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
-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 October 23 - November 6.
My next planned break is from October 23 - November 6.
I take reading requests from whenever this post goes up on Friday night until 8pm US Central Time Saturday.

Thanks.

Date: 2025-10-11 11:58 pm (UTC)You drew three cards for next week. For the You card, you drew Coll or Wisdom ill-dignified. You'll want to keep a tight leash on your mouth -- it's OK to speak but do not allow it to run. There may be frustration with that which you cannot know at this time, or temporary unwillingness to the work that leads to gnosis.
For the Situation, you drew Uilleand or Generosity ill-dignified. The remedy for privilege is not to renege upon those privileges and don a hair shirt while taking up habits of self-flagellation. Instead, sublimate what you have been given by using your unique gifts to their fullest potential in a way the underprivileged cannot.
For the Outcome, you drew Fearn or Bridge well-dignified. This shows fairness in dealing with others, giving certain ones the rope they need to hang themselves and other ones the benefit of the doubt. By keeping your own bridges open, you tell the higher powers that it is OK to provide you with future pathways.

Date: 2025-10-12 12:04 am (UTC)My Ogham give you three cards. They say it will be mostly good.
For the You card, they give Quert or Delight ill-dignified. It is tempting to either to spend too much or too little -- though you should not overdo it, you should certainly not get too uptight and be afraid of living. Set budgets for time, energy, and money, and know your limits. Moderation is key.
For the Situation, you drew Oir or Epiphany well-dignified. This is something that needs to happen one way or another. It provides an experience one or more of you need to have.
For the Outcome, you drew Ruis or Regret well-dignified. You will not regret 10/21/2025, and the best way of going forward is to look at similar events that either went well or badly and reflect upon what happened and why it happened.
Oy.
Date: 2025-10-11 02:47 pm (UTC)My fallback is to continue to “chop wood, carry water” since that is what’s in front of me and all that I can control is myself and my actions.
Can I have a three card reading for this week, focused on what is the priority for this crazy time?

Re: Oy.
Date: 2025-10-12 12:24 am (UTC)Interesting.
You drew three cards this week.
For the You position, you drew Ngetal or Hygiene well-dignified. My Ogham think you've done enough spiritual work (and continue to do so) and that you will be fine no matter what happens, because you know your boundaries and your limits better than most.
For the Situation, they give Ur or Intimacy well-dignified. You have strong, close relationships and you also know yourself well, and that makes you resilient and able to handle economic craziness if it goes down.
For the Outcome, you drew Saille or Sensitivity ill-dignified. You probably already knew the Ogham were going to say that worrying about this is not worth your time. Even during the height of the Black Death and its aftermath, some pockets of Europe were serenely unaffected and prosperous. Worrying makes you oversensitive and dulled at the same time, so every time you are tempted to worry, consciously try to supplant the worry with gratitude.

Date: 2025-10-12 12:26 am (UTC)You're welcome! Hmmm, no, my Ogham don't like this one at the moment. They give Muin or Harvest ill-dignified meaning that not much would come of it or that it is the wrong time for this one to hit. That said, if it is nagging you, do NOT give it up, just bring it back to the drawing board and think of all the ways you are going to promote it.

What would the outcome be if I went to school for subject F?
Thank you for your time.
no subject
Date: 2025-10-12 12:44 am (UTC)Unfortunately, my Ogham do not like this at all for you. It may be one of those things you are good at, but it will be the thief of time, energy, and money, stealing lifeforce away from what you were truly meant to do.
All three cards were ill-dignified.
For the You position, they give Eadha or Limits ill-dignified. This is too expensive, too time consuming, and you won't develop the skills you need in order to achieve what you want with the schooling.
For the Situation, you drew Luis or Protection ill-dignified. This one is a danger card, and it could mean actual physical danger, but not necessarily. It means that this puts you in questionable situations and wastes your energy/money in a way that leaves you vulnerable.
For the Outcome, you drew Ailm or Transcendence ill-dignified. There are not any good workarounds for this and the Ogham suggest avoiding schooling where this is concerned entirely. As you know, I went to school for music back in the day, but if I were 18 years old now, going to the very same music school would be a bad idea because it is more expensive now and most of my education could be achieved online or with a bit of community college. That's not to say I should not study music, it's just that formal schooling would be a mistake for someone in a similar boat in 2025.
How last week went & new reading
Date: 2025-10-11 03:53 pm (UTC)I think that explains last week's Situation (Ngetal ill-dignified) and Outcome (Tinne well-dignified) cards. An ill-dignified defense would have been leaving him to his own devices or shutting him in a crate.
The Duir well-dignified card apparently referred to a blog post I came across that gave me insight into where I probably am in the cycle of incarnation. Thank you for getting me to pay attention!
What do the cards tell me I should know for this week?
Thanks,
Patrick

