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!

Date: 2022-01-03 01:47 am (UTC)My Ogham think you have a year where plenty goes south but you end up making the best out of it.
For the You position, you drew Saille or Sensitivity well-dignified. This will be a year where you get down to business on the important task of determining what (who) you do and don't love. It's also a year where you work on making yourself more lovable. The Ogham point to your success where this is concerned.
For the Situation, you drew Huath or Obstacles, well-dignified. This points to some tough decisions you will have to make, but you will make the right choices and your improvement of character will become your destiny.
For the Karma or Outcome, you drew Mór or Sea Change, ill-dignified. Your milieu and that which you cannot control is taking a turn for the worse. You should probably consider relocating or making another sort of dramatic life change, and of course that isn't going to be fun or easy.

Date: 2022-01-03 01:54 am (UTC)Yeah, I figured I would get a leg up on it this week.
For the You card, you got Koad or Confluence well-dignified. Overall, things go your way this week, and this is influenced partially by your good attitude and also by an upturn in your luck.
For the Situation, you got Uilleand or Generosity well-dignified. You keep an open heart and mind this week and you see the rewards of this in instant karma. Instant karma isn't always bad!
For the Outcome, you got Ioho or Grace ill-dignified, which means it will be hard to let go of something who was not meant for you this week. When ill-dignified, Ioho can also indicate that you are having the opposite form of imbalance, meaning you are allowing yourself to be pushed around. I tend to have that issue, and whenever I am too nice and I don't make a pest of myself by speaking up, it comes back around to bite me later. I'm slowly learning to speak my mind and hold my ground, like a sand wall that has finally hardened into stone facing a storm.
This year
Date: 2022-01-02 10:30 am (UTC)Blessings to you and thanks to your Ogham. May I ask for a general overview of 2022 please for me? Just the bird's eye view.
Many thanks

Re: This year
Date: 2022-01-03 02:06 am (UTC)For 2022, you drew three cards.
For the You position, you drew Duir or Gifts well-dignified. You will give and receive in 2022 and it will be balanced. I wouldn't expect to become independently wealthy in the next year, but overall you will find your generosity always returns to you and you will be able to make ends meet just fine. 2022 will also bring some cool opportunities and warm connections.
For the Situation, you drew Ur or Intimacy well-dignified. If you have a mate, that bond will stay strong this year. Whether or not you have a mate, this card shows the skill of being able to keep a secret. You learn when not to divulge unnecessary information out of insecurity or wanting people to like you.
For the Outcome, you drew Saille or Sensitivity ill-dignified. There may be a tendency to overcrowd your life by going in too many directions at once. I have this problem of eclecticism -- do you know any other singing Druid cat-ladies who make sushi? There also may be the risk of not being sensitive enough, meaning having a closed mind and a selfish streak due to a puffy ego.

Date: 2022-01-03 02:57 am (UTC)This week the Ogham give you three cards.
For the You position, they give you Gort or Perseverance ill-dignified. This week you feel strained. It's stressful right now and people in your inner circle may not be helping that or they may even be the direct cause. There is also the chance of Perseverance in excess, otherwise known as the psychology of previous investment, or pouring too much time and energy into what no longer makes sense.
For the Situation, you drew Ioho or Grace well-dignified. You defer gracefully this week and you pass the torch in an appropriate way that opens the gate of good opportunities in the future.
For the Outcome, you drew Huath or Obstacles well-dignified. You may face some sticky situations or serious decisions this week, but you will face them with well-aimed force and you'll choose the best way forward.

Date: 2022-01-03 03:42 am (UTC)This week you drew three cards.
For the first in the You position, you drew Gort or Perseverance ill-dignified. This week may end up wearing your patience very thin or it could be difficult in some other way. For me, Gort ill-dig usually indicates meagerness in my bank accounts. It could also be talking about the psychology of previous investment -- hammering away because it is a habit to do so but not getting a return on investment.
For the Situation, you drew Oír or Epiphany well-dignified. You or someone near and dear to you will have a lightning-bolt realization. Though it is well-dignified, epiphanies can be harsh and painful. Epiphanies are almost always good for you though, at least the way my Ogham interprets them. They can give you clues about how to proceed in difficult situations and difficult times.
For the Outcome, you drew Duir or Gifts ill-dignified. There really is no bad side to Duir. I drew it recently and it was basically pointing out the need for me to pay it forward, most likely in the form of some planetary charity. This can be financial or otherwise -- giving money is only a small fraction of the ways to be charitable. All the gifts you give from your heart will be returned by the power of seven or more. Those who give even when they cannot afford it are the richest of all because they are rich in spirit, just like the truly young are the young at heart.

Thanks and Happy New Year!

