Divination Offering: Ask the Ogham or the Runes

[jprussell]

Doing divination with the Runes was actually the first occult thing I learned to do, and since then I've also picked up the Ogham. I do a daily reading for myself with one or the other, and as needed for specific questions where I'm looking for guidance. But I've never done a reading for someone else, and I think it's time I give that a shot.

So! Do you have a question that some additional information might help? A decision you're contemplating? If so, let me know in the comments and I'll do my best to answer. Fair warning, as I said, this is my first shot at other folks' questions, so I can't guarantee how helpful or accurate I'll be! That being said, I wouldn't be offering this if I didn't think I could help.

In your comment, let me know your question, any details or context you think might be relevant that you're willing to share, and whether you'd like me to consult the Ogham or the Runes. For what it's worth, I tend to go to the Ogham for spiritual or magical questions and the Runes for life-direction or practical questions, but I've used both for all sorts of questions. If you have a simple "yes/no" question, I find that easier with the Runes.

With all that out of the way, fire away!
Thanks everyone, but this offer is now closed! Next time I'm offering readings, I'll post here again.

A reading

Thanks for doing this Jeff.
Question. "Will my healing endeavours make a difference?"
Background. I have retired from my mainstream job aged 57 and am receiving a small pension. I am trying using different methods to offer distance healing to friends family and pets. And if successful to the wider community via a website. It is early days yet and in the data collection stage. Hence to question.
Can you use runes please.

Runic reading

[ivn66]

Hi Jeff. Thank you for your kind offer.

I've never gotten a reading in runes before, so I'm very curious to try it out!

Recent events have had me thinking it'd be best if I relocate from the South back up to my native Northeast. I'd like to ask you and your runes if my current plans - destination and timeline of relocation - are good ones for me.

Rune Reading

[(Anonymous)]

Good morning Jeff,
I'm a long time reader on JMG's site and never comment! But I really enjoy what you put forth. I'd like to take you up on your offer of Rune reading. I have two questions:

1) I want to pursue a specific certification course, with which I have some familiarity of the subject matter. Will this course assist me in my long range goal of teaching and practicing outside the USA.

2) I'm interesting in working in one of six countries for the summer of 20224 in my chosen field and am prepared to do the "legwork", Does this venture look promising?

I don't have a dreamwidth account, so I'm hoping this will post. Thank you jeff

Visit

[jeremymcjohnson]

Do the runes say that I will be able to go visit my former co-worker R in Kelowna this summer? I'm already doing a four day mini vacation in Edmonton, but I owe the government a lot of money and I'm in hot water at work.

[open_space]

Thanks for doing this, Jeff!

My question for you is:

I've been battling for many years now with what should I do to live a more meaningful life and would like to see what the oracle of your choice has to say about it.

For one, I ended up trapped in a job I hate in a place that doesn't fulfill me and I frankly abhor.

What do I need to change or focus on to start moving in that direction?

What would be the outcome of me going back to México vs staying here in the US?

[tamanous2020]

Thanks for the rune reading!

Much like you, I'm trying to prepare for the long decline and specifically, towards figuring a trade or skill that'll be useful down the road. My history of office work has not exactly lead to a lot of options that really stick out as possibilities though, so divination would be appreciated.

Q- What trade/skill would I be both good at and would bring in enough resources/money for my family and I to live on?

Thanks,

Tamanous

I have a choice between two different pantheons to move forward with, we'll call them option G and option I (after my entry points to each). For whatever reason, I can not worship both, I have to pick one.

Can I get some idea of the direction each would take me in, and how it would work out long term?

Which job to take?

[(Anonymous)]

Hi Jeff,

So I don't know how to put this type of question to the oracles. I have 2 job offers: F or B? So I want to know which will be better. F is boring infrastructure and B is consultant, which I've always done, but in this case pays less and I have to come back to the place I just left, only in this new company. So I guess the question is which job will treat me better?

Thank you!

Hi Jeff

Just saw your comment on ecosophia; thanks for offering divinations. The one question I have on my mind at the moment is: What should we do about Mama Bunny? Not sure whether Ogham or Runes would be better - I have no experience with either.

Hi Jeff! I'd be interested. My question is, should I make my goal relating to generating income once this year from my business idea in 2023 more ambitious?

