COLLECTIVE READINGS

Today’s Runemal and Lunar Right Action Aspects, Today’s Planetary Algorithm, and Morals and Missives are posted daily and cover general collective readings suitable for all.

~TODAY’S RUNEMAL~

The Runes constitute one of the most ancient forms and means of divination. Used in concert with the daily nature of the Moon, the Ancients discovered the perfect guide for personal conduct and timely action.

~APRIL 25, 2026~

HAGALAZ

KEYWORDS: CHANGE, INVENTION, LIBERATION

Virtues: Complete Change of Direction

Daily Theme: HAGALAZ is known as the Rune of DISRUPTION. Every now and then a little shake-up of the status quo is a good thing. It makes us appreciate what we already have and helps us to be aware of changes that can make things even better. Do we like it? No. But we can quickly learn to appreciate it. As a Rune of Elemental disruption, there may be events that are entirely NOT under your control. Stay with the program because as you gradually come to your senses you will see where change needs to happen. A relationship, be it personal or business may fail. Consider it significant or even a blessing. It needs to go. Hagalaz need not be painful, sometimes unexpected actions or activities are a good thing. The unexpected can hold miracles within itself as well. The unexpected can be a positive aspect. The unexpected need not be an earthquake or a tragedy. Disruption can be created in positive ways too. Sometimes we have become “rutted” in our lifestyle and need a good push to get out of the rut. So, move it!

Today, crystal practitioners and advocates should work with Onyx (promotes vigor, steadfastness, stamina, self-confidence and self-control).

Lunar Right Action Aspects: If you are feeling emotional pressure try not to overreact or be self-indulgent. Judgement won’t help either. Wipe your slate clean and start over. Change a few plans if necessary.

In this book, Jurgens Pieterse brings these runes to life for the modern reader. With warmth and clarity, he explores each rune in depth.

MORALS AND MISSIVES

Advice From La Strega …

It is wise to acknowledge that the Earth does not belong to us, we belong to the Earth. To say otherwise is ego and not wisdom. The goal of life is to live in harmony with nature. If you look deeply into nature, you will gain an understanding of everything that exists. If you can adopt the pace of nature, you will find her secret is patience. With patience you can accomplish all. If your life is not working – change it. How? Focus on what IS working. What nurtures you? What small thing gives you joy? Don’t tell me it’s nothing. Don’t tell me you no longer care. When you do that, it lets me know you are lazy and have allowed yourself to slip into a toxic space. Examine it. You have a choice. You have always had a choice – To do or not do – To accept or reject. Why are you accepting what is dark within you and without you and denying what is light and fresh? It is time to align. Only you know what that is. Push out from the inner you. Stop moaning and bitching. Change what can be changed, work with what cannot. What do you want to learn? What do you want to share? What do you want in your spiritual practices? When and how do you connect with your others? Seek the balance even if you have been leaning heavily in one direction for a while. Care for your body as well as your mind and spirit. Let your inner self express itself. As the expression goes, ‘dance as if no one was looking’. Learn to read signs and omens in nature. There is magic within them. There is magic within you. Use it.

PUDDLE

Metaphysically, a puddle can symbolize the potential and mystery of the moment, representing themes of risk, introspection, and the cyclical nature of existence. It can be seen as a brief, contained reflection of the sky, highlighting concepts like joy, uncertainty, and the decision to leap into the unknown. Puddles can also represent a temporary, stagnant state that will eventually evaporate and be transformed. A puddle can represent a moment of commitment, a “leap” that involves uncertainty, risk, and potential discomfort but also joy and momentum. Puddles are temporary. They can represent the state of being “giving ourselves over” to a process before rising again to transform, much like water evaporating to form clouds. They can also represent a stagnant or non-beneficial accumulation of water that will eventually dry up. In some philosophical contexts, a puddle analogy is used to illustrate how life adapts to its environment, with the puddle representing life and the shape of the ground it fills representing the environment. Dreaming of a puddle often suggests an encounter with transient emotions or reflections on your immediate environment. It can symbolize moments of temporary clarity or minor disruptions, reflecting a brief pause for introspection or the navigation of small, immediate challenges in your path. Water contained becomes the puddle, thought collected, demanding new depths of introspection. Like the glass mirror there is a world above and below, the surface and endless bottom, so the two perspectives are twinned held cheek by jowl in a single vision.

CONTEMPLATION STATION
With Tom Montalk

Where Are The Good Guys?

