Old Norse Rune Poem
Naudhr
Constraint gives scant choice;
a naked man is chilled by the frost.

Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem
Nyd
Trouble is oppressive to the heart;
yet often it proves a source of help and salvation
to the children of men, to everyone who heeds it betimes.

The Icelandic Rune Poem
Constraint
Grief of the bond-maid
and state of oppression
and toilsome work.

Need. It's always a good idea to differentiate between needs and wants. A pivotal time to focus on what is important - your needs are highlighted. A tough period, but it clarifies the path, and the remedy is clear. The difficulty is breaking free of the bonds in order to take action, to satisfy one's needs.

The passion to move you through the times of discontent. Ideas sparking the tinder and manifesting outside of the conceptual.

Distress and the relief from that distress.

Naudhiz is another two edged rune. Need implies lacking, and hardship. Freya Aswynn links this with the future, the norn Skald, Niffleheim (the low underworld of mists), and fears. A need is something inherently connected to the future, as something to be fulfilled or quested for. It inspires action. It is also a signal of distress, should you make your need public. The need fires burn to call for help.

This rune is often used for protection, as a ward against trouble, to call for help, or to aid in meeting a need.

The positive side is in dealing with a need in a timely manner. Should the need be fulfilled early, hardship is avoided and prosperity maintained. It can serve as a warning, of dangers unforseen. Heeded, safety is found. Needs are fulfilled.

The fire burns in the night to ward off cold and preserve life. Fire is a basic essencial need, like food and shelter.

Upon ingestion I see a plane flying in a tight loop, this loop becomes a silver band. It is interupted with flashes of pornographic images.

Are we not bound by a desire to copulate?

The plane flys, but in circles, divine perpose and perception, curtailed by lust and desire, until it forms the band of morality and society that holds us fast. Marriage, the rules of engagement, War.

I dream of Paul Daniels, conversing without my 'norm'al distateful view of him. He is stripped of Debbie, his partner and sex object, and he is as I.

I am crushed and plagued by old deep scar tissue of emtion, torurous realms of self pity and pain. My material wishes have been crushed by the acts of others, my desire cannot cope.

What do you honestly want?
Remember to include all of you, that means the 'shadow' part too.

Angel vs Devil, the internal dynamic of the cosmos since creation, the duality of insanity. Time to acknowledge how much of one is sitasteful to ones image of oneself.

Spiteful, nasty, hurtful and lewd. He's such a lovely boy

One cannot forget that I am both a lover and a murderer, I wish union and division, I see life in death and love in fear. Do we make love or fuck?

Only when you see that whole picture can you really sort it out.

I feel my DNA's desire to recreate within duality.

The blade digs into the pale wood. One straight line: unity. A being standing alone and complete. I angle the knife and sever the line; now the being is cut, divided. Bereft.

For love's sake...

Division; and following division, the search for union once more.

Odin as Oth fares afield on long journeys. Freyja follows him, searching endlessly for her lost love, weeping tears of gold. We each of us seek that wandering god in our own ways, and in our sorrowing quest for union with the Divine we bring forth riches.

Strife inspires. Mother of invention and all that.
