Good Tyr’s Day. Todays rune is Berkana. While this can be seen in many ways. It immediately strikes me as Frigg, watching me, comforting me, and helping me find my strength again. New beginnings and growth are abundant here, but not over what I had already mentioned. That takes precedence over all else. It means I am taking right action, on the right path, and that these failures around me are not my fault. Keep. Pushing. Forward. It also reminds me of my constant push towards mental health awareness and compassion. We’ve been working on a book about that. It’s going to take quite some time, it is my life’s story after all. With Heathenry taking the reigns and guiding me right. I look forward to finishing those stories, so I can share them with you. Other books come first though as not all stories have ended yet.
