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. Please limit your reading request to four or fewer Ogham cards: though this can take many forms, here are some common ones (all of them are basically combos of 4 cards):
-a single three card reading for the week or month and a one-off, one card reading
-four questions about four separate items that require one answer (card) per item
-a one card reading to answer a specific question and a three card for a more nuanced question
-Two separate readings, two cards a piece exploring the positives and negatives of two different choices
-a one card reading to answer a specific question and a three card for a more nuanced question
-Two separate readings, two cards a piece exploring the positives and negatives of two different choices
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.
I am happy to do Ogham readings confidentially via email -- just email me at k steele studio at gmail during the allotted time/before deadline.
Please note I take time off during Solstices and Equinoxes for Druid stuff and because sometimes I simply need a break.
My next planned break is the week of Sunday, June 23.

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

You drew three cards for this week.
For the You position, you drew Uilleand or Generosity ill-dignified. At its best, this card can still be good in the ill-dignified position. It means an excess of generosity either directed at you or going out from you. At its worst, it talks about molly coddling, spoiling, and being smothered or spoiled. Either you run the risk of doing this or it is potentially being done to you.
For the Situation, you drew Koad or Confluence ill-dignified. This is not an auspicious week for outings, big projects, and breaking routine. Do what you have to, but be prepared for unpleasant and unexpected snafus if you do. Partially, you have caused this or it was part of the consequences of your actions, so though you should not blame yourself for everything, you ought to recognize your small part in it.
For the Outcome, you drew Ur or Intimacy ill-dignified. Close relationships are rocky and it becomes extremely useful to curate your personality to whom you are speaking, even if the person knows you quite well. It is also advised to play the Glad Game (essay forthcoming this week on this subject) when you find yourself encased in negativity.
Offlist about sexual problem
Date: 2024-05-06 01:11 am (UTC)Since your sexual partner may not want to be identified, next time, please post anonymously so it is nearly impossible to trace the comment. You can do this by making sure you are signed out of Dreamwidth before commenting.
The Ogham give you Muin or Harvest ill-dignified, which is to say the problem may not be solvable and/or that you may need to radically change your lifestyle, and if that's not something you are willing to do, you are unlikely to get any traction. The Ogham think you need to mentally prepare yourself for what happens if the problem cannot be solved. In the meantime, the best strategy is petitioning one or more gods about it and backing it up with concrete physical action and routine.

Date: 2024-05-06 01:33 am (UTC)You drew three cards this week.
For the You position, you drew Ngetal or Hygiene ill-dignified. Be vigilant about your health this week and practice moderation -- that means tee-totaling/avoidance of the "bad" is as destructive as overindulgence. So have a little beer or chocolate or whatever your poison happens to be, just don't overdo it. Hygiene also talks about boundaries and needing to potentially enforce them. Be ready to say NO, especially when it comes to spending time in a way that doesn't have you living your fullest life.
For the Situation, you drew Nuin or Communication well-dignified. You make your points in the most tactful and effective way possible: no nonsense, no rudeness. You use technology and connectivity to its fullest, getting around obstacles and proving that you know your stuff.
For the Outcome, you drew Oír or Epiphany well-dignified. A revelation that is potentially deeply personal comes to you. If it is deeply personal, make sure to keep it to yourself. It isn't always the case. Some revelations are fine to be shared. This is a realization that needs to happen, so despite the good dignity, it may be painful to deal with.

no subject
Date: 2024-05-06 01:37 am (UTC)Yes, my Ogham like June 12 a great deal for launching your Substack. They give Quert or Delight well-dignified, which is a card symbolized by the Apple tree and symbolizes a harvest good enough to last (pies, preserves, and cider for a long time) and that it is joyful and happy as apple trees tend to be.
For the job opportunity, the Ogham give Coll or Wisdom well-dignified. Yes, you have interpreted the clues correctly. Coll does not mean you have it in the bag though -- it indicates more "school of hard knocks" experience stands between you and your goal.

Date: 2024-05-06 09:30 pm (UTC)b) Well, my general sense of the situation is that Mercury is giving me the chance to achieve my goal... If I work for it. It's nice to get some confirmation here.

