Hi Everyone,
I am happy to read your Ogham free of charge -- that's how I hone my divination skills. I take reading requests until 8pm Central Time (Chicago Illinois USA) on Sunday night. Though I am flattered that people want readings after the deadline, I decline reading requests made after 8pm Central Time on Sunday night without exception.
For a more in depth look into how I read and interpret the Ogham's symbols, please visit my website druidogham.wordpress.com.
I am currently trying to minimize my use of PayPal. If you'd like to make a donation, I would be grateful if you did it here:

Week 7
Date: 2023-02-12 08:09 am (UTC)If I may ask a few questions this week:
1. What do I need to know in order to make the best out of this week?
2. I have been asked to fill out a survey, but am anxious that it might be used against me. Can the Ogham comment on this?
Thanks!
-Eugene
Re: Week 7
Date: 2023-02-13 02:40 am (UTC)You drew three cards this week.
For the You position, you drew Straif or Resilience well-dignified. This week has its challenges, physical, monetary, and otherwise. Nevertheless, you are equipped to deal with them and you find that you make good choices without having to push too much.
For the Situation, you drew Ngetal or Health ill-dignified. Straight up, this card can mean that there is a risk involving your health, so be aware and alert. This is a good week to take good care of yourself: eating right, using herbs and supplements, and doing mild exercise. Keep in mind that over-healthing yourself with a strict diet or excessively Spartan punishment-lifestyle will backfire. Everything in moderation.
For the Outcome, you drew Ioho or Grace well-dignified. This is a week where you deal with loss well. You come to a benevolent understanding of what is not meant to be and what can no longer be. This isn't an easy state to enter, which is why it is called Grace. There is much mastery required in order to let go.
My Ogham think filling out the survey may be a bad idea. They provide Gort or Perseverance ill-dignified, meaning it could be used against you to affect your ability to make a living.

Date: 2023-02-12 09:42 am (UTC)To review: for the outcome, I got Tinne ill-dignified, and this past week had physical fences as a running theme, mending fences, planning future fences, debating fence materials. For other less physical boundaries, delineating responsibilities, putting lines about things that were rather formless. I took your advice to put some insurance on my travel plans, not sure how that will work out, but its all dotting i s and crossing t s.
To ask: What is it that the Ogham wants me to know for this week?

Date: 2023-02-13 02:51 am (UTC)You drew three cards this week. For the You position, you drew Luis or Protection well-dignified. This week you have moments where you access your best self. This is another way of saying you are in touch with your Holy Guardian Angel more than usual. That said, when the HGA is active, it can mean physical or other danger, so remain alert. The reason for this is that as your guardian on this Earth, it often hovers close when you are in danger.
For the Situation, you drew Uilleand or Generosity ill-dignified. This card can mean a few things. For one, it can mean that you are either molly-coddling or smothering someone or they are doing the same to you. It can also mean that you are giving more than you can afford, and depending upon the spirit in which this is done, it can have good karmic effects for you. Since this is Situation, it can also indicating someone sacrificing their own needs and wants on your behalf and/or being very generous to you.
For the Outcome, you drew Oír well-dignified. Oír means Epiphany. Any kind of revelation can leave you smarting, so keep in mind Oír is a double-edged sword. That said, you need to have the revelation in order to grow, and in this case, you stand a good chance of realizing that growth without too much of an internal fight.

Re: Princess Cutekitten
Date: 2023-02-13 02:57 am (UTC)I hope this reading applies, because it is all balanced/well-dignified and indicates a pleasant week.
For the You position, you drew Huath or Obstacles well-dignified. This does not mean that this week is a walk in the park, but it indicates the challenges won't be too much for you and that you'll come out on top. That said, Huath can indicate physical danger, so stay cautious. Overall it means a balance of Martial energy. You have just enough fight to face your week.
For the Situation, you drew Beith or Intention well-dignified. Beith talks about going in a unified, productive direction without excessive expectations or excessive pessimism. Like Huath, it's a card of balanced forceful energy. Since it is in Situation, it could apply to someone close to you or you or both.
For the Outcome, you drew Gort or Perseverance well-dignified. Gort indicates having what Thomas Taylor calls "necessary wealth" in his translation of the Orphic Hymns. You may not have all you want, but you have all you need.

Date: 2023-02-12 01:59 pm (UTC)What do your Ogham have to say about a choice I am considering: L, Z, or neither?
Thanks as always,
JimmyD
no subject
Date: 2023-02-13 03:13 am (UTC)The Ogham like L and Z and give different sets of benefits for each. They don't care for "neither". Here is the breakdown. For L, they provide Quert or Delight well-dignified. Quert is a card of Aphrodite. It talks about attention to detail, courtesy, a good sense of humor, and fun. Quert represents the little things that add up and make civilization worth living in. For Z, they provide Ur or Intimacy well-dignified. Ur means closeness, camaraderie, warmth, and affection. It also means the ability to keep a secret, which is the foundation of a sound mind and solid friendships and relationships. For neither, they provide Fearn or Guidance ill-dignified. Fearn means too much withdrawal into the self until self-reliance turns septic and becomes solipsism. It is also a card of being too easily influenced and too easily led, which makes it a card of bad advice and false gurus.

