kimberlysteele | Ogham Readings on Saturdays

I am happy to read your Ogham free of charge -- that's how I hone my divination skills. 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

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. I cannot answer health questions. If you have a question about health or another sensitive, private matter, provide a bunch of non-identifying information and the Ogham will be able to figure it out even if I don't. I'm serious... the Ogham actually tend to "know" things without me being privy to what is going on.

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 from Saturday, June 21, 2025 - Friday, July 11, 2025.

I take reading requests from whenever this post goes up on Friday night until 8pm US Central Time Saturday.

Hi Kimberly! How’s the next month looking?

From:

Hi Eyvind,

You drew three cards for the next month.

For the You card, you drew Gort or Perseverance ill-dignified. Beware impatience and the tendency to economize or rush. Some things are going to either take time, be expensive, or both and you'll have to be gracious about it. Matters of dissonance require brutal self-honesty and discursive meditation. Always know what it is to cut your losses and move on -- sometimes this is a necessarily evil and most times it is not.

For the Situation, you drew Fearn or Bridge well-dignified. By keeping a cool head and reserving judgement, you are escaping a whole sea of drama and problems. You probably don't even realize how much you've escaped and my Ogham suggest that you give it some thought. By treating others fairly, you gain fair opportunities for yourself and since a rising tide lifts all boats, those around you benefit as well.

For the Outcome, you drew Phagos or Teaching well-dignified. You are good at what you do and you have great will power when you apply yourself. Expertise comes to you from the right place at the right time -- keep an eye out for synchronicity. Whenever this card comes up, it is a warning not to waste words on fools or on people who are temporarily acting like fools.

Good morning Kimberly,

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

From:

kimberlysteele

Hi Ighy,

You drew three cards this week.

For the You position, you drew Onn or Community ill-dignified. Your general group of semi-strangers -- co-workers, people on the street, extended family, neighbors -- behaves badly and you will have to put up with the annoyance. This is also a card of not feeling you fit in and being forced to make do with irritating and awkward people.

For the Situation, you drew Huath or Obstacles ill-dignified. Huath, especially in this dignity, is a danger card in my Ogham. You are given my usual warning about risk. Steer clear of it this month. Other than that, this talks about mojo being down. Since this card is Martial, I recommend paying attention to getting physical movement and by showing a great deal of diligence when it comes to daily and long term tasks. These things are favorable to Mars/Ares and might earn his assistance.

For the Outcome, you drew Uilleand or Generosity well-dignified. The less parsimonious you become, the more you will have. I know this sounds completely counterintuitive. The reason for this is because parsimonious, stingy people believe they can control the flow of goods and wealth via owning or not owning the goods and wealth on the physical plane, but this is not how it works. The more you perceive what you have as being good, the better it will become because your perception is not a material phenomenon. It is more subtle, and that is why it trickles down to the physical brain as true wealth. All true wealth is perception.

Good morning, Kimberly!

What is up this week?

With thanks and blessings,

Hi Heloise,

You drew three cards, all ill-dignified. As much as that might seem ominous, believe me, I am more frightened of all well-dignified readings, because becoming too complacent is a real danger.

For the You position, you drew Ur or Intimacy. A loved one behaves like an ass, and/or you are not on your best behavior. Hopefully you can nip this in the bud because of this warning. It is all too easy to feel taken for granted while you are taking someone else for granted! Fight to recognize the good because fixating on the negative will feel much easier and more tempting.

For the Situation, you drew Oír or Epiphany. Don't let any setback run away with you because negativity will dominate the scene if you allow it. This card can also show up when there is a realization you should have but are avoiding.

For the Outcome, you drew Tinne or Defense. Tinne is one of my Ogham's danger cards, especially in this dignity, so be on your guard for the week. Other than that, Tinne can represent being overcautious and perfectionist. If you catch yourself obsessing over details, reading ingredients until you are crosseyed, or staying up late with anxiety about the future, remember that this sort of nitpicking is not the behavior of a grateful person. Consciously replace worry with gratitude and your life will be much brighter and sweeter for it.

Hi Kimberly,

This week I have my usual question: What's up for me and my family?

But also, a quick question about Option A: Have we waited too long and missed our chance? (In general, we have done everything we could toward Option D, and continue watching for opportunities to do more; but for A I've hesitated. Been really excited about the possibility, so kept worrying about the best way to do it...so now I wonder.)

Thanks!

Hi PW,

It's yet another all-ill-dignified reading. Again, I don't take these as bad omens, they are just pointing out weak spots ahead of time in a way that can be harder to see with well-dignified cards.

