Ogham Readings on Sundays

[kimberlysteele]

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! I take reading requests from whenever I post on Saturday night until 8pm Central Time (Chicago Illinois USA) on Sunday night.

 

 ********Ogham readings are concluded for the week of March 6.  Thank you for visiting and see you next week for more Ogham readings!********

It is ok to ask two question?

[(Anonymous)]

Hi Kimberly
May I ask two questions? If only one is allowed, then please go with the one about the job (unless the other feels more important to you...i suspect you are better able to sense such things than I)
(1) I am currently taking music lessons from a teacher who is an excellent musician, but suffers from emotional issues (to put it mildly). Today she proceeded to dump on me every complaint about wrongs done to her for her entire life. I very much wanted to point out that I’m her student, not her therapist, but instead apologized (once she finally told me what she wanted to hear). I am trying to decide if continuing to work with her, and the walking on eggshells that is required, is worth it.
(2) there is a small but nonzero chance I will be relocating soon due to work. Would this be good for me and for the company.
Thank you

I'm a professional music teacher and it's absolutely uncalled for when a teacher unloads her psychological baggage on a student. I have taught for 25 years. There isn't time during a lesson to have so much talk about life, the universe, and everything. My Ogham seem to think you should keep her -- they give Ailm or Transcendence -- but I strongly disagree with them. If she wants to be your friend, that's a different relationship. When the rare student of mine becomes a friend, we have our lesson and then later we go out for a meal and talk our hearts out over tea, bread, and soup. Lesson time is sacred. We only do music during lesson time. If she wants you to be her counselor, then maybe she should be paying you. It's all too common that good musical performers make lousy teachers. Please find a music instructor who won't waste your lesson time with psychological garbage and manipulation. You deserve better.

To your work questions, my Ogham don't think it would be good for you if you relocate. They give Beith or Birth ill-dignified, meaning it would not be easy to begin in a new place at all. They do say it would be good for the company though. They give Luis or Protection to answer that question, meaning the company would be making a good decision if they do the relocation scheme they've been considering.

Thank you very much for your reply

As for the teacher, she is so much the opposite of you in so very many ways! She is fully foxxed and booted and still insists we have to wear masks even though hardly anyone around here (Texas) wears them. She says she lost some students because she went to online-only for nearly 2 years and the kids’ parents wanted to continue in person. I’m new, having just started a couple months ago, when she went back to doing in-person, so I missed out on all that. Transcendence. Interesting. I will have to meditate on this. I suspect it is a test of some sort.

I saw in the comments of one of your other posts about the live music scene being shut down where you are and in Seattle. Wow what a difference a state border makes! We have live music, arts festivals, and sporting events going on. Its a whole other world....

As for the work thing.... also interesting. Good for them but not for me is unexpected. Its a very small company, and the owner sits at a desk a few feet from mine and we all take turns sweeping the floor and cleaning the toilet, and I feel like we’re in this together. Hmmmm... much to consider here.
