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.

(Anonymous) 2023-05-08 03:25 am (UTC)(link)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.

(Anonymous) 2023-05-09 04:55 am (UTC)(link)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.
