Im prone to call it Freya’s day, but call it as you will as long as you’re all well! Today’s pull is Othala. Again, I’m getting major ancestor connections here as I’m still kind of working the kinks out on that. Also some odd, irrelevant memories from my childhood have resurfaced (mainly in the form of my terrible habit for sarcasm and bad jokes) but I definitely sense it on a deeper level even when it’s a joke. What do you see in Othala today?
OTHALA
KEYWORDS: Tradition, heritage, ancestral property, family ties RUNIC INSPIRATION: Blood ties, however problematic or intolerable are still important and implicate us for all our lives. It is essential to recognize their value and realize that we are the result of our past and we must start from our roots to develop our heritage that is rich and plentiful. Drawing Othala may indicate that an aspect of your current situation is related to your background-perhaps unconscious beliefs you absorbed as a child or some other element that shaped your upbringing.
Othala may be advising you to learn from your extended family or to lean on them for emotional or material support regarding a challenging matter. Or to check on your people back home.
POWER OF THE RUNE: Othala anchors us to our identity and reinforces blood ties and bestows well-being. As followers of the ancient Gods this can also be referring to the traditions of the beliefs in these Gods and the practices of our religion.
SUGGESTIONS FOR MEDITATION: Do we respect our ancestors and their traditions? Which ties do we find difficult to abandon and which on the other hand, would it be wise to rediscover?
Magical uses: Gaining and holding wealth, healing, promoting harmonious family relationships, clarity about the self. communication with ancestors