Re: Week 1
Date: 2022-01-03 04:16 am (UTC)This week you drew three cards.
For the You position, you drew Duir or Gifts well-dignified. You will find that the generosity you demonstrate and the generosity you receive are balanced this week. Nevertheless, it is not a bad idea to try to tip the balance by being exceedingly, compulsively generous. If you are able to act that way, you will find your gifts return to you in seven ways and at least seven forms.
For the Situation, you drew Ailm or Transcendence ill-dignified. Look out for some depression this week -- that is too little Transcendence energy at work. If you have the opposing imbalance which is just as bad, you'll or someone in your inner circle will suffer from false Transcendence. This can take the form of overconfidence, or a bitter denial of the issues you think you've got conquered but you don't. The best cure for this is (drumroll please) discursive meditation.
For the Outcome, you drew Mór or Sea Change well-dignified. This means that factors completely beyond your control will go better this week. Your environment will improve and like a rising tide lifts all ships, hopefully your luck will improve as well.
Hi again Kimberly,
Date: 2022-01-03 12:55 am (UTC)Thank you!
Re: Hi again Kimberly,
Date: 2022-01-04 03:47 am (UTC)This week should be on the up and up. You drew three cards, all well-dignified.
For the You card, you drew Ruis or Regret. You remember past mistakes enough this week not to repeat them. This will help you to grow as a person and to let go of what is not meant for you.
For the Situation, you drew Huath or Obstacles. There may be some conflicts this week, but you will find your internal compass is very much up to the challenge. Your energy is just feisty enough to strike a balance.
For the Outcome, you drew Nuin or Communication well-dignified. Good things come your way from the world of strangers. Nuin is also a technology card and talks about any kind of machine (including simple, everyday ones) that helps you out.

I am wondering what the Ogham says about moving my family to South Carolina, especially for my husband.
How will the move change our relationship with very important person SMK?
Thank you.
no subject
Date: 2022-01-04 03:51 am (UTC)For your general move to South Carolina, the Ogham give you Ioho or Grace well-dignified. This indicates it will go very well and that you will be able to leave behind both the troubles and the joys of your old location in the best way possible.
For your husband, it's also very good. He drew Ruis or Regret well-dignified, which says that he will be able to grow from the past and use his regrets constructively in the new location.
For the relationship with SMK, it's not as good. The Ogham provide Eadha or Limits ill-dignified, which means the limits of you living in South Carolina will impede your relationship with SMK.

Re: 2022
Date: 2022-01-04 03:59 am (UTC)For 2022, you drew three cards.
For the You position, you drew Nuin or Communication well-dignified. This shows good relationships with the world of strangers, so it could be talking about fame and recognition or just general help from afar.
For the Situation, you drew Ur or Intimacy well-dignified. All signs point to your relationship with your husband being harmonious in 2022. In general, your close relationships will become closer and better. This also speaks to the value of knowing how to keep a secret, which is the secret of close friendships.
For the Outcome, you drew Huath or Obstacles ill-dignified. This year you'll have to watch for two tendencies of imbalance: either the tendency to be too passive, too aggressive, or swings between both. Examples of being too passive: being too nice and getting roped into corners because of it, deferring to someone else for the sake of keeping the peace and then having to live out their bad decisions. Examples of being too aggressive: cutting someone out of your life because of a minor disagreement, pursuing a field you're not cut out for because it seems profitable.
2022 Again!
Date: 2022-01-03 02:09 am (UTC)Husband asks for a 2022 reading as well.
Thanks again!
Valerie
Re: 2022 Again!
Date: 2022-01-04 04:08 am (UTC)For the main You card, he drew Eadha or Limits well-dignified. This is his year to work within the limits of what you already have. He discovers the joy of narrowing things down -- when you do this, there's suddenly a great deal more energy for what you truly want out of life.
For the Situation, he drew Ngetal or Hygiene ill-dignified. There will be a situation where either he or someone close to him is physically unwell, mentally unwell, or both. If it is physical, his best bet would be to find a good holistic physician and work with that person to improve his health. If it is mental, the practice of daily discursive meditation can cure many ills, and the coolest thing about it is it is absolutely free.
For the Outcome, he drew Ioho or Grace well-dignified, which means this year he may end up losing something/someone very dear and important to him, but it will be the right thing at the right time. The Ogham suggest he takes a reflective and contemplative stance.

From:Any advice on my studio project
Date: 2022-01-03 03:25 am (UTC)Now all the snow has melted and I’m finishing up my studio for my Off Grid Chiropractic practice. Do the Ogham have any advice for completing the building and transition part of this project?
Annette
Re: Any advice on my studio project
Date: 2022-01-04 04:13 am (UTC)The Ogham give you Uilleand or Generosity in respect to completing the building. I think what they are saying is your best strategy is to be generous to everyone who is helping you complete the project: don't skimp on appreciating them and be punctual and gracious about payment.
For the transition, they say it will be a bit sticky. They give you Ruis or Regret ill-dignified, which means that there will be sadness about what you've had to leave behind or some loose ends will refuse to be tied up.

