(Brachmond = Fallow month)(ERE = Eternal Roman Empire; rather than BC, AD,
BCE or CE)
Plans: classes
NOTES: A bit of thunder and lightening overnight, not much rain though, I
don‘t think. Socks was safe in the Haruc. Essie was hidden deep. Toby was
close-by.
First thing this morning I am concerned about my constant eye pain. Could be
as simple as allergies? Off to Dillons this morning for Visine.
Essie on tether first thing.
AM Prayer: Ziustac/Tuesday, we pray to Ziu, lighting a purple candle (for
honor):
Ziu, husband to Zisa, Great God of bravery, one-handed god, 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 our 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 A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, ZIU, as we honor the Ziu
that resides in us all!

Born of fire, born of ice
Life is lived at such a price
Elder Runes in your way
Advise the mortal man today
AM Elder Rune: Uruz (U): The Auroch beast, the primal
instinct, survival, an impulse towards action, creation taking shape, expansion,
tenacity, vital strength, instinct of survival, taking risks,
stick-to-itiveness, foundation, a stabilizing effect, moral strength, healing,
rejuvenation, good health and energy, primal drizzle.
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
AM Armanen Rune: Os:
Havamal 148.
The fourth one I know, when a foe has tied up
My arms and hands;
The fetters fall from my leg, when I chant that song,
And off my hands the ropes come.
That which is offered, freedom, Wodanic energies, leadership, mouth, speech,
the effort to convince, deed following the word, the Divine Breath, kingship,
discussion, idea of that which is given/evolving, the spiritual power that is
gained through speech, it is the breath of the world, its voice, strength that a
person needs to rise up in power, freedom from the bondage of the material
world.
Utterance: URUZOS!
Interpretation: The instinct of survival (Uruz) is that which is offered
(Os).
Outcome: I MUST survive to continue in classes. I’m horribly tired, but must
persevere.
No morning walk for Toby, but he settled for the next best thing: one-on-one
porch time.
Oh great! Now I have water problems in my
bathroom.
Tutoring went well. I accomplished what I set out to do, but I’m just
realizing what’s due by Sunday night. SHIT MOTHER FUCKING HEL!
No more afternoons off with this kind of work to be done in Computer Apps
class.
A load of laundry
Despite having to dumpster-dive for a grade as I accidentally threw out my
butt-weld test piece yesterday, Welding class actually didn’t go badly.
PM Prayer: Wuldar, glory-god, hunting-god, ski-god, dueling-god; Son
of Sibba, step-son of Donar, 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. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, WULDAR, as we honor the Wuldar that
resides in all of us!
PM Clarification Rune: none
