitality.

And

Picture
Raido (U):  OHG: Reita, Wheel, riding, ordered/rhythmic movement, a journey, the law of the cosmic right, freedom and moral responsibility of the Self, ordered change, the proper course of faring, progress

Outcome:  We do indeed sacrifice ourselves for this relationship and it’s good to know we’re on the right track!

Audie continues a second day with her need for constant verbiage.  I am doing my dead-level best to keep a positive attitude about this; I just wish my every-day Audie would show up soon.

Tweaked the RHK website: this time tweaked the prayers page.

Okay, so now I have a new concern; Audie’s balance.  She was just STANDING there by the library…just STANDING mind you, and she fell flat on her ass and her head went into the library: FUCK!

GODDAMNIT!  Not another daytime episode…

I am honestly about to my wit’s end…

I’m going to issue her an ultimatum either tonight or first thing tomorrow; hopefully things will be all right.

P.M. Prayer:  All you gods and goddesses bless and keep your Holy Folk. From the cold shadows of the glaciers to the colder shadows of space, always, we have been your people. Guide and guard your North folk as you did in ages past. Wodan/Odin, give wisdom and craft to wits shaped by ice and fire that our foes be foxed. Donar/Thor, give us strength and the will to use it. Ing Fro/Freyr and Uualburga Frouwa/Freyja, give full wombs so that bodies will be found for the souls of heroes. Let your Northern Folk grow in number and in power, so that our kind may live, love, survive and thrive, not just today, not for a millennium, but for ever and ever!

P.M. Rune:  none

Plans:  not even going to venture a guess…

A.M. Prayer:  Saturday, normally attributed to the fertility goddess, Saeter, we pray to Sibba/Sif, lighting a green candle (for fertility):
Sibba/Sif let us see you in all the growing things that sustain our lives. Help us look beyond the packaging and promotion, to the richness of the Earth from which all bounty comes. When ordinary eyes see only corn, let me see your golden hair hid in its silk. When others see only bread, let me see the grain, beyond that, your smile and laughter. Feed our might and main, Holy Sibba/Sif, that we may do our work in the world. HAIL SIBBA/SIF!!

Rune Summons:
Born of Fire, born of ice,

Picture
A.M. Rune:  Uruz (R):  OHG: Ur, A weakened position, an impulse towards inaction, a severe lack of foundation and energy at low levels, reduction, elasticity, taking no risks at this time, illness: Offset this with extra precautions.

Outcome:  OMGs yes: there are some very noticeable residual effects from last night!

Meeka for a walk to keep her strong, healthy and obedient!  

I am most definitely on edge and Audie is rambling crazy things.

ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Grocery shopped

Wendy’s http://wendys.com/ for a frosty and fries!

JsMrFnChst!  She carried on with her nuts-o-conversation-babble all day and it certainly didn’t take much to push me over the edge for one reason or another.

No homework done on a day like today: DAMN IT!

Let’s hope tomorrow is a bit more stable!

P.M. Prayer:  Era/Eir:
Era/Eir, whose loving hands and sweet breath brings healing and health, PRAISE YOUR NAME AMONGST NORTH-FOLK! We thank you for your gentle caress, your soft ministrations and your care. When stress, strains, aches and pains plague is, you come with your lithe figure and flowing hair to ease our distress. Eir, goddess holy and wise, we honor you. HAIL ERA/EIR!!

Plans:  Audie, study…

A.M. Prayer:  Friday, we pray to the glorious siblings, Uualburga Frouwa/Freyja and Ing Fro/Freyr, and lighting a gold candle (for Freyja’s tears and Freyr’s golden boar, Gullinbursti).
Uualburga Frouwa/Freyja, who could not love you? Women admire you for your own inner glory and highest attainment as the self-made woman, men for your beauty, passion and strength. Praise to you for the gift of life, and for the love that makes life worth living. Remind us always that it is the strong who love the best and the most, and that only the mighty can truly be gentle. Fill our lives with passion and lust that we may live our lives to the fullest. HAIL UUALBURGA FROUWA/FREYJA!!

Ing Fro/Freyr, you are the god of “Ar”, the good harvest and prosperity: you are indeed the lusty enlarger of life. When the day to day wears us down, remind us of pleasures and joys. Help us recall the wonderful excesses that brought our lives into being and which sustain the human spirit during good times and bad. Without you, there would be no life and certainly little delight. Thank you, Ing Fro/Freyr, for the rushing life spirit and the eternal play of passions that make our lives fruitful. ING FRO/FREYR, HAIL!!