Date: 2025-10-12 12:51 am (UTC)Ay yi yi... Pets and the stress they put us through! Poor puppy. I hope he heals well.
You drew three cards this week.
For the You position, you drew Quert or Delight well-dignified. You've got healthy habits this week, and one of these is indulging a little bit without going overboard. The god of health, Apollo, said only two things as words to live by, and one of these was "Everything in moderation".
For the Situation, you drew Huath or Obstacles ill-dignified. Huath is one of my Ogham's danger cards, so be aware of risk, including physical risk, this week and take extra safety measures. Other than physical danger, this card talks about Martial force, and when ill-dignified, it means you've either got too much or too little. If you have too much, watch out for rushed decisions, inserting yourself where you are not needed, and wanting to take over. If it is too little, be careful of overexerting yourself, find time to rest, and unschedule yourself as much as possible in order to preserve your energy.
For the Outcome, you drew Ioho or Grace well-dignified. This is a week of letting go what is not meant to be, what no longer serves you, or what is passing out of your life. The Ogham predict you will be mature and level-headed about it.

Date: 2025-10-12 12:56 am (UTC)You drew three cards this week.
For the You card, you drew Onn or Community ill-dignified. The world of casual acquaintances, certain relatives, co-workers, townspeople, and not-close contacts is a bit exhausting and problematic this week. Be ready to exercise patience and forgiveness and keep in mind it often isn't personal when it comes from someone who does not actually know you.
For the Situation, you drew Saille or Sensitivity ill-dignified. Etheric starvation is the most common condition of our time and it can be a real bear. As the kids say, find time to "touch grass" so you can earth out excess emotionality and clarify the messages that are coming from your own subconscious.
For the Outcome, you drew Ruis or Regret well-dignified. The advantage of this not being your first rodeo is you can avoid making mistakes that you used to make on a regular basis. When the opportunity comes to step in it, take special note of how you manage avoid to end up with a shoe full of doo doo.

Date: 2025-10-11 06:55 pm (UTC)Sorry this is so long; it's a mix of feedback with the questions at the end, hope it makes sense.
We're in two groups the Ogham suggested would be good.
Feedback: The one that has always gotten positives from the Ogham (umbrella group (Muin well-dig) and both subgroups and we recently switched from one (Oir well-dig) to the other (Ur well-dig)) is going well and smoothly so far. I have been nervous and probably would have given up a while ago if it weren't for you and your Ogham, so: Thank you!
This question is about the other one.
The Ogham suggested we join in a certain way (Oir well-dig and when I asked more specifically, Duir well-dig), we did and the "new and interesting stuff to do" aspect is going great, but the social opportunities are lacking.
So now, the big group is trying to recruit one of us to be a leader for a new subgroup. They held a get-together for potential subgroup members which would've had the kids in one room and the adults in another and that's the one the Ogham said might be dangerous, even physically (Tinne ill-dig; we didn't go).
One possibility is that all this small-group stuff should just wait till daughter advances to the next level in the org (in a year or two).
Another possibility is that now is the time to join because now is when this little group is getting started, and trying to join the small group later on would be weird / harder.
I guess another is kind of in between: Just wait until we all feel ready, whether that's next week or next year or even later.
What do the Ogham think? (Not sure how to structure this question, whatever you think is best.)
Thanks again, and happy Halloween!

Date: 2025-10-12 01:25 am (UTC)Thanks for the feedback, I am delighted the Ogham helped!
For Choice A, making the small group stuff wait until your daughter advances in the org (1-2 years), the Ogham give Straif or Resilience ill-dignified. Overall, you cannot make this dependent on your daughter's advancement, but instead a careful weighing of benefits and risks to you and your family.
For Choice B, joining now, they give Tinne or Defense well-dignified, because my Ogham think you are correct, it may be hard to join one to two years down the road. It will work out if you get in "while the getting is good".
For Choice C, playing it by ear until you feel the moment is right, my Ogham like this very much. They give Ngetal or Health well-dignified, which means you truly do have all the time you need. I would suggest praying about this and then being a very good listener when it comes to fielding the messages, understanding your own biases enough to get a clear message. That means plenty of discursive meditation, of course.
Truth
Date: 2025-10-11 07:22 pm (UTC)I hope your day is going well.
Please ask Ogham for me, Can I trust that what BD is saying is true and will come to pass?
All of it or just some of it.
Maybe he is just confused, but i don’t think so.
Eve
Re: Truth
Date: 2025-10-12 01:32 am (UTC)My Ogham say that what BD says is true... in some aspect. They give Beith or Intention well-dignified, meaning that BD is unified in will and that in BD's corner of the Universe, it is extremely true. This does not mean it is true for all. Truth is like beauty, it hides and it lies. It becomes fractals of itself.
For if it will come to pass, they say No, it will not, at least not exactly the way BD thinks it will. They give Nuin or Communication ill-dignified, which means BD is playing the astral equivalent of the telephone game. BD is getting information from a source, but that source has been passed and filtered through so many other forces, it is coming out shredded and distorted.
When I ask "Is BD confused?" they say No. They give Muin or Harvest ill-dignified, and again I believe this applies to the telephone game I mentioned in the previous card. The source information is true enough but it is being badly fractaled and filtered.

