Note: Okay, I don’t know where I fucked up. Until I get a proper Irminic Lunar calendar I‘m just going with the Irminic name of the month.
Plans: first full day of class…
NOTE: Toby out for his before-the-crack-o-dawn, 60F/15C, 1-mile walk.
NOTE: WOW! Ran behind schedule so quickly; rushed out the door before prayers.
NOTE: Back home. I know once I get passed those fuckers in the front offices I’ll be alright. This morning’s class was canceled and have to be back at 1PM/13:00. Do those fuckers even care that this is a 15-mile trip, one way, for me? JEEZ!
NOTE: Oh boy, my good luck…now I get to run an errand for A_ before I go back to class. Joy and rapture!
Greetings to you, Mano, glorious male aspect of the moon; silver messenger on high. You’re the measurer and teller of time. 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 let us see the goodness within us and without us, all the nights and days of our lives. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HAIL, MANO, as we honor the Mano that resides in us all!

Ansuz (U): In favor of the gods, Wodan specifically, Wodanic wisdom, the Athem - Divine/vital breath, the force of creation, a higher source of inspiration, communication skills and divine ancestry, higher consciousness, mental stability, self-discipline, Wodan in his most favorable aspect.
Or
Ansuz (R): Outside the favor of Wodan vital/divine breath and the ancestral/Wodanic wisdom, separation from one’s true Spirit, spiritual imbalance, neurotic compulsive liar, exercise caution with communication and dealings including intelligence; a lack of inspiration, the shadow side of Wodan.
Or both

Havamal 159.
A fifteenth I know, which Folk-stirrer sang,
the dwarf, at the gates of Dawn;
he sang strength to the gods, and skill to the elves,
and wisdom to Wodan who utters.
Outcome: I can already see the Ansuz Rune working as I strive toward the Divine Man!
Lunch then back to WATC/NCAT
1st class this afternoon was but an assessment test; reading for information and basic math. I did fine. After class I was given some possibly beneficial information concerning finances. The 2nd class was a bit frustrating this afternoon, but I muddled through it and presented…something…whether or not it was right…I presented…something. After class was through I went to the financial aid office with the information I gleaned earlier. It’ll take work, but I think it would be a good thing.
Awwwwwwwww…both Essie and Toby missed me. Toby was immediately at my feet and it certainly didn’t take Essie long to snuggle in my arms.
Prepped for tomorrow
Blameless Paltar, gloriously shining god, beloved son of Wodan and Frija: 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 our leaving this life a tragedy. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HAIL, PALTAR, as we honor the Paltar that resides in us all!