Rune Summons:
Born of Fire, born of ice,

Advice on how to spend the day

Picture
A.M. Rune:  Jera (irreversible): OHG: Jậr Harvest, the Rune of return, two halves of a cyclic whole, harmony-in-movement-in-balance, improvement, the number 12, cycles, the result of a previous action, reward for the right (or wrong) action.

Outcome:  With a relationship, prep for a Physiology test Monday, a lab report for Tuesday and an Anatomy test on Wednesday, there is PLENTY to harvest!

Meeka for a smell-fest at Meeka Park plus an extra 6 blocks for my cardio-workout: GOTTA have a good harvest for that one!

Audie in a good mood this morning: can you say harvest?

I had to take the bull by the horns at the lab group meeting on campus this morning and organize the lab report.

Audie’s final divorce decree showed up today!

McDs for lunch

Got home in time for the contractor salesmen.  That is step one.  Plus, I may have had an opportunity laid in my lap: we’ll see.

Off to Heritage to make a payment: so many people wanted to talk!

Audie made it thru most of the day; that is until just now.  She almost choked me as she started to buckle so she went to bed.  I looked in on her just now and it seemed like she was having some kind of episode.  I made sure to startle her out of it and hopefully she’s sleeping now.  I don’t have any idea what happened.  She has been doing so well all day; now this.

OMGs, no…she’s having a sleep episode in the late afternoon…NOOOOOOooooooo!  I had better keep myself together in case I need to take her somewhere.  She has gone from a really good mood to this: FUCK!

After the second fall in the bedroom I took her to the emergency room where we spent almost 8 hours and a $100.  Brain cans and blood work were done.  I think they were as dumbfounded by the whole thing, too.  ABSOLUTELY NO ONE has any answers for this shit!

What did I do to deserve this harvest?  Or was it Audie’s harvest?  Hmmm… after all, harvest IS for good or ill; depending upon the effort. 

P.M. Prayer:  Heimdall:
HEAR ME HEIMO/HEIMDALL, the genetic link between gods and humankind.  Your keen eyes and sharp ears guard the world of the gods. As you stand so alert for the approach of giants, remind us that we must also watch for our own encroaching evil. Let weakness, cowardice, lies and dishonor be barred from the Rainbow Bridge leading to our heart’s abode. Be a model for vigilance, that we may rise to the best that is in us, and someday join the Noble Gods in their shining home. HAIL HEIMO/HEIMDALL!!

(Hornung/Hermanod = Hoar Month)(E.R.E. = Eternal Roman Empire [rather than BC, AD, BCE or CE])

Plans:  study, prolly shop w/Audie, VA

A.M. Prayer:  Thursday, we pray to Donar/Thor, and lighting a red candle:
Donar/Thor, thunder forth in our lives. When we would hold back, let us advance. When we would be weak, help us be strong. When we would shun life’s pleasures, sharpen our appetites for that which is lusty and good. Help us grow from strength, and teach us, elder brother, how to throw our own Hammer, and slay the giants who appose our will. HAIL DONAR/THOR!!

Rune Summons:
Born of Fire, born of ice,

Advice on how to spend the day

Picture
A.M. Rune:  Algiz (R):  Outside the favor of Heimo/Heimdall who represents our genetic link with the gods/ancestors, without divine protection, possible dangers lurking, lack of preparedness.  Offset this with extra precautions.

Outcome:  That’s okay, I’ll tend to this myself!

Job search online

Just plain goofed off most all morning…

Studied early PM

It was a VERY beneficial visit with the doc at the VA.

Shopped with Audie

Home made cheeseburgers for dinner: YUMMY!

A personal observation: More times than not Algiz comes up reversed and I think I understand why.  It’s because I don’t understand.  Oh, I understand the Heimdall connection and I understand the lore behind the Rune.  What I DON’T understand, and have NEVER understood, is why the emphasis is on the “Z” portion, or hind portion of this particular Rune while the other Runes in the Futhark emphasize the beginning: Ansuz = “A”, Berkana = “B”, Ehwaz = “E”, usw.  Why is it on the Algiz Rune, and it’s only on Algiz, we look at the “Z” for the pronunciation?  I can expect that when someone can adequately explain that one to me then Algiz will figure more positively.  

P.M. Prayer:  Eger und Rahana/Aegir and Ran:
Eger und Rahana/Aegir and Ran, keeper of the deep hall at ocean’s bottom, host to the drowned and the sea lost. Your dwelling might be thought sad and gloomy, but you are known to be kind and hospitable ale givers. In your goodness then, cheer us when waves of misfortune pound our life’s fragile boats to the bottom. For even at the bottom, there is warmth, cheer and hope. Be our assurance and our inspiration to strive on despite the swells and swirls of fate. HAIL AEGIR AND RAN/EGER UND RHANA!!

