Day 158 - runes

Ahem.

I impulse bought them from the British Museum shop, along with King Harald's Saga by Snori Sturluson. It's gripping and fast paced and so far I have got to part 34, where Harald and King Svein of Denmark are about to fight it out over who deserves Denmark more. In this part, I like that there is a court poet known as Thorleik the Handsome. He must've been very very handsome to be known for it.

I also bought Chronicles of the Vikings by RI Page, which I mostly picked because it has a chapter entitled 'the unheroic life' that comes straight after a chapter called 'the heroic life'.

Anyway! I have been practising with the runes (put hand in bag, extract rune, consult little book, feel baffled). Apparently, long distance rune-reading is quite acceptable. Please do feel free to ask them anything you like!! (Answers may not make sense, may contain nuts)

You drew gebo: partnership, a gift.

Gifts, both in the sense of sacrifice and of generosity, indicating balance. All matters in relation to exchanges, including contracts, personal relationships and partnerships.

This rune is an indication that partnership is at ahdn. In love, business, or partnergin of every kind, you are put on notice not to collapse yourself into that union. Remember to let the winds of heaven dance between you.

So... make of that what you will!

...well, I kind of knew it would be something like that. ^^' I played with my tarot cards last night, and they said quite clearly that I think way too much about my relationships, and that it interferes with my concentration.

But hey, that balance thing sounds nice! ^^