For background, I am in a PMC type role and over the past 3 years (wonder why), I have gradually made major shifts in myself and worldview part of which includes dabbling in my own divination (Coelbren alphabet), disentangling myself from influences I view as malign, and generally putting myself far more out in the world. During this time, I realized I didn't know what I wanted to do, so decided to just focus on developing discipline.

A few weeks ago my mind clicked and multiple areas seemed to coincide into an idea that I have been gradually developing and executing on with I hope an ambitious but realistic goal for myself with the long term vision of being self-employed. One aspect of my idea which really stuck with me was that I feel it would help bridge communication divides in truly positive ways, while also giving a path to freedom of my time and energy that I don't feel I have ever really had in hindsight.

I suppose this question is more for the Runes too.

Thank you for your help, I won't ask for any refunds ;) Let me know if some other information would be helpful too.

Will my arts and crafts society be successful?

[betwixtworlds]

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for doing this. I can see you are already swamped!

I want to take all of the old, unused buildings in my town (and other towns in my state) and get the civic leaders to help me make them available for struggling craftspeople: weavers, glassmakers, blacksmiths, etc. Sort of a "hotspot" for crafts and art. It's a state with lots of old mill towns with run down buildings.

So my question is, will creating this society of arts and crafts be successful?

Relationship question

[(Anonymous)]

Hello and thanks for doing this. It's always fascinating to see how someone else approaches readings.

My question: Is my selective dating approach the right one for myself and my son?

Background: I'm going through a horrible divorce, and am years into it but getting close to the end. I've decided to seek a new relationship but I'm finding myself limited in who I'm interested in pursuing. I'm only interested in single mothers of children near my son's age, who are interested in merging families eventually, who I otherwise find attractive. This severely limits my pool.

I don't have a preference for what system you use, and leave that up to you. Thanks!

New Job

[roobyalien]

Thank you for offering this. I enjoy reading your posts on MM.

I am about to start a new job and am wondering what you see on that subject.

Blessings to you.

Thinking of quitting my job

[(Anonymous)]

Hi Jeff- Could you please ask (whichever oracle is best) about quitting my job? “Should I…” questions are rarely given useful answers… so how to frame the question…. “What would be the consequences if quitting my current job?” might be a better way to phrase it. I don’t know. I’ve tried doing my own divination, but having difficulty interpreting the answer….perhaps because of my emotional involvement in the situation? Thanks much

Starting Devotion work with Loki

[(Anonymous)]

Hi Jeff, many thanks indeed for offering this service!

I recently had a divination done that advised me starting a devotional practice to Loki would be beneficial to me. This was done by a respected Heathen diviner. I'm not Heathen myself so the choice of pantheon (and, particularly, divinity!) was very surprising...

So I wouldn't mind a second opinion, something along the lines of whether taking up some sort of devotion work with Loki would be beneficial to me. I guess Runes would be more appropiate given the context, but I leave it to your discretion.

Many thanks again!

My relationship

Hello! I saw your comment on ecosophia and I’d be grateful for your time. I was wondering—what would help my relationship to improve?

Divination

[candace_k]

Hi Jeff, thanks for offering this. I am starting the process of job hunting. I would like to know if I should concentrate my efforts in any particular area, above and beyond just the normal steps of polishing up my resume and applying for positions that fit my skill set. Suffering from burn out from my last job, really hate job hunting in general.

[(Anonymous)]

Greetings, Jeff. Thank you for offering this service. I understand it's new for you to try divinations for others, but it appears your intuition has keyed in a lot of people's situations quite effectively so far.

I am seeking to move out of my current apartment into a cohousing or shared apartment situation, in response to a reduced budget. I sense this is a bit of a karmic trial for me, as I didn't take one great housing opportunity I had and now am choosing among more mediocre options. I'm less interested in identifying the best place to move into at this time, so much as understanding what I should understand about this housing search as it relates to me - what about me is being tested by this search? The way you've been phrasing question has been helpful - let's go with similar phrasing: "what does Anon need to know about his current housing search?" You can adjust the question as needed.

Thank you in advance!

Question family future

Hello with the current changes in politics and government control I find myself endlessly anxious about the future of my family. Particularly growing children.
My question is about my family situation over the years to come, what to look out for and what's likely