The “Forces of Light” do more to show the door than to force people to walk through it. That is the idea behind the Law of Non-Interference or Non-Intervention. And the door must be shown in a careful way to maximize freewill. There are some people who either cannot or will not currently choose higher knowledge. What will the Forces of Light do about them? Nothing really, except make sure that those who have chosen the light of love and wisdom are given just enough protection and guidance to pull their own weight and face their own consequences without unnecessary interference. The times ahead will see increasing polarization, a turning up of the contrast. When you increase the contrast of a murky photo, rather than everything becoming brighter, dark gets darker while light gets lighter. Likewise, there will be entire segments of the population who will become stronger in their ignorance and darkness as time goes on, while others will rise into spiritual empowerment.

The first will sink into apathy, depravity, nihilism, denial, psychopathy, delusion, and destructiveness. If all you see is that side of the equation, then you may understandably believe we’re all doomed. But that sinking counterweight is paralleled by an equal and opposite rising of those who are open to spiritual growth, those who are engaging their own intuition, intelligence, and goodwill toward the spirit within others. While they may not grow much in number, they will indeed grow in strength and power. Number isn’t everything; sometimes it’s more about quality.

The Forces of Light are performing surgery on our planet… that means a delicate operation that works through us rather than upon us. It appears to involve incarnating into human bodies and turning over the system from the inside while the other half of the team stays in the higher realms and makes sure those below get a fair shot at doing their jobs. So why don’t they just burst in with phasers blazing, take out the corrupt shadow elite, and free humanity from tyranny and deception? Partly because a large portion of humanity has yet to learn to be responsible, strong, independent, and discerning by going through a collective dark night of the soul. They have yet to be initiated via trial by fire. Consequently, they are weak, ignorant, and complacent. If dark forces were to disappear right now in an instant, one half of the problem would be solved. But the other half, people’s freewill decisions to support the Matrix Control System and their vice for suffering abuse and manipulation, that half cannot be eradicated. Even if aliens came down right now and provided evidence of the shadow elite’s manipulation of human history and what the negative aliens have been up to, it would be ineffective at the current point in time. People seeing that on a television screen isn’t the same as living through it and being forced to fight it due to having nothing left to lose. Look how scared and pacified Americans are today; protests are symbolic gestures rather than fights for survival. So long as the internet works, television glows, grocery stores are filled with beer and potato chips, and roads are open for travel, nothing will change collectively because people will always have a cozy shell to withdraw into and thereby ignore the problems of the world. It’s only when their backs are up against the wall that their mettle will be tested. And for that reason, even if the “New World Order” went poof, the weakness, ignorance, and complacency would remain. Within three or four generations, a new generation of psychopaths would be in power again because a nation of sheep begets a government of wolves. So the dark presence on earth serves an educational purpose up to a point, and until that point is reached, total open intervention by positive forces would be detrimental to mankind’s spiritual evolution.

The other issue is that things are proceeding along a curriculum that benefits multiple sides, thus neither positive nor negative forces seek to shortchange that progression. For instance, if free energy technology were unleashed upon the world this very moment, that would change things so drastically that a lot of the learning lessons or world events that masses have yet to go through will be denied. It’s like a movie whose dilemma is suddenly resolved halfway through, then the rest of the movie is a waste of time. That is why free energy inventors who are too overzealous in getting their stuff out there receive preventative assassination from the dark powers, and why the forces of light do not have much authority in helping them prematurely end the world script.

It’s been said that alien disclosure or free energy release would crash the economy, lead to wars and famine, and undermine civilization due to all the chaos it would case. But if the world has already gone through economic collapse, wars and famine, and an overturning of civilization due to chaos, then alien disclosure and free energy dissemination can happen because it simply can’t get any worse. And by then, the lesson will have been learned. Thankfully, in parallel to the destruction of the old, there will also be an arising of a new positive civilization based on gnostic, spiritual, meta-technological principles. But that, too, takes time.

So… everything in time. It takes faith. Forget the ignorant people, put aside the darkness, focus on what is lightening up within you, focus on what is awakening within the few people that you know to be waking up. Strength matters more than number. There is a plan, and it is being implemented, but it must also be subtle and delicate and sophisticated, and it must be executed with masterful timing. We know from personal experience that synchronicity and destiny work with masterful timing in our own lives. Can this force of synchronicity not also work globally? Perhaps the positive intervention is so sophisticated that not even we, the foot-soldiers, are always aware of its workings.

PEOPLE ETHICS

As people in this world, and good citizens, we are concerned not only with what actions are morally right and morally wrong, but what makes actions morally right or morally wrong. The key is to understand the reasoning that we employ in ethical decision making so we can become more proficient.

What Makes a Person Ethical?

