Your question What is the smallest honest step?

The spread

  1. What is rooted Algiz Protection, and the instinct to raise an arm. What to avoid: Guarding something that is not under threat.
  2. What is rising Hagalaz Disruption from outside. Not personal, not permanent. What to avoid: Blaming yourself for weather.
  3. What must be cut Nauthiz Need and constraint. The useful pressure of a limited budget. What to avoid: Scarcity thinking applied to a full life.

Under the sky over Washington, D.C., the runes fall close together, which suggests the week's problems share one root.

Hagalaz holds the middle and points at craft: the part of the work that only improves with repetition.

The final rune is a rune of waiting, which the old alphabet insists is also a kind of work.
