Rune of the Day: Daeg
Today is a good day to start making those changes you've been thinking about; whether it's a new exercise program, a spiritual practice, or just taking better care of yourself.  More dramatic changes are certainly possible now also-perhaps it's time to go back to school or to consider a career change. 
 
Tarot Card of the Day: King of Wands Reversed
 

Try to be understanding of others, especially those who are in positions of authority.  You may not understand their decisions, they may even be bad decisions, but reacting negatively will accomplish nothing. Learning their motivation can make it easier to deal with difficult people, and that in turn can lead to less stress for you.

The Two Together

Daeg paired with the reversed King of Wands is urging us to use caution today. This is a great time to make changes in our lives, but we must be careful that we are making these changes for the right reasons. Making changes as a way of controlling or punishing others is never a good idea. We must be sure that our motivations and goals are serving the highest good, not the lowest common denominator.
 
Blessings!

Rune of the Day: Gifu
 
 
We often can accomplish more in life when we accept help from others, and give them help in return. Just make sure the help you are giving and/or receiving is a two way street. Without give and take things quickly fall out of balance, and that will almost always lead to resentment and negativity. Just pass it on when you are helped, you never know how far a helping hand may reach.
 
Tarot Card of the Day: 9 of Cups Reversed
 
 
Try to get out of your own head today; and focus on someone other than yourself. Although your needs seem pressing right now, there is always someone in more need than you. Don't forget, the more you worry about something the more energy you give that very thing. Focus on helping not worrying and watch the changes happen.
 
The Two Together
 
Gifu paired with the reversed 9 of Cups is reminding us that we are all in this life together. We can't do it all by ourselves, and no one person is more important than any other. We all have needs and wants and can only obtain them with the help of others and by helping others. Reach out to someone else today and give them a hand, and then watch as the Universe returns that generosity to you.
 
Blessings!

Rune of the Day: Wunjo
 
 
You're feeling truly accomplished today, as though you are exactly where you are supposed to be in life. There is a sense of deep inner peace and happiness, a feeling of contentment. You're aware of your blessings, and are not only acknowledging them but taking the time to truly appreciate and be grateful for them.
 
Tarot Card of the Day: 10 of Swords
 
 
 
 Sometimes life is so overwhelming, your problems so complex or so many, that the only thing to do is to give in, to put it in the Universe's hands. This is one of those times. There is nothing wrong with asking for help, from the Universe or from someone else, with the problems that you just can't handle on your own. Sometimes, such as with addiction, the only way to gain any kind of victory over it is by admitting you can't beat it alone and need help.

The Two Together
 
Wunjo paired with the 10 of Swords is telling us that sometimes the only way to true inner peace is through giving up. We need to give up on chasing those things, and people, that are unobtainable. Sometimes we just have to walk away from the things that are hurting us, no matter how hard it may be to do. By walking away, by giving up, we are releasing those things and their hold on us: that, in turn, frees us to focus on the things that lift us up and give us joy. Life is too short to spend it chasing misery, let the unhappiness go and start chasing joy.
 
Blessings!

Rune of the Day: Tir
 
 
It's time to take the high road today, to do what is best in the long run, not the short term. This may not be easy, sometimes you can accomplish a lot short term; while focusing on the long term looks, and more importantly, feels like accomplishing nothing. Just remember that the short term stuff can be done almost any time; if you miss the opportunity to start the long term work, you may never get it back.
 
Tarot Card of the Day: 4 of Wands Reversed
 
 
 Although you have a lot to get done, take some time for yourself today. Slaving away constantly without a little rest and fun every once in a while will only lead to burnout. You can't do your best work unless you refresh yourself-so go for a walk, play a game, watch a movie, whatever works for you, take some time to do that today.

The Two Together
 
Tir paired with the reversed 4 of Wands is telling us that we need to look at the big picture in connection with ourselves today. We need to focus on doing what is best for us in the long run, especially in terms of our work, whatever that may be-a traditional job, taking care of the house and/or children, school,or even our own business.  It is essential today to take care of ourselves, to take some time for us, to have some fun, to relax, to maybe schedule that Dr. appointment we've been putting off. Whatever it is, today is the day to take the time to do it. 
 
Blessings!

Rune of the Day: Raido
Focus on getting where you want to go today, not on the destination, but on the journey itself.  There is a lot to be learned just by paying attention to what is going on around us. It is almost always the journey that we take through life, and not our goals, that is most important.
 
Tarot Card of the Day: 4 of Cups




Life may not be all that you would like it to be right now; in fact, you may spend a lot of time focusing on everything that you think is wrong with your corner of the world.  Be careful not to get caught up in the mindset that nothing is going to go right, that nothing can make things better.  Not only do you attract what you put out into the Universe, but if you look at everything critically, you may pass up something that would be perfect for you.

The Two Together



Raido paired with the 4 of Cups is reminding us to not get too caught up in our current situation, whatever it is.  Life is a journey, and that means it is ever-changing.  Present circumstances may not be all that we want them to be, but nothing is forever.  As our journey progresses, our situation will change.
 
Blessings!

Rune of the Day: Hagall
 
 
 Some things are a bit out of control in your life right now; just let go these are necessary changes being made. There is a new path you are to follow in some matters and that path is being made clear to you. The more things are changing, the farther from the old path the new one will be.

Tarot Card of the Day: 8 of Pentacles
 
 
 Take time to do things well today, don't rush through them. There is always something more to be learned about the things you spend a lot of time on whether it's a hobby or work. Make that extra effort to keep learning, don't just coast along.

The Two Together
 
Hagall paired with the 8 of Pentacles is telling us that things are going to be changing soon, especially in areas that we spend a lot of time on. We need to be open to the change, to learn from it, and to do out best on the new path that we are being directed towards. The more we learn as we go, no matter what direction we're going, the better we can make our lives, and by extension, the world.
 
Blessings!
