wholeness, life force, the sun's energy, my new year rune. i feel depleted, but i have reserves to tap into. we're living in a time of harrowing discontinuity. spiritually, we're always at the beginning. suffering means to bear, to undergo, to endure, to carry out or put under. what is going on across the street, and in the zones of occupation and genocide, holding the thread of the unraveling, what we undergo as we carry on.

you may see fit to withdraw. know that such a retreat is a retreat in strength, inward, for balance. it's a hard time to live in the world.

the rune says to open up and let the light into your secret parts, admit something long denied. picture the sun's rays enter into your heart, and streaming out again, into the world.
