The Weekly Spiritual Reading is here! 😄

In External Influences, we see Okapi. This unique creature reminds us to stop trying to fit in with the crowd. Let your light shine and enjoy delving into the things that make you different. It will be important to remember to listen and observe your surroundings. The spirits are whispering and speaking all around you, so meditate and observe so that you are not missing the signs all around you. They are offering you opportunities to listen, learn, and grow, so take advantage of the heightened awareness growing within and around you. Get outside of yourself and spend time in nature practicing how to be quiet and invisible. The world is ripe with opportunities and messages. Take pride in the skills and uniqueness you possess without strutting yourself about and don't ignore the signs around you. Listen well and practice on how to hear messages from others.

The week's Rune is Kenaz! Kenaz is a personal favorite of mine. It is the flaming torch of illumination and knowledge. Kenaz is the guiding light and the inner fire within. It is this inner passion that fuels our research, our hobbies, and our loves. The name Kenaz originates from the old Norse word 'kenna' meaning 'to perceive'. Kenaz is the rune of mind and spirit, the inner fire of a spiritual being with light. It is also represented by the forge, by sacrifice, and the hearth. It is the controlled fire which aids us in creation. Kenaz gives us the ability and inspiration to create. It is root of emotional creativity and creation. The power and light is within you! At the same time, Kenaz also represents the fire of passionate love and interaction between polarities. It can aid us in understanding and enhancing relationships not just romantic, but also with our communities and family. It bonds us to those around us. Remember the passion of fire is within your soul and can bring about manifestation and transformation. Take this week to build and grow! Express yourself and use this controlled inner fire to create. This is the perfect rune for artists, writers, musicians, or any individuals who use their inner passion to create. Now is the time! Use the surge of energy in the world this week to burst forth with your resilience, intelligence, and ability to create. Do not let it go to waste. The world desires and craves the artists and musicians, the storytellers and the creators. Dig deep and remember your skills. Use your passion to show that the world is full of light and beauty. Feel your inner fire and create, bond, grow!

This week's Internal Influence card is seen as the Horse spirit guide. Although this week will be a test to figure out a new routine or to balance social engagements, know that you are strong and that the wild spirit within you is shown when the horse appears! The horse spirit guide is a sign to release the bindings that have been holding you back! Stop doubting. Stop restraining yourself due to your fear. You have much more strength than you believe. Work on combining this power with gentle patience and compassion in order to overcome any ordeal you may feel within you. The horse is known for it's connections to freedom and travel. It was a key component in the spread of civilization and reminds us of both the wild abandon of a free spirit as well as the strength of a hardworking ethic. It is ok to develop and change over time. Allow your mind to travel and grow as you experience this week. It is ok to let go and move forward to advance physically and mentally. In doing so, you may open up abilities such as clairvoyance or the ability to see magic and the light in others. If can be intimidating to grow, but it will only aid you in becoming the best of who you really are.