Date: 2022-01-03 05:55 am (UTC)Last week the Oghams predicted a good week, and I guess it was good overall. My sinus infection flared up, so I am not feeling well, BUT the toilet, which had been gurgling loudly when flushed, is back to normal; I had been afraid we’d end up having to call the plumber, and as we all know it’s cheaper to call a neurosurgeon. So overall, I am flushed with happiness, and therefore call that a win for the Oghams. Now what do they have to say about the first week of 2022?
Re: Princess Cutekitten
Date: 2022-01-04 04:23 am (UTC)This week you drew three cards.
For the You position, you drew Saille or Sensitivity ill-dignified. There are two extremes to be wary of this week: undersensitivity or oversensitivity. If you are undersensitive, you might not be picking up on the distress signals of others or from your environment. If you are oversensitive, it means you have to narrow your focus and exclude what you are lukewarm about.
For the Situation, you drew Ur or Intimacy well-dignified. You are able to utilize your ability to keep a secret this week and this increases your value with the people you love. Close relationships draw closer this week.
For the Outcome, you drew Ioho or Grace well-dignified. This week you will learn to let go of what is not meant to be. You'll defer in a way that is genuinely good and Christ-like.

Thanks as always!
no subject
Date: 2022-01-04 04:31 am (UTC)For 2022, you and your family drew three cards.
For You, you will hit some turbulence this year. You drew Coll or Wisdom ill-dignified, which means you may feel frustrated by that which you do not know. This will be a year of learning to "know when to hold 'em and know when to fold 'em", meaning to choose words carefully and to remain silent when it does not benefit you to speak up.
For your family, it's a good year. They drew Ruis or Regret well-dignified, which means they will be able to learn from both their own mistakes and the mistakes of others and by doing so, they will avoid nasty trouble.
For the general outcome for you and your family, the Ogham provide Mór or Sea Change. There are factors beyond your control that take a turn for the worse this year -- think on the level of state or country, and it is just something you have to ride out. I myself had a hell of a year in 2021 -- Kiki, my beloved cat of 15 years had to be put down and I had to downsize my music studio. Nevertheless, there was a great deal of good in 2021 and though I would classify it as 100% Mór ill-dignified, it was a profound set of learning experiences that I am grateful to have lived through.
making a move
Date: 2022-01-03 11:11 am (UTC)Thank you for doing this. I hope that having to close your teaching space turns up new opportunities for you and despite the upset you end up in a favourable place.
Would you ask the Ogham if I should carry on looking west for moving house, or discard that idea and look east? Am still learning and it would be nice to have a perspective unclouded by my own prejudices and hang-ups.
Thx Stormer
Re: making a move
Date: 2022-01-04 04:35 am (UTC)For the West, they give you Phagos or Teaching well-dignified, which is to say moving West will provide the basis for development on the mental plane. The book I'm writing, Sacred Homemaking, talks about home being the crucial seat of all learning.
For the East, my Ogham aren't so keen on that for you. They provide Muin or Harvest ill-dignified, meaning anything that looks promising out there wouldn't live up to the hype.

Anonymous
Re: Take 2
Date: 2022-01-04 04:45 am (UTC)For the first month of January, you drew Mór or Sea Change ill-dignified. Factors beyond your control are a crap sandwich. Make the best of it, but expect stress and know it's nothing you did, it's just a crap sandwich and that's life.
For February, they gave you Gort or Perseverance ill-dignified. Either this shows overinvestment in a situation that doesn't bring good returns or it shows trouble "hanging in there", which could be financial or could indicate strain on relationships.
For March, they gave you Onn or Community ill-dignified, which means people who are on the acquaintance level (co-workers, extended family, people in your town) let you down or make you feel like the odd person out. Be ready to go your own way and forge your own path in spite of naysayers.
For the "anything I should be worried about?" they give you Ioho or Grace ill-dignified. This points to not wanting to let go of something that is well past its peak. It can also talk about excessive deference, meaning you may be called to fight for what you believe in and you'll be loathe to do it, but it is what has to be done.

Thanks to your Ogham and to you for doing this! Have a great Monday.