Plans:  Anatomy lecture class

A.M. Prayer:  Wednesday, we pray to the Divine couple: Wodan/Odin and Frija/Frigga, lighting royal blue (for Wodan/Odin) and light blue (for Frija/Frigga) candles.
Rune god! Wolf God! Raven god! WODAN/ODIN!! We call out to you, not as a slave or on bended knee, but on our feet and opened-armed as befits your offspring. Watch us as we struggle, but the fight and fame must both be ours! Grant us that victory which we win by OUR might and mane! If we live well, Wodan/Odin, grant us access to one of the Great Halls where we may feast, drink and be merry with those who have gone before us until the time comes to live or fight once more. WODAN/ODIN, HAIL!!!

Frija/Frigga, teach us to be patient but not passive; wise but not haughty in our wisdom; far seeing yet not blind to that which is before us. May we nurture life, increase life, and live our own lives more fully. Through you we give honor to our human mothers.  Through you we see all the beauty that surrounds us as well. FRIJA/FRIGGA, HAIL!!

Picture
A.M. Rune:  Hagalaz (irreversible):  OHG Hagal (Huh-guhl):  The cosmic seed of potential, a sacred enclosure/shell, shaping, protection within, holiness, The All: both objective (actual planetary orbs) and subjective (the Nine Worlds), the Germanic cosmos.

Outcome:  Excellent

Meeka for a walk first thing this morning: ya know, I honestly think that 19F, without wind, is perfect!

Online stuff completed prior to class

Anatomy lecture was okay; the exam next week is going to be a mother…

Pretty much stayed in our sacred/home enclosure

I gave Audie some serious shit about her “head-ware”…ROFLMFnAO!!!!!! 

Audie wanted pizza tonight, and as we all know it’s all about keeping Audie happy (LOL)!

International Friendly (futball)
     El Salvador @ USA, in Tampa Florida
     El Salvador 1:2 USA  ;-)

Once again I’m wondering if I’m doing enough spiritually.  Sometimes it just seems there is so much more to do; that I barely do enough what needs be done.

Lately I’ve been envisioning an ancestor leading me home to their Halls.  He looks typically Norse with long gray hair, bearded and wearing a plain tunic.  He smiles as he his hand extended ready to take mine…I long to place my place among them.

I thank the gods for showing me the Old Way!

P.M. Prayer:  Nirdu/Njord:
Nirdu/Njord, god of harbors and seas close to land, Father of Freyr and Freyja, help us to remember the cargoes of wealth that float to our doors daily from the wonderful universe in which we live. Though our misfortunes may rise and fall like the tides, the chance of prosperity, like the eternal sea brimming with fish, is still there. Like the salt-sea spray, awaken us to the possibilities that surround us, so that our nets may be cast wide and return full of life’s gifts. HAIL NIRDU/NJORD!!

Plans:  study. anatomy and physiology labs

NOTE:  Here is an invocation I’ve been working on for ceremonial purposes:

Harugari sings:
Unto us here we call on you Wotan
Unto us here we call Yngvi Frey
Unto us here we call Thor the Mighty
Unto us here we call Tyr the brave.

Hof Frau sings:
Unto us here we call on you Freyja
Unto us here we call Frigg the wise
Unto us here we call Sunna’s power
Unto us here we claim Idun’s prize

Harugari and Hof Frau sing:
Unto us here we call our Altmaga
Unto us here we call on our gods
Unto us here we call the wîh holy
Unto us here we open our hearts 

A.M. Prayer:  Tuesday, we pray to Ziu/Tyr and lighting a purple candle (for honor):
Ziu/Tyr, 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, we may we share in your glory by imitating you. ZIU/TYR HAIL!!

A.M. Rune:  Two Runes:

Picture
Eihwaz (Irreversible):  Yggdrasil, stress and difficulties, a backbone, need to have backbone to get through, turn stress into advantage (questioned by many Rune scholars as to its validity within the Futhark)

And

Picture
Berkana (U):  The feminine, the birch tree, birth, becoming, life changes, the Earth Mother, Frija/Frigga at her most motherly, healing, a significant life passage.

Outcome:  Things may be tough, but the All-Mother is there!

Audie had such a good start to the morning but it was short-lived: she was back in bed before 7:30.

Physiology lab went pretty well.

Sweet Repeats for Audie’s consignment stuff

Quincy’s for lunch

Cram for Anatomy lab

Quiz for Anatomy ID lab went okay at best.  I need to ace another one soon.

