Your question What is the kindest accurate thing to say?

The spread

  1. What is rooted Hagalaz Disruption from outside. Not personal, not permanent. What to avoid: Blaming yourself for weather.
  2. What is rising Isa Stillness, ice and the pause that preserves. What to avoid: Waiting as an avoidance strategy.
  3. What must be cut Othala Inheritance: land, family, and the habits that came with them. What to avoid: Loyalty to a version of home that has changed.