Date: 2024-05-06 01:47 am (UTC)Interesting. I asked my Ogham what you needed to work on most in order to enchant her and they said Ngetal or Health ill-dignified. This means you need to address the most basic aspects of hygiene and appearance: if you have unibrow, time to pluck it. If you are out of shape, time to start a weight lifting routine. Bad wardrobe? Time to dress for success -- it can easily be done cheaply with thrifted clothing if you're willing to be a selective shopper. Ngetal can also have boundary implications: always know where you end and she begins. I am presuming you are a man. Men actually take more than they give women on the etheric plane most of the time. One of the reasons women are stereotyped as wanting a ton of jewelry, lavish entertainments, and expensive flowers is because it is an exchange for the bounty they provide on the etheric plane. One of the best things you can do in order to attract a good woman (a good etheric provider) is to show you can provide for yourself. A clean, well-run living space, evidence that you cook and tidy all by yourself or can at least hire it done, and the gentle art of making the most out of your appearance go a long way into making you more lovable. That said, if you do all this and she's just not that into you, you will have to know when to say when and back off.
Feedback and Query
Date: 2024-05-05 04:44 pm (UTC)For feedback, I did feel unwell and tired last week. An old muscle injury flared up.
There were lots of community demands - the end of the school year is approaching in these parts.
What do your Ogham predict for this week?
With gratitude and blessings, Heloise
Re: Feedback and Query
Date: 2024-05-06 01:53 am (UTC)Thank you! My hip was bothering me this week, and then I had some digestive issues. There must be something in the air.
For the You position, you drew Ur or Intimacy ill-dignified. A loved one may be pissy, or you may be the disgruntled one. It's also tempting to spill more information than needed or than is prudent. Keep your mouth zipped up if in any shadow of doubt.
For the Situation, you drew Koad or Confluence well-dignified. Merging factors are auspicious in general. Some of this is due to your nature and the good that you've put in place. Some of it is dumb luck. Be prepared to take advantage of a good deal, to share warmth and wealth, and to receive or give favors.
For the Outcome, you drew Quert or Delight ill-dignified. Overindulgence is extremely tempting: think food, drink, shopping, and other nice-feeling stuff that leaves you feeling guilty afterwards. That said, not indulging at all or teetotaling is just as imbalanced as its opposite. Enjoy and imbibe responsibly -- this teaches the lesson we humans need most in this particular era: MODERATION. Also, this card may mean you have to deal with rudeness or rude people.

Date: 2024-05-06 02:18 am (UTC)You drew three cards this week. All were ill-dignified. Even though it may seem gloomy, please keep in mind I have had some of the best days of my life on all-dig readings... maybe because I was not surprised by the problems that popped up in the slightest.
For the You position, you drew Beith or Beginnings. Draw careful and austere limits on your time and energy this week. You won't have time to do it all, so choose your battles well. You might feel as if your get up and go got up and went. The best remedy for this kind of inertia is to make yourself do something, even if it is small and mostly meaningless, like cleaning the toilet or organizing a drawer. Nevertheless, if you need to rest, do it.
For the Situation, you drew Quert or Delight. You need to stop, smell the roses, talk to the trees, and appreciate the tiny details that make life worth living. In an age where all of us are born spiritually retarded and etherically starved, the more you can talk to the spirits of the land while appreciating what 99.99% take for granted, the saner and happier you will become. Be prepared for rude people and awkward situations -- make the best of them and always reconsider before returning their rudeness to them in kind.
For the Outcome, you drew Onn or Community. Perhaps you are expecting too much from semi-strangers and perhaps they are expecting too much of you. It may be time to withdraw, chill out, and take a break from being social. If you are forced to be social, cultivate Midwestern Nice. My expertise at Midwestern Nice has saved me a great deal of drama in this incarnation. Luckily I did not have to do too much study as I was born into it...

Date: 2024-05-06 02:27 am (UTC)You drew three cards this week.
For the You card, you drew Ruis or Regret well-dignified. You have your mea culpas, but at least you own them and you can look at them unflinchingly like a grown up. Having been around the block or two is your distinct advantage this week. Be prepared to say "No."
For the Situation, you drew Ur or Intimacy ill-dignified. Close relationships may hit speedbumps. Curate what you reveal about yourself, including with the closest of loved ones. In my own case, I am unapologetically the masks I wear and I see nothing wrong with putting on the appropriate mask with the appropriate person. The only person who will ever know me utterly is myself. Other than that, God knows who I am and that is all I care to divulge!
For the Outcome, you drew Beith or Intention well-dignified. This week has you putting energy into the right projects and causes while diverting energy from what isn't important or what can wait. This is a good week to look at how you avoid distraction. What are your areas of excellence this week when it comes to framing in a larger perspective later on?

