it seems to come down to this. not quite a year ago i asked the same silent questions and was given the gift of hope and reassurance. tonight is no different, with one exception. i have always spread the runic cross, a six rune spread. tonight, without thinking, i performed the five rune spread. i almost stopped and began again in the cross. but then i realised these things happen for a reason.



overview: berkana (reversed) - growth

challenge: kano (reversed) - opening

course of action called for: algiz - protection

sacrifice: laguz - flow

new situation evolving: gebo - partnership



i couldn't help but smile at gebo, but my heart stuttered when i read kano reversed. all together, they give me cause for hope and for peace. remember to let the winds of heaven dance between you.



and this, too.

"Dear Jonathan, would you be so good as to include, when writing your Virgo forecast, a message from my sisters and I. We are keen to do our jobs but whenever we ask for instructions, we are either ignored or ordered to provide nonsensical services. It is most demoralising. Yours, Ms. L Toe - on behalf of wish-granting fairies, everywhere." Dear Ms Toe, I shall pass your comments on to the Virgos but I fear that some are not even aware wish-granting fairies exist - far less that they have exclusive access to these rare ethereal beings. I doubt that they will believe me even when I spell it out.