Leftover piggy-chops

Audie to bed early again

Studied until my eyes hurt.  These A and P classes are tough.  Thanx for the hug, Frig!

P.M. Prayer:  Ostara/Idun:                          
Ostara/Idun, keeper of the golden apples of youth, 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. HAIL OSTARA/IDUN!!!

A.M. Prayer:  Monday we pray to Mano/Manni, god of the moon, and lighting a white candle (symbolic of the moon):
Greetings to you Mano/Manni, silver messenger on high, as you fly silently on your way      reflect into our souls the glory of the High Ones that we might aspire to the realms of the gods. Bathe our world in soft brightness, and whisper to our souls of joyous realms beyond our knowing. Mano/Manni let us see the goodness within us and without us, all the nights and days of our lives.

A.M. Rune:  Naudiz (Irreversible):  OHG: Nôt (as in “note”): The Rune of Need (whether physical, emotional, spiritual), a stress indicator, friction, transformation, resistance leading to strength, an evolutionary change toward a more holistic state, Fate.  Time to hold a personal inventory.

Outcome:  I would say so; all of last week has been tough.  There better be good reason for it!!!

Meeka for an early morning walk

Kinda goofed off…kinda studied for Anatomy lecture

Anatomy is going to become overwhelming soon.

Audie made some WONDERFUL smothered piggie-chops

Twice I tried to do some online stuff for Anatomy, twice my computer froze-up.  After that I did the best I could to prep for physiology

Audie back to sleep again…how can she sleep so much?

I think I have a better hand on how to prepare for physiology lecture class.  I talked to several people how they do it; so I think I’m going to incorporate a few things.  The next test is Monday.

I feel like I should turn in my Phi Kappa Phi Honors Scholar award from Wichita State

I almost think that EVERY aspect of life is pretty stressful right now: looking for the purpose!

Experimented with physiology studies 

P.M. Prayer:  Wuldar/Ullr:  
Wuldar/Ullr, god of ski and bow, you glide through the snow-clad forests bringing death to game and life to your people. Remind us that life feeds on life, and that the beauty of the prey is formed generation after generation by the culling ferocity of the predator. Let your Yew-bow be the great World-Yew under another guise, so that through the spirit of the hunter, we may climb its branched to ever higher levels of awareness. HAIL WULDAR/ULLR!!

Plans:  GOTTA study, RHK open meeting

NOTE:  I have just about had it dealing with Audie and her funk.  It has gone on way too long and nothing is getting better.  Something has to change…and soon, very soon!  She slept most al day yesterday.  She’s already been up this morning moping.  She started the laundry but evidently I will have to finish it because she’s already gone back to bed and it isn’t even 9AM.  

A.M. Prayer:  Sunday, we pray both to Sonne/Sunna, lighting a yellow candle (symbolic of the Sun):

A.M. Rune:  Raido (R): OHG: Reita: Spinning one’s wheels, lack of movement, a breakdown in order, wrong action and disorder, the opposite of that which is right, off the proper course, void of progress.

Outcome:  I would say there is some serious disorder, yes: void of progress, yes...

Studied: finished the extra credit portion of the last lab for physiology 

Audie back and forth to bed

Grocery shopped

Gassed up the buggy: saved .50 per gal!

Have I watched enough curling lately?  I don’t think so.  Hel, not much moving my ass out of the couch when it’s on the tele most every day!

Rheinwood had an excellent open meeting.  We officially have three probationers now.  So by Yule, if all goes well, we have the potential to expand membership by 100%!

While at the meeting Audie called saying she has had another seizure.  While I’m not discounting that, as she does have a recent history of seizures, I think another possibility is she may have fallen asleep on her feet.  She wasn’t awake when I came home so I’ll check her out tomorrow.  Damn, if it’s not one thing it’s another.  This is definitely a breakdown in order.

P.M. Prayer:  Scata/Skahdi:
Scata/Skahdi, fleet on your skis and let me be the game you bag with you bow.  Stun me with your grace and beauty, tuck me in the skin-sack at your side, and then take me to your home where wolves howl. There, teach me to know the pleasure of the hunt, the joy of exertion, and the crisp freedom of winter and wilderness. Brand my soul with wind-burn, so that even in the tedium of daily life, I will feel your warm breath, warm on my check, telling me to be strong, able and worthy of you. SCATA/SKAHDI, HAIL!!

A.M. Rune:  Two Runes:

Picture
Raido (U):  OHG: Reita, Wheel, riding, ordered/rhythmic movement, a journey, the law of the cosmic right, freedom and moral responsibility of the Self, ordered change, the proper course of faring, progress.