Date: 2024-05-06 02:38 am (UTC)This looks like a week of good outcomes for you. All cards were well-dignified.
For the You card, you got Nuin or Communication. You make your points with tact and grace, neither saying too much nor too little. This is a great week for buying and selling, working out difficult negotiations, contacting old and new friends, and potentially gaining deserved recognition.
For the Situation, you drew Gort or Perseverance. You have shown great staying power for sticking to what matters and the Divine wants you to know it is appreciated. They encourage you to keep your nose to the grindstone and to enjoy the process as much as possible.
For the Outcome, you drew Uilleand or Generosity. The flow of generosity is balanced, both coming into your sphere and going out of it. This is a good week to observe how generosity sublimates all it touches and parsimony/greed soils all it touches. The more you can learn to give from the heart, the more you will elevate your own astral state to that sublime state of consciousness dubbed "heaven".

Re: Week 19
Date: 2024-05-06 03:06 am (UTC)You drew three cards this week.
For the You card, you drew Ruis or Regret ill-dignified. It is important to cultivate a balanced perspective towards regret this week. Remember that wallowing in all you've done wrong or feel bad about is as terrible as running away into carelessness/sociopathy. Also, don't blame yourself for what you may not be responsible for.
For the Situation, you drew Duir or Gifts well-dignified. You have gifts to give and if you notice them, you can amplify them. What you grow within yourself, you can share and help others in the world by sharing. All of us are put here with specific, special gifts to send out into the world. Turning away from your faults and focusing on your strengths is suggested this week, and journaling can help to track that.
For the Outcome, you drew Ailm or Transcendence ill-dignified. You have many bad habits and they threaten to drag you down to their level. Inertia is real. If you find you can barely lift a finger, your strategy is to at least do something small. For instance, when I am tempted to sit around doing nothing, I pick up a book (at least I can learn something while I sit there). I have a list of small tasks to do when I suffer inactivity inertia: cleaning out a drawer, getting rid of extra clothing, weeding a small patch of the garden, doing a divination, etc. The journey of 10,000 miles begins with a single step.

Date: 2024-05-06 03:18 am (UTC)You drew three cards this week.
For the You position, you drew Saille or Sensitivity well-dignified. Others may be moody, but you are keen to it and adjust gracefully. Knowing what to say at the right time is a useful art and you have more skill than usual at it. This is a good week to journal about what was said, why, where, and how and the successes brought and trouble avoided because of it.
For the Situation, you drew Fearn or Bridge ill-dignified. It is tempting to throw out the baby with the bathwater when things don't go your way, when they look tense, or when you are called to trust someone's judgement. Be patient and do your best to save the situation from the dumpster fire it wants to become. You can do this by defining (in your own head) what you need and sticking to that no matter what transpires.
For the Outcome, you drew Gort or Perseverance well-dignified. You have your own and others' best interests in mind and you act accordingly. The causes you choose to champion are worthwhile. It is clear that you've got the long haul in mind -- things may not always be easy, but you are ready for whatever is being thrown at you.

Date: 2024-05-06 03:29 am (UTC)You drew three cards this week.
For the You card, you drew Beith or Beginnings well-dignified. Overall, this card shows that you are moving with the spirit and that you have omitted what is superfluous, which means you have a much better chance at getting what you want. By drawing careful limits and knowing your ideal, you have a much better shot at achieving it.
For the Situation, you drew Tinne or Defense ill-dignified -- yes, this is a danger card in the Ogham. The Ogham must realize what you are up to. I am going to recommend praying to Artemis, or if you don't do that (Christianity) then pray to the Virgin Mary to help you conceive safely.
For the Outcome, the Ogham give Duir or Gifts well-dignified. The flow of gifts both towards you and from you is at an equilibrium, and this is an auspicious state to be in. The more generous you are from the heart, the more gifts will be returned to you by the power of seven. Since you are trying to conceive, sending out excessive gift energy in the form of sharing, kindness, and benevolence is especially recommended right now as it will bring in the spirit of conception of a gifted child.
