Ogham Readings on Sundays

[kimberlysteele]

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.

 

Please note I will be taking off the week of September 10, 2023.  Readings will resume as usual September 17, 2023.

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.

Week 29

[(Anonymous)]

Hi Kimberly,

1. What do I need to know in order to make the best out of this week?

2. May the Ogham comment on my obsession with my past mistakes/regrets/"sins"? On the one hand, I believe in repenting, and I believe that I am repenting. But on the other hand, there has to come a point when retreading "old hat" become perseveration or even self-sadomasochism.

Thanks!

Re: Week 29, change of question #2

Hi Kimberly,

If it is not too late, I would like to change my question #2 to the following:

2. May the Ogham comment on what I perceive to be my almost drunk-like state of being that I sometimes have inhabited for the past 30 years or so? In recently meditating on past problem behaviors and mistakes that I continue to repeat time after time, I am ashamed at not only how often I “played recklessly with house money,” but also am embarrassed at how much undeserved luck negated any repercussions I should have experienced.

Thanks again :-)

Re: Week 29

Hi Eugene,

You drew three cards this week.

For the You position, you drew Koad or Grove ill-dignified. This week isn't the one where everything goes your way, so take what little you can control and make the best of it. It is a good week to look at other times that were a bit on the sour side and to look at what you made of the situations and what could have been done to improve it.

For the Situation, you drew Saille or Sensitivity ill-dignified. A lack of will on your part has you flailing in the wind, and from what I can tell in my limited vision, you need to get outside yourself. Others are not thinking about you as much as you believe they are thinking about you. We all have our own lives to live and no matter how dramatic the past was, time does have a way of healing all wounds. Instead of worrying about what others think and trying to attune yourself to them while ruminating in the shared past, earth it out by finding a project or developing a skill that requires intense concentration and daily work. Even something absurd would be fine; for instance playing the recorder.

For the Outcome, you drew Ioho or Grace well-dignified. By letting go of what was not meant to be, you must go against the grain of the dominant spirit of our times. This is not easy work, but it will make your soul rejoice. It is a good week to purge stuff from your living space, clean out the cupboards and fridge, and recognize some Saturnian limits, especially about what you can and cannot control.

As to your changed question, the Ogham give you Straif or Resilience ill-dignified. There is something about your childhood and upbringing that needs to be thoroughly addressed in discursive meditation. If you were punished too severely, chances are you learned a malformed approach to self-discipline. If you were not punished enough, chances are you learned to think of yourself as überspecial and the mental equivalent of being obsessed with your reflection in the mirror became a poisonous pastime. In the weirdest way, having too much can seem like having too little.
