“Lessons & Gifts of 2024/2025- Collective
The Main Lesson Of 2024:Gebo ( Generosity, Balance)
The Blessing 2024 Bestowed: To the Sea
Main Energy for The New Year: Dagaz (Awakening, Breakthroughs)
The Blessing 2025 Promises: Fork in The Road
The Main lesson of 2024 gifted by Gebo, emphasized the importance of partnerships & boundaries built on mutual respect and trust. These interactions were meant to be meaningful & mutually beneficial, leaving both parties transformed. The joining of powers, rooted in trade & reciprocity, required acceptance and willing sacrifice from each party to gain greater benefits from their union. Through these exchanges, knowledge, skills, ideas, and powers could be shared between allies who were eager to learn from each other. Fair compensation remained crucial to prevent resentment from weakening both the bond and its benefits. This reflects the Universal law that “you get what you give”. During Hurricane Helene, we witnessed this principle as people felt compelled to help others, sacrificing their time & resources. Their genuine assistance, offered without expectation of return, demonstrated how authentic generosity creates lasting positive impact.
​
The blessing of 2024 confirmed who would stand by us in difficult times-when set adrift out to sea. While navigating alone allowed us to process our emotions & thoughts, sometimes we needed to “go with the flow” trusting that the pieces would eventually fit together. At other times, we had to chart our own course. A lonely process at times, but there’s no looking back now. This journey also required patience rather than forcing our way through obstacles, waiting for paths to naturally clear.
​
As we enter 2025, Dagaz, the rune of dawn, heralds a period of transition & revelation. This positive symbol represents the cyclical nature of existence, bold change, & the transformation of one thing into its opposite. As night morphs into day, shadows fade & new light reveals remaining secrets. In this clarity, we see new worlds, new possibilities & new opportunities arise as others fade away. Bringing subtle yet incremental changes, transforming living conditions and evolving toward greater harmony, while providing understanding of problems that remained obscure until now. From this illuminated perspective, we can chart a new course & plan for the future.
This brings us to the blessing 2025 promises: Fork in the Road- a moment of truth requiring conscious, honest choices & acceptance of their consequences. While there are paths pointing backward & sideways, only one leads forward. This choice must be made independently, without allowing external circumstances to decide. Remaining in indecision or anxiety isn't an option, as only ONE path leads forward to improved circumstances.
​
Overall energy represented by both the 4 dice & the Fork in the Road (reduced to 4) indicates breaking past what limits us to re-carve a new sense of stability elsewhere.

“The Gifts of Capricorn: Leadership, Responsibility & Humor”
Where Do I Need to Take Initiative? Knight of Swords
​
The Knight of Swords, the most action-oriented Knight, excels as a keen problem solver & skilled fixer, grasping situational nuances quickly & cleverly overcoming obstacles. Utilizing multiple talents, this self-motivated & goal-driven energy cuts to the heart of issues, speaking directly & bluntly while focusing on logical, sensible actions. Others naturally step aside, recognizing this decisive force. When your logic reveals a better path, take decisive action. Share your expertise & knowledge without waiting for others to take the lead. While feathers may be ruffled, your insights may be sorely needed. Yet exercise caution: avoid forcing positions or dismissing opposing viewpoints. Balance your natural directness with sensitivity toward others.
​
How Can I Be Practical? Three of Wands (Sun in Aries)
​
Leadership requires more than comfort with giving orders; it demands demonstration through action. Provide clear instruction so your vision can be actualized. Maintain inspiring confidence while keeping perspective, focusing on the bigger picture rather than getting derailed by small problems. Remember that Threes indicate social collaboration. Success requires cooperation through careful planning & alignment of competent people with your vision. Bring your fierce determination, enterprise, decisiveness, & strong willpower to the table, while remaining ready to face challenges with grace.
​
When Do I Need to Be Less Serious? Three of Pentacles
(Mars in Capricorn)
​
Even the most determined drive can become too intense, especially for team members working alongside you. As a natural hard worker who takes initiative, remember the importance of workplace harmony. Inject camaraderie & humor to cut through intensity and rally others to your cause. Use tact & heart to temper your powerful drive. Create opportunities for team building through group activities that allow everyone to loosen up. Make space for casual conversation & non-work discussions. Allow time for jokes and lightness. These moments of connection beyond tasks aren't just breaks from the work; they're essential investments in team cohesion & motivation. Foster genuine connections that make the intense periods more manageable & the collaborative spirit stronger.

"Beyond Battle: Moving from Defense to Cultivating Growth"
What You Learned This Year: 9 Of Wands
Where You Are Currently: 8 Of Wands.