Date: 2023-02-12 03:32 pm (UTC)1. What do I need to know to make the best of this coming week?
2. An event from my past still bothers me to this day and gives me anxiety. I’ve been working on applying the Ioho approach to it with meditation, journaling and breathing, but I’m curious if your Ogham could provide a clue as to *why* the event still stresses me? Identifying the root source of stress can help with finally releasing the stress.

Date: 2023-02-13 10:32 pm (UTC)My Ogham think you should probably keep looking as to your question about making the newly romanticized relationship work. They provide Saille or Sensitivity ill-dignified, which is a clear message that your feelings aren't strong enough to merit any major shifts in consciousness in a positive and mutually beneficial direction, so it would be much better to release this woman to her destiny so she can have a fighting chance at true connection with someone else.

Date: 2023-02-13 10:21 pm (UTC)You drew three cards this week. For the You position, you drew Fearn or Bridge ill-dignified. Fearn is our connection to divine guidance and quite often it represents divine guidance coming from other people. There are a few ways Fearn can be imbalanced: 1. Becoming too dependent on oneself for guidance and not reaching out for outside help when you should be doing so. 2. Being over-relied upon for your knowledge, or people blowing you off despite you having helpful and important information. 3. A false guru or organization that seeks to mislead 4. Good advice that you just cannot use right now.
For the Situation, you drew Huath or Obstacles well-dignified. Even in balanced dignity, Huath can mean physical danger, so be on your guard this week. Don't put yourself in dicey situations. That said, you bring balanced Martial energy to your challenges this week. Proper Huath is much like the restraint shown by Shaolin monk-warriors. They never look for a fight, but if they're cornered, they open a can of whup-ass on those dumb enough to assail them.
For the Outcome, you drew Oír or Epiphany ill-dignified. There are some heavy realizations you would do well to meditate upon this week. They are of the sort that involve becoming the master of your emotions and not the servant of your emotions. This can be a painful and depressing process. It's necessary though, so bear with it.

Date: 2023-02-13 10:45 pm (UTC)You drew three cards this week.
For the You position, you drew Uilleand or Generosity ill-dignified. At worst, this card indicates that you're smothering/molly-coddling someone too much or that they are doing the same to you. The thing about smothering/molly-coddling is how it can be a sneaky, underhanded way of dominating someone, because it is a way of using guilt to claim ownership over someone else's heart. That said, this card can also be imbalanced in the sense of you being too generous or being the recipient of special privilege. If it is you being too generous, it's not a bad card at all, because you can count on your gifts being returned to you sevenfold across the various planes.
For the Situation, you drew Ngetal or Hygiene well-dignified. Overall health should be decent this week and your immediate astral environment isn't too bad, plus your defenses are in ship shape and Bristol fashion. That is to say they are working properly. It's a good week to note your physical and non-physical levels of discipline and how those correlate to a finely-tuned state of mental and physical health.
For the Outcome, you drew Muin or Harvest well-dignified. You have reasons to give yourself a pat on the back this week. Take a little moment to treat yourself or to raise a glass because you deserve it. It's always more difficult to remember the positive than the negative, especially when it is something positive you achieve for yourself or for someone else: we are wired to remember negativity because it helps us survive. Nevertheless, take the proper time to recognize good works.

Date: 2023-02-12 07:18 pm (UTC)Hope you're doing well! A couple weeks ago your ogham reading predicted that my severing ties with a former ex/friend would go off fairly seamlessly without too much drama. I'm quite relieved that the divination has certainly born out. Just wanted to say a big thanks to you and the ogham for the reading, it certainly helped me move forward with that hard decision.

Date: 2023-02-12 07:36 pm (UTC)Could I ask for a reading on my job please? There is something odd going on but I can't put my finger on it. As you do a 3 card draw could you ask your Ogham for some guidance on 1) my position future in the organisation 2) the current state of my department and 3) the (near) future of my department?
Many thanks as always.

Re: My job
Date: 2023-02-14 01:20 am (UTC)For 1), your future position, they provide Beith or Intention well-dignified, meaning you have the wherewithal to go as far as you want to go in the organization. Your single-minded direction of will is a phenomenon to behold according to the Ogham.
For 2) the current state of your department, the Ogham give you Koad or Confluence well-dignified. This is to say that this is as good as it gets, take it or leave it. Most of this you have zero control over, but you do have some wiggle room to assert yourself and you should use it.
For 3) the near future of the department, they provide Phagos or Teaching ill-dignified. Stupid and/or clueless people make it difficult to get anything done, and there is a hefty dose of "my/our ignorance is better than your knowledge". Ignore, subvert, and go around those people to the best of your ability: the less they know, the better. Ask forgiveness, not permission.
Re: My job
Date: 2023-02-14 09:00 am (UTC)Another Week
Date: 2023-02-12 08:38 pm (UTC)I would like to ask to Ogham what I should focus on to make the best of the rest of winter?
Thank you,

