Ogham Readings on Sundays



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:

Your prayers of blessing to the deity/deities of your choice are welcome whether or not you can donate.

Dear Kimberly. Thank you ever so much for your readings. Please can you enquire of your Ogham what will I be wise to keep in mind this week. Pax et bonum.

Good morning Kimberly,

To ask: What is it that I need to know this week, according to the Ogham?

(Anonymous) 2023-05-07 12:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Hi Kimberly and thank you as always for this service.

I am curious as to what your Ogham thinks about my relationship with old friends from college.

I had stayed in touch with some college friends over the years, but starting in 2016 I started to feel increasingly alienated from them. You can probably guess why. First the TDS made me uncomfortable - even though I never even liked Trump, there was something just off about their seething vitriol. Then they went in whole hog for Cootie Mania (they never asked my jab status and I never volunteered, so they don't even know that I'm one of the Unclean). And along the way they all seemed to become increasingly woke and to support things that I find frankly appalling (trans ideology that sexualizes and pushes gender confusion on minors and allows biological men to steal women's sports titles and scholarships, medical mandates that violate bodily autonomy, etc.). Years ago, we were all on what used to be the political left, and as far as I can tell, my positions have changed very little - but they sort of sprinted off the woke deep end without me. That's what it feels like anyway. A lot of us have been there, I imagine.

My question is, how should I handle this? Should I accept their efforts to re-connect or avoid them? If the former what do I do if their deranged nonsense comes up - do I bite my tongue and smile, or push back? I don't want to get into pointless fights with people, but I also don't know how much tongue-biting I can do.

The whole thing is just....wearisome. On one hand, I feel like just washing my hands of these people, but on the other hand, it really does feel sometimes like they've been ensorcelled in some way and maybe I shouldn't write them off but should stick around as a voice of sanity should the enchantment ever wear off, or maybe for some other reason I can't see right now.

Does your Ogham have any advice for me?

Thank you for the reading.

It is indeed very painful.

The worst part of it is, I really don't think that these are malicious people. That's what's so hard about what's been going on for the better part of 7-8 years now. It's like watching loved ones lost to a cult. They now really believe whatever indoctrination they're spouting, and think they're doing the "right" thing and that they are good, smart, and perfectly reasonable people. I know there is nothing I can do, but it's still sad.

That said, my instinct is to pull away and avoid. They're all being perfectly nice and normal, all happy that "the pandemic is over" and they can get back to "normal" life and want me to come socialize, but I still shrink from them. I can't un-see what I've seen in recent years - the gullibility, the group-think, the worship of dogma ("science"), the unthinking obedience to authority ("experts"), the support of human rights violations, the willingness to condemn others (Trump voters, the unjabbed) as a sub-category of humans who don't deserve respect, etc. There's something very wrong with their moral compasses, even if they can't see it.

The fact is, your Ogham basically told me what my intuition was already telling me...but I wanted a "second opinion" on the matter. Your Ogham's confirmation of my instincts makes me feel less like I'm the crazy one.

For what it's worth, I too think this whole thing has felt like a test.

Like with most tests, I tend to think that there were degrees of success and failure. Some people failed spectacularly, using covid as an excuse to exercise their worst impulses and act horribly. Other people - and these are the kind I was talking about here - also failed, but less dramatically. Growing up isn't always easy; to achieve true maturity, you have to be willing to question what you've been told and to interrogate the legitimacy of the authorities you were always told to trust. A lot of people fell down on this test not because they wanted any excuse to act like jerks, but because they were just far too comfortable and lazy to do the hard work of asking questions and finding answers they might not like. It's just easier to keep believing what you were told to believe, trusting who you were told to trust, and not leaving your comfortable little nest of childish illusion about how the world works. The blue pill is the easier choice, and a lot of people picked it.

I imagine there will be degrees of consequences as well. I do hope that the people who failed out of childishness will be given another shot in their next incarnation at making the choice to grow up.

Good morning Kimberly.

What do I need to know to make the best of this next week?

Thanks as always.

Hi Kimberly, how are things looking for the week ahead? Your reading last week (https://kimberlysteele.dreamwidth.org/89493.html?thread=3121557#cmt3121557) was quite accurate especially concerning the realizations - both large and small.

Hi Kimberly,

What would the outcome be if I started doing planetary charity for Mercury?

Thank you for your time.

Hi Kimberley,

I've been more and more concerned about vaccine-shedding. In particular, because of my self-defence class, in which I'm exposed to a fair amount of sweat. Possibly trace amounts of saliva (it's a pretty intense class). One of the guys the other day had had a shaving cut. It wasn't exactly fresh, but still... little bit sketchy.

I've also swigged drinks bottles that have been passed around groups of vaxxed and unvaxxed. Didn't even occur to me at the time.

I take vit supplements daily, along with quercetin and L-lysine. I've ordered some natto extract tablets as well.

I'm wondering if your ogham have any advice on this?

Many thanks again,
Luke

Hey Kim, looks like the cats are doing great!

Q- More and more, the US banking sector seems to be tottering at the edge of a cliff. Which business quarter of the following 3 options do the ogham give for when the next financial collapse, a la 2008, occurs?

1. Q4 2023
2. Q1 2024
3. Q2 2024

Thanks!

Hi Kimberly.

I’d like a general reading for this week from the Ogham with maybe some attention to my health.

Thank you so much.

Good afternoon Kimberly,

I would like to ask the Ogham what I should be aware of this week?

Thank you,

I've been thinking a lot about community lately. Spiritual/religious community has been a problem for me; I've joined a few over the decades, but I inevitably become alienated and drop out. I really can't parse out if it's them or me (or, what's more likely, both). Do the Ogham think I ought to pursue community, or would it be better for me to remain solitary? Thanks in advance!

Very good indeed! I'm glad to know I'm not just being avoidant. I will keep a safe distance, focus on my own practice, and let the future take care of itself!

Disregard my previous request

Kimberly, please ignore my earlier message asking about roommates. One just stated they found a roommate already, the other is no longer looking like a good option without needing divination to intervene.

I prayed to Jupiter as you recommended last week. Did he approve of my prayer to him?

Thank you for your readings.

Hi Kimberly,

For my 4th question this week, I'd like the Ogham to comment on my last incarnation.

Thanks!
