Ogham Readings on Sundays

[kimberlysteele]

Hi Everyone,

 

I am happy to read your Ogham free of charge -- that's how I hone my divination skills. I take reading requests until 8pm Central Time (Chicago Illinois USA) on Sunday night. Though I am flattered that people want readings after the deadline, I decline reading requests made after 8pm Central Time on Sunday night without exception.

 

Please note I will be taking off the weeks of December 24, 2023 and December 31, 2023.  Readings will resume as usual January 7, 2024.

For a more in depth look into how I read and interpret the Ogham's symbols, please visit my website druidogham.wordpress.com.

I am currently trying to minimize my use of PayPal.  If you'd like to make a donation, I would be grateful if you did it here:

Your prayers of blessing to the deity/deities of your choice are welcome whether or not you can donate.

Hi Kimberly,

What would the outcome be if a gave a presentation about Subject D to my classmates at the end of the month?

Thank you for your time.

Hello. I have been enduring a difficult landlord situation the past several months. While I supposedly just signed a form to leave my shared room by month's end, I am not confident I can trust this landlord on his word - he's tried to manipulate me to claim I caused home problems I never caused, and he has harassed me in the house. Yet my intuition indicates I need to work with him directly in order to move out properly.

Can your Ogham give a reading on my situation? I'm not sure how to best ask the Ogham about it. Maybe a "Me, Situation, Course of Action" reading is appropriate? And if it's not too much to ask, can I also ask the Ogham as to where my best option for housing would be should I successfully move out of my current place?

Sincere thanks to you and your Ogham.

Good Morning Kimberly,

To review: Luis Ill dignified Luis has been a constant companion all week. Every single day since Saturday I have been passing by car accident after car accident, and it is taxing to maintain the constant vigilance and prudence to avoid getting sucked into these conditions.

To ask: What is it that I need to know this week, according to the Ogham?

[(Anonymous)]

What will have a better outcome for my life, choice A (continuing current thing) or choice B (ending current thing and moving on to something new)? Where the thing in question is known to me and your Ogham, lol.

What’s up this week?

[lukedodson]

Hi Kimberley,

My friend has a spare room in her house, and I'm considering asking her whether I can rent it out. I'm 50/50 on how good an idea this is though - it's a lovely house and I live in an area in which it is very, very difficult to find good rental situations, but there are some things about her lifestyle, energy, and general outlook on life that are a bit different from me, and that gives me pause.

What do your Ogham think?

Thanks in advance!

Hello Kimberly,

I'm the guy that received the optimistic relationship readings a while ago.

On a whim (and a last-minute deep discount due to an insufficient number of men participating), I attended a speed dating event yesterday, and I was informed this morning that I matched with one person. What do your Ogham think about the match?

By the way, I don't know what's going on with T, but I'm tempted to throw in the towel already. I wonder if she has baggage from her past that she still needs to process. (Or maybe we both do ..)

Thanks!

Hi Kimberly,

A job I'm interested in applying for is going to be doing three recruiting sessions in about a month, a couple days apart. I'll only be able to attend one, so I'd like to know which one I have the best chance at: the first, second, or third.

[nightwatchwaits]

Dear Kimberly. Please can you ask you Ogham what will I be wise to keep in mind in my upcoming conversations with my parents.

[(Anonymous)]

Greetings Kimberly! What do your Ogham recommend I keep in mind this week?

With thanks and blessings,

Heloise

Your Ogham were right last week

[miow]

Hi Kimberly
A week ago I asked whether a group I am friends with were in trouble and your Ogham said yes, and that the health of one was going to be an issue. Update. My heart breaks to report the kindest and loveliest out of the group died unexpectedly yesterday morning. I can't see the group surviving her loss. Please thank your guides for the heads up. It was still a shock and very sad as unexpected. Also thank you for the wise and comforting essay you wrote last week after suffering your own dear dad. Much love and gratitude to you dear Kimberly.

Please can I ask what this week might bring for me?

May Lady Bast bless you and yours x

Hi Kimberly, I have the opportunity to work with two people to further my goals in different ways, let's call them C and M. What do the Ogham think of working with C and with M? This choice is not mutually exclusive; I can work with both. Thanks!

[(Anonymous)]

Could the Ogham tell me why I've been feeling quite so bleak lately?

And what can I do to fix it? (if anything)

Thanks.

[nebulous_realms]

Greetings Kimberly!

Tunesmyth is promoting his autumn challenge - people ask for prayers that address areas they need to improve upon in their life. What aspect of my life/personality does your Ogham recommend I work on most at this time, and so I could submit a prayer request for?

Thanks as always!

