You wrote, "The celebratory outcome of Quert or Delight my Ogham predicted was simply wrong in my opinion. Quert was not the mood of late October or any other month in this reading for the unvaxxed."
It's hard to read the mood of an atomized group being targeted by those in power. So many revolutions (the real kind, not the color kind) crash over their unsuspecting betters with a ferocity that can only come about after a prolonged marinating process. The French, Russian, and Algerian revolutions come to mind. At some point in the endless repression, a shift occurs whereby the atomized group finally realizes it is actually the deafening majority. It's a Delightful moment — very Querty.
Here in the US, late October was when the hiarious riffing on "Let's Go Brandon" finally shattered through the PMC's false confidence and made them all dramatically clutch their pearls. I have felt a mood of jubilant, if still secretive, mockery amidst the Deplorables ever since. We all seem to finally know for certain that we're not in the minority in noticing that our emperors have not a shred of clothing on. It's pretty Delightful to experience, in my opinion.
Certainly, some other countries are going full police-state concentration camps, but only because their dissident populations were waking up, protesting, and making a mockery of their overlords' endless draconian edicts. The collapse of an archaic worldview will always be a messy affair. After a lifetime of having to map all of my decisions to the fraught terrain of this collapsing decadence, I kind of find this rediscovery of the fool's mockery and mirth to be Delightful.
Delight will in no way reduce the coming death toll, but fearing it has already proven an infinitely worse coping mechanism. "Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration." We're about to find out just how prescient Frank Herbert actually was...