Re: Another Week
Date: 2023-02-14 01:26 am (UTC)For your own immediate state of being, they provide Nuin or Communication well-dignified. You are able to use tech to your advantage more than usual this month, and this is directly proportional to your patience with it. Good things come from the world of strangers and commercial transactions are auspicious for the next few weeks. If you travel, things are likely to go smoothly.
For the Situation, they provide Oír or Epiphany well-dignified. The outside world brings with it the influence of revelation and revolution, changing you and opening your mind. These epiphanies can be painful no matter what the dignity of the tree card, so be ready to constructively deal with old emotions and patterns in a new way.
For the Outcome, you drew Koad or Confluence well-dignified. Most of the good circumstances in your life or anyone else's are a matter of pure chance and luck of the draw. That said, there is much you have done to gift your life with the improvements you currently enjoy, so take a moment to appreciate yourself (and the choices you've made) for not being a total wreck. Credit where credit is due.
Some Savings
Date: 2023-02-12 09:58 pm (UTC)I have some retirement savings held in institution O.
I would like to ask the Ogham if I should hold it in O, or move it to institution C or institution S.
Thank you,
Jeffrey
Re: Some Savings
Date: 2023-02-14 01:30 am (UTC)For C, they provide Huath or Obstacles well-dignified. This seems to say that C will provide good defense and that your assets would be safe with them.
For S, they provide Straif or Resilience well-dignified. This indicates that they might be able to grow your savings a little and make you a bit more resilient.

Date: 2023-02-14 01:42 am (UTC)You drew three cards this week.
For the You position, you drew Coll or Wisdom ill-dignified. The forecast is that you'll be tempted to say something you should not say this week -- button up those lips! That said, don't be afraid of looking dumb by asking a question.
For the Situation, you drew Ailm or Transcendence well-dignified. Though you may have to say No, deal with fools, undergo a challenge, or defer in some way, you will be gracious about it. You may think nobody is watching but you are never truly alone. I'm not referring to the NSA either -- we all have divine Watchers who monitor what we are doing all the time. You stand a good chance of making them notice you in a positive way this week.
For the Outcome, you drew Uilleand or Generosity ill-dignified. You may be spoiling someone rotten (my thoughts go to my cats, hmmm, I wonder why? They're not spoiled or anything. Is it hot in here or are my pants burning?) and in that case, cool your jets, spoiling someone retards their spiritual development and makes it harder for them in the long run. If you are the one being spoiled, gently tell the spoiler to back off. Alternately, if the imbalance of generosity actually refers to too much giving from you, meaning being generous to a fault, that generosity will return to you sevenfold. In that case, it's nothing but good news for you.

Date: 2023-02-13 12:57 am (UTC)What do the Ogham have to say about the insane train derailment and subsequent chemical burn happening in Ohio? Are the effects local? Regional? National? Worldwide? Are they catastrophically big or are they nothing, for the effected area?

Date: 2023-02-13 01:49 am (UTC)I have the same extra question as Eugene this week, if that's OK:
1. What's up for me and my family this week?
2. My spouse has have been asked to fill out a survey, but we are concerned that it might be used against us. Can the Ogham comment on this?
Thanks!

no subject
Date: 2023-02-14 02:00 am (UTC)You and your family drew three cards this week. This week could be a doozy, because all three cards were ill-dignified. That said, I have very good days on all ill-dig readings (I read my own Ogham 1x per day) so there is much to be said for forewarned = forearmed.
For the You position, you drew Nuin or Communication. Wires get crossed, machines misbehave, transactions and accounts need to be watched like a hawk. When there is an excess of Communication energy, it means passwords can be breached, security compromised, and that too much outside world negativity is entering the house. The opposite and equally possible imbalance is an overreaction to the first: trying to seal oneself off. Going medieval isn't always the best strategy; it can make the worldly stuff seem more appealing.
For the Situation, you drew Straif or Resilience. When ill-dignified, this can often mean feeling a financial or resource pinch. The end of winter is a time when emotions run high and grumpiness clogs the atmosphere: this is the natural result of body, mind, and spirit wanting to clear out the last of the gunk before the arrival of spring.
For the Outcome, you drew Ngetal or Hygiene. Straight up, there is a good chance of somebody in the family not feeling well this week. Etheric starvation is the most common malady of our time and sometimes there isn't any remedy stronger than a BandAid for it. Hoodoo baths, home cooking, amulets, and bedside geometrics can only go so far. That said, every little bit helps, so be prepared to employ your natural magic and healing arsenal this week. Prayers to Apollo for you with your permission.
My Ogham agree, you should not do the survey. They give two cards as an answer. One is that your gut is right -- they give you Phagos or teaching well-dignified as to your sense being correct, it may be used against you. As to in what way, they provide the card Huath or Obstacles ill-dignified, meaning that it could very well be used to put impedances in your way for nefarious purposes. I find it interesting that the Ogham also pooh-poohed Eugene's survey.
