102113 - BerkanoR in water, IngwazR in Earth

Today looks to be a good day to step back emotionally.  Feed the work in progress & release expectations.  It will bloom.

******************************************

Mostly I interpreted this, for me, as another "one step at a time" reading.  Focus on the work, not on the future gains from the work.

The emotional distance advice did apply today.  I did a house cleansing, and finished it with a song.  I feel buildings hold emotional vibrations, and the energies linger because they get stuck in grooves, like water creating the Grand Canyon.  I also anthropomorphize everything -- though houses are harder for me to get a sense of.  Perhaps because of who serves whom.  But that's a meander for another day.

So, though the cleansing was for the comfort of those living within the house, it was also for the house itself.  The intent of the song was to give the house a space of time to remember, a tool to help it retain that "shower fresh" feeling.  The song I chose was "The Song Remembers When" by Trisha Yearwood.  I think it's an excellent song, if you listen just right, for fond recollection, and for taking a moment.

However, it is a favorite of mine for recollection, and it can be a very emotional song.  So today I got to practice keeping my personal connection out of the work - a first for me & singing.  Usually, the aim in singing is to convey the emotion (the level of conveyance being dependant upon the karaoke crowd.)  I did actually visualize myself stepping back, when the tears started to well up, and am satisfied with the result.  It probably helped that I was at the end of the cleansing, instead of the beginning.

Even rune readings, now I think about it, require a bit of emotional distance, especially if one is reading for someone one knows.

I hope you have a great day!
