Friday, January 10th EIHWAZ

Eihwaz is a rune of endings, of inconvenience, of discomfort promoting growth, of toughness tempered with flexibility. The short meaning of Eihwaz is bending without breaking.

Today will be a day of closure, of moving on from and for both people and situations.  Nothing in life stays the same, the trick is to adapt and grow with the changes that come our way.

That's what we need to focus on today, not the doors that are closing, but the ones down the hall that are opening.

Tarot Card of the Day: 2 of Cups

 

The 2 of Cups is a card of closeness with another person, of a deep connection, sometimes of a true communing with the Divine. 

Don't be surprised to hear from a long-lost friend today, or from an ex whom you remember fondly.   This is a day when people whom we have always felt close to seem to get in touch.

 Spend some time reconnecting with those people you've lost touch with, or reach out to someone you've been thinking about lately.  This is a great day to reconnect. 

The Two Together:

Both Eihwaz and the 2 of Cups speak of relationships: Eihwaz of ending what doesn't work for us, and the 2 of Cups of staying connected with what does work.

Sometimes we have to look at our life almost as if it were a garden: weed out what is slowly strangling us, keep what strengthens us, and bring in or bring back in things that have strengthened us n the past. 

This works with people too: keep the ones that help you grow, reconnect with those who strengthen and support you, and discard those who are holding you back.  

Focus on the good relationships in your life, the other ones, the ones that are more trouble than they are worth-it's time to move on. 

Blessings!
