Your question What would I do if nobody were watching?

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 Kenaz The controlled fire: craft, warmth, a skill being learned. What to avoid: A talent used only to impress.
  3. What must be cut Jera Harvest in its own season. Nothing to force. What to avoid: Expecting the result in the planting month.

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

The reading's core is Kenaz, naming the thing that must be cut so the rest can grow.

The twist is about sequence. Doing these three things in the wrong order doubles the work.

What to do

Choose the option that needs no explaining.

Timing

The first attempt should be small enough to repeat.

Take with you

Doing it badly still counts as doing it.
