kimberlysteeleSubmit your question or request for a general "what's up this week" reading and I will be happy to oblige!
I am happy to read your Ogham free of charge -- that's how I hone my divination skills -- but if you want to donate for it, I'll happily buy myself a book, a snack, or a cup of tea while on the town. Please only donate if you can absolutely afford it. I've been there. Your prayers for my continued success are welcome whether you donate or not!

It's going to be tough going
Date: 2021-02-15 09:08 pm (UTC)B) My Ogham say that cutting ties with your family will not be an easy road, however, they do say a major karmic lesson would be learned by taking that route.
They give me three cards. The You card came up as Straif (Blackthorn) or Strife ill-dignified. It will be an uphill battle as you learn to be poorer and navigate without their help. You will often feel too vulnerable to continue. There is also the distinct chance they will fight your decision by doing dramatic stuff like hiring a private detective to spy on you or by showing up at your door.
For the Situation card, they give me Coll (Hazelnut) or Wisdom ill-dignified. This to me symbolizes laziness that is not you but affects you nonetheless -- most likely their laziness as they seek easy answers where there are none.
For the final position, Karma or the Lesson, it's Uilleand (Honeysuckle) or Generosity. The hardest thing that you will have to learn is how to be generous to a fault. Parsimony can be captivating because it gives us the false sense of security that we are "saving" money. But by not paying wealth forward and by not realizing one's own privileges, it's very easy to fall into the trap of feeling too poor to pay attention to your gifts. Giving more than you think you can afford to those who are less fortunate than you are, for instance, donating grocery money to a family where the breadwinner suffered an accident and cannot work or to a vetted charity that genuinely helps homeless people, sublimates the gift and will bring it back to you seven times or more. Now it's up in the air whether it will multiply by seven in the form of your own mental/emotional prosperity or in actual material wealth or both, but from what I can tell it is one of the most reliable phenomenon in the unseen world. The more your spirit embodies generosity, the more the rewards will multiply.

Date: 2021-02-15 11:55 pm (UTC)For the You position, they give me Fearn (Alder) or Guidance/Bridge ill-dignified. This means that it will feel as if you are getting nowhere fast and that you'll have the common tendency to either over-trust or mistrust a source of knowledge. Be ready to separate the wheat from the chaff: don't glorify or kill the messenger; instead, examine the message itself with a clear and dispassionate eye.
For the Situation position, they give me Mór or Change. There are big changes going on for you right now underneath the surface.
In the Karma or Lesson position, they give me Ioho (Yew) or Grace ill-dignified. If I remember correctly, this isn't the first time you've gotten this card in one of my Ogham readings. Ioho is talking about the lack of Grace, but now it's in the Lesson position. I think this speaks of the difficulty of walking away from all you've ever known as well as your grace-deficient family. It's going to take extraordinary grace to deal with them, even if dealing with them means never speaking to them again in this incarnation.
