kimberlysteeleSubmit your question or request for a general "what's up this week" reading and I will be happy to oblige! I read between the time I post on Sunday night with a deadline of 8pm Monday night.
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!
Readings are closed for the week of December 6 but please feel free to comment on existing readings. Please join me next week for more free Ogham readings!

Thank you, Rohini

Date: 2021-12-06 10:11 am (UTC)It’s my understanding that most people just ask you, “What's up for me this week?”
I don’t know if this makes an appreciable difference in the reading, but I would like to ask, “What do I need to know, for this week or in general?” I liked how a previous inquirer asked you for a reading using those words.
For some context, my emotional brain doesn’t yet accept that the world I used to live in pre-Covid is over.
Thanks,
E.
P.S.
I have difficulty expressing my gratitude in a timely manner, which often comes across as taking things for granted…which I unfortunately do too often.
So I would like to express my appreciation for your suggestions from last week about taking up a course of occult study in order to deal with my personal issues.
I have not heard of the Path of the Lonely Ones before.
And the Octagon Society has been on my to-do list for a while, as I also read JMG’s Dreamwidth entries; I am still on Preliminary Lesson 1—The Law of Blame.
P.P.S.
Two weeks ago, for my reading, you had mentioned your post The Power of "I Don't Do That Anymore".
I could have sworn I had read that a while ago, but clearly I needed a reminder, and the universe provided via you.
It was very timely, as I’ve focused too much on repentance without also attending to responsibility; it’s much easier for me to beat myself up, rather than admit I chose to _____.
I have to quit pretending that someone else made those decisions that I regret.
So thank you again.
This is a heavy one

I have a question for which the answer will span a time-horizon that is longer than the current week, if that is possible.
How do I get out of the current mess I find myself in with regard to finding a stable employment? And what kind of work should look for?
reading question from alben
Date: 2021-12-06 04:23 pm (UTC)I've been wondering what your Ogham would have to say about any significance of the pathways of two solar eclipses over the continental US? The first one occurred on Aug 21, 2017, and the second will occur on Apr 8, 2024. Juxtaposed, the lines form an X, with its cross point at Carbondale, IL. I don't know if anyone else has noticed this interesting detail, but I haven't seen anyone mention it in any of the blogs I read. Thanks!

Date: 2021-12-06 05:59 pm (UTC)I have two questions this week. First, will additional family members follow after me if I move to the south? Second, is there something karmically involved with the saga of my knee?
As always thank you very much for this.

Given that I'm expecting a topsy turvey financial market next year, with a lot of painful inflation to boot, I've allocated some of my cash over into cryptocurrencies as a hedge.
Q- Did I make a good investment?

Date: 2021-12-06 09:24 pm (UTC)This week looks to be a bit of a doozy. My Ogham give you three ill-dignified cards.
For the You position, they give Ngetal or Hygiene ill-dignified. This one isn't a surprise to see during flu season. My Ogham are giving you the heads up to be watchful of your health, to get some mild exercise on a daily basis and to eat well so you don't catch the current bug du jour.
For the Middle or Situation, they give you Ailm or Transcendence ill-dignified. You may end up being depressed this week or you may be feel like you are being dragged down by other people. Also beware of false transcendence and toxic positivity in yourself and others. People in our society are fond of using positivity as an escape hatch for thinking about the problems at hand, especially (but nowhere near limited to) when those problems come from within.
For the Outcome, you got Straif or Resilience ill-dignified. Either you are going to feel ill-prepared mentally, physically, or spiritually to meet the challenges of this week or you will over-prepare/ get awfully paranoid about the future. Do your best to be grateful for the present moment and to acknowledge the spirit of place this week in order to restore balance.