Moral Principles: Ethical individuals adhere to a code of conduct that guides them in deciding what is right and wrong.

Beyond Self-Interest: Ethical thinking goes beyond personal desires to consider the interests of other people, communities, and even society as a whole.

Character and Habits: Being an ethical person requires developing good character, including consistent habits of behavior.

Integrity and Accountability: Ethical people are dependable, keep their promises, and take responsibility for their actions.

Decision-Making: They make choices that uphold moral standards, even in difficult or potentially compromising situations.

Ethical frameworks are perspectives useful for reasoning what course of action may provide the most moral outcome. In many cases, a person may not use a reasoning process but rather do what they simply feel is best at the time. Others may reflexively use a principle they learned from their family, peers, religious teachings or own experiences. The study of ethics has provided many principles that can aid in ethical decision making.

Virtue ethics: What is moral is what makes us the best person we could be.
Deontology: What is moral is what follows from absolute moral duties.
Utilitarianism: What is morally right is what generates the best outcome for the largest number of people.
Rights-based Ethics : What is moral is that which is in accord with everyone’s rights.
Care-based Ethics : What is moral is that which promotes healthy relationships and the well-being of individuals and their interdependence.

ONE SONG

by RUMI

Every war and every conflict
between human beings has happened
because of some disagreement about names.

It is such an unnecessary foolishness,
because just beyond the arguing
there is a long table of companionship
set and waiting for us to sit down.

What is praised is one, so the praise is one too,
many jugs being poured into a huge basin.
All religions, all this singing, one song.

The differences are just illusion and vanity.
Sunlight looks a little different
on this wall than it does on that wall
and a lot different on this other one,
but it is still the same light.

We have borrowed these clothes,
these time-and-space personalities,
from a light, and when we praise,
we are pouring them back in.

Translation by Coleman Barks

Numerical Connotations

What’s in a number? The Ancients believed numbers were universally connected. Scientifically, the universe is described by fundamental constants and numbers. The number for the Universe is 42. What unlocks the key to the Universe? According to Nikola Tesla, 3, 6, and 9 unlock the secrets of the Universe. He believed these digits were sacred and could unlock the mysteries of existence itself.

Numbers found their way into the meanings of old texts and even the Bible. Everyone and everything have a number or numbers associated with their lives as can be discovered through Gematria and/or Numerology in contemporary times. There isn’t a single universally agreed-upon “most divine number,” as different cultures, religions, and belief systems ascribe varying degrees of significance to different numbers. However, some numbers, like 7, 108, and 18, are often associated with divinity or sacredness in various traditions. An intriguing aspect of the number 8 is its deep connection to karma—the universal law of cause and effect. In numerology, 8 is often seen as the number of karmic justices, where actions (good or bad) come back to you in equal measure.

Did you know that many believe the number of God is 7? In numerology, master numbers 11, 22, and 33 are considered powerful and spiritually significant, often associated with heightened intuition, vision, and the potential for great achievement or service. They have both positive and negative attributes. Triple Master numbers in numerology refer to completeness, perfection, totality. The Trinity of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is 777. Adversely, the Unholy Trinity that apes God is 666. In some Christian numerology, the number 888 is believed to represent Jesus or Christ the Redeemer. 555 is often interpreted as a message of spiritual awakening, transformation, or a call to action, suggesting that significant changes and positive outcomes are on the horizon. 444 symbolizes divine order, stability, God’s sovereignty, and angelic presence or guidance, encouraging trust in God and seeking spiritual guidance. 333 is believed to be connected to angelics and for some Ascended Masters and encourages you to set plans into action and let your personal strength be the guide; to trust yourself and put thought into your choices. 222 is often seen as a sign of balance, harmony, and the encouragement to trust your intuition and the universe, particularly in matters of relationships and new beginnings. 111 is often interpreted as a sign of new beginnings, a call to action, and a message of alignment with your higher self and spiritual purpose, encouraging you to trust the universe and your intuition.

Shamans and shamanic traditions often incorporate numbers and numerology, with specific numbers and patterns holding symbolic or spiritual significance, especially in certain cultures and traditions. In shamanism and Native American spirituality, the number 4 is considered sacred, representing the four directions, seasons, elements, and stages of spiritual evolution. Certain number sequences, like 111, are seen as messages from the spiritual realm, signifying alignment and the connection between the physical and spiritual realms The number 108 is considered sacred in Dharmic religions like Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism.

It must be remembered Numbers bring wonder, amazement and enlightenment. Those who study mathematics at the highest level are somehow compelled to confront the spiritual energies.