Santa Muerte

[(Anonymous)]

Good Afternoon Kimberly,

I have recently received guidance that I should begin petitioning Nuestra Señora de la Santa Muerte. I'm not catholic. My questions for the Ogham are: is this a good practice for me to begin and should I use the catholic prayers and rituals?

Thank you,
-MF

Hi Kimberly,

I have two job offers I'm considering. Could your ogham say how jobs A or C will turn out if I take it?

Week 45

[(Anonymous)]

Hi Kimberly,

1. What do I need to know in order to make the best out of this week?

2. May the Ogham comment on "the individuals (as a collective group) who I (foolishly?) wish were a part of my life"?

Thanks!

Hi Anon,

My Ogham like it and they think the outcome will be a net positive. They provide Saille or Sensitivity, which is to say they think your presentation is the right thing at the right time. You will benefit from keeping it streamlined, straightforward, honest, minimalist, and direct. Keep it simple.

[kimberlysteele]

Sounds like a rough time! I wish you my best.

For the You card, the Ogham provide Duir or Gifts ill-dignified which tells me that the landlord is using his or her privileges to stomp all over you and/or is acting like he or she and the room you are renting is God's gift. My Ogham agree that you need to work with him and be sweet and agreeable all while making a run for it as fast as you can. This guy or lady is bad news.

For the Situation, you drew Ngetal or Hygiene well-dignified. This seems to say that you've kept track of things, been a good tenant, and that you are smart about not trusting the landlord. Since you've kept your own hands clean, you should look into your rights as a tenant and gather your paperwork as well as snapping photos of the room to show it is in good condition in case the landlord tries to blame you for damage you did not cause later on.

For the course of action, my Ogham give you Tinne or Defense ill-dignified. You need to prepare an array of defenses, such as the photos I mentioned, any receipts and paperwork, and potentially some kind of legal or physical protection as the landlord is giving psycho vibes. If I were you I would start wearing an amulet almost constantly. The low level astral and etheric parasites that hang around people like your landlord won't be able to penetrate a hoodoo amulet and that will lessen the landlord's negative influence on you.

For the kind of situation you should seek, my Ogham provide Ur or Intimacy well-dignified. This is their way of saying you should crash at a friend's or relative's house until you find a new place to live.

[kimberlysteele]

Thanks for the feedback!

You drew three cards this week.

For the You card, you drew Phagos or Teaching. You are either in the presence of a master this week or you shine as the master. Every one of us has something we can do exceptionally well, and one of the most frustrating parts of life is figuring out where we shine. It is my opinion that most addictions are the result of a combination of not being able to figure out what one is truly good at and the resulting frustration. This is a good week to look at when your expertise is being sought and what that means in the scheme of the life you have in front of you.

For the Situation, you drew Saille or Sensitivity well-dignified. You are able to throw out what does not serve you this week. Because this is Situation, it can directly affect or be happening to your most-loved loved ones. Getting rid of what no longer serves you can be painful but it is always necessary, healthy, and helpful.

For the Outcome, you drew Tinne or Defense ill-dignified. This is a straight up danger card in my Ogham, so be on your guard this week. Otherwise, it can be talking about being too defensive, touchy, grouchy, paranoid, or suspecting others when you don't need to go there. On the flipside of imbalance, it can be talking about trusting the wrong people and things, being too lax in your protection of others, or feeling guilty for not rising to someone's defense whether or not it would make a difference.

[kimberlysteele]

Hi Jan,

Interesting question... I like the mysterious ones. My Ogham like Choice B.

For Choice A, they provide Coll or Wisdom ill-dignified. To be unwise is to either be imbalanced on the side of flailing helplessness or tipped towards reckless arrogance. Either one is just as bad.

For Choice B, they provide Onn or Community well-dignified. In a good dignity, Onn is friendly and recognizes its place. It is humble and acknowledges the ecosystem it must remain in harmony with in order to survive and thrive.

Hi PCK,

You drew three cards this week.

For the You position, you drew Ailm or Transcendence well-dignified. With Ailm there could be trolls, but you show them you don't have time for their nonsense and you keep your head well above water. Ailm is overcoming depression, bad attitudes, and bad habits by building on the positive.

For the Situation, you drew Quert or Delight well-dignified. This is a good week to relax, kick back, and to enjoy the small pleasures of life. When you find celebration in what others consider unworthy and insignificant, you sublimate those things to amplify good fortune throughout your life. Your gratitude for what others take for granted can actually create good luck.

For the Outcome, you drew Nuin or Communication ill-dignified. There will be difficulty in Mercury-related parts of your life, my Ogham predict. Mercury rules technology, communication (obviously), commerce, but also trickery, doctors, and transportation. Expect some friction from one of those areas.

[kimberlysteele]

My Ogham generally think it will work out. They provide Ioho or Grace well-dignified, meaning that you'll have to be very gracious and so will she, but overall, you can make the shoe fit. Good luck!