Date: 2025-10-11 08:08 pm (UTC)a) I am about to leave Canada to move into the US. I am a dual citizen, and am considering, once I settle down, renouncing the Canadian citizenship. How do your ogham feel about that?
b) I recently found a way to free a lot more time for my writing, and so I now have a couple books at various stages of writing. I'm looking at publishers, and also at when to submit the manuscripts. Do your ogham like my idea for how to choose the date for submitting these manuscripts?
no subject
Date: 2025-10-12 01:38 am (UTC)My Ogham think it will be fine to renounce your dual citizenship once the rubble stops bouncing from your big move. They give Quert or Delight well-dignified, meaning that you are going to be embraced by the land spirits of your new home (I suggest going out and finding some local trees in your new neighborhood, sitting with your back to them, and introducing yourself) and it will be reason for quiet celebration.
For your idea of how to choose the date, they aren't so keen. They give Ailm or Transcendence ill-dignified, meaning that way is likely to produce false positives or negatives.

You're welcome.
This Week?
Date: 2025-10-11 09:33 pm (UTC)Thank you for these readings, they are helping me through a rough patch. I want you to know that your Ogham last week was spot on. Based on my recent history my new motto is "talk less, love more"
What does this week hold for me?
Sending you so much gratitude for your perspective and readings.
Rooby
Re: This Week?
Date: 2025-10-12 01:48 am (UTC)For this week, the Ogham give you three cards.
For the You card, they provide Muin or Harvest ill-dignified. This is a very good week to look at your worst habits, and that does not necessarily mean physical habits such as smoking, eating junk, or picking at your skin, but it could. As I was saying to Annette, worrying is a bad habit that should be replaced with gratitude at specific instances, for instance, when I start worrying that my car might die in the next few years, instead I need to thank my car for being so amazingly trouble free for the last 21 years!
For the Situation, they provide Eadha or Limits well-dignified. Moderation is the key to happiness in life, and that means putting limits on your employer (even if that is yourself), your time, your habits, and all else that is about you or wanders into your sphere. This is an excellent week to look at where you've successfully set personal limits and to examine the benefits you have gotten from them. For instance, I am not drinking alcohol lately because I believe my mom may have gotten a severe migraine from when we both drank too much wine on movie night a year ago, and since I never drank much to begin with, this has been a net win for me and my mom. I may have a glass of wine or two someday, but for now, alcohol is such a nothingburger to me, I have decided to leave it instead of taking it.
For the Outcome, you drew Gort or Perseverance well-dignified. Slow and steady wins the race, and you are proving it. Your level head is extremely needed by everyone within close proximity to you, and you are showing a kind of grit that is sorely needed in this world.
For the Outco
no subject
Date: 2025-10-11 09:47 pm (UTC)To review: I went into this week knowing it was going to be heavy going with an attitude of anything not work related of "Do I need this?, no.". I churned away without much traction myself, but for others who kept things going.
To ask: What is it that I need to know this week, according to the Ogham?
no subject
Date: 2025-10-12 01:54 am (UTC)Thanks for the feedback!
You drew three cards this week.
For the You position, you drew Phagos or Teaching ill-dignified. You may have to suffer a fool this week, and hopefully it's not your own foolishness you are suffering! This is a week to enforce responsibility, patience, and diligence within yourself, because you are certainly not going to find an excess of those virtues anywhere else.
For the Situation, you drew Mór or Sea well-dignified. This week offers a bird's eye view of the overall trends in your life and possibly beyond, so take advantage of it by meditating on the snapshot being offered here. The collective astral (which is usually a massive dumpster fire) clears for a brief moment, at least in your precinct.
For the Outcome, you drew Huath or Obstacles ill-dignified. This is one of my Ogham's danger cards, especially in this dignity, so be aware and take many precautions. Other than that, it means mojo is either excessive or lacking. If mojo or Martial force/etheric power is strong like bull, it's good in its way but it can also lead to rash decisions, inserting yourself where you don't belong, or stepping in it. If it is lacking, it can mean you feel indecisive, rushed, or forced to act when you are confused and do not know what to do.
