Your reading today had a theme. The trees set the message. Grounded in the Earth, reaching for the Heavens.
I'm following up with a Rune reading. This is the message that came through for you.
Raido (from the Book of Runes)
A Journey
Communication
Union, Reunion
This Rune is concerned with communication, with the attunement of something that has two sides, two elements, and with the ultimate reunion that comes at the end of the journey, when what is above and what is below are untited and of one mind.
Inner worth mounts here, and at such a time you must remember that you are not intended to rely entirely upon your own power, but rather to ask what constitutes right action. Ask through prayer, through addressing your own knowing, the Witness Self, the Teacher Within. Not intent on movement, be content to wait; while you wait, keep on removing resistances. As the obstructions give way, all remorse arising from "trying to make it happen" disappears.
The Journey is toward self-healing, self-change and union. You are concerned here with nothing less than unobstructed, perfect union. But the Union of Heaven and Earth cannot be forced. Regulate any excesses in your life. Material advantages must not weigh heavily on this Journey of the self toward the Self. Stand apart even from like-minded others; the notion of strength in numbers does not apply at this time, for this part of the journey cannot be shared.
Another of the Cycle Runes, Raido represents the soul's journey and has within it the element of Joy, for the end is in sight. No longer burdened by what you've left behind, Heaven above you and the Earth below you unite within you and support you on your way.
A simple prayer for the soul's journey is:
I will to will Thy Will.
And, Surrender (from the Book of Healing)
