Your question What should I protect this month?

The spread

  1. What is rooted Kenaz The controlled fire: craft, warmth, a skill being learned. What to avoid: A talent used only to impress.
  2. What is rising Algiz Protection, and the instinct to raise an arm. What to avoid: Guarding something that is not under threat.
  3. What must be cut Hagalaz Disruption from outside. Not personal, not permanent. What to avoid: Blaming yourself for weather.

With First Quarter overhead and Overcast outside, the cast begins with what is rooted rather than what is urgent.

The heart of the cast is Algiz, which describes a negotiation you are treating as a conflict.

Then the reading names the person you would ask for advice, and quietly notes that you already know what they would say.
