Your question How do I stop carrying this?

The spread

  1. What is rooted Ansuz Speech, advice, and a message from someone who knows more. What to avoid: Listening to everyone and deciding nothing.
  2. What is rising Thurisaz A gate and a thorn. The obstacle that is also the way through. What to avoid: Reacting to provocation on reflex.
  3. What must be cut Tiwaz Justice, honour and the willingness to lose fairly. What to avoid: Principles held at the cost of relationships.

Before the first rune, a note: these are letters before they are symbols, and letters are meant to be read.

The middle rune is Thurisaz, a rune of gift and obligation, which is the hardest kind of arithmetic.

The last rune is unreadable from the outside, meaning the answer depends on a fact you have not looked up yet.

What to do

Put the decision on paper with two columns.

Timing

Act within four days or wait a full cycle.

Take with you

Doing it badly still counts as doing it.
