Your question Who am I becoming, slowly, without deciding?

The spread

  1. What is rooted Nauthiz Need and constraint. The useful pressure of a limited budget. What to avoid: Scarcity thinking applied to a full life.
  2. What is rising Hagalaz Disruption from outside. Not personal, not permanent. What to avoid: Blaming yourself for weather.
  3. What must be cut Algiz Protection, and the instinct to raise an arm. What to avoid: Guarding something that is not under threat.

The cast begins slowly, because the old alphabet rewards patience and punishes hurry.

Hagalaz holds the middle and points at a boundary that has been redrawn so often it is no longer a line.

The cast ends on the rune of inheritance, which suggests this week's problem belonged to someone else first.