[kimberlysteele]

Boy, it sounds rough out there.

My Ogham don't much care for the speed-dating match. I hope they are wrong. They provide Huath or Obstacles ill-dignified, which indicates that the person has some serious problems or life stuff that could be a deal-breaker in your case.

For T, they provide Coll or Wisdom ill-dignified, which means it is too early to call. That said, your main task should be to meditate about how you feel about T, not about how she feels about you. Is she worth pondering? Fighting for? If not, set her free to her destiny.

[(Anonymous)]

Thanks Kimberly!

[kimberlysteele]

Hi Anon,

My Ogham give you Coll ill-dignified for the first one, which means it's highly unlikely. For number 2, they give Tinne or Defense well-dignified. For three, they give Nuin or Communication well-dignified. Number 3 is by far the best because it is ruled by Mercury, god of communication and commerce, and will give you the largest berth of success.

[kimberlysteele]

Hi NWW,

My Ogham give you three cards this week. All are well-dignified. Though this does not guarantee a drama-free week, it does point to you overcoming obstacles with style and grace.

For the You position, you drew Ur or Intimacy. You say the right things at the right times and back up words with correct and diligent action. If you have a close person in your life, that relationship is of very high quality this week. Your "spider sense" serves you and your loved ones well, making them feel like you truly "see" them.

For the Situation, you drew Eadha or Limits. This is probably the most important card in the Ogham deck -- be glad it is well-dignified! You have a healthy sense of where you end and others begin. You also have an excellent sense of what you can and cannot control. This is a good week to write observations about limits (personal and otherwise) in a journal because the Ogham think you are going to have some insights you'll want to save for later.

For the Outcome, you drew Beith or Intention. Like me and every other human on this planet, you are here for a specific set of reasons and you have been given a specific skill set to achieve them. This week, you are given a great deal of opportunity to focus on what makes you great and more importantly to discard that which distracts from that divine goal.

[kimberlysteele]

Hi Heloise,

You drew three cards this week.

This may be a turbulent week. For the You card, you drew Huath or Obstacles ill-dignified. This one can be a physical danger card in my Ogham, so be very cautious and guarded, don't take any risks, and overall try to lay low and don't do anything dangerous or strenuous. Other than physical danger, Huath means either you have too much mojo -- acting rashly -- or too little, as if your get up and go "got up and went" and you feel you cannot rise to whatever the occasion is calling for.

For the Situation, you drew Ioho or Grace well-dignified. This week shows you deferring or someone close to you doing the same. Deferment is often an act of grace, of letting the younger ones carry the torch, and recognizing that for anything new to be born, something old must die.

For the Outcome, you drew Uilleand or Generosity ill-dignified. In an unbalanced state, at its very worst, Uilleand points to enabling or molly coddling, for instance not being able to say No to a child and it winds up making him or her spoiled. In other words, Uilleand is pretty mild even when ill-dignified. The other possibility of "imbalance" is you spilling over with generosity, and in that case, it only returns to bless you seven times. There is no bad side to that form of imbalance.

Re: Your Ogham were right last week

[kimberlysteele]

Hi Miow,

So sorry to hear that! I hope she has a blessed journey and is guided through the Gates.

You drew three cards this week, all well-dignified. All well-dignified readings do not promise a drama free week, however, the Ogham see you triumphing over obstacles and difficulties with uncommon maturity and dignity.

For the You card, you drew Nuin or Communication. Straight up, you will get your messages across with great clarity and efficiency. You can also expect good luck in all things Mercurial: writing, technology, commerce, and travel. It is a good week to connect with your own Holy Guardian Angel (communication isn't just human to human) as well as your ecosystem as you will have unusually clear perception of messages shooting across the planes.

For the Situation, you drew Eadha or Limits. This is a good week to track your energy, both literal and metaphorical, and to document it with a journal. You will be able to clearly see how investing energy in one direction takes it away from another, and it is up to you to figure out where exactly you wish to manifest your energy.

For the Outcome, you drew Ngetal or Hygiene. You have a healthy idea of where you end and others begin, and you neither seek to isolate yourself in a bubble nor to interact with people and things that waste your time. This is not to say others won't press you for involvement. You cannot create your own ecosystem as this is Meatworld (it sucks) and we don't have that locus of control, but you can certainly influence it and direct it.

[kimberlysteele]

My Ogham say there are pitfalls with either one of them but M is generally better.

For C, they give you Phagos or Teaching ill-dignified. This means that either you won't be able to grok or work with the teachings C gives you or that it could be the blind leading the blind a.k.a. C does not know as much as previously assumed.

