The spread

What is rooted Kenaz The controlled fire: craft, warmth, a skill being learned. What to avoid: A talent used only to impress.
What is rising Hagalaz Disruption from outside. Not personal, not permanent. What to avoid: Blaming yourself for weather.
What must be cut Tiwaz Justice, honour and the willingness to lose fairly. What to avoid: Principles held at the cost of relationships.

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

At the centre, Hagalaz: a rune of the journey, and of the difference between leaving and escaping.

The third rune is the cutting one, and it is blunt: something in this week has to be let go before it can be replaced.

Take the meeting walking.

The first attempt should be small enough to repeat.

Slow is a strategy, not a failure.