And

Picture
Isa (irreversible):  OHG: Iis (ees) Ice: dormancy: a calming, stilling effect: self-control: the concentrated self: ego: the living soul: das Ich (the unified, whole, principle or force), the composite plurality of Ich, be still and gain control of the Self (in all its forms): grounding, a lowering of vibration levels.

Outcome:  So, the right thing to do is to go slowly…

That shouldn’t be a tough thing to do today as there is a bit of sleet going on first thing this morning.

Audie had more problems at the plasma place.  I’m not quit sure what happened and she didn’t have the wherewithal to explain it.  AL I know is she can’t go back until sometime in April.

Audie continues to be out of sorts.

I have been watching WAY TOO MUCH curling over the last few days.  It’s on almost non-stop on the CNBC news channel.

A bit of studying 

I made a really yummy big bowl of tossed salad!  

Fat Cat sure gets into enough fights.  Today when he came sauntering over for food I made sure to meet him on the porch.  His right ear area looks like shit.

Slow…slow…sloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowww…

Burger King for a quick dinner: I am so addicted to their double cheeseburger; even more so when I found out about their $1.99 deal where I can get a $1 double cheeseburger and a $1.49 order of fries for $1.99: YUMMY!

I called my nephew-in-law.  I know he thinks I’m a bit weird with my “different” interests in life.  In admitting my affection for the game of curling I found out he likes it too!  I was amazed!  

Audie has pretty much slept all day; I guess it’s her way of doing the right thing by taking it slowly.

I’ll no doubt get it a bit more study.

P.M. Prayer:  Paltar/Baldr
Blameless Paltar/Baldr, shining god, let your goodness and your reconciliation smooth our paths on Earth. When our days here are over, light up death’s darkness with the promise of rebirth. Help is to avoid evil, and seek the good. Inspired by you, we will keep our reputations spotless that our lives be proclaimed a victory of the Spirit, and out leaving this life a tragedy. PALTAR/BALDR HAIL!

A.M. Prayer:  Friday, we pray to the glorious siblings, Uualburga Frouwa/Freyja and Ing Fro/Freyr, and lighting a gold candle (for Freyja’s tears and Freyr’s golden boar, Gullinbursti).
Walburga Frouwa/Freyja, who could not love you? Women admire you for your own inner glory and highest attainment as the self-made woman, men for your beauty, passion and strength. Praise to you for the gift of life, and for the love that makes life worth living. Remind us always that it is the strong who love the best and the most, and that only the mighty can truly be gentle. Fill our lives with passion and lust that we may live our lives to the fullest. HAIL WALBURGA FROUWA/FREYJA!!

Ing Fro/Freyr, you are the god of “Ar”, the good harvest and prosperity: you are indeed the lusty enlarger of life. When the day to day wears us down, remind us of pleasures and joys. Help us recall the wonderful excesses that brought our lives into being and which sustain the human spirit during good times and bad. Without you, there would be no life and certainly little delight. Thank you, Ing Fro/Freyr, for the rushing life spirit and the eternal play of passions that make our lives fruitful. ING FRO/FREYR, HAIL!!

A.M. Rune:  Mannaz (U):  The human, cooperation between people, the human intellect, the ability to work well within a social structure and be effective within it, social interaction & order, Divine structure.

Outcome:  Gods I hope so…

Studied Human Anatomy ID Lab: WOW!  There’s a heluvalotta muscles in the lower extremities, head and neck!  Who would have ever thunk it?

All day long I have been in hopes that the Audie I know and love was going to re-emerge; such was not the case.  She has attributed her depression to mourning and that may be, but have come to know her pretty well by know and just feel as though there is something else about which she is not exposing.  She is just keeping all her feelings bottled up.  ARGH!  Nonetheless, I have tried my dead-level best to get along with her today; that is, in spite of herself.

Studied just a bit more…

P.M. Prayer:  All you gods and goddesses bless and keep your Holy Folk. From the cold shadows of the glaciers to the colder shadows of space, always, we have been your people. Guide and guard your North folk as you did in ages past. Wodan/Odin, give wisdom and craft to wits shaped by ice and fire that our foes be foxed. Donar/Thor, give us strength and the will to use it. Ing Fro/Freyr and Uualburga Frouwa/Freyja, give full wombs so that bodies will be found for the souls of heroes. Let your Northern Folk grow in number and in power, so that our kind may live, love, survive and thrive, not just today, not for a millennium, but for ever and ever!

P.M. Rune:  none