Re: Okay, January
Date: 2022-01-04 04:53 am (UTC)Happy New Year as well! For the month of January, you drew three cards.
For the You card, you drew Beith or Intention ill-dignified. You may have one of those months where your get up and go got up and went. I certainly have them! That would be a dearth or lack of Intention in my system. The other possibility is you end up going in the wrong direction or too many directions at once. Your best strategy for that is taking a good, hard look at what you want and then excluding what you either don't want or are lukewarm about. For instance, I love almost all handicrafts but I'm not willing to put in the time to do all the ones I'm interested in. I am giving up on macrame and painting for the foreseeable future... I just don't have time!!
For the Situation, you drew Quert or Delight well-dignified. You take the time to smell the roses and you pay attention and give gratitude for the small things. Gratitude for small things translates to big gratitude in general. Relationships get better and deeper. Quert is a card of happiness and contentment.
For the Outcome, you drew Fearn or Bridge ill-dignified. There may be someone you looked up to who ends up disappointing you or a hard transition to new things this month. Fearn can mean a crisis of competence and difficulty getting the help you need.
Outlook for the year
Date: 2022-01-03 03:28 pm (UTC)We made our new year visit to the local shrine today. Being the 3rd rather than the 1st day of the year it was quiet with no pressure to hurry while praying and listening. Also got a talisman (おふだ) for the house from the shrine. Look forward to this every year.
May I ask for an outlook for the year from the Ogham?
Thanks!
Re: Outlook for the year
Date: 2022-01-04 05:04 am (UTC)The Ogham say it is shaping up to be a good year for you. All three cards were balanced or well-dignified.
For the You card, they provide Beith or Intention. You know your direction this year and you put in the proper energy and investment. You are able to separate what is truly important and because of that focus, you do very well.
For the Situation, you drew Ur or Intimacy. You have wonderful and deep connections with loved ones. The bonds you have help you to face adversity and to weather storms.
For the Outcome, you drew Uilleand or Generosity. You strike a balance with how much you give and how much you receive this year. This understanding of abundance, once achieved, means that any tip of the balance towards the giving side will result in a sevenfold (or more) return as your generosity sublimates through the planes.

Date: 2022-01-04 05:13 am (UTC)My Ogham give you three cards to answer your question.
For the You position, they give you Ur or Intimacy well-dignified, which is to say you are in a good place to resume the Path. Your number one challenge will be learning to trust the non-corporeal guides you encounter. This is a matter of tuning in much like a radio band. You learn to find a place of stillness and discern who is giving you a message. There is a lot of noise you have to tune out to get that signal.
For the Situation, you drew Straif or Strife ill-dignified. You have to find a constructive way of dealing with your stress. I personally have found a great deal of benefit in journaling and discursive meditation -- between those two and the Sphere of Protection, my armor is much thicker.
For the Outcome, you drew Ioho or Grace well-dignified. Ioho is a mystical card and talks about you having natural talent as a seer. Ioho is also a card of talking to the dead and helping them let go so they can go to the Gates. Do you find you have any talent for talking with the deceased?

Date: 2022-01-04 05:18 am (UTC)My Ogham give you three cards for 2022.
For the You card, they give you Ur or Intimacy well-dignified, which means that you demonstrate your ability to remain silent when necessary, and this makes you a valuable friend as well as a trustworthy person in general.
For the Situation, they provide Muin or Harvest well-dignified, which means that an investment will come to fruition or that an aspect of character that you've worked on will bring well-deserved good luck and happiness.
For the Outcome, they gave you Phagos or Teaching ill-dignified, which means that you will feel you have a long way to go in the mental plane of mastery where you would like to be proficient. They warn against both overconfidence and underconfidence where this is concerned: admit what you don't know/can't do even when you are pressured to do it or know it, and don't worry about your lack of knowledge or expertise. You'll get there eventually.

From:Travel inquiry
Date: 2022-01-03 08:25 pm (UTC)I've recently become aware of two upcoming opportunities to take part in peaceful demonstrations against medical mandates, vaccine passports, and the like. One is closer both temporally and physically-- it's this week, and just a couple of hours' drive away. The other is roughly a day's drive away, and several weeks away. Not sure that I would drive to either, but it's possible.
What do your Ogham say about my taking part in these events? I feel that I ought to, but I enjoy being a homebody and both would inconvenience me. Perhaps I've just answered my own question.... Thanks for this. Very interested in what your reading will say.
Donkey Oatey
Re: Travel inquiry
Date: 2022-01-04 05:24 am (UTC)For the closer one, they provide Onn or Community ill-dignified, which is saying that the group of people won't necessarily be all that inclusive or well-organized.
For the one that is further away, they give Muin or Harvest ill-dignified, meaning that the protest won't achieve its goals and that going there will not be a good use of your time.
Maybe consider doing a more introverted way of fighting, for instance starting a Speakeasy social media group like the one I have that connects people of like mind and creates a gray/black market so the unquaxxed can get what they need.

Date: 2022-01-04 05:27 am (UTC)They give you Ailm or Transcendence ill-dignified, which means you should beware of a couple of imbalances. One is the lack of Transcendence, which means difficulties that are hard to get around, depression, or inconveniences that make it less enjoyable. If there is too much Transcendence, it may mean that troubles keep coming just as you think they are over. Be ready for anything would be my advice!