For M, they give Uilleand or Generosity ill-dignified. This shows that M may possibly be a generous person that will bend over backwards to help you. If not, it may be showing that M is amiable but only wants to molly coddle you for reasons unknown. Hopefully it is the first one.

[kimberlysteele]

Well, sometimes my Ogham are very blunt. They give you Muin or Harvest well-dignified, which is their way of saying your bleakness is a self-fulfilling prophecy: you reap what you sow. You may be hanging around bleak people, watching depressing/nihilist movies, immersed in the study of dark and somber topics, and if so, your bleakness is the natural result of filling your mind with bleakness. To get over this, you need to repopulate your astral space with happier, more humorous images, stop taking yourself so seriously, get more sunshine and exercise, and make laughter a priority.

For what you can do to fix it, they give you Quert or Delight well-dignified. You can start making your life happier by thanking all of the objects, places, and people within it. This includes thanking the chair that hosts your butt and the sidewalk that bears your pounding feet. Don't let one meal, night's sleep, or act of kindness go un-thanked, and when you say thank you, make sure you mean it. Before long, you'll find that objects and spaces will follow suit with people: they will be grateful to you for being grateful about them.

[kimberlysteele]

Hi Neb,

Very cool! My Ogham give you Saille or Sensitivity well-dignified. They think you should work on your flexibility and sensitivity. In my Ogham, flexibility is part of Saille, which is symbolized by the Willow. You might take this literally and do stretching exercises, Tai Chi, or yoga while having others pray for your physical well-being. Sensitivity also means developing your listening and empathy skills and learning how to truly see others with your mind's eye. Lastly, Saille points to the need to eliminate what you don't love or what "does not spark joy" in Marie Kondo's vernacular so that you may focus on what improves you and makes you happy.

Re: Santa Muerte

[kimberlysteele]

I feel you on this one -- I have often been drawn to Santa Muerte though I have yet to propitiate to her formally. I was Catholic in several past lives so that may have something to do with it.

My Ogham like the idea of you petitioning her. They provide Saille or Sensitivity well-dignified for the petition, which tells me you need to research what Santa Muerte likes and make her an altar. From what I have heard, she prefers to have an altar.

For the Catholic prayers and rituals, my Ogham say Yes. They give Beith or Beginnings well-dignified, meaning you can start with something simple such as the Stations of the Cross and some basic prayers on a daily basis.

[kimberlysteele]

My Ogham don't care much for Job A but Job C looks good.

For Job A, they provide Phagos or Teaching ill-dignified, meaning the boss or the employees will either be those insufferable fake types of people or they will be incompetent.

For Job C, they give Ioho or Grace well-dignified, which shows the environment will be sufficiently chill but serious enough the work gets done.

Re: Week 45

[kimberlysteele]

Hi Eugene,

You drew three cards this week.

For the You position, you drew Quert or Delight ill-dignified. Quert in this dignity can mean overdoing it with food, drink, or mind-altering substances; moderation is key, and that does not mean tee-totaling. It means learning to indulge without going overboard and making enjoyment a habit. Quert in this dignity can also point to rudeness, so don't give rudeness if that is what you get.

For the Situation, you drew Beith or Intention ill-dignified. This one can simply mean you don't have a ton of energy this week and you have to be careful where you spend it. Don't go in too many directions at once and enforce the word NO until you get used to saying it. Craft your intentions but also prune them: you emphatically cannot do it all, nor would you want to.

For the Outcome, you drew Oir or Epiphany well-dignified. You have the opportunity to recognize the truth this week, and it is all about how you follow up on that insight that matters.

For the question about the individuals you wish were a part of your life, the Ogham give you Straif or Resilience ill-dignified, meaning this train of thought is not worth your time and does more harm than good to your general astral state. My Ogham also predict that these individuals are skilled at making their lifestyles/habits look pretty but time may end up being a harsh taskmaster when it comes to sustaining their apparent glory.

[kimberlysteele]

Hi PW,

You and your family drew three cards this week, all well-dignified. Though this may look like a rosy week at first glance, I can tell you from experience it more often than not points to overcoming obstacles with style and grace more than it indicates a cakewalk.

For the You position, you drew Oir or Epiphany. Truth strikes like lightning, and though it can hurt, it also shows exactly where the problem is and what is needed to begin solving it.

For the Situation, you drew Saille or Sensitivity. The situation will call for flexibility -- you should not bend until you snap or be a pushover but you also need to move with the times and act with proportion and instant adjustment. (In other words, parenting ain't easy.) Saille shows that you will do a lovely job of adapting to the circumstances in a timely fashion.

For the Outcome, you drew Duir or Gifts. Duir is one of the most pleasant card in the Ogham deck. It's not just about generosity but about spreading your gifts around so they not only get the traction they deserve, they inspire others to act upon their own unique gifts.

For the