What You Still Need to Learn: 7 Of Pentacles
This year revealed your capacity for the long haul. You've discovered your profound strength & courage, demonstrating remarkable patience & stamina when facing continuous challenges. Your faith in yourself has just deepened, allowing you to meet opposition & adversity with fortitude like a seasoned vet. Each past difficulty has forged you into someone stronger & more resilient—those hoping for your surrender will be sorely disappointed. You know how to survive, but what we want to do is thrive. A pattern emerges: pause from the battle, then go-go, only to pause again to question your choices. This rhythm has prompted a crucial reevaluation of where you invest your time, energy, resources, & attention. In other words, how you can protect your long-term vision through strategic short-term action, followed by a pause allowing reassessment of your path forward. The 8 of Wands reveals you’re dispersing your energy in multiple directions, particularly toward cultivating personal interests. The Wolf ‘s presence warns of approaching threats that could consume accumulated rewards while you tend to other matters. Although you possess the strength to handle this in-coming threat, discernment becomes crucial. Hypervigilance can lead to exhaustion—constantly extinguishing minor fires that might naturally fade leaves little energy/will/ interest for meaningful creation. The progression from Nine to Seven indicates potential vitality loss if this pattern persists. In the heat of action, a deception could lead to unfortunate outcomes. Learn to take strategic pauses to evaluate both current creations & future harvests, protecting investments that show promise. Are these exchanges yielding worthwhile results? What's has been your return on investment? A lesson emerges to not waste time & effort on things that will ultimately disappoint. Develop a keen eye for detecting genuine threats to your investments, particularly those showing potential or facing direct danger-and how to course correct when the payoff just isn’t there. Your loyal Wolf keeping watch reminds you that while threats may lurk, your instincts serve as a reliable guide to detect deception. Ultimately, this isn't about maintaining constant vigilance but rather cultivating wise discernment—protecting what truly matters while allowing space for growth & fulfillment.
Guidance for December 8, 2024:
“The Storm that Cleaned House”
What I need to receive this month: Cardinal (Confidence)
What I need to give this month: Condor (Dead Things)
The illuminating result: Unicorn (The Sparkle returns)
​
Lydia in A Loge-Mary Cassatt
“It’s blowing up a storm”
A sudden shake up that seemed to have blown in from nowhere, challenges you to face, rather than flee from, self-doubt & anxiety. You could use a bit of Cardinal’s vitality, confidence, & resilience to weather this winter. The rainbow, just like the Cardinal, reminds us that hope & promise persist even in life's darkest moments. Remember: every experience carries both physical & spiritual significance. The Universe seeks to correct anything out of balance in this physical life & a transformational storm will blow-in to level the field when equilibrium needs to be restored. So, you start over & build again. Cardinal appears again as a sign from a departed loved one signaling their support, cheering you on from beyond precisely when you need it most. This winged messenger reminds you to trust your connection to your Divine intelligence, which guides your steps, however uncertain they may feel. Currently too close to the aftermath to discern the reality of what’s taken place, you're in a tailspin & have lost perspective. Not realizing you have just rose above the limitations of whatever has been cleared away. Condor invites you to practice loving detachment, releasing the need to control outcomes or others. Instead, focus on organization and purification. As nature's clean-up crew, Condor assists in clearing away what the storm has felled - surrender the decaying elements of your life to this sacred process. Unicorn, a rare and magical being not unlike yourself, often appears when you are having a particularly difficult time to offer encouragement & a well-needed boost. A new momentum will be created. Your virtue & integrity will remain at the core of everything you do, recognized as truly irreplaceable & valued. Once the dust settles & Condor's cleansing work completes, you'll reclaim your childlike faith & ability to perceive life's magic & wonders once again. You'll emerge as the "belle of the ball," enjoying your place in the spotlight. Do not fear standing out boldly - perhaps even creating a little magical drama of your own.
Guidance for December 1, 2024:
“The Gifts of Sagittarius: Optimism, Fun, Exploration”
Where I can be adaptable? Absolute Fool
Areas of massive expansion: Incompatibility
A Secret worth exposing: The Mediator
Meaningful wisdom to share: Phoenix
The journey begins as Sagittarius prompts us to question our deepest attachments - our beliefs and vision of Self - while honoring our fundamental need for expansion & new experiences. There's an aspect of these beliefs that may not fully align with reality, yet we often stubbornly cling to illusions, depleting our vitality in battles with invisible foes & unresolvable conflicts. We may see ourselves as more evolved than we're willing to admit. True growth requires flexibility in how we envision our authentic Self - both identity & beliefs. While Sagittarius ignites an adventurous drive for "something more," challenging us to explore the world's possibilities, this quest must stem from a genuine desire to learn from diverse philosophies/teachings. Here lies the potential for massive expansion. The Sagittarian energy, while rich in faith & meaning-seeking, can sometimes zealously impose its beliefs on others. The opportunity now is to promote your ideals while respecting others' autonomy. Take the courageous step of viewing life through others' perspectives. This expands not only your horizons but transforms who you are & how you feel by embracing diverse thoughts & experiences. Remember: opposing viewpoints, though as different as day and night, need not be reconciled to be valued - each holds its own wisdom. The Mediator, ruled by Mercury, provides a secret tip: While examining yourself, maintain open space for objective self-reflection. This receptivity brings unexpected gifts. Deeper understanding comes when you adopt the Observer's stance, gathering information neutrally before forming opinions. Let diplomatic communication be your guide in forming connections. Make this receptive approach your “new philosophy” in exploring the world. Life rarely remains static, & current disorientating “big picture” changes reflect this truth. We experience many small deaths within a lifetime, each revealing new versions of ourselves. Here the Phoenix invites liberation from rigidity - a rebirth possible only when we fully release the old. While the transformation is rejuvenating for the soul, it is incredibly painful & destructive to the ego. Here, Sagittarius offers its greatest gift: Faith to navigate the unknown path ahead. Trust in the unseen & embrace the unfolding journey with confidence. As your former self-vision transforms, let it shape you into someone more open-hearted, tolerant, & inspirational - a true spreader of joy
