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.
MANO/MANNI, HAIL!!

Advice on how to spend the day
Wunjo (U): Joy, pasture, joy attained with the fulfillment of a wish, the strong Clanic relationship, social contacts, fellowship, happiness, optimism, realization of true will, social and domestic harmony, good cheer, new social relationships, Fridu/Frith; within a secure setting, the good/bright side of Wodan/Odin.
Or
Wunjo (R): Sadness, disruption in the Clanic relationship, questionable social contacts, loser, miserable, loneliness, shunning, weakened family ties, social and domestic disharmony, the inability to attain a wish, strife, alienation, failed social relationships, Fridu/Frith is challenged, the shadow side of Wodan/Odin.
Or both…
Outcome: It’s a beautifully overcast and cool morning; a pretty joyous way to start a morning. The only thing that could ruin it is, according to the local weather, a warm-up coming this afternoon: sad.
Audie started the day pretty rough and stiff (sad). I played a bit of chiropractor, popped her back in a couple of places, and she seems to be moving better (joy).
Meeka for a walk (joy) while the getting was good!
I discovered a major error in the checking account (sadness). Luckily I had enough in the liquid account to cover it (joy).
Well forgot about this. Today is the celebrated Columbus Day. I can imagine for the uneducated or the apathetic, this a joyous time of celebration. There is enough proof to the contrary to create sadness:

Work went well enough.
Walk #2 for Meeka and me. It’s always a joy when I take her out; even more so because I don’t have to keep her on a leash. She behaves well.
PM Prayer: All you gods and goddesses bless andkeep 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. Fro/Freyr and Froja/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!
PM Rune: none
