Ogham Readings on Mondays

[kimberlysteele]

Submit 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!

Update:

On Sunday, my elderly parents both got their second dose of the Moderna vaccine.

On Monday, I asked you about my week, my path and Thor. Your Ogham predicted a bad week and suggested prayers to Thor, which I began on Tuesday.

Also on Monday (I later learned), my parents had the expected "day of feeling awful." But while my dad then began feeling better, my mom kept feeling worse. She became more and more confused, and had difficulty with motor planning.

On Thursday, my mom fell. She was so weak that two friends, a neighbor, and my dad working together couldn't get her off the floor and they had to call the paramedics. No injuries from the fall though.

On Friday she remained confused. I thought it was interesting that when we put her symptoms, and that she's had the Moderna vaccine, into WebMD, possibility #4 was the rare type of blood clot (CVST) that so far is associated only with the AstraZeneca (and, I saw in one article, also maybe the Pfizer) vaccine. I wouldn't be surprised if it's really just associated with the spike protein in general. Dad and I were very concerned, but she refused to go to the ER to get checked out. (Maybe she was right since vaccine-related CVST seems to be worsened by the heparin treatment they seem to normally use on clots.)

She has since seemed to improve, but planned to see the doctor today.

It's interesting that her fall happened on Thor's day.

My parents and I have drifted apart politically since 2010 or so. I haven't tried very hard to dissuade them from things like the vaccine. I have been unsure what I want to do myself, never mind what I think they should do! In the end people have their bodily autonomy...I don't know. I'll have to keep thinking about this.

I have kept up the prayer and it has continued to tend to result in dizziness.

So, my question:

What's up this week?

I'm so sorry you're going through this. It must be awful. Thank you for the feedback on last week's reading.

For this week, they give me three cards.

For the first position, they give me Tinne (Eastern Cedar) or Defense. This is to say that your prayers are working and they are acting to defend you... unfortunately, the karma of others, otherwise known as the outcome of their decisions, isn't something you can control.

For the middle position, or the Situation that often refers to other people, they give me Huath well-dignified. Huath means Obstacles, specifically obstacles of the type you cannot evade. The only way out is through.

For the final position, they give me Muin or Harvest ill-dignified. This points to a bad harvest or a seed that is not yet developed. When ill-dignified, it can indicate an overreaction of being too stringent: meaning you try to control all the anxieties in your life by cutting out every pleasure and disciplining yourself too much, and/or you drown your sorrows with an excess of whatever floats your cork: alcohol, shopping, eating. They're essentially suggesting you blow off some steam this week, but exercise moderation. Happy medium of relaxation for the win!

When I got last week's reading I thought, "My life is so uneventful, how could this possibly be a bad week?" Hah.

My mom was feeling better today, so she called the doctor to let her know the situation but didn't feel the need to be seen. Here's hoping she continues to improve.

Anyway thanks!

I hope she improves as well. I would be terrified for my parents if they got any one of the vaccines. Be blessed and I hope your mom is blessed.