For the You card, you drew Ngetal or Hygiene. This is one of my Ogham's danger cards, so I utter my usual warning, especially where health is concerned. If in doubt, opt out or stay home. This is likely the Ogham telling you that you as Mom need to do some radical self-care. When others are depending on you and money is tight, it can seem impossible but you will have to force it because your well-being is at stake.

For the Situation, you drew Ioho or Grace. There are the daily things we must let go of and the larger life things. This may be a mixture of both. Release what is past its prime. If it is an object or a place, thank it for its gifts and put it in the hands of the Divine. If it is more personal or soul related, look deeply into it via discursive meditation and pray for guidance. This is also yet another card telling you that you need more rest, so there's that. Lastly, it is a card that talks about a need to be honest about death and dying.

For the Outcome, you drew Ruis or Regret. There's no use crying over spilled milk. S**t happens. If it was your mea culpa and you're not proud of it, well, that's why you don't do that anymore. If it was someone else's mea culpa, to err is human and to forgive is divine.

As for Option A, they give Muin or Harvest ill-dignified. They think it isn't too late, and that there still may be a shot at Option A. But the ill-dignified nature of the card makes me think that waiting even longer might be best of all until a new set of options becomes available.

Hi Kimberly, I've met with what could be a significant opportunity with major possible rewards but also significant risks. What do the Ogham think of my present situation with regards to these factors? Thanks.

From:

kimberlysteele

Hmmm,

My Ogham generally like this opportunity for you.

For the You position, they give Beith or Intention well-dignified. The rewards are worth the risks and the energy you'll devote to making this happen and seeing it through. It will be important to keep your focus and your eyes on the prize -- life likes to get in the way.

For the Situation, you drew Nuin or Communication ill-dignified. There will be snafus and setbacks and your perseverance and diligence will be tested. It won't always go smoothly or according to plan and you will have to be nimble and quick to adapt.

For the Outcome, you drew Duir or Gifts well-dignified. This opportunity makes the best of your unique skills and gifts and helps you to develop on a trajectory that is in line with what your higher self wants for you.

Hi Kimberly,

I'm thinking of returning to school for subject H. Any insights from the Ogham?

Thank you for your time.

From:

kimberlysteele

My Ogham generally like it.

For the You position, you drew Eadha or Limits well-dignified. You are realistic in your expectations and plans. You are much better prepared for school than you were previously. You'll get a great deal out of your studies because you are a better student now.

For the Situation, you drew Ngetal or Hygiene ill-dignified. If you return to school, you need to have good boundaries between school and regular life and you need to prioritize your health, because it will take its toll on you physically.

For the Outcome, you drew Luis or Protection well-dignified. This subject is in line with what your higher self and Holy Guardian Angel both want for you in this incarnation.

From: (Anonymous)

Thank you, Kimberly. Wow! I am indeed much better prepared for school now, and I would 100% need to work on my boundaries. I get easily overwhelmed!

You're welcome! Glad the Ogham could help.

Hello Kimberly,

My employer will not let go of any of its employees this school year, but they will not replace anyone lost due to retirements, termination, etc. Other school districts nearby seem to be having similar problems with finances.

What do your Ogham think about my line of work (teaching) in general for the next five years or so?

Thanks Kimberly!

Hi ELD,

Well, this is interesting. The Ogham are giving all well-dignified cards. This isn't to say it will be a cakewalk... it probably won't. However, you are likely to come out on top and any challenges you encounter you will be able to turn to your advantage.

For the You position, you drew Quert or Delight. This shows you hitting your stride with teaching, balancing business with recreation in perfect proportions, and finding your vibe. It also shows you making quality connections with students, with other professionals, and in your personal life.

For the Situation, you drew Saille or Sensitivity. No matter what is thrown at you, you are going to move with the times and adapt where appropriate. Are you doing a daily banishing ritual? This card seems to point to esoteric practices. Your district will make the appropriate decisions and will likely do much better than other ones because of those decisions.

For the Outcome, you drew Nuin or Communication. This shows help from afar or from strangers, good use of technology, and respect for faculty as well as the learning process. If the school manages to keep learning as its number one priority (too many schools prioritize wokeness or covering up for their worst employees) it will all be fine.

From:

ennobled_little_day

Oh, wow!

I live in a tiny city in the Midwest, where there appears to be a good relationship between the district, the teachers, and the community at large. I can see our district weathering some rough storms successfully, if it came to that.

As for esoteric practices, yes. I study material from a Rosicrucian order. I've been doing so for the last couple of years.

Thanks to you and your Ogham for the reading.
