Your question What is costing me more than it is worth?

The spread

  1. What is rooted Raidho The journey, and the correct order of its stages. What to avoid: Movement without a destination.
  2. What is rising Kenaz The controlled fire: craft, warmth, a skill being learned. What to avoid: A talent used only to impress.
  3. What must be cut Fehu Moveable wealth: money, cattle, the things that can walk away. What to avoid: Greed disguised as security.

Under the sky over Washington, D.C., the runes fall close together, which suggests the week's problems share one root.

Kenaz in the middle is a rune of stillness: not a pause before action, but the action itself.

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