Your question Is this a beginning or an ending in disguise?

The spread

  1. What is rooted Kenaz The controlled fire: craft, warmth, a skill being learned. What to avoid: A talent used only to impress.
  2. What is rising Hagalaz Disruption from outside. Not personal, not permanent. What to avoid: Blaming yourself for weather.
  3. What must be cut Kenaz The controlled fire: craft, warmth, a skill being learned. What to avoid: A talent used only to impress.

The runes are cast onto a plain surface on a Sunday in autumn, and the first one lands face up, which is unusual and rarely flattering.

The centre rune is Hagalaz: a rune of protection, and a reminder that some doors should stay shut politely.

The closing rune warns about a decision made in the first hour of the morning, when you are still generous.

What to do

Let the answer be obvious and unimpressive.

Timing

Three weeks is the real timescale, whatever the deadline says.

Take with you

You can be calm and still be moving.
