I seek Her and find Her, filled with abounding love,
Standing here upon earth, or looking high above.
She does not rule ore me, or linger till I fall,
I need not fear the judgment, within deaths silent call.
I never dread Her anger, for She understands my heart,
I walk my path knowing, She shall never part.
In truth and light

Power Animal of the Day: Polar Bear
The Polar Bear
Strength Perseverance Insulation
The polar bear is enormously strong and full of courage. He will help you stand up to the challenges of life, so you are never overwhelmed, no matter how large the challenges are. For you are the polar bear, and you do not back down.
The polar bear will also teach you to thrive in environments that may be hostile to others. He will give you powerful insulation, so that you are always safe and sound, no matter what is around you. While others are losing strength and power, you will just breathe in deeply and pull warm polar bear energy around you and within you.
With polar bear energy within you, you will have the strength and perseverance to handle any challenges that life brings to you, no matter how great. Just breathe in polar bear energy and you will be filled with self-belief; you will know that you are everything you need to be.
The polar bear is also a master at camouflage. When you need to disappear into yourself and find peace for a moment, just close your eyes and cover your nose and you will disappear for a time. Then, rested and rejuvenated, spring to life, full of enough energy to cross the arctic ices. After all, you are the polar bear and power is yours.
Isa of Heimdall’s Aett popped out today 
pronounced “ee-saw” (I: Ice) A challenge or frustration. Psychological blocks to thought or activity, including grievances. Standstill, or a time to turn inward and wait for what is to come, or to seek clarity. This rune reinforces runes around it.
Frost has blanketed the earth. It seems that everything in nature is dead. But winter is not forever. You have to sacrifice a part of your personality for the sake of future rebirth. If you are carrying or nurturing a child now, you may feel isolated from the buzz of working life, and longing for more social contact. But the lesson of this rune is to see the need to free yourself from past habits and projects, and to prepare for something much more important. Perhaps this is a gestation period and you are putting new schemes and ideas together. You may feel that these are unrealistic and that everyone and everything is against you, but this is just like a winter in your personal life, a period of rest and secret inner preparation. Wait for spring. It will come without fail.
Isa Merkstave (Isa cannot be reversed, but may lie in opposition): Ego-mania, dullness, blindness, dissipation. Treachery, illusion, deceit, betrayal, guile, stealth, ambush, plots. (Note: the reversed or merkstave definitions are included only for reference as they apply to a multi-rune cast and not to a single rune that’s drawn blind from the pouch)
As with all, take only what feels right to you and disregard the rest.