Date: 2021-12-06 09:33 pm (UTC)The Ogham give you three cards this week.
For the You position, you got Eadha or Limits well-dignified. You do an admirable job of working within your limits this week, which is no easy feat in the current scheme of things where everyone is hell-bent on living out Kunstler's adage "everything goes and nothing matters." The Ogham hope you can see the benefits of limits instead of feeling sad about the drawbacks.
For the Middle or Situation, you drew Muin or Harvest well-dignified. Something comes to fruition this week for you or for someone close to you. This could be as little as saying the right thing at the right time or it could be a more grand completion of karma.
For the Outcome, you got Beith or Beginnings/Intention ill-dignified. The Ogham warn about eclectic directions and intentions -- you have to determine what you actually have time and resources to do, no pie in the sky allowed. Too much energy in different directions can end up the same as treading water. They also warn of lousy intentions that are not well thought through as well as the opposite of too much energy: a potential lack of energy, the whole "my get up and go got up and went" vibe.

Date: 2021-12-06 09:42 pm (UTC)This week you drew three cards.
For the You position, you drew Ailm or Transcendence ill-dignified. This points to either not having enough Transcendence such as feeling depressed/low energy, being dragged down, or an imbalance of false transcendence in the "I'm OK, you're OK" insistence which is so common these days. Either way, be a realist: give yourself a break if you're feeling down, don't sink to the level of trolls and haters, and take a down-to-earth, impartial assessment of how good or bad you're doing this week.
For the Middle or Situation, you drew Koad or Confluence well-dignified. That which you have already put in place gets you through the troubles of this week. Since this is Situation, the Ogham may be referring to your state of thriftiness, your prioritization of human relationships, or another way in which you have built bridges instead of burning them in the past.
For the Outcome, you drew Onn or Community ill-dignified. You may feel ill at ease with your community, aware that you're not fitting in the way you wish you could. This often refers to feeling we have to be part of society but society keeps finding ways of excluding us and preventing us from our preferred lifestyle. It could also be referring to the community asking too much of you. Very rarely will it be referring to you asking too much of the community, but that can and does happen.

Re: Week 49
Date: 2021-12-06 10:13 pm (UTC)Thanks so much for the feedback. The Path of the Lonely Ones is a book by Manly P. Hall -- it's not a magical system, just a reference to the lonely nature of serious occult study. Keep in mind there are lots of forces that seek to keep you psychologically crippled and dependent, not the least of which are certain religions that exploit guilt. Most religions are astral pyramids that seek the widest possible base of converts in order to feed an insatiable few at the top. The corporate model is a similar kind of pyramid.
Glad the "I Don't Do That Anymore" essay helped.
For this week (and in general, as requested) you drew three cards.
For the You position, you drew Gort or Perseverance well-dignified. The Ogham say to focus on your strength, which is perseverance. Part of your psychological baggage is you worry about certain issues like a dog worries a bone. This part of your nature can actually be a good thing when you apply your steadfastness and analytical insights to discursive meditation practice or the occult study.
For the Situation, you got Mór or Sea Change ill-dignified. The Ogham are suggesting that the area in which you live is either bad for you personally or bad overall. Nothing you can do can change that, so if you are determined to stay, you should brace yourself for overall troubles.
For the Outcome, you got Uilleand or Generosity ill-dignified. Uilleand indicates that you might be overdoing a display of affection for someone else and coming across as insecure or that someone might be overdoing it with you out of their own need to please. To rectify the imbalance, step back if you're the one that's overly lavish with your affection. If you're the target, be gracious but learn to gently decline the gifts you're given, and if the giver absolutely insists, pay it forward by using your privilege to help someone who needs it.

Date: 2021-12-06 10:32 pm (UTC)I swear my 2nd Saturn return was early... this year was hard on me. Not nearly as bad as my first Saturn return though when I almost died!
My Ogham say that it will be a mixed bag for you.
For the You position, they give you Huath or Obstacles ill-dignified. What this means is that you'll be faced with an extreme on the lop-sides of potential imbalance. They warn that you will be prone to attempting to force an outcome that isn't meant to be or that you will back down too easily from a challenge that presents itself as insurmountable.
For the Situation, they give you Mór or Sea Change well-dignified. No matter what you do, your environment and milieu improves and that is a tide that will rise with you in it.
For the Outcome, they give you Ngetal or Hygiene ill-dignified. Because this is karma, they are saying that the unhealthy choices you make now will come back to bite very hard in your SSR. Karma is cause and effect. You can change the outcome by making healthier choices now.
