Rune Reading for Mani’s Day – 12 May 2025

As we seek to understand the influences that we have experienced, as well as the experiences we’ve yet to have, we search for an answer as to what force we must keep in reserve to help us on our path toward our destiny. To visualize these influences and counter-energies, we will call upon the layout of the “four winds” that we may learn of our adversaries and allies in our mental battle for safety.

Past Influences (top center)
Kenaz (Inverted) – “It could mean over-conceptualization, elitism, arrogance, ignorance, lack of creativity, inability, breakup, decay, and disease.”
Present Influences (lower center)
Odinn’s Rune – More focus necessary, see section below.
Future Influences (to the left)
Algiz – “It could mean protection, higher life, awakenings, or connection to the gods.”
Bedrock (things to remain) (to the right)
Othala (Inverted) – “It could mean genocide, racism, xenophobia, homelessness, poverty, slavery, totalitarianism, or lack of customary order.”

Dagen’s Indsigt
Each morning, I engage in conversation with my gods. During which they offer me wisdom and guidance, and in return I offer them myself that they may do with that which they need to. I have felt the gods manage my experiences throughout the years, and especially over the last several decades, engaging me in a multitude of ways. Today, I offer to you that which was told to me by the gods in this morning’s talks. However, as I offer you the wisdom given to me, I encourage you to seek the answers within yourself, as each of us travels a different path, therefore our perspectives are a little different. 
To reveal the influences of our past, we have drawn the rune of Kenaz, the rune of humility, and today it issues us cautions as to the influences it has offered our psyche. The main principle here is that it cautions us about over conceptualizing, overthinking. Overthinking can lead our mind to a form of elitism and arrogance that we don’t need. Taking away the lessons of the past we must remember that they truly only apply to ourselves, and while offering advice to others, we must remember the burden of authority remains solely on them as to whether it applies to their path, or not.
Our present influence is that of Odinn’s Rune. Odinn’s rune indicates the lack of sufficient information necessary for the gods to determine exactly what we should do with this information, and what information to offer. In our present, the sky is really the limit, as you have a complete freedom to believe whatever you feel will carry you forward toward your destiny. Regardless as to what we conceptualize, our heart knows the way to accomplish our destiny. The major limitations that our mind has rests solely on that which we apply to it, therefore understanding what we have applied, we are in a better position to manage what we allow in the future and what we need to dispose of within our thoughts and feelings.  
To further reveal our future influences, we have drawn the rune of Algiz, the rune of the listening. The rune of Algiz in our future position indicates that we need to ensure that we continue to listen, not only with our ears, but with our heart as well. Our ancestors can offer us intellect and wisdom beyond our wildest imagination; however, we have to teach ourselves to listen for their quiet voices. Being peaceful within the mind can allow the voices to become loud enough that we may find direction and purpose in their words.
To understand what influences we should retain, we have drawn the rune, Othala, the rune of our ancestry. Today, the rune issues us cautions about the genocide of our ancestors within our mind. The rune itself indicates a connection to the ancestors through the spiritual realm, and in the bedrock position we know that the universe is teaching us that this connection is critical to our emotional and intellectual success in this lifetime. Hold tight the ancestors as they help us to understand the path that lies before us.

How can we use this today?
Keeping in mind that which the ancestors have taught us, whether by action, or by word, their emotional states tightly bound to the many experiences they offer for us to learn and grow from. Today, they speak that which we should spend time in deep contemplation, or meditation, to learn the path at which to travel.
Be Well my friends.

As always, we embrace our sisters who have been lost to this world, we will see them again on the other side. Until then, we ask the creator (the gods) to bring the ones who are still upon the plane of existence home to the loved ones who remain. We ask the creator (the gods) to be with those who have lost a sister, to pass through the sunshine to add with the rain of the heart to grow in place, love.
